Just looked at the SONY page. Based off of Google Translate, I'm guessing that the B-side is SCANDAL IN THE HOUSE. They might have written it themselves, but I'm not sure. From Translate, it said for the members were in charge of the lead vocals for the first time...and the might not be playing instruments...? I don't know, but that's the only thing I can tell. My Japanese isn't great, so...I might not be right. It could be a dancing number and the limited edition (for the album) has a dancing number for this song...I think. Either way, that song is possibly the B-side. I don't know. Could someone maybe double check this information? I'm kind of curious.

Hate to say it... But CAPSULE is actually an electronic-pop/pop duo, and after composing songs for Kyary and PERFUME, I feel like I'm part of the few that think that this will be a poppy song. Well, I could be wrong, and frankly, I want to be wrong... I do have to admit though, OVER DRIVE is a super badass name!

That promo pic though... .love.

I feel the same, although who knows - maybe he's trying to do something different.

The B-side is almost definitely going to be pop, though... I'm reading the same thing, that for the first time, they will not be playing any instruments. It is possible Google Translate is wrong, though; it often is on Japanese translations.

@Af8!: That's a pretty confusing sentence, actually haha. Here's what I gather from it:

「SCANDAL IN THE HOUSE」 is a dance number in which all of the members have lead vocals in and SCANDAL's first ever non-musical performance step recording.

Firstly, yay!

Secondly, now now boys and girls, easy on the speculation now. As we all know, we never really know what the girls will come out with every release so try not to guess what kind of song it is based on the title.

The fastest and shortest way to disappointment is expecting something and getting some other thing and with the girls, it is possible that this could happen. With SCANDAL, you can never really tell

The producer of the single has worked with Perfume and Kyary Pamyu Pamyu so don't be shocked in case the new single has some electro pop elements. Or it might not have them at all. You can never tell with SCANDAL.

We'll find out later today, I guess.

Edit: The B-side is probably going to be quite poppy, it might even be a full on electro number. It's fine with me though, I quite like electro.

@thoseguiltyeyes

Ah, thanks for translating that! So, it definitely seems like I'm going to enjoy this single to the max. All the members will be singing lead vocals, and (although I love instrument SCANDAL) will be dancing. And OVER-DRIVE seems like a cool title, whether it's pop or not.

So only 2 editions for that single, not 3 (Regular, A and B)?

If the only bonus is the PV of Kimi to Mirai I might pass and take the regular. Not sure yet.

I recently received today the "kagen no Tsuki"
and you are with new single
Great

Can't wait for this new single though it's quite fast after releasing Kagen no Tsuki .....toj. 

Wonder how the new song will sound like ~

I know most ppl are not going to be very excited about a dance/non-instrumental piece from SCANDAL, but I'm very much looking forward to it :D

Our SCANDAL keeps growing~

Just searched about Yasutaka Nakata from Wikipedia and this what I found.
 
"Genres : Shibuya-kei, Techno, electronic dance, new wave, electronica, electro house, complextro. "
 
So, I don't think you should expect a rock song. I hope am wrong, though.


EDIT: I'm happy I was wrong. It's not electronic at all.

OVERDRIVE preview!  Song is not electronic thank goodness, more sounding like a light rock number.  It would make a nice anime intro haha.

Rina sings! I love this song so far! It's sounds so cool,with all the girls singing. Can't wait for a full release! It's not too pop-ish, and has a nice sound to it, something that can make you feel relaxed and excited at the same time.

OMG, just heard the preview. Thanks for the download link, dunrite! ^^
All I can say is that from the preview, I really like it and am really psyched for it. I like the vibe. Can't wait for the full version. 

Here's a preview (:

The preview sounds amazing!!! It has that distinct style and sound that only Scandal has and I love it! September can't arrive fast enough. 
And who knows how amazing what the PV is gonna be like....dies.

I already heard the preview! And it sounds really cool! .wow. 
And... maybe SCANDAL in the house (based on the description) is a kind of Dobondobondo ft. Almond Crush thingy? xD it sounds like hip hop, not sure why (I mean the name) 

Damn, OVER DRIVE sounds wonderful (´∀`)

So the outfits revealed today were for STANDARD, huh~
I bet they'll use them in the PV though.
I'm still curious about the outfits for this single though haha

And it appears this single's covers will be that weird drawing xD

Just heard the preview and it is coooool!not the super rock one but then this one can save me from getting bored everytime I'll drive   hopefully the full PV will be released soon

Thank you!

Just heard it. It's that sort of head bobbing soft rock with a kind of an end-of-summer vibe to it, easy on the ears, slight melancholic feel. Makes for good driving music.

Approved.

Great song :cheer: 
Btw, are we gonna have another banner contest for this Over Drive singe too?  

What wonderful news to wake up to. I had no idea they were already releasing a 17th single and a 5th album.

SCANDAL never keeps its fans waiting. Lovin' the promo pics for OVER DRIVE
