    A bell rings to welcome the arrival of spring.
    The parade moves forward toward the sound.

    An ensemble centered on acoustic instruments traces the changing seasons—this is Wool Strings’ fourth full-length album, and the first solo release in 11 years.

    The production of this album progressed intermittently over a decade, beginning with the recording of sleeping sun in 2015. The warm, picture-book-like artwork was created by illustrator Natsuki Suyama, and the world of bells gradually took shape inspired by this artwork.

    Following the collaboration on the EP psukhe with actor Ryoka Neya in 2024, she participates on this album with vocals and spoken-word contributions. A cassette tape version of the album was first released during their joint live performance at Sangenjaya Orbit in February 2025, limited to 50 copies.

    The final track featuring Ryoka Neya, shepku, is included exclusively on the cassette tape version.

  • Cassette + Digital Album

    This set includes Wool Strings’ fourth album bells on cassette tape and the bells blend coffee, roasted to evoke the world of the album.

    The coffee beans are roasted and blended by Ryohei Ameda of Wool Strings, who also runs the home-roasted coffee brand Feather Village Coffee.

    bells blend comes as 100g of whole roasted beans. The blend combines Ethiopian and Costa Rican beans, resulting in a medium roast with a bright, fruity sweetness, a light and smooth mouthfeel, and a clear, transparent flavor.

    Please note that this set will be shipped from Japan via International ePacket Light, so delivery may take several weeks.

    Includes unlimited streaming of bells via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
