Album Notes & Community Reviews

'IDOL is DEAD' was the major-label debut of BiS, the 'Brand-new Idol Society' formed around Pour Lui, and it re-recorded the group's independent material 'nerve', 'My Ixxx' and 'primal.' alongside a shoegaze arrangement of Shinichi Osawa's 'Our Song'. Produced by Kenta Matsukuma and JxSxK, it was the only full-length album by the five-member quintet line-up, three of whose members graduated shortly afterwards.
