Year released: 2009 Although I've fallen in love with many Johnny's entertainment groups over the past few months, the group that have probably struck me the hardest are Kat-Tun. Not only do they have an incredibly consistent yet varied discography, but their incredible vocal blend is enough to make almost any song transcendent. Even though … Continue reading JPOP HALL OF FAME: Rescue – KAT-TUN

SONG REVIEW: Relationships. No way way – Morning Musume
Although I adore Jpop I've rarely been attracted towards the world of super large girl groups. There isn't really a particular reason for this but I've always found the work of soloists and boy groups much more appealing to my ears. Though they each have some incredibly strong singles, groups like AKB48 and Nogizaka46 have … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Relationships. No way way – Morning Musume
SONG REVIEW: Imitation Rain – SixTONES
Well this is one long overdue review. I've known about SixTONES and their long anticipated debut Imitation Rain since its release all the way back in January, but I never really found the time to give it a proper listen. The shortened music video also didn't help my cause. But ever since the Covid-19 outbreak … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Imitation Rain – SixTONES
SONG REVIEW: Anastasia – Nogizaka46
Recently, I've begun to dive deeper into the world of incredibly large Japanese girl groups. Of these, Nogizaka46 is probably the one that I've taken the most interest towards. Not only do they have some of the strongest j-pop singles of all time up their sleeve, but their discography as whole is incredibly solid. This … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Anastasia – Nogizaka46
SONG REVIEW: Brava!!Brava!!Brava!! – Kim Jaejoong
Over the past few weeks, I've had an almost unhealthy obsession with the works of OT5 TVXQ. The addition of the majority of their discography back onto Spotify certainly helped, but even before this I've always believed that their work as a duo never came close to their work a quintet. Not only did they … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Brava!!Brava!!Brava!! – Kim Jaejoong
SONG REVIEW: Pheonix – Da-iCE
Yes I know there are many K-pop songs I have overhanging, but there's just no ignoring the recent influx of fantastic jpop singles. In my previous post, I mentioned how M!LK are quickly rising the ranks to becoming one of my favourite Japanese groups. Well, Da-iCE, along with AAA just happen to be my favourite … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Pheonix – Da-iCE
SONG REVIEW: Winding Road – M!LK
Since I discovered them early last year, M!LK have slowly gone onto becoming one of my favourite active Japanese groups. Their full embrace of larger than life anthemic pop music is right up my alley, and singles like last years excellent ERA and Kasuka ni, kimidatta (my favourite song from them) further reaffirm my faith … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: Winding Road – M!LK
SONG REVIEW: INFINITY – JO1
Though the Produce franchise has all but crumbled in its home country of Korea, it has seen much popularity in neighbouring Japan and China. JO1 is the resulting group of Produce 101 Japan's first season. I adored the dynamic Young from the show, and I've had my hopes raised for the debut of this group … Continue reading SONG REVIEW: INFINITY – JO1
