SAKEROCK to release final album 'Sayonara' and disband in June

SAKEROCK will release their 5th and final album 'SAYONARA' on April 8, and will disband after their concert "LAST LIVE 'ARIGATO'" on June 2 at Ryogoku Kokugikan.

The album will be released with the 5 original members, including Nomura Takuji and Tanaka Kei, who have already withdrawn from the band. After their withdrawal, the members have been focusing on their solo activities, thus making it difficult to be active as a band. While thinking about disbandment, leader Hoshino Gen planned a last album with the original 5 members, as well as a last live. "Because we are disbanding, I thought it would be right to invite the two, who have already withdrawn, for one last time," he said. The members all agreed on Hoshino's suggestion and they recorded an original album consisting of 10 songs.

[SAYONARA]

01. Emerald Music
02. Memories
03. One Tone
04. Ballad
05. Orion
06. Couple
07. Alcohol Waltz
08. Sneaker Train
09. Nishi-Ogikubo
10. SAYONARA

[LAST LIVE "ARIGATO!"]

Tuesday, June 2 - Ryogoku Kokugikan (Tokyo)
OPEN 18:00 / START 19:00

Bump of Chicken to release double-A side single in April

BUMP OF CHICKEN will release a double A-side single titled "Hello,world! / Colony" on April 22.

"Hello,world!" was written as the opening theme for TV anime 'Kekkai Sensen' which will premiere on MBS, TOKYO MX, and BS11 in April. Regarding their collaboration with the anime, the members commented, "We feel very happy to receive the offer to provide the theme song for the anime adaptation of manga 'Kekkai Sensen', which all the members enjoy reading, and also have this opportunity to work with director Matsumoto Rie. The trailer itself looks really cool, so we're eagerly waiting for the actual anime."

Meanwhile, "Colony" will be used as the theme song for the movie 'Kiseijuu Kanketsu-hen' that's slated to drop in theaters nationwide on April 25. This is the sequel to the 'Kiseijuu' movie that was released last year which BUMP OF CHICKEN also provided the theme song for.

Budo Grape to release two new singles

Nagoya-based New-Wave band Budo Grape has released 2 new digital singles on iTunes this month, their first new material since 2014's full-length album Amsterdam.

With quirky vocals (Quminco), sharp keyboards (Naho), lean bass (Matsui) and drums (Taichi), and punk-inspired guitar from band leader Nagai, Budo Grape has won many fans abroad since their overseas debut at A-Kon in Dallas, Texas, in 2008 and subsequent tours of the UK.

The upbeat "4-3-2-1 Hi o Tukero" and dark, trippy "Zankoku Na Yasashisa" are available at iTunes now.

Budo��Grape is a catchy, high energy avant-garde pop band from Nagoya, Japan. With a style often compared to the B-52��s, the band is fronted by model and radio personality Quminco and Nagoya music legend Nagai of the "Shockers".

Formed in 2001, Budo��Grape released their first full album Koibito wa Koishite Tsukuru in 2005. The album was a hit in the Japanese underground scene and was followed up with the 2006 release Soko kara Detekinasai and 2007��s Otonatachi x Kodomotachi.

In 2008, Budo��Grape released their fourth album Aimore and performed their first American tour, with appearances in Dallas, TX (A-Kon), San Antonio, TX (Slim's Burger Joint), and New York (Knitting Factory). Inspired by their overseas fans, they returned to the studio that same year to release the EP Five Hits and Dust.

2009��s Himitsu Gallery would be the band's final recording for three years as each member worked on various side projects, including a Shockers reunion. The band reunited for the 2012 album Kare no Namae wo Omoidasenai, and performed their first UK Tour in October 2012.

After a return to the UK in 2013, Budo Grape released their 6th full-length album Amsterdam in 2014, followed by two digital singles "4-3-2-1 Hi o Tukero" and "Zankoku Na Yasashisa" in 2015.

The band claim to come from "Neo-Nagoya." They continue to tour Japan with their crazy live show and catchy songs.

"compared to the B-52s". I'm having a hard time imagining any Japanese person as loopy as Fred Schneider.
