Why Do You Hate Me, April 1st?
I hate April 1st. There’s always so much fake news that I want to be real. The last couple years I have avoided all contact with the internet when the time has come. Sadly, this means the pains come a day later and this year was no exception. Over at Rockman Unity (think Capcpom-Unity except in Japan) plans were announced for a three-part, J-pop group composed of girls from the Mega Man franchise; Roll from Classic Mega Man, Mayl from Battle Network, and Luna from Star Force. There first album, titled Transmission Of Your Heart, is scheduled to come out December 17th, 20XX; a date amalgam that should be familiar to Mega Man fans. The group’s first performance will be on the roof of the Capcpom offices where limited edition posters will be handed out. This all hinges on reality and so it’s all made up. How awesome would this be?!?! RIGHT?!?! Stupid Capcpom. Stupid April 1st. *grumble grumble*
Pillows Full Of Rocks
I listen to a lot of Japanese music. A LOT. I try to spread to word about bands I like so this week I am going to introduce y’all to my favorite band, The Pillows (sometime it’s written without capital letters). The Pillows is a band of three permanent members (lead guitar, rhythm guitar and drums) and a rotating chair for bass guitar. The founding bassist left the band early on and was never officially replaced. It may seem weird but Japanese music is kind of quirky.
I originally learned about The Pillows as their music is used as the soundtrack for my favorite anime FLCL (pronounced Fooly Cooly). I could write a whole big thing here but instead I will let their music do the talking. Here is a link to their YouTube channel. Allow me to make a few suggestions on where to start. Read more…
