Pepperland (ペパーランド, Pepārando) is the seventh studio album by Japanese singer/songwriter Chisato Moritaka, released on November 18, 1992, by Warner Music Japan. Named after a small music hall (itself named after the orchestral piece from Yellow Submarine) in Kumamoto where Moritaka started playing music, the album marked a shift in musical direction in her career, as she became more engaged in playing musical instruments such as drums, rhythm guitar, bass, and piano. It also has a more stripped-down sound in comparison to Moritaka's previous albums. Pepperland is the only studio album in Moritaka's catalog to not have any singles.[1][2] The album reached No. 5 on Oricon's albums chart and sold over 197,000 copies.[3][4] It was also certified Gold by the RIAJ.[5]
