Yeah they have one full album and a handful of mini-albums, really great band.

Itunes is probably the best avenue to purchase their music correct?
I stumbled upon them on YT a few days ago and was pretty impressed.

Yup, everything should be available in your local iTunes store.
Worst case scenario, I'm always willing to help you out and send one directly from Japan!

Really digging Perfume's latest single. Wasn't a fan of Pick Me Up at first but I love it now. Relax In The City is super relaxing. The B-side is neat, too.
Kinoko Teikoku's major debut single is everything I wanted. Can't get enough of the title track, it's a beautiful song, love the lyrics, too. I love the fact that it's the prequel to 東京, as it takes place 10 years before.
Donut is alright, too long though, and the third track, スピカ, is as good as the first one. Hope they'll release an album soon cause they keep on improving, can't wait to see what they'll manage to create next.
Nothing's Carved In Stone announced their first live album!
Pick the 5 songs you want to see in the album over there : http://www.ncis.jp/request/
雪渓にて, Pendulum, Seasons of Me, Predestined Lovers and Red Light are my 5 picks.

Aiko's new single Yumemiru Sukima is so good.

So good. Makes me happy to see them back to form. Narasaki was the hero we needed.
Short version for Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas's new PV. One of the guitarists is dressed as a glam rock musician, hilarious :lol

Song seems good but the usual silly part isn't in the short version.
The band also announced that they'll release a new album this year, as well as a Budokan show in January!
KEYTALK unveiled a trailer for the bonus DVD of their upcoming album. Already got it pre-ordered, the DVD looks amazing : 8 live songs and a documentary about their last tour.

Unfortunately, some of it is reminding me of FEEL and I really wanted Namie to move away from that generic dance stuff, I can already guess which track Zedd produced for her and to me, Namie can do so much better. *Reminisces about STYLE*
I was way too late to this
Could you really? the coasters were only pre-order bonuses weren't they?
Needed something to watch and this is pretty great, never watched Sasshi before either and I'm surprised!. I can't at them calling her ugly though.

YesAsia? Dunno how much is left but it's the only place I know of that still has it even though it's a bit more than CDJapan. http://www.yesasia.com/us/relax-in-...g-japan-version/1038872181-0-0-0-en/info.htmlUnfortunately, some of it is reminding me of FEEL and I really wanted Namie to move away from that generic dance stuff, I can already guess which track Zedd produced for her and to me, Namie can do so much better. *Reminisces about STYLE*

Tell me about it. I've got an ever growing list of live exclusives that I'm hoping find their way online. Why won't people let me pay them money?

Sweet! thanks, completely forgot about YA. I ordered a DVD from them once and waited a month + to receive it but oh well.

Wow it looks really nice, I can't wait for mines to come in! I mean there's a lot of pictures of it out already but still, it's just a really nice package to look at.

edit 3 (it's been removed)
Leo Ieiri, Kanako Momota (Momoclo) and Mayu Matsuoka (actress) were all classmates in high school. They got together on tv to chat.
It's impossible for me to watch Leo on anything and not just stare at her eyes.
Kanako says she wants Momoclo to have a career like SMAP (why wouldn't you though).

There is a Dailymotion link but Dailymotion is ugly so watch it there at your own risk. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2oyh61_pick-me-up-mj_music

legit chills. it's an S-tier Perfume song and it's been a while.
All hail Perfume
Yeah it's super fun, cynical.. perhaps the only honest idol show with a current top idol starring.

oh hey, Guso Drop released an actual video
偶想 Drop - Level
that mini-LP of theirs is better than I was expecting. some really catchy stuff on there, if you can get past how rough some of the other parts are.
---
I don't follow AKB stuff so I don't have a ton of background on this (except for what made the tabloids, etc) but this is super entertaining. Sasshi's funny. Both giving and taking some mean-spirited humor, I love it.

I second a physical wide release. I was a huge fan of Heavy Rocks/Rainbow/Pink/Smile, but haven't listened enough to anything from Präparat/Noise and more recent.
Also, glad to see there are so many Perfume fans here. I finally bought the cd for Level3 last month and have the box for the latest single on the way.

I hope it's Megumi's.
is it weird that my first instinct was to see how deadgrandma's taking the news?
Not really
New Misokkasu, it's pretty neat. You never know what to expect from these guys.

Anyone listened to the Nakata produced Natsume Mito single yet?
Is there another forum I'm not aware of, or everyone is on jpopsuki, too?
Haha same here.

yes! it's ok. sounds like a KPP b-side, but it's cute enough. also for some reason I think there's like 5 MVs for it
of course we're all on JPS. and most are on tumblr. and last.fm. and DG's hometown of the electricmole forums. and perfume-city.
I tend to use different usernames for a lot of things but any of you guys are welcome to PM me if you want to connect elsewhere too.

it's an improvement over everybody being on suicide watch every time Shiina puts out another underwhelming release.
I don't go there as much I should.
e: I'm sorry, I take that back, there are TEN versions of that Natsume Mito single

I'm convinced it's some kind of bizarre performance art. Apparently that's not even a picture of him (it's another poster)
