Catch me if you can?

The first single from the, then, upcoming album HIGH TO LOW ELECTRO. It was issued on CD and as a CD/DVD release. Both came with an obi and both editions had a different sleeve, although the differences are very minimal.

The version of たわいないトワイライト on this single was mixed slightly different when compared to the album version, i.e. some effects were sometimes used on the vocals which are not present in the final album mix.

アリガト seems to be a favorite within the band. It was initially released as a demo in 2000 and then again re-recorded in 2008 for the album COLLECTION 2.

SINGLE TOP Religion

Released:

1999-07-26

Comments:

SINGLE TOP Religion was メトロノーム's first commercial release in the form of a 3" CD-single. It comes in a thin card sleeve with two songs.

The leading song ミホトケ was initially released on a demo cassette called 8bitガールズ　ブラボー about five months earlier. The second song made its debut on this release. Both songs have not re-appeared on any other releases.

This is a pretty rare release these days, fetching high prices when sold.

Tracklisting:

1. ミホトケ
2. アウト・サイドローム
