Very nice semi-math rock. Though they should get with a more adventurous drummer. Travis Orbin maybe.

A workout for the chordal guitar player. He double tracked it but who cares about that.

Guitarist Rie aka Suzaku with violinist Jill. How can someone have so much ability with such meager success? It happens. Maybe it's because usually she has been scanty with clothing. Nihon really doesn't like that, though maybe that's changing.



I don't know how Jill chose that name but the model could be the evil Mistress Jill from Cutie Honey.

For a progressive rock thing you can't beat KOIAI. To me the star is the keyboard player, though uncredited and on stage they play along with a recording. The recording engineering excels as well -- it just plain sounds great, a big advantage. Drummer Kanade Sato suddenly has developed a unique style that I can't get enough of. Based on Latin rhythms, though you would never know it from the unusually restrained drumming on this tune.

I doubt that this music was recorded live but you never know for sure.



The two guitarists play with the greatest skill. Their style is based on that of Glenn Tipton of Judas Priest. Judas Priest had really good guitar players but I was grossed out by the B&D image of Judas Priest so never listened to them. Thusly Glenn's excellence never got wide recognition until embraced by Japanese girls. (They surely were girls when they took up the guitar for the first time.)

They have international ambitions as revealed by singing in English, though often it is hard to tell. Here's some of that busy drumming I'm crazy about.



This singer left recently and was replaced. Too bad.

I suspect that Nek! stands for neko[cat].
