True, they're for new group of the year in whatever the major awards you have there. :doh: Have found 4 PVs and a single, good start, hopefully lot more will be coming from them in the future. :applaud:
They have a somewhat big cult following in the UK, they've played quite a few shows there.

Hiroyuki Hayashi, aka Hiro, singer/guitarist for them. :hehe: Noticed not nearly as many music fans as other things, not too many threads or posts in many of them, except of course for Arashi, etc. :usuck: :usuck: :usuck: :usuck:

yeah i dont listen to much pop songs.,...more rock/punk/pop punk/emo etc.... i know loads and loads of minor bands from these areas...from JAPAN and other countries :woot:

Figured I'd post this here. If you're in the US and are a fan of Japanese rock, you should consider going to the Japan Nite tour. The lineup & schedule for the 2010 edition is out. I'm super excited cause Chatmonchy are finally coming to the US. :victory: Though, Chatmonchy won't be coming up here to Boston (technically Cambridge, MA), they will be down in Austin, TX. I'm hoping I can go to that, but I'm in the process of switching jobs so I don't know what my schedule will be like. Stereopony was part of this tour last year.

Turned into more than a SP thread now, other Japanese music thread strays off the subject too much, :grumble: maybe we can use this for that purpose(?) See that the show is scheduled for March 22nd.

It's tough to chose certain songs off the top of my head. I will say that my fav album was Seimeiryoku, from beginning to end, it's great songs.

Forgot to check this thread first, just started to download this album. :fingerscrossed:
