Psst - it's the anniversary of Cowboy Bebop's and Music Women Wednesday by @loewe
So, let's post music from the incomparable Yoko Kanno, specifically Tank! - which served as the theme for Cowboy Bebop. https://songwhip.com/seatbelts/tank
#JIdol I'm lazy today and letting the YouTube algorithm have its way today. It has decided I need to listen to a series of 黑黒 shows. I don't mind they are good and obscure enough that they don't surface often.
I'm trying to buy tickets, for a concert in #Tokyo. But on the website of the group, there is no link to the website of the group, but the venue also doesn't appear to have a website.
So where can I find those tickets ? Is there some third party website like TicketMaster in Japan? And do they accept non-Japanese credit cards ?
In honor of Nemophila's #LivePerformance in less than 24 hours at Budokan, here's a song from their first concert as Nemophila in front of a live audience.
This was coming out of COVID restrictions, so the audience was only allowed to clap, no shouting. It was still quite an emotional night.
I did not see a theme for @ThePop's J-Music Friday this week, so I'm just going to drop the fantastic music video from Hanabie for their newest track, OTAKU Lovely Densetsu. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Awx5vfb_aSY
Yes, I know I dropped the song last week, but they now have a music video! I have to share that too!!
Been in a power pop mood recently, and this song (and band) hit the spot. They just signed with a major label and will release their debut album in March.
i'm trying to remember this #jrock band i listened to like 20 years ago. i was never big into jrock but remember this one album. i thought it was by Dir En Grey, but i don't think so anymore; had a track called "Chainsaw" on the album, maybe? band had a similar look to Dir En Grey but less cringe? ugh
Okay, for @loewe's Music Women Wednesday, I was just introduced to Japanese rock / metal band PaleNeo (stylized PaleNeØ) by @gnitro (forgive me if you did before & I just forgot).

It is time for a new album suggestion. In the past summer, alternative rock/shoegaze band BLOOD PICK ME from Minato unveiled their debut album "UNNORMAL". According to reviewer Peter Dennis, this album resonates with the challenges of the current era but also has a timeless quality.
