The Day Dragged On is the first commercial release and first mini-album by Dragon Ash; released in 1997. The song 天使ノロック (Tenshi no Rokku) became a Buzz Clip (a song deemed popular enough to have its video placed on high rotation) on MTV Japan for one week.
The hidden track Normal consists of a telephone call which plays a demo of the song Ability → Normal from their upcoming release Public Garden, followed by a busy signal indicating that the party on the other line has hung up.
