For a split second, I thought I was in the djmax thread and was so unbelievably confused. That's exciting, though!
Oh, was this posted?? Maybe all her fans are gone from this community at this point, so nobody may be excited.

Yusuke Chiba died from esophageal cancer. Although I am not a fan anymore due to bad experiences with his fans, I'm devastated.
He influenced my life during one of the worst times and his band music helped me with depression back then.

So this is why he was trending on twitter :(
I was big fan of his two main bands The Birthday and TMGE. Never saw TMGE live but saw The Birthday live on multiple occasions and they were always great. Rosso was prety good band as well.
I thought of you immediately when I read the news. RIP. I'm sorry, friend :(
I didn't listen to The Birthday much, but I listened to a lot of Thee Michelle Gun Elephant back in middle school. Really sad.
edit: Kurita pointed out Spotify is wrong and this isn't Capsule.
New Capsule collab song sucks.

It's not a Capsule song, somebody either mistakenly registered their stuff under Capsule's name or willingly did it to trick people
You sometimes see completely random/unrelated songs popping up on artist's pages
I was honestly wandering if that were the case because I'd seen that shit before (reported several that never got fixed, too...). Thank you for the correction! Annoying that it showed up in my notifications since I follow Capsule haha

Yeah, searching for "DJ Fire House" brings up, uh, a YouTube channel with 12 subscribers (plus an artist channel with 500, I guess good for them) and, oh, this:
Reddit - Dive into anything

And because Reddit oembeds are apparently broken (by Reddit or Era, I have no idea):
Some great releases to kick off December, notably Hitsujibungaku's 3rd major album, Karaage Bento's 1st full album, new EP from Sorane…

How long are you gonna be there this time/where all are you going?
I'll be there a month and a half (the perks of being freelance!), staying in Tokyo's suburbs at my gf's place
And I thought my 5-week trip at the end of summer was long. I hope you have an amazing time and see some shows!!
Saw Otoboke Beaver in October. Really fun and got sucked into a mosh pit.
Wish I got their touring audio engineer's autograph though. I keep seeing her in the credits of hitsujibungaku's live releases lol.

I know this feel. Ichiko Aoba was in Aus while I was in Japan. Hope you get to go to Synchronicity again!
Synchronicity is in April so unfortunately I won't be able to make it.
That being said I already got a ticket for Necry Talkie and Cody・Lee's joint show 😎

Bocchi are easily one of my favorite newcomers of 2023, hope they'll drop a full album next year
The Japanese rock scene has seen a ton of great young bands flourishing over the past 3 years.
I feel like I'm witnessing a band boom similar to the one from the 10s, when bands like Kana-Boon, [Alexandros], Frederic, Keytalk, The Oral Cigarettes, indigo la End, My Hair is Bad, Wanima, Mrs. Green Apple etcetera… all started to blow up.

Went to the Flow Naruto concert two weeks ago. Was amazing. Only thing I didn't really like was that the person next to me (also a foreigner) was filming everything. Became really nervous hoping security didn't think he was with me. Filming concerts in Japan is a big no no

been less active in the latter half of the year so I have barely been able to talk here but just wanted echo the same sentiment.
Some great tracks landed this year! many even on this playlist.
great picks, Kurita!
What should be the last "big" week of releases of 2023 (expect the odd singles, surprise Christmas/end of the year drops next week I guess) had some good stuff, notably Natori's 1st full album, new stuff from Nulbarich, Yanushi, claquepot and a live album from Omoinotake.

Wow - after getting a present in form of the hitsujibungaku album now this. What an end to an already amazing year, it's as if the creativity that was held back/suppressed during the pandemic was able to break out this year - not only in Japanese music but also in general!
Will give this a listen, I'm sure to finde some gems I missed!

I have a really dumb q, what's the best way to keep track of who is touring where besides just following individual twitter feeds? Can I grab a band's RSS of lives and punch that into something, is anyone running a service tracking this, etc?
Individual Twitter/websites will always be the best solution.
That being said, Skream has a fairly good schedule that mostly focuses on rock bands
ライヴ・インフォ | Skream! 邦楽ロック・洋楽ロック ポータルサイト
オルタナティブ・ロック、ダンスロック、エレクトロを中心に、洋楽ロック、邦楽ロックのライヴ・インフォを配信していきます。
Also I guess you can check directly on ticket sellers' websites like L-Tike, Pia, Eplus… Their search engines usually let you just look up specific types of events (music, sports…)
