A bonus track from a Japanese edition that became a single.

"C-H-E-M-I-C-A-L" was first on the bonus disc of the Japanese tour edition of Born in the Echoes. It came out as a single in 2016 and reached No. 93 in Belgium.32

The title is the first word of the band's name, split into its letters.

A track from the bonus disc of an edition made for a Japan tour ends up on the main shelf. When the order flips like that, it feels to me as if the world's shelf borrowed a record from Japan's.

Translated from the Japanese original.
