Highflyer is an extended play by the Japanese stoner rock band Eternal Elysium. It would be released in 2012 via Yukito Okazaki's label Cornucopia Records and then released a year later on vinyl via Headspin Records, with two bonus tracks in "Behind" and "528". The EP would feature guest performers in Misaki Ishiwata (Satoko Fujii Orchestra Nagoya) and Ryoko Ono (O-Jazz, Plastic Dogs, Sax Ruins).
"Highflyer" was written and recorded as the theme song for professional wrestler Shinya Ishikawa, who notably wrestled for Big Japan Pro Wrestling (2008 - 2014) and Pro Wrestling NOAH (2013 - 2014).[1][2]
