hare-brained unity - Recent Disco System

  • 0
hare-brained unity are a rock band from Nagasaki, Japan. They were formed in 1999, by four classmates, when they still were in high school. They play rock mixed with electronic music and their theme is "COOL&DISCO". hare-brained unity became major in 2006 and are signed to UNIVERSAL SIGMA.

Well, got to know this band through LUNKHEAD (again). Lunkhead and hare-brained unity are friends, probably because both bands center around Shimokitazawa.

Anyway, I'm not a fan of disco (I think 80s disco should be erased from music history ahahahahha)... But I decided to check this band out because of Lunkhead's recommendation. I didn't know at that time that hare-brained unity was actually disco based.

But after checking them out, I really, really, really liked their mix of disco rock! Seriously! I thought their sound is really fresh and different from other rock bands out there. Unlike, poppish and dance-electronical band like hellogoodbye, hare-brained unity is way more rock than disco. I feel the foundation of their songs is based on a rock track, played to a disco beat and electronics that binds the two together.

Definitely a band to check out!! Especially if you're sick and tired of the usual rock sounds out there!!

I'd love to see this band live!!!

Check it, my two fav track off their album, Recent Disco System.

Grapevine has been around for quite awhile and considered like one of those old-time rock bands (albiet not a major one)... However, I've not checked them out much.

However, I like this song very much... It has a really cool, suave catchy tune.... How shall i put it... a very catchable tune... haha..

Anyway, check it!

Aobozu - Mother (藍坊主 - マザー)

Today's random download is Aobozu (藍坊主)! Turns out to be a great single! One of those awesome, easy to listen, melodic and addictive Japanese rock songs. That said though, some Japanese rock songs these days tend to get a little formulatic and sounds are the same, but this ain't one of those. It has a good fresh bled of bands like Merenge meets Serial TV Drama kinda feel... haha!

This is a very radio friendly song, so...

Check it!
