HANABIE. Announce Japanese metal force HANABIE. will release a new EP titled HOT TOPIC on Jan. 28, 2026, with a headlining tour of North America to follow in March and April. It’s a chance for the “Harajuku-core” quartet to share its whirlwind rock sound with the world via a collection of songs capturing them at their most heavy, chaotic and catchy to date.
The North American jaunt stands as the band’s most ambitious in the region to date, with 21 shows spread across the United States and Canada. A full list of shows can be seen below. Fans can buy tickets here.
This tour news comes after a successful trip through Europe in the fall, following a year that saw HANABIE. appear at festivals around the world and performance at the Vans Warped Tour in the US. Despite a busy 2025, the group still has one more gig at KNOTFEST 2025 in Mexico this week on Dec. 6, 2026. Live photos from the band’s recent European performances can be seen here.
More details about the HOT TOPIC EP will be released shortly.
