Sad day for the Japanese rock scene, Shinji from SECRET 7 LINE died in a car accident yesterday while the two other members got injured...
Lot of musicians on social media paying tribute to him, he will be missed.

So huh I just realized you don't even need to use two accounts to get money on your Amazon Japan account, you can just click on "Reload your balance" and use your credit card to buy points.

Looks like it takes a little bit of time to update your balance though (took 30 minutes for me, maybe I'm just unlucky).

huh, I wonder if that's new

 

[Kurita]

Might be, I don't remember seeing this before.

 

[stump sock]

did some research, looks like it took effect in NA at least in Feb of this year, so it's relatively new.

that's awesome though.

 

[Kurita]

Aaaand you don't need a proxy anymore to buy music. I just bought Yonezu Kenshi's new single without using a VPN. Holy shit, we're living the dream.

Crystal Kay feat Namie; PV for REVOLUTION

Love seeing them together, shame it's only 30 seconds

Namie's so tiny :lol

The full PV was gonna air on TV today, so it's only a matter of time.

Oof, it's a club PV. The radio rip made me hesitant since the song doesn't really have a strong focus on what genre it wants to be and seeing that clip has got me even cooler on the whole thing. The little bits of the choreography look too simple too.

Universal Music Japan got a nerve asking for 1,111 RT's just to upload the short ver. Will wait for the full thing on JPS

Universal Music Japan got a nerve asking for 1,111 RT's just to upload the short ver.

guess they don't like the thought of SMEJ being the least consumer friendly label

 

[Kurita]

Universal is weird, sometimes you get short versions (back number's PVs never get full versions on Youtube), sometimes you get full versions (some CreepHyp PVs, MONOEYES, Yonezu Kenshi...). It's quite random.

 

[stump sock]

man even the b-sides to OTNK are great. BiSH is quickly climbing up my personal favorites ladder

oh man and that BILLIE IDLE single is out today, and rules

and MGSV is out

what a day, what a lovely day

Not bad but I prefer ANTI-HERO.
As far as their slower songs are concerned Never Ending World will forever be the GOAT.
Looking forward to the other A-Side, &#12503;&#12524;&#12476;&#12531;&#12488;, hope it'll be a more dynamic song.

 

[stump sock]

pretty lengthy interview with Aina from BiSH

news to me:

Chitti is the leader, Aina is jealous of that.

BiSH fans are called Seisouin (basically, "trashmen"- hah. as opposed to BiS' "researchers")

Aina nearly drowned while filming OTNK, Chitti and Hug-mii pulled her out. says she can't quit the group until she saves them.

the interviewer makes a crack at the fact that she and Watanabe seem a little closer than manager/employee (I mean seriously, Watanabe posted a picture of them cuddling not that long ago)

Aina claims to be somehow surprised that she's most popular member. draws comparisons to herself and Uika. seems kind of accurate.

unrelated, apparently Chitti and Hug-mii did a swimsuit something or other show on niconico so anybody with premium, have fun timeshifting that

oh... welp :\

 

[Kurita]

Maybe she does! Picture quality isn't good enough. But I think it's just the color of what she's wearing. I highly doubt you'll see Perfume showing this much skin haha

 

[SweetDonuts]

I'm loving the promo picture, like, love love love. I need a poster of it. A~chan's whole get up is brilliant, very fashionista

Great look. My gf is annoyed that they are still doing singles. We need a new album D:

 

[neshcom]

Not a fan of the denim-y, furry thing Nocchi's wearing, but Kashiyuka is killing hard enough for all three.

Is this the first Perfume single with different tracklists between editions?

Oh shit, KANA-BOON and Scenarioart will release a split single on November 11th! They are doing this because both bands will provide theme songs for the anime Subete F ni Naru. Great way to push Scenarioart since KANA-BOON is one of Sony's biggest artists atm. Hype hype hype!

Damn, that Gesu cover.

The girls being taller than the guys kinda make it weird though haha

Is this the first Perfume single with different tracklists between editions?

Not 100% sure but it seems like it, they're really pushing for people to buy both editions. (Different tracklists, different posters).

Going to pre-order the Regular Edition soon.

Really like the PV but the song idk, seems a bit disjointed at parts and the Bruno Mars breakdown irks me.

I'll just wait for the single. Hope we'll get an album this year... All the singles have been amazing so far, so I'm pretty sure it'll be better than Sakanaction, which was a bit too experimental/slow to my taste. I need a DocumentaLy 2.

Two new episodes of GAF's favorite tv show, Sashihara no Ran, are subbed, as Sashihara continues to try and fail to make an HKT movie with 'lots of CGI' (also feat. Milky). Note, however, that now, in the year 2015, she's directing the HKT documentary. Good things come etc.

OMG, chouchou merged syrups. announced their first full album, &#12300;yesterday, 12 films later.&#12301;

This is THE year, holy shit.

 

[Kurita]

Saw that today yeah. Not really following them but I'm happy to see they got noticed by a major label (well, it's Imperial Records, not the biggest major label there is but still).

Sad to hear that &#12501;&#12524;&#12487;&#12522;&#12483;&#12463;'s drummer is leaving the band He was a pretty cool guy. Seems like he wants to be with his family in Osaka so more power to him. I wonder if they'll get a new drummer or just be a three-piece band forever (with support drummers)

Czecho No Republic released a pretty cool new PV where one of the guitarists is imitating John Lennon. He's also the one singing! Not the first time he's the vocalist but they never did a video for one his songs.
