Bamboo Collage is Hitomi Takahashi's second album released under gr8! records, a division of Sony Records. The album was released on October 24, 2007, and, like its predecessor, the album came in two versions, CD Only and CD+DVD. There were a total of five singles to promote the album.
Bamboo Collage is the second original studio album to be released by Japanese punk/rock singer Hitomi Takahashi. The album came out just over a month after the release of her 8th single, "Tsuyoku Nare", and over a year and a half after her debut album "sympathy". The album contains a total of six new songs - the other seven were already released on the five singles released for the album's promotion. As with the singles released for this album, all songs were produced by Takuya, while music and lyrics were written by punk/rock artists such as shogo.k from 175R and Maeda and Yamamoto from GagagaSP.
Unlike her debut album, nearly every song on Bamboo Collage falls in the punk/rock genre, while only containing one true ballad song. The album even contains the genre of ska in the song "Breakthrough" - a genre that Takahashi had never before attempted. The version of "Ko·mo·re·bi" that appears on the album is modified so that it is no longer the ballad song it once was, but is now a punk/rock version to fit with the rest of the album.
