music in sakanaction's first thread [サカナクション]
 

サカナクション
Sakanaction (サカナクション) is a Japanese rock band from Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan. Their music is a mix of alternative rock, electronic, pop, and New Wave styles, and is thus difficult to classify under one category. The band consists of five members: Ichirō Yamaguchi, Motoharu Iwadera, Ami Kusakari, Emi Okazaki, and Keiichi Ejima.
They are enjoying increasing popularity, hitting mainstream success with their records clinching positions within the Top 10 on Japan's Oricon charts.

The tracklist for sakanaction's self-titled 6th album, that is to be released on 13 March 2013, has been revealed.

In addition to the single songs "Boku to Hana", "Yoru no Odoriko" and "Music", there will be "Aoi", the theme song for NHK's football broadcasts for 2013. There is also a song titled "INORI", in which Aoki Takamasa took part in (he previously remixed "YES NO", included in "Identity" single). There is a total of 14 songs and it is listed below.

Furthermore, the limited edition first press version of the album will include the bonus track, a self-remixed version of "Bach no Senritsu wo Yoru ni Kiita Sei desu."

There will be an album preview listening party held at Tokyo's Liquidroom Ebisu on the 8th of March. Similar to what they did for DocumentaLy's release, all songs will be revealed for the first time to public during the listening party. However, it is yet unknown whether there will be a Ustream this time for those not attending the party.

I am unbelievably excited for their new album. I think it's the now the rule that their release is the album of the year.

Yoru no Odoriko has been my favourite of the singles.

im liking what im hearing from the new album so far

new album rocs

映画 Is a weird song though
Only real flaw

The new album is amazing! I'm really impressed with it.

Only downside is that Inori is at the start, it's my favourite track.

after a few listens I deleted everything after Aoi safe Music

I like experimental sometimes but ehhhh it was soooo boring and just didn't grow on me at all

happy they are slaying the charts tho

B-b-boring? :'( This makes me sad. The new album is amazing. I feel like it twists and turns through all the styles they've tried so masterfully.

I don't know how they'll top it.

Random thread revival time! Their new single Sayonara wa Emotion / Hasu no Hana is excellent: Sayonara wa Emotion is just amazing, easily my favourite song of theirs after Music, Hasu no Hana and the Ame remix are really pleasant, and the remix of Music is unexpectedly awesome, it completely transforms the song with great results. :heart Please tell me everyone else loved the single as much as I did. :P

I havent listend to them since Ame lol

The remix of Music was such a pleasant surprise!
Now I have two amazing versions of Music to listen to ><
Both of the A-sides are good, but I prefer "Eureka" to both of them
The remix of "Ame" is lovely tho

^ You got me curious about Eureka, so I went and downloaded the single, and I have to say you were right! The other two songs on that single can go sit in a corner, and I still prefer Sayonara wa Emotion, but Eureka is a damn great song, exactly the kind of stuff I like from them!

Alright, I know this thread is years old but I love Sakanaction and I refuse to let it die.

Sakanaction's latest release was Tabun, Kaze in 2016.

I believe through 2017 they were touring?

This year, Sakanaction will be playing at VIVA LA ROCK on 5/3 at Saitama Super Arena

as well as the METROCK festival in Osaka and Tokyo.
Osaka: 5/19, 5/20 @ METROCK Osaka Tokusetsu Kaijou
Tokyo: 5/26, 5/27 @ Shinkiba Wakasu Seaside Park

I want to help keep this thread alive too!

Last year they also released the music video for SORATO, which is basically a reworked version of moon with some lyrics:



I loved moon the moment I heard it on the single, so I like SORATO as well. And speaking of moon and SORATO: I've always felt like the lalala's in moon (and the main vocal melody in SORATO) were lifted straight from another Sakanaction song, it just sounds so familiar. Am I just imagining things or does it sound familiar for a reason?

I wish they'd release things again, it's been long enough since Tabun, Kaze. I was listening to DocumentaLy and sakanaction earlier this week and it made me want a new album from them so bad.

^ yay! thank you!
I've missed this release :O but unfortunately all their videos are blocked from me :( I had no idea they blocked their stuff in some countries because when I discovered them I was living in Japan at the time....if I would have known, I would have bought all their stuff before leaving :headache

Yes, I want them to release again too! I couldn't believe they hadn't released new material at all in 2017
