Chilli Beans. have finally dropped their fifth digital EP, the outside wind – a vibrant and emotional release that brings together raw vulnerability, funk-pop joy, and the genre-defying sound the band is known for.

The journey started with 'tragedy', a powerful track written for the 2025 Mode Gakuen TV campaign, which set a haunting and intense tone. Then came 'pain' on 4 June, an emotionally charged anthem that resonated deeply with fans and quickly captured attention across social media. Now, with the outside wind, Chilli Beans. lifts the tension and open the door to a fuller, freer sound.

Anchoring the EP is 'pineapple!', a playful, funky summer jam that flips the emotional script and breathes new life into the release. Alongside introspective tracks like 'just try it', the EP captures the full spectrum of human experience: the highs, the lows, and ultimately, the release that comes with living honestly and openly.

With the outside wind, Chilli Beans. proves they’re not just riding a wave, they’re creating their own. This EP is a fresh, authentic expression that invites listeners to feel deeply and dance freely. It’s a compelling chapter in a story that’s only just unfolding.
