E.G. Crazy (stylized as E.G. CRAZY) is a double album by Japanese musical unit E-girls, which also serves as their fourth studio release. It was distributed on January 3, 2016 for streaming through Japan's AWA services, and released on January 18, 2017 release via Rhythm Zone and Avex Music Creative Inc. in five physical editions and for digital consumption. Additionally, it will be their first album without ex-vocalists and performers Chiharu Muto, Kyoka Ichiki and Erie Abe, with singing and disc jockey credits to the latter as a service to her sub-group Dream.

E.G. Crazy works as a concept album, which segregates the discs into two themes; the first being E.G. Pop, and the latter having a E.G. Cool vibe; furthermore, selected tracks represent a new theme Japanese Neo Girls, which executes international cultures through a Japanese woman's perspective. Each disc features 12 tracks, all of which are a mixture of previous singles, cover songs, B-sides and new original recordings. Musically, it is a J-pop collection which incorporates various elements of electronic dance music, and is solely produced by Exile Hiro.

Upon its release, E.G. Crazy received positive reviews from music critics, who praised the idea of a double packaged release, along with its production and sound. Commercially, it experienced success in Japan, reaching the top spot on the Oricon Albums Chart and Billboard charts. In order to promote the record, E-girls conducted a series of live performances, radio and television appearances, and interviews throughout the region. The record also spawned six original singles: "Anniversary!!", "Dance Dance Dance", "Merry x Merry Xmas", "E.G. Summer Rider", "Pink Champagne" and "Go! Go! Let's Go!".

Background and concept

After the release of the girls' third studio album E.G. Time (2014),[1] LDH—the groups management—announced a new line-up system titled the E-girls Pyramid, which showed each member in the band and their respective sub-groups: Dream, Flower, and Happiness.[2] With that said, six of the 26-members were moved out of E-girls and into either the yet-to-debut groups Rabbits and Bunnies for further training; Yuzuna Takebe, the youngest singer in E-girls, was removed from the line-up and placed in Rabbits.[3] With the new line-up set, E-girls started recording new material for their new album by promoting the single "Anniversary!!" (May 2015).[4] Recording sessions spanned between 2014 and late 2016, with them releasing "Dance Dance Dance" as the following single from "Anniversary!!".[5] Subsequently, they continued recording new material and released "Merry x Merry Xmas" and "Dance With Me Now!", which both appeared on the girls' greatest hits album E.G. Smile: E-girls Best (2016).[6][7] In December 2015, Takebe was added back into E-girls as a performer for the two latter tracks and was promoted to vocalists the following year. With that said, the material on E.G. Crazy were recorded by all remaining vocalists: Shizuka, Aya and Ami from Dream, Reina Washio from Flower, and Karen Fujii and Ruri Kawamoto from Happiness.

E.G. Crazy is a double album that also incorporates a conceptual approach; certain material is placed into two discs, the first being E.G. Pop and the second having a E.G. Cool vibe.[8] According to their management LDH, E.G. Pop promotes the groups more "fun", "pop[pier]" and "cute" approach whilst E.G. Cool showcases a more "sexy", "edgier" and "hot" sound.[9] Additionally, E.G. Crazy is the band's first record without vocalist Chiharu Muto and singer/performer Kyoka Ichiki, both whom left E-girls and their sub-group Flower in October 2014 and 2015, respectively.[upper-alpha 1] It is also their first album to not feature Dream member Erie Abe, who announced her retirement from both groups and the entertainment industry in October 2016; Abe sung the album tracks "Boom Boom Christmas" and "Express: Do Your Dance", but was credited through the Dream namesake. Her final appearance with E-girls was during the promotional photoshoot for their single "Go! Go! Let's Go!" (November 2016), and her promise of retirement commenced on December 31 that same year.[11]

Release

E.G. Crazy premiered through AWA Streaming Services on January 3, 2017.[53] Additionally, the album was released on January 18, 2017 via Rhythm Zone and Avex Music Creative Inc. in five physical editions and for digital consumption.[11][54] All formats included the 24 tracks, but halved into two discs. The bonus DVD and Blu-ray packaging comes with the music videos from their single "Anniversary!!" to "All Day Long Lady".[21][22] Furthermore, a triple DVD/Blu-ray package featured the music videos on one disc, a second DVD including live performances from their 2016 E.G. Smile tour at Saitama Super Arena, and an encore section of the tour and bonus documentary film on the third.[55][56] The packaging for E.G. Crazy was photographed by Hirohisa Nakano, and features the members circulated around three large neon-lit circles at random; members Shizuka, Aya, Ami, Kaede, Karen and Shuuka Fujii, Reina Washio and Harumi Sato are all situated in front of the set instead of around the circles.[55]

According to the group's leader Aya, the placement of each member around the shapes emphasize a "vortex" of both "enthusiasm" and "crazy" feelings, two traits that were "expressed" for the record's release, the photo shoot, and subsequently the inspiration towards the title.[57] Additionally, she believed that the material on the record expressed a variety of "crazy" and "frenzy" appeals to Japanese culture, and encouraged both Japanese and international audiences to listen to it.[57] The 2CD, and DVD/Blu-ray editions are packaged in a double disc jewelcase, which features two flyers and an obi.[11] As for the triple DVD/blu-ray sets, they come in a large box packaging; the music discs are placed in a thin DVD casing, while the live releases are in more thicker cases.[55][56] In addition to the first-press pre-orders, Rhythm Zone published limited edition photo albums that come with 120 pages of the album's photo shoot, and shots from their E.G. Smile concert tour.[58]

Reception

According to Nielsen SoundScan Japan, E.G. Crazy sold over an estimated 61,000 units between January 16 and 18, effectively their fastest-selling record and nearly doubled the results of Hubby Groove by Inaba / Salas, which scored second place with 37,000 sales.[59] Nevertheless, it experienced success in Japan. It debuted at number one on the daily Oricon Albums Chart with 45,088 copies, making it their highest sales for a studio album, and continuing the band's chart-topping streak.[60] It stayed in the same position the next day with sales of 21,388 copies.[61] However, eight days later, it slipped to number 14.[62] Based on its eight-day availability, E.G. Crazy became the band's fourth studio album to top the weekly Oricon chart. Additionally, it shifted over 93,000 units, marking it their highest-first week sales for a studio release since Colorful Pop (2014), which sold over 89,000 copies.[63] Subsequently, the record opened at number six on the Oricon Digital Chart with 1,624 downloads.[64]

Moreover, E.G. Crazy entered the top spot of the Hot Albums and Sales chart, published by Billboard, with 89,475 copies in its first week.[upper-alpha 3] This became the band's fourth consecutive record to top the chart, and exceeded Hubby Groove by Inaba / Salas with over 30,000 units.[67] According to Billboard executives, the record was the highest-selling album based on physical consumption, the sixth highest in digital sales, and was the eighth most searched album that week, effectively giving it the lead position through all formats.[65] However, they predicted that sales through all formats would "settle down" for the following week.[65]

Notes

  1. ↑ Kyoka Ichiki appeared during the promotional photoshoot for the single "Anniversary!!", but was not credited as a vocalist or performer.[10]
  2. ↑ "Anniversary!!", "Dance Dance Dance", "Merry x Merry Xmas", and "Dance With Me Now!" were included on their greatest hits album E.G. Smile: E-girls Best in 2016. However, the liner notes and packaging sticker refer the first three songs, alongside "E.G. Summer Rider", "Pink Champagne" and "Go! Go! Let's Go!" as singles from E.G. Crazy (2017).[11]
  3. ↑ Billboard Japan had accumulated album sales based on a seven-day duration between specific retail companies, as calculated by GfK Entertainment Charts in Japan.[65] However, Oricon's sales were tallied between January 16—two days prior to the album's official release—and 25 January, a nine day duration. This is because the record was released a day prior to the Oricon's chart switching over for its new week of sales and peak positions.[66]
  4. 1 2 3 4 5 Members Aya, Erie Abe, Ruri Kawamoto, Miyuu, and Manami Shigetome were not featured in the line-up for singles "Anniversary!! and "Dance Dance Dance" for unknown reasons. Member Yuzuna Takebe was not featured in these two singles, and "Merry x Merry Xmas".
  5. ↑ Erie Abe featured as a disc jockey on "Merry x Merry Xmas" and "Dance With Me Now!", the latter track as her final appearance, and was included in promotional photoshoots for each single. She provided vocals on selective tracks, but was only credited because she was a member of Dream with Shizuka, Aya and Ami.
