Overview

Hōmura Uta was released on September 6, 2002, as the first album by Mucc's record label Shu, a sublabel of Danger Crue. The album cover was illustrated by manga artist Junji Ito.[1] The first pressing includes two discs; the second of which contains two additional songs and a 24-minute comment on the album. Hōmura Uta sold out quickly, and the following month a reissue was released on October 18, without the second disc but with the first one enhanced with the music video for the song "Zetsubō". On August 17, 2004, a second reissue was released, including both discs from the first release, plus a bonus track on the first one.
