New Love is the twenty-first studio album by the Japanese rock duo B'z. It was released on May 29, 2019, about a year and a half after their previous album Dinosaur. It is the first B'z album to not have an accompanying single, though music videos were produced for "Tsuwamono, Hashiru", "Wolf", and "Majestic".[1][2][3]

The album debuted at number one on the Oricon weekly albums chart and on the Billboard Japan album chart.[4][5]

The album comes in three editions: A standard CD edition, a vinyl edition, and a limited edition box set featuring the CD with a t-shirt featuring the album art.[6]

"Wolf" was used as the ending theme for the Japanese TV show Suits.[7] "Majestic" was used in a Pocky commercial and "Tsuwamono, Hashiru" was used in commercials for Lipovitan to support the Japan national rugby union team.[8][9]
