I dig it.
That video reminds me of how common industrial settings are with punk/hardcore/screamo bands over the years. First one that came to mind was Fc Five's Enter/Evolve. Sad I only got to see them once.
I just got back from Rock in Japan. Holy shit. What a day. I'm beat. I'll post about it tomorrow, but really great show. My one regret is that my friend was too tired to stay for Alexandros. Laaaaame.
Some small notes... Shiina Ringo played my favorite song, 殺し屋危機一髪, but without Soil and PimpAlso, she ripped off her dress during the last song.
indigo la End played a new song, and it was radical.
Perfume are like androids on stage. Also, they love Thai Ramen and Okkusenman, apparently. They wouldn't shut up about the Thai Ramen that used to be at Rock in Japan two years ago. They even made up a chant for the audience about it.
It seems to be a standard casual talk subject to get into the people. I remind their casual talk about cupcakes and cheeseburgers at their world tour. lol So food is something everyone can talk about...
Looking forward for more details about your day.

Edit:
About Perfumes new single "Star Train": I can imagine this could sound like a "Perfect Star Perfect Style" and "Glitter" mash-up.
So the title makes me think of "star rain" from ACIDMAN. It's been a while i listened to it. One of my favorite songs from their studio album "Yu to Mu".
Nobu (the telephones) had a busy day at JAPAN JAM BEACH 2015. Beside the telephones he made a guest appearance on stage with STRAIGHTENER and POLYSICS.
If he gets bored about the hiatus he can perform on rock festivals as guest. :-D

The Mirraz revealed the logo of their new label (they're half-indie now I guess since it's a sub-label of Victor) and announced that they'll release a mini-album in October. More details coming soon.
Hope the mini-album will be as good as OPPORTUNITY.

OPPORTINITY Was good, but I hope they go back to their garage root of Top of the Fuck'n World and We are the Fuck'n World. But I guess that is a tall order since their last few releases have been more popular.
But I also liked their mini-album before OPOORTINITY way more than any other newer releases so I am board whatever they do!

Good to see you again. Glad to hear it... making me want to listen now. What have you been listening to?
doesnt help that im too lazy to buy strap locks
Too much of The Brixton Academy, also the new Ykiki Beat album is fun but disappointing but still loving DYGL, you should try them, they are the shit!
But now that Nile Long is on Itunes, I'll grab both of their releases and just listen the hell out of them.
Oh and that Kimono Album is still godly, wish we got another one

When is the new Perfume single being released?
I read somewhere August 1st but obviously that was not the case.

Short MV of the new AKB48 song

It's the tie-in song for the We Are Perfume documentary and roadshow. The doc premieres September 25th, the roadshow starts October 31, and they've got a small run of live shows in-between. It'd make sense for it to be on sale by September 26 for those concerts.

lol, I saw that yesterday. maybe they heard me complaining that they should probably put out some fucking music one of these days
but Hyadain is apparently back on board and their album tracks are frequently the ones I like the most anyway, so

now whether or not it'll be any good is up for debate

I just wanted to mention a few highlights and post a few pictures of the first day of Rock in Japan. This isn't everything I saw or all of the pictures I took, but I don't really want to make a super-post.
Bigmama
Didn't play many old songs at all, but they put on a pretty great show, and seeing everyone dance so happily really put a smile on my face.
a crowd of rebellion
I had only listened to one song by this band, so all I knew was that they were Metalcore. I hadn't been to a Metalcore since I saw As I Lay Dying or something years ago, so I decided that it was time. I even put in my ear-to-lip chain piercing for the show to suit the mood. Mosh pit got pretty crazy, and then I realized that Japanese Metalcore culture is the same as the West, which is a bit unfortunate. Some guys were doing hardcore dancing until the breakdowns, and that's when the heavy mosh began. Moshing was fun, but watching guys do cartwheels and roundhouse kicks to the music was so silly.
Perfume
I enjoyed Perfume even more than I thought I would. They played Pick Me Up and Relax in the City, which was a nice surprise. I was also surprised to see how they really dance like androidsit's pretty impressive choreography. I now understand why they can't really focus on singing for real, although the lip syncing must take some effort. They also sang a few songs with the audience, including Okusenman from like 3 decades ago. A-chan was obsessed with the fact that Thai Ramen is no longer at one of the Rock in Japan stalls. She had each part of the audience yell "YEAHHH!!!" when one of them said "Tai," "ra," or "men." Pretty funny.
indigo la end
Had to rush over from Perfume, so I missed a couple songs. Still, I got to hear a new song they haven't released, and I got to see them
It just makes me more excited to see Gesu, honestly.Shiina Ringo
Wow. What a performance. As I said earlier, she played all my favorite songs, but she also played that shitty autotune oneit really is a great song, besides the autotune, though. The big band, the big stage, the big performance... I really want to see just her in concert now.
Also, for the last song, she ripped off her dress right before she started singing. Quite the crowd-pleaser.
Overall, it was an incredible day. I just wish it didn't make me so fucking tired and sore. I hope I can go again next year, too!!
Pretty, prettty good.
Thanks! Now I gotta figure out which releases are essential so I don't spend all my money.
