XG Announces the Release of First Mini-Album NEW DNA for September

After many successful singles, the global pop phenomenon returns with a manifest that reinforces the septet’s innovative DNA

The girl group XG finally announced their comeback on September 27 with the long-awaited mini-album NEW DNA. The seven members prepared the ground for the release of the album with “GRL GVNG,” the video clip that brings high-quality cinematography and performances, amazed fans, and gave another record for the group: they became the first Japanese artists to reach the top of the Billboard’s Hot Trending Songs chart in the United States. 

The CD BOX of NEW DNA is a manifest of the innovation that XG represents, bringing to young people artists who talk directly to their generation and desires and who do not bend to conventions and are not stopped by barriers. The album will be released in two versions “X Ver.” and “G Ver.,” each made with graphic artwork that remotes to cell divisions and represents the six tracks. NEW DNA starts a new era for the septet and reflects XG’s evolution. The pre-sale of the CD BOX opened on July 25.

The “X Ver.” exalts the group’s mysterious side and unique worldview. When opening the purple box, fans will be captivated by an artwork reverberating XG’s DNA with a fantastic hologram. The black and silver shades bring sophistication. On the other hand, the “G Ver.” incorporates the group’s refreshing philosophy. By opening the white in opaque shade cover, the NEW DNA is revealed in a perfect metallic paper. More details about the “G Ver.” will be released soon, and fans can expect another reflection of XG’s dynamic and authentic style. 

Until now, all the CD singles released by XG were available in exclusive stores, selling out all the copies. However, the NEW DNA album is ready for wider distribution and, besides that, fans who purchase their copies on the pre-sale will have countless benefits.

Starting the new era, the concept video “HESONOO The NEW DNA” was released, reflecting XG’s origins. Fans worldwide can expect an impactful novelty and thunderous songs for NEW DNA, scheduled to be released on September 27, in CD BOX and on the main digital platforms.

XG’s newest mini-album incorporates the septet’s declaration to be a new lineage, without limits and barriers. With graphic artwork representing cell divisions, it features the album's six songs, which signify the group's evolution. NEW DNA is a visual and sonic manifesto that showcases the heart of XG's artistic journey.
