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.
The album reached No. 5 on
Oricon's albums chart and sold over 197,000 copies.
It was also certified Gold by the
