ЯeaL “Kamen Miha Joshi” Music Video (Short Ver.)

It’s a exhilarating rock tune from ЯeaL, who drew attention at the time as a teen girls’ band from Osaka! “Kamen Miha Joshi” is a track that belts out the slightly cynical truths of the SNS generation over blistering beats and soaring high-tone vocals.

Despite its aggressive sound, the music video shows refreshing scenes of the members cutting loose with friends by the seaside, perfectly syncing with the liberating feel of summer.

That contrast is exactly their hallmark—and under a blue sky, this is the ultimate summer song that’s sure to blow away your everyday frustrations.

ЯeaL “In This River Where Fireworks Scatter (10th Anniversary ver.)” Music Video

Fireworks in summer and past romance…

it’s a theme that clicks into place like a perfect puzzle.

It’s a song by the Osaka-based rock band Яeal, included on their 2014 mini-album “Change Your ЯeaL.” A cool rock tune featuring a striking, fast-paced sound arrangement.

The lyrics, however, capture a poignant world view, recalling the scene of fireworks once watched together with someone dear.

The storyline of “wanting to see them but being unable to” evokes the feeling of summer’s end.

tsushimamire / Matsuri [PV]

A slightly eccentric summer rock number.

Since it’s called “Matsuri,” the Japanese taiko drums add a nice flavor, but I can’t help feeling they get a bit overshadowed by the eccentric, borderline perverse vibe of the vocals.

Then again, maybe that’s just fine.

The way it wraps up neatly with a slapped bass at the end is also quite nice.

Well done.
