And Mao has ‘a special eye’ which is definitely part of his style. And then their hair, that changes colour in every video (please guys, don’t go from blond to dark-brown at once, it’s confusing for poor me). In Chapter 1 you see them in white suits and in Enamel they all wear clothing that fits a rockband. Their looks are, just like their music, constantly changing. The video above is their song Uso with English subs if you’re not that familiar with Japanese. They’re definitely worth a watch if you like a band that’s not afraid to try different styles and genres. Their instruments sound good and you can hear Mao’s voice clearly above the music. What I also like about them is that they sound great live (not all rockbands do so…).
#Sid ranbu no melody itunes series
Ranbu no Melody is used in one of the ‘Big Three’- anime series Bleach. Their song Uso (Lie) is used in FMA Brotherhood (Full Metal Alchemist if you don’t know) and Monochrome no Kiss and Enamel are used in Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler). If you’re a fan of anime you might know them already, since their songs are also used for openings and endings a lot. Accompanied by Mao’s voice it’s a song that keeps you interested all the way through. They leave enough room for all the instruments and the guitar riff is really nice. After that it’s a constant change between heavy and light rock in different tempo’s. It gives room to listen to the vocals and the bass that drops in after a while before they switch over to the heavy guitar again, suddenly changing the pace. This song starts with heavy guitar, but when the vocals come in they suddenly switch over to an acoustic one. However, the violin makes the song interesting to listen to, so I will not label this as a typical popsong -). Below is a video of SID playing their song Enamel, and I think it will give you a good idea of what I mean with their constant change of pace. Here they do that ‘slow quiet start-build-build-build-go slightly crazy in the chorus’-thing I just talked about. Ok, this was a song that reached the top 10 in Japan, and you might have guessed why. Below is their song Chapter 1, which was their first song to reach the Oricon top 10. Okay, I can talk all I want, but it’s better to listen to a song to know what I mean. The guys from SID like to throw in completely different rythms when they change from one couplet to the next. It’s not simply a slow start where they build momentum to go crazy in the chorus (most of the popsongs do stuff like that, bo-ring). Another reason why you should at least listen to a few of their songs is because of their constant change of pace. Yeah, why should you? Well, one reason is because each song is so different. They are not afraid to try a heavy rock song (Enamel) after creating a popsong that starts off with a violin (Chapter 1). Just to give you an idea of how populair these guys are: they sold out the Nippon Budokan (can fit 14000 people) within 2 minutes! Why you should listen to SID However I don’t like to label them so easily, because their songs vary widely in style. They’ve been together since 2004 and are generally classified as a visual kei rockband. SID consists of the four guys you see in the picture above: Shinji (guitar, backing vocals, blonde hair), Mao (vocals, light-brown hair), Yuuya (drums, black hair) and Aki (bass, backing vocals, dark brown hair). Visual kei is a separate music genre and style that I will not explain in this post, but many bands have been attracted to it, like SID. If you have a favourite link or Bleach fansite, message the moderators and we will add it to the list.When you think about music and Japan, you’ll probably either think of pop bands like AKB0048 or the complete opposite: visual kei-bands like The Gazette (more on those two in different posts!).
