[Single] Mizrock - Pepper Keibu

Seems her version on Pepper Keibu came out in early July. Mizrock continues to surprise and/or confuse, while not getting much attention at the same time. Being a fan of her ironically more “rock” work as “Miz”, I’m not sure what to think. Have a listen.

[Album] Eri Nobuchika - nobuchikaeri

Gates of Heaven reviews Nobuchika Eri’s debut album in great detail, going over every song with an open mind but also giving his personal opinions about every song.

He concludes by boldly stating that this is,

One of the best Japanese debut albums out there, and yet she is still in the shadows.

Quite frankly, he could be any more right but that’s just me. This girl can honestly sing and deserves far more promotion than some other artists within her record label.

[single] Tomiko Van - Tokyo Biyori

GatesofHeaven suggests Tokyo Biyori is definitely of a higher caliber than some of Tomiko Van’s songs on her covers album, which GoH openly criticizes them to be a catastrophe. GoH also finds salvation in both Tomiko’s B-sides stating them to be “nothing short of excellency”.

Hopefully our ex-DAI singer can bring back what she does best by releasing more outstanding tracks.
