<div style="padding: 11px 10px; text-align:left;">'''GO FOR IT, BABY -Kioku no Sanmyaku-''' ''(GO FOR IT, BABY -キオクの山脈-, GO FOR IT, BABY -Mountains of Memories-)'' is the fiftieth [[B'z Singles|single]] by [[B'z]], released on April 4, 2012. It was the first single to be released following the conclusion of the previous album tour, ''[[B'z LIVE-GYM 2011 -C'mon-]]''. As of December 2012, the title song remains a non-album single, as with 2008's "[[BURN -Fumetsu no Face-]]". Upon release, the single debuted at the top of the Oricon Weekly Singles chart and became the band's record forty-fifth consecutive single to do so.
As was the case with "[[Sayonara Kizu Darake no Hibi yo]]" in 2011, "GO FOR IT, BABY -Kioku no Sanmyaku-" served as a theme to a Pepsi NEX commercial. In addition to the commercial, a special promotion was offered that allowed fans to gain a chance at winning special B'z Pepsi NEX T-shirts that featured one of two designs. <small>[[GO FOR IT, BABY -Kioku no Sanmyaku-|Continue reading...]]</small>

[[file:Ready2.png|link=BzWiki:Articles#Ready]]
'''''[[B'z (English Album)|B'z]]''''' is the self-titled debut English album by [[B'z]], released worldwide via iTunes on July 25, 2012. The five-track album contains new English reversions of a selection of popular B'z singles released between 1998 and 2006. The newly-written English lyrics were a collaboration between Koshi and longtime drummer of the band, [[Shane Gaalaas]].


'''''Readied Articles''''' are articles that have been reviewed and written to reasonable completion. These articles may see expansion in the future, but are perfectly capable of standing as they are for the foreseeable future.

'''''In-progress Articles''''' are articles that have been started but are not yet filled out enough to be considered ready and completed. Often, these are pages that will require substantial research and expansion in order to be considered even remotely ready.
'''''[[New Horizon]]''''' is the tenth [[Solo Works#Tak Matsumoto|studio album]] by [[Tak Matsumoto]], released on April 30, 2014. The theme of the album was to explore arenas that Tak had not yet experienced in his musical career thus far. Unlike with the oriental-themed ''[[Hana]]'' and hard rock release of ''[[DRAGON FROM THE WEST]]'', ''New Horizon'' sees Tak journey more into the jazz style he began cultivating in his [[TAKE YOUR PICK|2010]] and [[Strings Of My Soul|2012]] releases. In addition to highlighting guitar in ways he had not previously, the album also features solos for various other instruments, all of which were played freeform.

</div>
'''''Dated Articles''''' are articles that are usually dated not just in terms of age but formatting as well. These may include formatting and editing that does not match the current standard and will likely require extensive overhauls to be turned into readied articles.

New Horizon is the tenth studio album by Tak Matsumoto, released on April 30, 2014. The theme of the album was to explore arenas that Tak had not yet experienced in his musical career thus far. Unlike with the oriental-themed Hana and hard rock release of DRAGON FROM THE WEST, New Horizon sees Tak journey more into the jazz style he began cultivating in his 2010 and 2012 releases. In addition to highlighting guitar in ways he had not previously, the album also features solos for various other instruments, all of which were played freeform.
