NAN WITH A MISSION are one of those bands that can get me to check out pretty much any new music they put out, even if the single in question happens to be an anime OP like “Dark Crow” is. Vinland Saga gets the honor of having the wolf masked rockers craft a fairly experimental (by their standards) track for their promotional needs, with the band making use of bagpipes in their composition for the first time to great effect (I’m also Scottish and very bias). B-side “86 Missed Calls” will also likely appeal to fans of the band’s hit “Dead End in Tokyo” as Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy is back to lend both his pen and his vocals to the track. Also featured are the prerequisite new Reiwa era track “Reiwa”, a pleasing enough Ballad featuring singer-songwriter milet and a (American DJ/musician) Slushii remix of “My Hero” from the band’s “Chasing the Horizon” album. The first two tracks are where it’s at for me personally, but a very nice selection of songs overall.
