Comedy/folk duo HONEBONE is releasing their 4th album, Shizuka ni Shiro on November 15th! Translating to “Be Quiet” or “Shut up”, the released song list with 8 titles promises to be as tongue-in-cheek as their previous albums.

First-press bonuses are available at different shops: those who get the album at Tower Records or HMV, for instance, can get an extra song, while other shops will carry a sticker as the bonus.
