They are a Japanese Rock/Punk/Techno band for all who don't know of them. Now here's the "backstory" of the band -- They claim to be from the future -- The year 2005, actually. But because they were getting bad record sales in 2005, they decided to travel back in time to 1998, thus reforming the band with their "futuristic" sound and look.

THEY'RE IN MY BUM.

[hello k!tty]

aww i love them :3

[8bitsuperstar]

New thread of WTFtastic awesomeness heart

[ShinobiRedScarf]

Why haven't I made a post in here until now? surprised heart

[ShinobiRedScarf]

I just realized that I haven't heard 90% of the side projects that are listed. Someone should tell me all about what those projects are like...besdies Floppy. I know what they sound like. 3nodding

So I saw that the video for Hello was up on Youtube. That was one of my favorite songs off of the new cd so I'm happy to see that they've made a video for it.

[sporkbot]

The remake on Zetsubou san was INFORMATION, and the remake on Boku no Sonzaisetsu was Neji Shiki. "koukiku sekai" should be hikari kagayaku sekai. I have no clue why every one's copy is mis-romanized like that XD And ooooooone more correction. katakata 16fun should be "16pun" because when you put "fun" after juuroku, it becomes juuroppun. 3nodding and that is your nihonganese lesson for today.


NO ONE TOLD ME ABOUT THIS THREAD.


Shinobi, we should hook up, and I can send you samples for a lot of those bands.

[sporkbot]

Looking at that discog list, I feel bad, cause I have almost all those songs [spare a few demos] but I only own a few CDs D:

MUST. SUPPORT. METO.

gonk

[Yilei]

Awesome, a new thread. XD Somehow it's nice to see more of us actually taking the time to do re-makes for the threads so that the information can properly get out there.

When you come over next week, if you still wanna work on stuff too, you can. 3nodding If you need help reading something too, I'll be literally there, so yeah. XD

[Raycoli]

My DVD just shipped today along with my copy of Cycle Recycle ^^ Very excited.

I'm curious to see what will happen to fill Yuuichiro's place.
