Code ; 9021

Code ; 9021 is HAGANE’s first full-length album and a major expansion of the band’s melodic-metal identity. It offers more than fast, uplifting songs: heavy riffs, technical guitar exchanges and fantasy-like atmosphere turn the EP-era appeal into a broader narrative. “Fly Infinitely,” “GunRock” and “BlackCult” highlight both brightness and aggression, while “Undersea Paranolia” and “Sword Of Judgement” add drama and weight and playful cuts like “GoGoKart” and “Train” vary the mood. The choruses stay accessible, yet the album changes tempo and color from song to song with clear intention, holding its density through to the closing “ZERO.” Built on ornate twin guitars and transparent vocals, it shows HAGANE not simply as a girls-metal act, but as a melodic-metal band with careful arrangement — a key record that already hints at the leap to come.
