December 7, 2008Sometimes I feel like I report on the same bands, but that’s okay! In this segment, we have two new US releases announced for February and a Grammy nominee!

-Two new Winnie songs on myspace, “sweep” and “first class speed of light.” Their new EP Headquarter is due out January 14.
–Dir en grey has a live DVD coming out! A Knot of is due out February 3 in the US.
-I uploaded two new songs to the box.net player, “Along the Line” by Akeboshi and “Mosaic” by kacica.
–Electrico has a new video for “Hail To the Friends.”
–Cornelius is nominated for “Best Surround Sound Album” for the 51st annual Grammy Awards.
–buddhistson’s new album SLOWDANCE -wisely and slow, they stumble that dance fast- will be released Januray 7 in Japan. A new song “Eyes in the Dark” is on their myspace.
IMHO Dir En Grey are the best J-rock band around. J-rock guitarists also have the coolest guitars! http://japansugoi.com/wordpress/jrock-guitars-are-unique/
