Looking for something new for the weekend? XG released the single DEPENDS on November 6, with S.A.D alongside the title track. The official DEPENDS music video also arrived that day.
XGALX describes DEPENDS as a song about continuing forward without having every answer. The cover gives that sense of searching a visual companion: the two track titles appear as letters on a keypad.
The group photo offers another set of details to notice. Red, yellow and blue shirts sit alongside ties with different widths, patterns and knots. Each member brings a different combination to the shared styling idea.
The release also has a small design detour. Art-directed by HIROCK, the official VIDEO Tape Box Tee pairs a T-shirt with a VHS-style box. A 13-inch laptop sleeve takes its design cues from the cereal packaging in the music video’s supermarket.
According to the official announcement, general merchandise sales are scheduled for November 9 at noon JST/KST (UTC+9). ALPHAZ early access runs from November 6 at 6 p.m. to November 9 at 10 a.m. in the same time zone. Shipping is planned from late December onward.
