Earlier this year, KOHH announced his retirement. At the time of his announcement, he also spoke of his final release. That release, the album “worst -Complete Box-“, is out April 29.
As the title suggests, the album is a box set, containing a CD and a Blu-ray. The CD contains 15 new songs, including collaborations with Skrillex and Shima Ryohei of Dresscodes.
The Blu-ray that comes with “worst -Complete Box-” features the concert at LINE CUBE SHIBUYA at which KOHH announced his retirement. The concert featured three different sets, with KOHH backed by a band, a DJ, and a strings section over the course of the sets.
A trailer for the Blu-ray has been released. It can be found below, along with more information on KOHH’s final release!
