I also think it should be "New Civilization," because it is a thing to be discovered (hint hint) whereas "westernization" is a process....and also a weird title for a song. Sorta like "Turning Japanese" in reverse, but with "new" added. But how can something be "newly" Westernized? You're either Westernized or you're not, unless somehow you've been deprogrammed after the first Westernization, and now it's happening again....a "New Westernization."
Who knows, that might be a subtext of the song....the deprogramming and reprogramming of Westernization in Japan. Tokyo Jihen rewriting history and coming out as ultranationalist right-wingers. |

^^^ Just wait until the album itself comes out. Luckily I'll be in Vietnam when that happens.

I just realized... The bass is totally badass in Atarashii Bunmei-kaika. Guitar noise is reduced just the way I like it. No awful and overly-loud electronic organ(If I had to describe it, Izawa's role was special effects, doesn't make much suspense and main plot but adds to charm.)

This song was featured as background music on the televised version of DOMESTIC! Virgin LINE. (when they were playing that game, remember?):
