Stray Kids to Release Japanese Mini Album 'Hollow' with Title Track of the Same Name

Stray Kids will release their third Japanese mini album, 'Hollow,' and its title track of the same name on June 18th.

On April 25th, Stray Kids unveiled the tracklist for their Japanese mini album 'Hollow' through their official Japanese social media channels. The album will feature a total of five tracks, including the title track 'Hollow,' along with 'Parade,' 'Never Alone,' 'just a little,' and '宿命' (Shukmei).

This album is particularly special as it marks the first time Stray Kids has comprised an entire album with original Japanese songs since their debut in Japan. Once again, the group’s in-house production team 3RACHA – consisting of Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han – participated in the songwriting and composition of all tracks, including the title track 'Hollow,' fully showcasing Stray Kids’ musicality as a ‘self-producing group.’

The new release is Stray Kids’ first Japanese mini album in approximately three years since 'CIRCUS' in June 2022, and their first local release following their 5th anniversary of their official Japanese debut on March 18th. Stray Kids has consistently gained popularity, topping major charts such as Oricon, Billboard Japan, and Tower Records with various albums since their Japanese debut. They are expected to further solidify their presence as a ‘global top artist’ with this new album.

Prior to the comeback, Stray Kids will hold a total of four solo concerts at Shizuoka Stadium Ecopa as part of their world tour 'Stray Kids World Tour <dominATE>' on May 10th-11th and 17th-18th. Following their successful solo concerts at Tokyo Dome and Kyocera Dome Osaka last year, which drew over 315,000 attendees, the group will be entering their first Japanese stadium performance venue, delivering their best stage as ‘global stadium artists.’
