THE ORAL CIGARETTES Presents 'VOICE'

On August 19, 2026, THE ORAL CIGARETTES will launch their newest single, 'VOICE', a medium ballad that is a significant departure from their previous release, 'LIMIT'. This new track resonates with heartfelt emotions, reflecting the band’s ongoing national tour and their chief values. The lyrics resonate deeply with listeners, exploring the themes of imperfection and the beauty that comes with it.

The band’s frontman, Takuya Yamanaka, recently stated, “There is no such thing as a perfect human. I believe there is beauty in imperfection.” This philosophy is a cornerstone of the song, which aims to provide solace to those dealing with their struggles, and inspire them to move forward. Yamanaka mentions that he has faced challenging times himself, and he hopes that his voice can serve as a beacon for others navigating similar shadows.

The launch of 'VOICE' comes on the heels of the powerful single 'LIMIT', released just a month prior, which showcased the band’s energetic EDM influences. In contrast, 'VOICE' embodies a more somber tone yet carries a message of warmth and encouragement, allowing listeners to connect on an emotional level. It’s a dramatic piece likened to a road movie that encapsulates the thoughts and feelings of Yamanaka, immersed in the essence of their ongoing tour.

To celebrate the release, there’s an exciting pre-release campaign for fans. Those who sign up for 'Pre-Add' on Apple Music or 'Pre-Save' on Spotify will not only be the first to experience 'VOICE' but will also receive exclusive merchandise. Attendees at the live shows in Tokyo on July 22 and 23, which are part of their 'Home Sweet Home TOUR 2026', can present their registration confirmation to receive a special 'VOICE' jacket sticker. Additionally, entries through screenshots will be accepted for a chance to win an exclusive original A3 poster featuring the artwork for 'VOICE'.

The 'Home Sweet Home TOUR 2026' kicked off earlier in July, with sold-out shows across various locations, including the Orix Theater in Osaka and the Aichi Prefectural Arts Theater. Over 13 performances are scheduled, with tickets still available for upcoming shows in Tokyo and beyond. Supporters are encouraged to attend and enjoy the live performance of 'VOICE', which promises to be a powerful and uplifting experience.

Fans can find more information about the band and ticketing through their official website and social media channels. With each performance, THE ORAL CIGARETTES continues to assert their place as a vital voice in the music industry, inspiring others to find beauty in their imperfections and strive for growth amidst adversity.
