While his broken kneecap is still in the early stages of recovery, he can’t pack all the orders at once ready for collection by Royal Mail. Seriously, the amount of orders we have for SAKI would probably snap his other knee due to the weight 😅🩼

JPU Records 💿 @jpurecords.com · 25/08/2026

Ok guys, here’s how it’s going to work for SAKI. JPU Tom usually handles all preorders himself (he likes to make sure every order is packed with love and as secure as possible). But! (… continued below 👇)

Deciding how to bring an end to a band that has been together for this long was truly difficult. But after talking it over many times, the four of us eventually came to this conclusion.

JPU Records 💿 @jpurecords.com · 24/08/2026

Over these years, we have traveled throughout Japan and around the world. Through the places we have been able to visit, the people we have met, and the many experiences we could only have had by living our lives as SCANDAL, the four of us feel that we have truly done all that we could together.

JPU Records 💿 @jpurecords.com · 24/08/2026

Our 20-year journey as SCANDAL will reach its final chapter on August 21, 2027.

To everyone who came to the venue, watched the livestream, and celebrated our 20th anniversary with us, we would like to express our deepest gratitude. After this performance, there is something the four of us would like to tell you.

JPU Records 💿 @jpurecords.com · 24/08/2026

The funniest thing I’ve seen when interviewing bands from Japan is one very famous visual kei band changing the styling of the email interview. All questions were now standard weight and their answers were in bold and a few sizes bigger 🤣 Made me giggle as I switched it back.
