"GARNET CROW is a four-piece band, consisting of a vocalist, two keyboardists and a guitarist. This brings a very unique sound to the band as the instrumental line-up is not what you'd find in most other bands out there. Their first mini-album was a hit in the indie scene, which quickly caused GIZA to sign them up on their label. The band has performed several songs for the Japanese animation, such as Meitantei Conan and MÄR Heaven. They have, to date, released 25 singles, 1 mini-album and 5 original albums. Nakamura Yuri's vocals are deeper than most other female vocalists in the Japanese music scene, which also adds a touch of uniqueness to this group"
There is no thread, so I decided to open one(while listening to the fist single i could found lol) and they are amazing. what caught my attention is this:
"Some fans even consider GARNET CROW's music to be "anti-avex" - quality over quantity"
have a listen:
