The band’s name is Sakuran Zensen. Sakuran means ”crazy” (sort of) and Zensen means ”front of the line.” So Sakuran Zensen means ”front of the line of the crazies.” In an interview with a publicity company, the singer told them that they did not pick this name for any other reason than ”it sounded cool.”
El Batstardo
I’m predisposed to like this shit. But enough already.
Trailer
Somehow I missed this trailer at the time.
More Pretenders
You all know this song, so I’m not sure why I’m posting this, other than it’s always seemed to me to be somewhat underrated. Yeah, it appears on “best of” compilations, and MTV did air this video some, but I don’t remember ever hearing it on the radio. It’s a great song, with brilliant guitar parts throughout, and a badass lead break at the end. Do I wish I’d seen them live? Hell yeah. Sadly, half of this line-up would be dead within a couple of years.
The Sexiest Collarbone You’ve Ever Seen
And a song I’ve had on repeat for a little bit. How did I miss Lisa Hannigan?
Anyway, thanks for the heads-up, Aashish!
Mirrored Aztec
Bob and the boys release their 31st (? maybe, who knows? how do you count?) and second album of 2020
f you’ve worn all those out, the band has also announced a fan club of sorts called Hot Freaks (what else?) that will give you access to unreleased content, rarities and other stuff. Let us know how it is, Monkeystador.
Dansylvania
If you film bats upside down, you get a goth club, of course.
But wait, there’s more!
While we’re revisiting great covers…this one achieves the impossible by being better than the Kinks’ original, in my opinion. I doubt anyone else has ever bested the Kinks. Another Nick Lowe production.
Am I The Only One…
… who didn´t know that Ringo was left-handed?
Garfunkel & Oates
Charming.
