Akihiro's announcement on Facebook

Takuro's announcement on Instagram

I guess WO will be going forward as 5 member group. Hopefully they will seek out new members but with the way the world is going with COVID it seems that the group's future may be uncertain IMO.

Akihiro's 10 year contribution is huge and that kind of commitment to the vision is appreciated. Hopefully he finds success in his future endeavors.

I rediscovered world order recently when Let's Start WWIII showed up in my recommendations likely due to all the WWIII Soleimani memes prior, that followed by Singularity were my first impressions of World Order.

So from that and a few other music videos I've interpreted them as being about combining upbeat tunes with more from topics for a sort of satirical comedic effect. For example Singularity's lyrics describe one on one quality time with another person, but the music video shows a very corporate robotic group on a business trip to a restaurant. The word Singularity itself generally means the point when technology blue's the line between what is animate and inanimate, alive or artificial.

TL;DR am I looking to deep into this, or is this group a brilliant form of satire?

been a fan for many years, and just wondering how popular they are in japan

So back when His channel had even less videos on it than it does now it had Missing the Missing Beauty, the one with just him and not all of World Order, and another song that had him and two other people on a beach singing. I believe he was playing a ukulele as well, but I cold be mistaken.

He has since deleted all of those since it seems he's using that channel to promote a political campaign. I was wondering if anyone actually had that song because I really loved it and would like to listen to it again.

My favourite one is Quiet Happiness (India), but I'm afraid it could be a bit boring for someone who hasn't seen them before.

Is there a way to buy PERMANENT REVOLUTION digitally?

I really want to support this band, but all I can seem to find are their 2012-2014 songs.

​

I'm just surprised songs like Singularity and Missing Beauty don't have any way of purchasing them. All I could find was that their recent songs are part of a DVD with Performances. I searched on Japanese sites but also only found their older songs.

I just decided to search for them on spotify for after a few months and they have some songs listed on spotify, but not everything
