Stray Kids have released their sophomore Japanese studio album ‘Giant’, along with a music video for its title track.
The album along with the accompanying music video for its lead single were released on November 13. The record features a total of 10 tracks, including new original Japanese tracks such as ‘Saiyan’ and ‘Christmas Love’, alongside previously released singles such as ‘WHY?’, ‘NIGHT’ and ‘Falling Night’.
In the video for ‘Giant’, Stray Kids are seen in an underground complex where the members are using the soil around them to build what looks like an upscaled ant farm. The band are also seen holding bejewelled eggs, which they collect and gather to complete their base.
The ‘Giant’ album marks Stray Kidss second full-length Japanese album, after they released their first with ‘The Sound’ in February last year. The boyband made their first foray into the Japanese market in 2020 with the release of the ‘SKZ2020’ compilation album.
Stray Kids released their ninth mini-album ‘ATE’ in July. The record was led by the single ‘Chk Chk Boom’, which dropped alongside a music video starring Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman as Marvel’s Deadpool and Wolverine.
They also released accompanying music videos for B-side tracks ‘Mountains’ and ‘JJAM’. Shortly after the album’s release, Stray Kids also unveiled the song ‘Slash’ as part of the official soundtrack for the Deadpool & Wolverine movie.
Stray Kids are currently on the ongoing 2024-2025 ‘dominATE’ world tour, which will feature upcoming stops in the Americas and Europe, to be announced at a later date.
