 Tokyo Jihen Just getting into this band...I have all of their singles and both albums, and I'm really enjoying it. While Kyoiku is pretty weird and kinda annoying at times, I found this year's release, Adult, to be really interesting and awesome.
Ringo Shiina has such a great voice - it really fits in well with the distinct sound of Tokyo Jihen I guess. Love the violins, too.
Anyone else into Tokyo Jihen?

They have a few good songs (Sounan is awesome), but overall I find them really annoying.

SOUNAN IS REALLY REALLY GOOD.
SO IS SOME OTHER SONGS FROM THAT LIKE JUSUI NEGAI (spelling?)... Gomatsurisawagi.....
ALSO, FROM ADULT!, I LIKE BLACKOUT, HIMITSU, Kenka Joutou...
I mostly like Himitsu now.

Adult is pretty cool. I think Himitsu would be my favorite.

Not that I don't enjoy Tokyo Jihen, but from what I've heard of Shiina's solo work, it's far superior. Karuki Zamen Kuri no Hana is particularly amazing.

Re: Tokyo Jihen I asked the Japanese book/CD/DVD store if I could have this poster when they were done having it on display. More than a year past, and they finally called me.
