[Discography] eksperimentoj

eksperimentoj
エクスペリメントイ
Eugene Wakamikoto (gt, vo), Simone Miyauchi (gt),
Keisuke Ashikawa (dr)
♦ status → active | indies » Hurricane Records
♦ info → official site (jp) | jpop stop | myspace
♦ sounds like → miimi, mass of the fermenting dregs,
downy, matryoshka, sleepy.ab, te
♦ genres → post-rock, hard rock, rock, emo, synth rock
♦ support → yesasia | cdjapan | hmv | amazon (jp)
♦ sarah's note → In discovering post-rock, thanks to miimi, I inevitably came across eksperimentoj. A band of three members eksperimentoj released only one album in 2007 before disappearing. According to their website though they have resurfaced but whether or not they will release new material has yet to seen.

For the moment we must content ourselves with eksperimentoj self-titled album. The album itself packs a huge of amount of gorgeous post-rock music which blends melancholy rock sounds with a deep impact. The lyrics are completely in English and are perfect sung by vocalist Eugene. The music itself creates an atmosphere depending on which song you listen to. I find myself particularly drawn the song "note" which drives it's melody creating a frantic sound to it. I honesty cannot recommend this album enough. Please give it a try!

[Discography] Furukawa Miki

Furukawa Miki
フルカワミキ
♦ status → active | major » Ki/oon Record / Sony Music Japan
♦ info → official site (jp) | jpop stop | wikipedia (jp)
♦ sounds like → Chatmonchy, Chara, YUKI, Ando Yuko, Clammbon
♦ genres → alternative rock, rock, pop-rock, guitar pop, electronica
♦ support → yesasia | cdjapan | hmv | amazon (jp)
♦ sarah's note → Ex-bassist and vocalist for the band Supercar, Furukawa Miki struck out on her own solo career after the group disbanded. With her sweet and strong voice, sometimes reminiscent of Chara, she blends awesome acoustic/alternative rock sounds with rock/pop melodies and occasional electronic blends. She's got some pretty awesome music so there's a lot to try but you might want to nab either of her singles "Coffee & SingingGirl!!!" or "Candy Girl" the former being one of my favorites. Not to mention she has some pretty awesome album covers.

[Discography] detroit7

detroit7
Tomomi Nabana (vo, gt), Nobuaki Kotajima (ba), Miyoko Yamaguchi (dr)
♦ status → active | major » Victor Entertainment
♦ info → official site (jp) | jpop stop | myspace
♦ sounds like → Bugy Craxone, noddles, GO!GO!7188,
Sparta Locals, Number Girl, midori
♦ genres → rock, hard rock, pop-rock, alternative rock, punk rock
♦ support → yesasia | cdjapan | hmv | amazon (jp) | amazon (us)
♦ sarah's note → detroit7 is one of the those fun to listen to kind of bands. You add hyperness and harder edged rock together with Engrish and you, no doubt, get a good time. The three member group has been bounced from labels for a while but most recently was signed with Victor, this will hopefully lead to more stable releases as most of their discography is a mesh of indies and major releases with many songs ending up on multiple releases. They have also released their debut American album only this year. I encourage nabbing their first two albums to try.

Note: Added the links to their American album so if you like remember to support.

[Discography] aluto

♦ status → active | major » Sony Music Japan

Akeboshi, RYTHEM, Jyukai, ROUND TABLE
♦ genres → pop, dream pop, ethereal, acoustic, alternative rock
♦ support → yesasia | cdjapan | hmv | amazon (jp)
♦ sarah's note → aluto is a pop duo on the Sony label. Mixing acoustic sounds with violin they have some extremely pretty pop music. Both blend in their singing and mix well together coupled with their music. I suggest nabbing their first single to try.

Note: I'm always for adding a violin to anything. :3

LiveJournal Major Notes: Spam counter-attack, RSS feeds again, CSI Deadly Intent contest



The empire strikes back

In recent weeks, we've taken huge steps towards blocking spam accounts on LiveJournal. In fact, we've suspended as many as 30,000 accounts in a single day! We've implemented several pre-emptive measures to prevent the creation of spam accounts, and we've honed our detection of suspicious content. Spam bots are a crafty lot, so we'll continue to refine our tactics and keep up the good fight to keep you safe from spam attacks on LiveJournal.

RSS feeds again

If you're addicted to [info]xkcd_rss, [info]icanhaschzbrgr, or other syndicated feeds, we're pleased to report that we've resolved the update error that was mucking up your RSS feeds. While content was being pulled correctly, it wasn't being posted to the feeds themselves. Late last week, we finally nailed down what we hope was the root problem, so content should post properly. We thank you for your patience.
