ALTERNATIVE IDOLS GENERAL #1: SCREAMIN' MINAMI NAO EDITION

As suggested in previous LadyBady/DR threads, a global thread dedicated to all sort of alternative idols bands. We'll have to define what this "alternative idols" thread encompass, but I guess that all the groups included below may give a good idea of a potential definition.

probably because it puts some claws back into the kawaii house cat. Idols are always acting up the whole uguuu~ moe angle and those are a dime a dozen it's great to have girls that are both attractive and also don't perpetually act like 8 year olds.

At first I was going to say that it's not alternative because pop-EDM is one of the biggest things in the world right now.

but after listening to it I saw that it's nothing like Perfume or some other idol group that waters down EDM into straightforward pop, bonus points for one of them actually working the console/mixer. Definitely alternative.

Well the whole EDM DJ scene is a bit of a clusterfuck, and a lot of the highest-paid DJs in the world actually just pretend to look busy with their consoles during their shows.

Not to go into too much detail but basically some DJs will just play their songs as they are with no live mixing at all, some DJs will mix the ever-loving shit out of their songs with them controlling each individual track of a song (drums, synths, bassline, etc.) and mixing those around during live shows.

I don't know any of their songs but that did sound like a mix of a few songs with fading and whatnot. Whether or not that was being done live and not pre-recorded, and whether it wa the girl or guy doing that, I have no idea.

I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and say that it was being done live by the girl who is an actual DJ and the guy was just there to equalize the sound levels of the like 6 or 7 different microphones being used on stage.

and yeah I'm really into them now, gonna check out if they have albums & singles out.

Also I noticed there's Stereo Osaka, Stereo Tokyo, Stereo Japan, etc. do they have a whole sister group thing going on?

[Anonymous No.]

>>14438687
Ok so I had to go on a little research because I didn't understand is that well

Stereo Japan formed this year, it was composed of two groups: Stereo Tokyo and Stereo Osaka, both groups had a different line-up of girls (stripped skirts are Tokyo and plain skirts are Osaka) they shared the same songs but played live with different schedules with their own versions (or remixes) of the songs, they performed as Stereo Japan at big events like Tokyo Idol Festival and as separate groups any other time

They released two CD's: Electron and Anthem, each with three versions (Japan, Osaka and Tokyo) just like many idol groups these CD's were practically the same but with their own remixes and extras

A couple of months ago they separated (an ephemeral group, too bad), Stereo Osaka left the label and formed Edge Dub Monkeyz
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMEJ_Hn0IBs
Stereo Tokyo still performs and they're going to realease a new album soon, they have a new MC/DJ and everything

That concludes Stereo Japan 101, hopefully this was interesting to you, if you're still interested here's Anthem, the Osaka version, to get you started

It was for vacation, but I hope to go there for a few months in 2016 and to be able to go to the TIF this year.

As the Summer Sonic has on the same day one live of Babymetal and 5 mini live of diverse idols band (including Passcode, You'll Melt More! and Band ja nai mon), it was a too great occasion to miss it.

Also, it was pretty fun to be on of the two westerner in the audience during the "Idol Sonic" part of the festival.

[Anonymous No.]

>>14439215
>Yeah, becaus that would make financial sense?

It would actually, as it would move more tickets for them. Same reason regular metal bands always go on tours with like 3 or 4 other bands.

Part of the problem too is how Babymetal's management wants them to be part of the metal scene and wants nothing to do with idols.

I thought it had something to do with their manager wanting them to be "the only one", like they want to make a unique genre, one that's exclusive to them

But then again they only play at metal festivals so your reasoning is good

[Anonymous No.]

>>14439359
Yeah that's what they've been plugging in interviews since they became famous last year, but really they were just supposed to be a one-off meme group for Sakura Gakuin but they just became so popular (relatively) within Japan and then the rest of the world.

Groups like BiS were also bringing the alternative idol scene around the same time, but Babymetal was definitely the one group to bring it to as much of a mainstream audience as possible and most other alt idol groups came after them, and they're also the most metal not-idol idol group

[Anonymous No.]

>>14439301
Except they wouldn't make more money because international fans that like babymetal cannot be relied upon to like other idol groups. Add to that the cost of transporting the other idol groups AND their staff/equipment. It's a wasted effort. Hell, they'll have to pay more for venue usage since they will be using them longer, won't be able to add festival dates because now they need multiple openings to fill, jesus, it's like you are 15.

is this your first time being aware of music? bands or groups being on tour don't do any of that lol opening acts don't follow their headliners into a festival slot and the headliners don't pay for the opening acts' travel expenses.

as far as the venue is concerned, same, opening acts pay their part of the costs and in return get a part out of ticket sales and their merch sales, and typically the longer an entertainment venue stays open by the hour the more money it makes with sales of drink & food.

I'd love to go see an alternative idol festival/tour with Babymetal as the headliners. never gonna happen though.

[Anonymous No.]

>>14440429
I've done a euro and east asia tour with my band. It makes no sense logistically with the venues they play and the amount or lack of people other idol groups would bring in. Why do you think the majority of idol groups never tour outside of asia? It's not worth the expense.

[Anonymous No.]

>>14440556
well right now, no. the interest for Death Rabbits and Passcode and other alt idols is very very marginal.

although... Ladybaby? I know they're mostly just playing at like Anime conventions, but there's definitely an interest there. They might actually maintain their popularity and have it grow if they released an album and more videos anytime soon.

Group such as Passcode and FruitPochette would fit to the atmosphere. The real problem, as said earlier, for an int tour is that except the "top" groups like Perfume and AKB there are'nt a lot of group that are able to bring a sufficient number of fan inside a venue.
It's even worse when your consider than most group idols (Denpagumi.inc ...) play most of the time in animecon when they go international. An I think than one of the master move of Koba-metal was to avoid the animecon and aiming for the metal festival when Babymetal planned their 2014 World Tour.

On the other, a alt idol tour/festival with Babymetal in Japan may be profitable, but I think it would'nt fit the current strategy of the group. That's why I guess we will not see them at the TIF soon.

Bing translate, which is twitter's translator program, is utterly useless.

For the most part though there's a lot of "I'm on way to school" and "I'm eating lunch", quite a bit of "YOU DON'T KNOW ME SO DON'T JUDGE ME I AM 14" and more than enough "I want to die [8 knives]"

Also Swastikas in Japan are definitely more associated with Buddhism (which is where they came from in the first place) than Nazis, but she could be trying to be edgy as well.

They sound like such a great group. At first I had my doubts about ladybeard but after watching a few of his interviews and understanding how the character came to be... I was surprised, he's the most laidback dude ever, he's so honest to himself and to everyone else, having a beer with him must be a blast

I didn't know what to think about Rei, especially after all the gravure stuff and whatnot. Since she doesn't speak japanese it's mostly speculation but I'd like to think she prefers to sing and dance on stage and crowd surf, she even cried when the fans gave her the cake and flowers. Being on ladyababy, bratz or doing gravure, in the end I hope she keeps on doing what she really enjoys.

I don't know about Rie.

Ladybaby concert in Cologne was pretty fun yesterday. It wasn't really good musically (the supporting act Scargot was pretty good though), but it was a high energy fun show.

Ladybeard's german was pretty good and he said that he lived in Germany 15 years ago and thus hasn't spoken for that amount of time.

Close to the end they came out with santa hats and a capy and set up some chocolate santas to throw into the crowd. Rei was really viciously throwing them, it was kinda scary.

Rei crowd surfing in the end was a nice bonus.

I must say, it was fun enough to definitely go see them again when they come around again.

It's a shame really, i'm certain that the BM girls would love to do something with other idol groups, it seems they are on good terms with Dempagumi and something between them would be interesting at least.

But Koba it's the problem, he will always be there, telling them what to say/do, hopefully BM is gonna disband in a couple of years so the girls can take their own paths.

[Anonymous No.]

So what's everyones opinion on the post-BiS groups? For me:

POP/pla2me: Really liked the early stuff when it was just Saki and Mari, but the new group is also growing on me and the album was neat. Not sure about the new direction though.

BILLIE IDLE: Love the 2 albums, the whole retro 80's stuff is a pretty tired trope these days, but they make it work. But aside from that I don't think I can really comment on them. I mean, there's barely any social media actvity (the most you get is Uika or Non-chan tweeting random shit 2-3 times a week) and they barely seem to be doing concerts, atleast not for non-fanclub members. You hear nothing of them until suddenly "oh btw, here's our new MV" "oh btw, we release a new album in a couple of months" and then it's silence again.
Like the music, not sure about the rest.

Tentenko: Love the noise stuff she does solo or with Florida. The Halmens cover album was also pretty neat. She pretty out there musically, so I guess her stuff isn't for everyone though.

Maison Book Girl: Didn't blow me away. I feel I should like their sound, but it's somehow really bland. Maybe they'll grow on me.

Lui Frontic: Meh, generic J-Rock, don't care.

BiSH: Seems to be the most popular of the post-BiS projects (funny enough, considering it's the group without a single former BiS member). Like the music, like the members. Momoko is love.

Bonus:
Rinahamu: Love her weird noise side-project she's doing, not a big fan of her main solo stuff.

Yuffy: He music is inoffensive, but I can't really get into it. Too much on the bubblegum pop side of idol music, I guess.

Morphine Tokyo: Basically a discount version of Tokyo Jihen, which is not a bad thing. Alot better than Lui Frontic, that's for sure.

Bish has fun lives, their music, however, is pretty bland/boring
The only thing POP has going for them is horsefaced Saki and they're not even using her correctly. Mari should be realeasing new stuff soon enough.
No one really likes Maison book girl here, I hope they break up and Koshouji goes solo.
Their producer is a creep as well, some anon posted about him earlier
Tentenko is interesting, she has talent, but she is happy enough to just do untalented random garbage and get by solely on her looks when doing solo stuff (yes, a good amount of her fans like her purely for her childlike looks)
Billie Idle is good, but, yes, their long breaks between shows makes keeping up with them kind of boring. Hopefully that changes?
Lui....

I don't really keep up with them anymore because there isn't really anything worth keeping up with nowadays. KOTO and her traveling friendship pack are much more exciting nowadays.

Near to zero I think. The best"hope" may be to have the group becoming "hype", by doing one or two anime ending for example, and pray to have them going to internation anime-con. Bonus if you have a fair number of anime-con that happends in a reduced range of time, like Japan Expo and HyperJapan for Western Europe.
But I think your best chance is to plan a trip for Japan.

>POP
"UNIT" and "NEON" are good songs. The current members are cute, too, but I can't say I'm crazy about the whole 5-member-Shiina Pikarin thing they're currently trying to pull.

>BILLIE IDLE
I think they could potentially get much bigger than they are at the moment, but the deliberately un-idol-like marketing is holding them down. They have three good voices and decent characters, but if you're not in the heinously expensive fanclub you get no access to whatever they're doing. They have some great songs, though, I like "somewhere" and "Toki no Tabibito".

>Tentenko
Can do no wrong, except maybe for the Halmens EP which I'm not really into and don't listen much. Everything as Florida is also especially good, but that's to be expected of Takizawa Tomoe.

>book girl
Once you've heard Izukoneko, you've heard everything Sakurai Kenta's ever done. Megumon's poetry reading CD was good and the acoustic live EP is cool, but I'm not really interested in their album at all.

>LUI FRONTiC
I don't dislike them, but there's nothing interesting about this band and they haven't released anything exciting since the first JAPONiCA. They may as well have just revived solo Pour Lui for all the two background guys bring to the band's presence.

>BiSH
They have great members, but they don't feel as rough as BiS did at the same time, which was part of their charm. The first album had a lot of good songs, so I hope they'll be able to repeat that for the new one.

>Rinahamu
Noise project? Eh? There's 15Q which is close to the "kawaii trap" thing that's popular lately, but I haven't heard her go as far out as noise. Anyway, her solo material is charmingly annoying.

>Terashima Yufu
As traditional and old-fashioned idol songs go, Yufu's are good. Her first single was really great but I wonder if she'll ever be able to top it.

>Morphine Tokyo
R.I.P
I liked their songs, but more so than that, their music videos and look were great. I hope UK will continue doing music now the band is over.

I actually like it because, even if they do rock and metal, they are not that stylistically separated from the akiba-kei kind of Idol.
They also they attracted some controversy because of the suicide of one of their members and the arrest of a stalker who was threatening via internet with killing the center grill of the group (Anna Tachibana, pic related).

They've been around since 2013 but they are a combination of other three active idol groups that where active from some time before.

Rei: He’s a bit crazy. His brain works quite differently to normal people, his thinking is a bit out there. He has the mentality of a 14-15 year old, naïve and very sensitive, and that song in particular, he wrote for me. I talked to him before about not wanting to grow up, so that song is about wanting to stay a child.

What do you guys think about this new Babymetal song?

Yeah, the new song made me realize two things - Rei and Rie are alot better singers than I first gave them credit for, and Ladybeard is alot worse of a growl vocalist than I first thought. Songs alright though.

New Babymetal songs pretty tight, and I'd say the announcement of their new album today shit all over Ladybaby releasing the new song.

I'll be surprised if Age Age Money breaks more than like a few hundred thousand views, nevermind a million. I feel like Nippon Manjuu's popularity was just a one-off "oh look how quirky that is, even crazier than Babymetal xD" thing and that'll be their peak.

Personally I'm just not interested enough in SG, and that's like 90% of discussion there. Otherwise the thread isn't too bad (most of the time).

I like it more than the ballad, though Chigau is still my favorite of the new songs. But they are all a bit too tame. I guess they have to be since the girls are not children any more, but hopefully there would be more extreme songs on the album as well.

I agree about a few hundred thousand views, but that's because the song isn't as good. Nippon Manju is just too damn catchy.

Not sure if I get this. Do you think the songs are more how the girls would like them rather than just producers telling children to do stuff or what?

it's pretty bad, Babymetal used to be able to mix extreme elements and make them work but this is like toothpaste and orange juice.

It's all been downhill since Road of Resistance.

What I mean is, they look cute rather than ridiculous when they are doing stuff like Gimme Choco or Doki Doki Morning, but this might change as they get older. Their songs becoming more "normal" is a natural direction to take. Aren't Moa and Yui actually doing legit backing vocals instead of chanting on the two new songs?

The new BM song sounds really generic, not in the bad sense of the word, it's a song that can be played in the radio or something like that without the "WTF japan" feel.

What strikes me about the song it's Su-metal performance, if she really hit those last notes live then she shits all over the current idol singers.

Where I live the new BMTH album was the "heaviest" thing I heard being played on the rock/metal themed radio.

>Fun song but the growls felt really weak. Ladybeard needs better technique or something
Pretty much this, LadyBeard is a bad, at most mediocre, growler and it's too old to improve technique, a twelve songs album with LadyBeard screaming is gonna get tiresome real soon..

If Rei/Rie don step up their game LB is not going to work in Japan, and forget about metal festivals with their mediocre live and no backup band.

I'm pretty sure they seems to be aiming more towards the idol market than the metal market, probably why they're performing with Death Rabbits which also don't really give a shit about trying to pretend that they're metal or anything else.

It's fine, i understand your point, Moa and Yui are competent singers and they fulfill their role in BM just fine, i agree that they are not great singers tho.

If they're aiming towards the idol market Ladybeard is gonna be a huge burden for wotas.

True. With Death Rabbits at least they can either insert themselves into the faceless role of Bucho, or just see him as a father figure to the girl, with Ladybaby it's a weird relationship between the fans, ladybeard and the girls.

Like I said, babymetal(theyre distinguishing the group as mix of metal/pop based from what i've heard)

I sincerely think that it was just going to be a song about wanting money, but Rei being the edgy 15 year old that she is found out about Marx last week and had the songwriters throw in stuff about Communism and the proletariat.
