Ae! group radiates camaraderie, a bond that’s impossible to miss in their performances. This connection fuels their energy on stage and in their music videos, where they seamlessly draw strength and inspiration from one another, creating an electrifying synergy that captivates audiences. Their newest music video, ｢Hello｣—the first pre-release track from their debut album D.N.A.—showcases this dynamic perfectly.

Starting softer than their previous releases, with delicate strings and acoustics, ｢Hello｣ opens with each member facing individual struggles, grappling with stress and anxiety. The story shifts as the track builds, layering guitars and heavier beats. The group comes together, their unity bringing light and happiness back into their world. Smiles return, colors brighten, and joy reigns. For Ae! group, togetherness makes everything right again.

What stands out in this video is its subtlety. Like the song, the tones and visuals are softer, presenting the members in a more intimate, jam-session style rather than their usual high-energy dance routines. It’s relaxed and chill, yet it doesn’t compromise the group’s signature rock-and-roll energy. Seiya Suezawa’s vocal performance shines with newfound intensity, perfectly complementing the song’s evolving mood.

The physical disc version of D.N.A. drops on February 18 and will be available wherever Japanese CDs are sold, including CD JAPAN. Fans can look forward to additional songs and exclusive behind-the-scenes video content across four unique formats.

There’s plenty more Ae! group on the way, so…
