yep, I'd like to believe there's nothing malicious going on there as well, but I gotta admit, that's partially because I love the song. I do think that BiS are clearly the villains here (the scene where they storm the denpagumi2020 stage brandishing menacing glow sticks! the standoff at the end!) but that doesn't omit the potential for cultural tone deafness, sure.

Feels like the kind of band that could reach sakanaction level success in the future.
so, the new capsule - very clean, stripped-down, and reminding me of melodic idm like isan more than anything. not at all what I was expecting but I think that I might love it.

Yeah! A great surprise. Very nice!

BN - yes, it's in serious danger of becoming my album of the year. If I'm correct that this is their debut I don't know how they managed to make every song sound so fully developed, rich. Seems they've been kickin around for a few years though, earlier footage suggests more tecnical show off-ery before the tunes fully arrived.
― abcfsk, Sunday, 20 October 2013 12:54 (ten years ago) link
Debut album, they've released an EP before.

'STUPIG' is probably my favourite out of the last round of BiS things.
New Kyary vid is pretty sweet. Anyone seeing her on the World Tour?

I dunno but I like it. Very Deerhoof sounding backing to the extent I wouldn't rule out their involvement.

WORLD WIDE DEMPA was great too. (though sadly a little on the stingy with new tracks)

Tricot drummer is leaving the band this month, on the positive side they are booked to play a summer festival in Hungary so more European dates are likely to follow
― ( X '____' )/ (zappi), Sunday, 2 March 2014 17:09 (ten years ago) link
Also Slovakia, also Czech republic
Curious who they land on to replace the drummer, not like you can get any old chump to do it. Also curious what 'creative differences' exactly made him leave, after releasing all that amazing music. Maybe they want to get a girl.

I actually enjoyed that song but it may be because e-girls while is probably the best hip hop dancing girl group out there they've done singles so fluffy and tame they've been forced to put out separate dance intros or instrumental dance videos -- and this time they finally manage to incorporate it into the song/mv itself.
