I like rock music., but recently rock vocalists who have an effeminate voice are getting popular in Japan. Is that a rock band? I don't think so. Rock bands are strong and manly. I'll introduce a man who makes manly band.
I'll introduce my favorite musician, Takeshi Hosomi. This blog title means "I am like a hedgehog" he said. He formed three bands. They are ”ELLEGARDEN”, ” the HIATUS” and ”MONOEYES”. ”ELLEGARDEN” is during a hiatus from 2008. Then he formed ”the HIATUS” from 2008. He has active in ” the HIATUS” for seven years, After that he formed ”MONOEYES” while continuing ”the HIATUS”. Now he is in two bands.
[ELLEGARDEN]
”ELLEGARDEN” is like american rock music, such as ”Green Day”, ”Yellowcard” or ”Blink 182”. I think this is the good point of ”ELLEGARDEN”. I like it. But it may be said that they are not a originality. If you like American bands, you will absolutely like it. The lead guitarist of this band is very popular among ELLEGARDEN fans.
[the HIATUS]
The sound of "the HIATUS" has a different atmosphere from "ELLEGARDEN", because they added a keyboards so they are five people. The sound became heavy. You will like "the HIATUS", if you continue to hear this band. Maybe when you hear it at first, you will not like "the HIATUS". It is such as the dried cuttlefish. Now "the HIATUS" is my favorite band.
[MONOEYES]
