ATARASHII GAKKO! announce their fourth studio album, From Tokyo with Love,set for release on July 24, 2026 via 88rising.

Available to pre-order HERE, the 10-track genre-bending full-length spans everything from funk, synth-pop, rock, and high-energy anthems, encompassing crowd-moving moments with deeply personal ones. Written by the four-piece, From Tokyo with Love was built around the distinct voices and personalities of SUZUKA, KANON, MIZYU, and RIN. These collections of songs make a definitive statement that ATARASHII GAKKO! are four strong-minded creative individuals, each with their own voice, evolving together without compromise.

Having taken the world's festival stages and venues by storm following the release of their 2024 critically acclaimed album AG! Calling, which featured the mind-bending techno-laced “Tokyo Calling” (watch their Jimmy Kimmel Live! performance HERE), ATARASHII GAKKO! set their sights on bigger stages, audiences, and bolder artistic statements with From Tokyo with Love, the result of ten years of touring, traveling, and absorbing cultures from around the world lands — delivered with love from the city that made them.

"Carrying the energy we've felt all over the world — through AG! Calling and our 10th anniversary — we're ready to take on even bigger stages.” ATARASHII GAKKO! share. “From Tokyo with Love is our new album, delivered with sincerity from Tokyo, the city where it all started for us. We pushed ourselves, questioned ourselves, and packed everything we are right now into these 10 tracks — four of us, four different ways, all in one.” The band concludes, “we can't wait to keep growing, keep challenging ourselves, and keep meeting new people around the world with this album."

Settings the tone with the album’s title, the band make a declaration that "love" is not romance, but “Magokoro” — a Japanese concept meaning wholehearted sincerity. It is ATARASHII GAKKO!'s offering to the world, delivered with the confidence of a group that has spent ten years earning their place on the global stage. Tokyo, their hometown, is the album's central metaphor: a city with deep history and authentic culture that has absorbed influences from around the world and transformed them into something entirely its own. ATARASHII GAKKO! have done the same — throwing themselves into cultures near and far, and making it their own.

The band also shared a glimpse of what’s to come today with a snippet of their forthcoming single “Oi AG!,” which will be available to stream on July 10. Starting on July 16, ATARASHII GAKKO! will be bringing their stellar signature live shows to stages across Europe, the United Kingdom, North and South America this summer, fall and winter.
