It combines the sophistication of British pop with the glamour that the Japanese market demands.

Following the success of their debut single "Psychic Magic," this mini-album was compiled for the Japanese market. Its fusion of catchy melodies and cutting-edge synth pop at the time symbolizes the idol-inspired Western music boom of the 1980s.

This album captures the band's meteoric rise in 1985, when they garnered enthusiastic support, especially among Japanese teenagers, as a continuation of the "New Romantic" movement following in the footsteps of Duran Duran and Culture Club. Their sound, woven with light synthesizer riffs and sweet vocals, quickly spread through discos and radio at the time. Their strategy of emphasizing their handsome looks and catchy melodies was the catalyst behind their success, reaching No. 14 on the Oricon charts.
