Hmmm, since Hirate won't be there for Keyakizaka's 2nd anniversary live this week I wonder if they'll do the Yuichans double-center thing for every song.
Watanabe Risa was the center for their performance of Glass wo Ware at the latest Girls Collection, so who knows.

holy shit, stop rewriting Orchestra

I'll give it half a pass for being lazy trash since it's for an anime and they probably asked for that but ughghhghh

The latest Ishizaki Huwie song is great stuff. Add to that Suda Masaki starring in the music video and you've got a winning combination.
He just released a best-of featuring that track, highly recommend it to anyone not familiar with this fantastic singer-songwriter.

It's blocked in the UK too, might be wrong but I think Sony is the only big label that's blocked here now. Also I wonder if Co Shu Nie are with Sony now or they've got the rights to the soundtrack.

They haven't announced that they were debuting or anything, and they were specifically chosen by the author of Tokyo Ghoul to do the song, so I guess it's the latter

Bird Bear Hare and Fish (the new band by the former members of Galileo Galilei) are releasing their first single on May 2nd. Can't wait. Really wonder what kind of sound they'll be going for, Galileo Galilei used to be one of my favorite bands.

I posted that last page but it got lost in that bad BiSH song. everything about the song/video rules. unfortunately it's the best song on the EP by a decent margin imo but it's still good.

This is gonna be a good single.

I love book offs and the like but browsing any for more than half an hour just kills my brain entirely

THE ORAL CIGARETTES will release their 4th album, Kisses and Kills, on June 13. Their recent singles have been fantastic, ONE'S AGAIN might actually be my favorite song by the band tbh. Hype.
(Looks like they got sucked in The Matrix x Gantz)

I feel like I mentioned this before, I used to listen to them all the time. Especially Itsumo no Nagare, which is my favorite track.

I had to buy it on iTunes JP because I was missing it so much.

I was actually surprised to find them myself, didn't expect them to be on Spotify here.

Also, I have now learned the entire thing on guitar. :P

Two more tracks from Nogizaka's new single. One is by the Under members, the other by the 2nd Gen members. People seem to be mad that the 2nd gen gets a weird song but it's a pretty fire tune, I love it.

A Kankaku Piero MV starring Tanaka Makoto is always a good thing. Also it's the theme song of the drama starring Gesu no Kiwami Otome's drummer Hona Ikoka.

Life is beautiful from the upcoming BiSH single. At least it's a bit different, though plain as fuck.

Pretty cool.

SHISHAMO releasing their 5th album on June 20th. No tracklist yet.

The last two songs from Nogizaka's new single aired on the radio. First one is a unit song by Ikuta/Eto/Sakurai, 2nd one is by the 3rd gen members.


Really digging that trio song. We're getting one of their best singles yet, all 7 songs sound really nice.

Creepy Nuts first album released! It's available on iTunes. Haven't purchased yet, but I listened to the previews and it sounds so good! Can't wait to purchase it later today.
Wish the album was available on ototoy, so I could possibly grab that FLAC version.

Yeah grabbed it today, it's wonderful. Will be on heavy rotation for the whole month, and I already know it'll secure a spot in my top 10 of the year. Feels great to finally have a full album and not just 5-song EPs.

Song is aight. Better than her last 4 releases.

Feel like Nakata hasn't dropped a big hit in a while. His solo album and the new perfume was just okay imo

it's pretty passable apart from missing anything resembling a hook, so it's a recent nakata song alright.

kyary somehow morphing even more into looking like a moga mogami clone

It's not often that a band manages to deliver amazing works even after being active for 20 years but Straightener sure can. Excited to hear their new album next month.

Keyakizaka46's queen Sugai-sama is releasing her first photobook on June 5, and it's set in Paris... now I'm disappointed I didn't see her in the streets.
(yes, I pre-ordered it)
