Hōmura Uta (葬ラ謳 Funeral Song?) is an album released by Mucc on September 6, 2002. It's their second full-length album and the first album to be released by their sublabel Shu, under Danger Crue. The first pressing of the album includes two discs; the second containing two songs and a twenty-five minute comment on the album. The album sold out quickly, and the following month a reissue was released on October 18, this one without the second disc but with the first one enhanced with the music video for the song "Zetsubō". On August 17, 2004, a second reissue was released, including both discs from the first release plus a bonus track on the first one. The 2004 reissue reached number 48 on the Oricon chart.[1]
