It was released on April 25, 2018 in five editions: CD only, two music video editions, and two live concert editions with DVD or Blu-ray discs. The live concert editions feature the Wagakki Band Premium Symphonic Night ~ Live & Orchestra ~ in Osaka-jō Hall show. In addition, a mu-mo Shop exclusive box set was released, featuring an instrumental CD, both music video and concert DVDs and Blu-ray discs.[1][2][3]

The album includes the song "Yukikage-Boushi", which was used by used car dealership chain Gulliver for their 2018 New Year sale commercial featuring the band.[4] "Sasameyuki" was used as the ending theme of the anime TV series Holmes of Kyoto.[5]
