J-BANDS I Want to see BACK TOGETHER!!!! (>o<)


I would love JUDY and MARY Back..!! The band is best known for their noisy but melodic pop and cute punk music in the 1990s..They boosted in popularity after their 'Sobakasu' song was used as Rurouni Kenshin's (Samurai X) first opening..:D..I keep listening to all their songs over and over again..Their live performance always awesome.. After JAM disbanded, Yuki made her solo debut in 2002, and having a successful solo career.. I like her unique voice.. Her voice is usually loved or hated, due to it's high-pitched, and almost childish tone..
But, I just wish they were still together (Judy and Mary) not just YUKI, to make new music.. I want them back, so much..,even if only for a one day revival. Just so I can see them live at least once.. I wish their whole break up was a joke..:(

Members:

Yuki Isoya (磯谷 有希) - vocalist, lyricist
Yoshihito Onda (恩田 快人)bassist, composer
Takuya Asanuma  (浅沼 拓也) guitarist, lyricist, composer
Taiji Fujimoto (藤本 泰司) - guitarist 
Kohta Igarashi (五十嵐 公太) - drummer, composer

 Judy and Mary (JAM)

LUNA SEA was a popular Japanese hard rock band, formed in 1989 by Ryuichi Kawamura vocalist' Yasuhiro "Sugizo" Sugihara lead guitarist,violin, backing vocals; Shinobu "Inoran" Inoue,rythm guitarist, backing vocals;  Jun "J" Onose, bassist, backing vocals *nose bleeding* LMAO (He's my favorite member by the way..It's amazing that J-san still looks the same!!! Handsome, Hot..Yeah..Indeed he does!! lol XD); and Shinya Yamada, drummer, percussion..
Well, if there's one V-kei mega band that could have equaled the legendary status of X- Japan, it would be Luna Sea.. Luna Sea decided to disband  on December 26 and 27, 2000..*Owwww*..:(
But In 2007, Luna Sea reunited for a one-off reunion concert at the Tokyo Dome, and again in 2008 for the Hide memorial summit..^^ In 2010 the group officially reunited and held a world tour.. Their first new album in thirteen years planned for 2013..:D

LUNA SEA

Another band that I liked is ELLEGARDEN.. Even though they’re not really disbanded (but on hiatus) I miss their performance, their songs..The English lyrics of the band's songs, which are mostly written by Hosomi, are usually grammatically sound and well pronounced..Ellegarden's music can be described as pop punk, alternative rock.. Their melodic sound just fine playing next to Simple Plan, Blink-182, Sum 41..When i watched their videos, it would be great to have em back soon.. Such a great band...!!!!

Members :
Takeshi Hosomi (細美 武士) Vocalist, rhythm guitarist,
Shinichi Ubukata (生形 真一) lead guitarist, backing vocals,
Yuichi Takada (高田 雄一) bassist, backing vocals,
Hirotaka Takahashi (高橋 宏貴) drummer, backing vocals..

 Ellegarden

DO AS INFINITY.. 

Members:
vocalist Tomiko Van
guitarist Ryo Owatari, and 
guitarist and composer Dai Nagao..
Do As Infinity disbanded on September 29, 2005.. When I found that D.A.I  was disbanding I became incredibly upset.. I was infatuated by the voice of the vocalist Tomiko Van..But, Thank God,  the band reformed on September 29, 2008 - present..(but Nagao did not return..Nagao continuing to work with other artists at Avex Trax..)


Next...., TOKYO JIHEN a.k.a TOKYO INCIDENTS.. I love their songs, albums, and the band itself.. I generally love its jazzy influences mix with pop n rock.. Unfortunately, Tokyo Jihen disbanded last year (2012) February to the surprise and dismay of many fans (including myself).. The unit’s last official album release as a band was color bars, an intimate collection of 5 brand new songs composed by each of the members..We got to hear what each of the members brought to the table individually for the first time, That was a genius way to say goodbye to the fans ..Btw, Just wondering what Shiina Ringo’s reason for disbanding is, and what the members'll do once they disband. Still sad, but I believe they will still be making music..

Double "T" COMBO (TAKA, TORU) ONE OK ROCK


YUHUUUUUUU....YUU’S HERE!!..Muahahahaha..Somehow, lagi pengen ngebahas soal musik..
Ok,  walaupun melihat selera musik saat ini yang lebih didominasi  dan dimeriahkan sama kehadiran b*yba*d, aku nggak akan nulis soal mereka ataupun yang sejenis dengan mereka..
Aku justru pengen nulis soal  2 orang musisi yang tergabung dalam band One Ok Rock..
Let me introduce you to.....................
*jreeeng..jreeeeeng*
Yamashita TORU, founder and handsome leader from One Ok Rock (OOR) ,(merangkap pacar saya*buuuk..baaaakkk..plaaakkk..gedebukkk* (digebukin  fans2  TORU )..(^____^;),  ngisi posisi guitar and vocal di bandnya, Toru juga  adalah ex-member dari grup Hip-Hop HEADS .. 

And..................
Moriuchi Takahiro also known as  Morita TAKA, merupakan main vocalist Band One Ok Rock,(yang juga merupakan sodara saya *plaaaakkk* (ngarep banget), yang merupakan  ex-member  boyband News.. Well,  I'm kinda glad he left News..lol XD.. Menurut aku sih, udah pas banget dia jadi vocalist band rock..So, I think Taka made a good choice..He has awesome voice..

Personally, aku emang ngefan sama 2 orang ini..Ehm..klo di rating 10-100, Taka 89,9, Toru 90.. Dua orang ini bener2  gabungan n konfigurasi  yang pas banget yang ada di band OOR..
Chotto matte.. How about the others?? Ryota and Tomoya??hmmm.....hehe, take it easy.. Bukannya aku lupa sama Ryota, Tomoya n juga Alex*ex member* but, bahasan kali ini lebih fokusnya ke Toru n Taka ;)) 

WHY, MENGAPA, NAZE..???????
Nggak lain n nggak bukan karena pembahasan kali ini ada hubungannya dengan musik ONE OK ROCK..
