9.1

/J-pop, Alternative pop, Indie pop, Shibuya-kei/

Comment: what we could expect from the Japanese band on the Japanese label? Japanoise? Shibuya-kei? J-pop? Experimental electronica? All of that is possible.

Although the music is eclectic the harmonies and beauty on it could save the world. So save it.
