The first Japanese pressing will include the first music video for the title track, "Bad D.N.A.", directed by Visual Trap, which has directed all of the videos for DIR EN GREY.

Record Store Day News
HEART - The Sisters Wilson are back with a new album in August, but this Tuesday you can pick up a special heart-shaped red vinyl single, featuring their new song, "WTF" and a special live version of their classic "Magic Man." Welcome back, ladies!
COMING IN AUGUST TO INDIE RECORD STORES:
The HIVES Tarred & Feathered vinyl 7" EP!
Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World soundtrack—on vinyl!
J.P., CHRISSIE & THE FAIRGROUND BOYS - Chrissie just keeps on making us smile here at RSD HQ. This time it's about the new record, FIDELITY!, but also about the story behind it, kind of a really kick-ass rock version of a made-for-tv movie: Bad-ass rocker girl meets scruffy Welsh guy, dares him to write a song, likes the song, likes the boy, boy and girl hole up in a hotel room in Cuba, write an album, form a band, rock out happily ever after. The album actually probably tells the stories better. But until FIDELITY! is released in August, hear some new music on a special indies-only 7", which streets this coming Tuesday. What's on the 7"? A brand new song, "If You Let Me" and "Skinny Love", a Bon Iver cover, recorded live in Chicago.
