AKB48 to release their first album in April!

It’s just been announced that AKB48 will be releasing their first full original album on April 6th!

A total of sixteen songs will be featured in the currently untitled album, including the group’s huge hits “Ponytail to Shushu”, “Heavy Rotation”, “Beginner”, and “Chance no Junban”. The album will be available in two different versions: a limited ‘CD+DVD’ version and a regular ‘CD-DVD’ version. The limited edition is a special box set that comes with an exclusive 100-page photobook, a random collectible card featuring one of the girls, and an application for a special lottery. Albums purchased at any of the theater performances will include a ticket to a handshake event and a photographing session with the girls.


The DVD will also contain a few special goodies for fans – dance versions of the four songs mentioned above will be included alongside their PVs.
