URBANGARDE frontman Temma Matsunaga has released the music video for “Love Harassment” from his upcoming self-titled solo album, due for release July 26.

In the video, chief provocateur Matsunaga dons a tie that reads “SEX IS HEAVEN” as he struts towards the camera in this black and white treatment. As the video progresses, he slowly frees himself of the constraints of his suit while smoking a cigarette.

Check out the MV below!

In addition to his duties as URBANGARDE’s co-lead singer, Matsunaga is the chief songwriter of the group and supervises the band’s artwork as well as the mind-blowing visual style of their stage shows and music videos.

Outside of URBANGARDE, Matsunaga stays busy. He is an acclaimed novelist, poet, and actor. His first book, Jisatsushatachi (“Selfie People”) was published in 2015, followed by Shoujo ka, shousetsu ka (“Girl, or novel?”) in 2016, which was endorsed by Jun Itarihoba of Golden Bomber.

Matsunaga has also collaborated with popular Japanese photographer Yuki Aoyama, known internationally for his provocative “Schoolgirl Complex” photobook series, for a special collection of photos and poems titled “Schoolgirl Trauma”. Last year, Matsunaga starred alongside Hikari Mitsushima (Gomen ne Seishun!, Moteki, Woman) in an episode of NHK BS Premium’s “Edogawa Rampo Tanpenshu”, an anthology series featuring the works of noted Japanese mystery writer Edogawa Rampo.
