4 of the best JRock songs from August
The JRock scene never really quiets down, which is great because it means that some of our favourite acts are always putting out fresh new music. For this month’s round-up, we’ve got new songs from acts we love as well as some older tracks we’ve just stumbled upon. A healthy mix of old and new to celebrate the closing weeks of summer.
As always, you can find loads more new music on the Rice Digital Spotify Playlist, which we update monthly to make sure we’re bringing the best JRock into your lives.
Unleash by Band-Maid
We can’t get enough Band-Maid around here, and for good reason. They continually put out incredible music that is both familiar and fresh all at the same time. They never fail to deliver and have continued to put out music consistently despite the pandemic hitting Japan harder than most nations.
Unleash is a very classic Band-Maid song, with Atsumi’s distinctive vocals fitting in perfectly with Tono’s shredding guitar. It doesn’t hurt that the music video is extremely well animated and fun, giving us the kind of light-hearted humour that we’ve come to expect from the group. This is easily one of the most exciting groups in JRock and we’re hoping that this new track leads to a follow-up to 2021’s Unseen World. More Band-Maid, please! Read More...
