Petit Brabancon Launch 5-Month Bootleg Series with Unreleased Tracks

Petit Brabancon Launch 5-Month Bootleg Series with Unreleased Tracks

Petit Brabancon are taking fans deeper into their live world with an ambitious five-month bootleg series, starting this August. The supergroup—featuring 京 (DIR EN GREY / vocals), yukihiro (L’Arc-en-Ciel / drums), ミヤ (MUCC / guitar), antz (Tokyo Shoegazer / guitar), and 高松浩史 (The Novembers / bass)—will release consecutive volumes documenting their Nagoya performance from the “If You Just Stare Then Headbang or Die” tour in March 2026.

What sets this series apart is its commitment to capturing the raw energy of live performance. Each volume features video shot alongside a two-channel PA mix—the kind of authentic bootleg audio that preserves every moment of onstage chaos. Better yet, several tracks have never been officially released, making these drops essential listening for collectors and dedicated fans.

All five volumes will contain completely different setlists, so you’re not getting filler repeats across the series. Beyond the audio and visual content, each purchase grants access to member-curated merchandise, exclusive photographs, and early entry into the raffle for next tour tickets. Videos stream online, while audio is available as MP3 downloads for offline listening.

Vol. 1 Details

The first installment drops with three tracks: “dub driving,” “OBEY,” and the previously unreleased “EVIL DEAD 4.” Bassist 高松浩史 curates the merchandise for this volume, which includes an exclusive collaboration with TECH21—makers of the renowned SansAmp instrument effects line. This isn’t generic tour merch; it’s a genuine partnership between working musicians and pro-audio gear specialists.

Early bird pricing is ¥11,000 (approximately $75 USD) and preorders are live through August 24. Head to the official Petit Brabancon site to secure yours before stock moves on, and stay tuned for the remaining four volumes rolling out over the coming months.
