EXILE ATSUSHI has revealed a new visual ahead of releasing his new album "40 ~forty~" (November 4 release). 

For his artist photo, ATSUSHI got a buzz cut for the first time in about 10 years. As you may know, this was his trademark hairstyle back then. He commented, "Even in these hard times due to the novel coronavirus, if we continue to look forward, we should be able to see a light of hope. I felt that by showing that I've returned to my roots, it would deliver the message that we can start from zero again. I hope that I can give courage and hope to everyone." 

Also in the new photo, ATSUSHI sports a remake of a coat that he wore in the music video for EXILE's seventh single "We Will ~Ano Basho de~." ATSUSHI actually found this coat at an used clothes shop when he was in high school. Although he couldn't afford it back then, the store manager held it for him. It was one of the first big items that he bought after making his debut.
