NEXT BAND: Kyary Pamyu Pamyu

Post by RetroRomper »

Subtle mix of cutesy Japanese Pop and soft electronica, Kyrary manages to make music, craft a sound that is neither gimmicky nor blatantly as glossed as the majority of the idol bands that have inhabited the shores of Nippon since the 80's. Though the music is an acquired taste, the imagination and thought behind the visuals is nearly appalling to the normal eye because of its extreme range of symbolism and near sarcastic tone.

So right... Fashion magazine diva turned into the personified and nearly sarcastic carticture of other more sugarified idol singers, she at least carriers her sound, music, her message in a way that doesn't instantly make one wish to shove a punch die through an ear drum.

1) Wicked FUCKEN LION, right?
2) If she wasn't an air brushed glamour model, she'd be totally hot, right?

Apparently she released a music video a little while ago, which is a bit more normal in sound and tone then her other work.

Repetitive, colorful yet subdued overtones and filters with the obvious autotune tweaking in place, the video is actually less odd than her other music. Anyway, I've been speaking with a friend who is quite into her and I will share a few live appearances she has made but... Those performances are wonky and subtly off putting for reasons it is taking me a bit of time to digest.
