"Image Song" MUSIC VIDEO released from Gagaga SP latest album

Gagaga SP released the MUSIC VIDEO of "Image no Uta", the lead song from the latest album "Strange Pitcher" to be released on March 18 (Wednesday).

Last year, the set list consisted only of songs from the debut single "Kyoko-chan" to the second album "Ola Aichinuketa".
They embarked on a “reproduction tour of their early work” and once again showed their potential as a live band, selling out at live houses all over the country. The lead song of this work, "Image no Uta," was performed on that tour and was eagerly awaited to be made into a sound source.

Unlike the up-tempo atmosphere of the songs that are unique to Gagaga SP so far, this work shows the appearance of a medium-taste rock number, and the lyrics spelled out with unadorned words are excellent. It is a new band anthem that arrived in the first year.

*Comment from Gagaga SP guitarist Satoshi Yamamoto
“I think there are connections with people you didn’t mean to, like friends you haven’t seen before, lovers you broke up with after a fight, and people you didn’t mean to. It's a song that I made while thinking of something like contacting someone I haven't seen in years."

In addition, Gagaga SP will hold a live tour with the latest album "Strange Pitcher".
Starting from April 8th (Wednesday) Kobe VARIT., June 14th (Sunday) Shizuoka UMBER will be a joint band tour, from June 24th (Wednesday) Shibuya La.mama to August 29th (Saturday) Osaka MUSE. as a one-man tour, visiting all 16 places.
I want you to witness the current progress of their unique pronoun “Seishun Punk”.

<Vo. Reina's comment>
Our first full-length album "pantomime" was finally released on January 29, 2020!
On that occasion, we decided to release the record in the first form of ver.2.5 → ver.3.
All the songs on this album represent the trajectory of our journey so far.
We are looking forward to the day when we can show you directly from 10 songs that have such a feeling.
May it reach all mankind.

<Ba. Motoki Saito comment>
In 2020, a special year for Japan, we were able to release a special album called “pantomime”.
The album, which was born on January 29th, is growing day by day. While praying that the more you listen to it, the more special it will become for you.
This will be revealed at the 3rd Tambourine Championship. I hope that you will feel the present of us who have been crawling around and preaching.

Dramatic Alaska has announced the digital release of "Anohana (2020 ver.)" on 2/26 (Wed.).
This song was released on CD in limited quantities in 2013, their debut year.
Dramatic Alaskan early numbers that are very popular among fans.
The lyrics and arrangement were carefully brushed up from those of the time and recorded.
A song that will surely accompany you in the season of encounters and partings that will soon come,
It will be released this spring after 7 years.

Also, 4/10 (Friday) Osaka, 4/17 (Friday) Tokyo, 4/23 (Thursday) Nagoya
Also decided to hold "me get night 2man tour" (# Megenai two man).
Tickets will be available on the Dramatic Alaska FC site from the day after tomorrow, 2/8 (Sat.).
Official pre-sale starts from 2/22 (Sat.).

[Vo&Gt Naoto Hijikata comment]
A song that I made when I was about 20 years old and hadn't released it as an official sound source,
We updated the lyrics, arrangement, etc. with the current 4 members and recorded again.
At the time, I didn't have any methodology for writing lyrics, so I wrote this song with Aosa 120%.
I was so embarrassed that I couldn't show it live,
As an adult, I carefully polished it so that I could play it with confidence.

The reason why the “farewell” stands out more than the “encounter” of the spring season is
I've been myself since I was 20, and I should have been making farewell songs,
I am happy to have found a connection with my past self.

In a karma that must part in order to meet,
I don't want this song to be about dreams, but I want it to be a song that is close to you.

From NYAI's 1st analog single "Pomason/tape drug" released on January 22, 2020 (Wednesday), the MV of "Pomason" with full NYAI / internal extreme popness has been released!

The most important alternative pop band living in Fukuoka, NYAI's 1st analog 7inch single (limited edition) "Pomason/tape drug" will be released on Wednesday, January 22, 2020.

The first MV "Pomason" from this single is a hand-drawn animation by takuchan, who is in charge of NYAI's vocals/guitar/songwriting. It is a beautiful meta MV that vividly presents the original/essential meaning of the MV.

["Pomason" MV URL]
https://youtu.be/vI3lS8ztmkM

NYAI is a rock band consisting of 5 men and women living in Fukuoka. The 2nd full album "HAO" was suddenly selected as a tower recommendation in July 2019.

Although he continues to work at his own pace in Fukuoka, his pop and alternative guitar rock sound that can be understood by those who know him has captivated local high-sense individual eventers and media people from early on. With its roots in alternative bands/units/artists from the UK/US/Japan that frequently occurred from the end of the 80's to the 90's, he created a new Japanese band after 2020 with his own sense of language.

I have a strong feeling that they will form a corner of the tide of Indian pop music.

Released 1st full album "OLD AGE SYSTEMATIC" in September 2016 and 2nd full album "HAO" in July 2019.
While living in Fukuoka, various love calls are increasing day by day, such as live events / circuits in various places, guests of tour bands, etc.
In addition, radio "SPITZ Masamune Kusano's Rock Continent Manyuuki", SPITZ fan club magazine "Spitzbergen", music site "REAL SOUND", J-WAVE's popular program "SONAR MUSIC" "SONAR TRAX", "POPEYE 』November 2019 issue (special feature: What kind of music do you want to listen to now?) Introduced in color 1P (comic-style live report by manga artist <Naokaku Shibuya>, a big fan of NYAI), etc. It seems that the presence is increasing at an accelerating pace nationwide.
