muque releases second album GLHF, a 10-track indie-pop project blending global influences, gaming energy, and new material alongside an ongoing international tour.
muque has officially dropped their second full-length album, GLHF on April 15, marking a new phase for the rising three-piece. Short for “Good Luck, Have Fun,” the project leans into gaming culture as both concept and momentum, framing the album as a starting point rather than a follow-up.
Built as a 10-track release, GLHF combines previously released songs with new material that expands the band’s sound. Tracks like “Good Luck, Have Fun,” “The 1,” “Dancing in my bad life (feat. CLAN QUEEN),” “DARK GAME,” and “bestie” set the tone early, while the remaining songs push the project further into a more defined and confident direction.
The album reflects muque’s evolving identity. The band continues to blend indie pop with elements drawn from US, UK, and Asian music styles. This approach comes through in takachi’s production, which pairs layered beats with clean, modern arrangements. At the center of it is Asakura’s vocal delivery, carrying emotional weight while keeping the songs accessible and melodic.
Beyond the music, GLHF extends into the band’s live presence. The limited first-press edition includes footage from their sold-out MUQUE TOUR 2025 “RIDE ON!” show at Zepp Shinjuku. It offers a closer look at the group’s live energy, which has become a defining part of their growth.
That momentum continues with the ongoing muque LIVE TOUR 2026 “GLHF.” The tour includes 14 dates across Japan, alongside stops in Singapore, Bangkok, Hong Kong, Taipei, and Seoul. Several shows have already sold out, reflecting the band’s steady rise and expanding audience across Asia.
Formed in 2022, muque has quickly built a strong following. From their early releases to their major debut with “456” and the recognition of their first album Dungeon, the band has maintained consistent growth through both studio work and live performances.
With GLHF, muque moves forward with a clearer direction. The album captures where they are now while setting up what comes next.
