UA releases new single in May

UA is set to release a new single, titled "Oogon no Midori/Love scenes", on May 5, so says Bounce.com. "Oogon no Midori" has been described as "acid pop" (huh?), while "Love scenes" is reminiscent of her old single "Milk Tea".

CD Japan e-mailed me an announcement a few days back mentioning one of the coupling tracks was written by Hatori Miho of Cibo Matto.

For the last two albums, UA hasn’t really done anything appropriate for a singles format. Does this mean a return to more melodic terrain? As challenging and daring as her work has been lately, something tuneful would be a welcome direction.
