aikuruideimasu—known affectionately as “Aicle”—have some exciting projects in the works. On October 18, the band will play at Tsukicon in Finland. This will mark Aicle’s first foray into overseas concerts. And what a choice of venue to debut overseas—Tsukicon is the largest Japanese music and fashion convention in Northern Europe. Aicle will be joining the guest list alongside a number of well known acts at the convention—SCREW, Dio – distraught overlord, vistlip, and DJ SiSeN.

Upon returning to Japan, Aicle have a busy event schedule planned for the rest of the year. On December 16, the single release Psycho x Letter (サイコ×レタ ) will be available in two types: the first type includes a third song for ¥1,575 ($18), and the second includes two tracks and a DVD featuring a music video for ¥2,100 ($23). The original release will come with one out of twenty trading cards, divvied up at random.

Just three days later, the band will be holding the first of two consecutive oneman lives—Massive Thanksgiving to the Fans (お客様大感謝祭/okyakusama daikanshasai)—on the 19 and 20 at Takadanobaba AREA.

As for next year, Aicle have scheduled a Tokyo/Nagoya/Osaka oneman tour for March 23, 25, and April 2. Details will be released at a later date.
