JAPANESE POP-ROCK ICON LiSA TEAMS WITH FELIX OF STRAY KIDS FOR NEW SONG
“ReawakeR (feat. Felix of Stray Kids)”
OPENING THEME TO SOLO LEVELING SEASON 2 -ARISE FROM THE SHADOW-
AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE NOW FROM MILAN RECORDS
NEW YORK, NY (January 6, 2024) – J-Pop's Rock Heroine LiSA today debuts a new song in collaboration with Felix of Stray Kids entitled “ReawakeR (feat. Felix of Stray Kids)," which serves as the opening theme for the newly debuted second season of the hit anime series Solo Leveling Season 2 -Arise from the Shadow-. Marking LiSA's second collaboration with Felix following their hit track “Social Path,” “ReawakeR” was composed by iconic anime musician Hiroyuki Sawano, who combines rock instrumentation with dance music synths under Felix's deep rap vocals and LiSA's pop-rock chorus to create an intensely dynamic opening theme song.
The track's title "ReawakeR" is a reference to the protagonist of Solo Leveling, who experiences a "re-awakening" and gains overwhelming power, while its lyrics reference the Ring of Gyges, a mythological artifact in the anime series that grants invisibility and ultimate power, highlighting the protagonist's journey of balancing god-like strength with justice – ENGLISH LYRICS HERE.
ABOUT LiSA
Dubbed as J-Pop's “Rock Heroine,” LiSA is a singer from Japan who is breaking down genre and language barriers with her powerful live performances and catchy melodies. Having gained prominence through the anime series Angel Beats! in 2010, she has since sung theme songs for other fan-favorite titles such as Fate/Zero, the Sword Art Online series and movie, My Hero Academia and more. She sang theme songs for the world-popular anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba-, including songs ‘Gurenge’ for the TV series and ‘homura’ for the anime film. Both songs went viral, with ‘homura’ ranking 7th in Apple Music's Top 100: Global chart, the highest record ever for a Japanese artist, 8th on Billboard's Global 200 chart, 2nd on Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts, and numerous music charts in Japan and all around the world.
LiSA's ability to draw in audiences with her voice and stage persona has earned her fans not only among anime lovers, but across all genres, and she is the only singer of her kind to headline both anime and rock festivals. In addition to instantly selling out legendary venues in Japan such as the Nippon Budokan and Saitama Super Arena, LiSA receives strong support from fans outside of Japan, having performed in the U.S., Mexico, China, Southeast Asia, and completing her own solo tour across Asia.
