Tokyo’s alt-pop trio Chilli Beans. is back—and they’re not holding anything back this time. With the release of their fifth digital EP the outside wind, the band brings an emotional whirlwind of music that’s raw, fearless, and packed with their signature style: a fusion of alt-pop, funk, rock, and emotion that doesn’t care for rules.
The buildup to this release has been anything but quiet. First came “tragedy,” a dark and gripping track written for the 2025 Mode Gakuen TV campaign. It pulled listeners into a more introspective space—lyrically intense, musically haunting. Then came “pain,” released on June 4. It was cathartic and vulnerable, a song that quickly caught fire on social media for its honest message and standout vocals.
But the outside wind isn’t all about heaviness. This EP shifts gears in the best way. Enter “pineapple!”—a funky, upbeat summer anthem that flips the mood with unexpected charm. It’s light, it’s catchy, and it proves that Chilli Beans. knows how to balance emotional depth with pure, danceable joy.
Another standout track, “just try it,” slows things down again, encouraging listeners to move forward despite fear or uncertainty. Whether you’re in your feels or just looking for something fresh to blast on a summer drive, this EP covers it all.
What makes the outside wind so special is its emotional range. It doesn’t stick to one lane—because life doesn’t either. Chilli Beans. isn’t just creating music to listen to; they’re making music you can live through.
For fans of music that actually means something—and sounds amazing while doing it—this EP is a must-listen.
