Seo Taiji has announced he will release a brand new album. It will be his first album release in four years and six months.

Seo's management agency Seo Taiji Company said the single album, featuring four songs, will be released on July 29. All of the songs will be composed, written and produced by Seo himself.

The agency said Seo will go on to release his second single album and his eighth studio album. It said all of the songs in the three albums have been completed.

To record sounds for his eighth studio album, Seo visited an abandoned house in Gangwon Province. The video footage of his unusual trip to the area has been released online. Seo's official website is also showing streaming videos of a "Mystery Circle" discovered in the barley fields of Boyreong in South Chungcheong Province as well as an unidentified object flying over the COEX Mall in Seoul.

Seo Taiji's live comeback concert entitled "Eerie Taiji People Festival 2008" will be held at the Jamsil Baseball Stadium on August 15.
