Fantastic band that (in my opinion) has only gotten better with age. I don’t think most of their compositions anything that’s gonna change the game, but they’re executed really well with lots of power when needed. Definitely a band fitting for anime and as such, it makes sense that most of their tie ups have been anime ones. While they may not be the biggest Japanese band, they’re a notable name no doubt and have a really dedicated fanbase in Japan, to the point where their physical CDs still perform relatively well in a time where CDs have been selling less and less and rock bands especially haven’t been selling too hot. They even got their first number 1 album on Oricon this year, but this doesn’t mean they’re at their peak popularity, moreso it was likely a lowkey release week. Like sumika, there’s also not a ton of outright bad songs meaning that I was once again able to make a top 50 consisted completely of songs I like from them but I do think they have more songs that are weak than sumika. Overall though, they may be a bit of a safe band, but their vibe is something I’m always down for and I wouldn’t say every song is necessarily the same either (although there’s definitely some common motifs and themes that you notice when binging all of their stuff). And I do think it’s interesting when they do kinda experiment in stuff like Phantom Joke with multiple key changes throughout, but a lot of their newer songs are pretty clean cut (but not in a bad way necessarily).
Overall I don’t think you can go wrong with recommending USG to a rock fan, and if you want a good album from them, CIDER ROAD is pretty consistent (albeit the birthday song is a little weird lmao) along with Patrick Vegee. In regards to members’ contributions in other projects, I included XIIX’s songs as decimal points, but I chose to not include all of Tomoya Tabuchi’s compositions for other artists because even though stuff like Argonavis’ Hoshi ga Hajimaru sound very USG, I think this video would be three times as long with all of his contributions to LiSA’s discography lmao.
As for upcoming videos, I have a Who-ya Extended video coming up and then hopefully my top 50 OPs of the year as well but just because college work has ramped up to 11, I don’t want to promise that. After that I still want to rank all the artists I have in my queue eventually (ZUTOMAYO, Tatsuro Yamashita, Vickeblanka, FLOW, Aimyon, MY FIRST STORY, Keina Suda, maybe ONE OK ROCK and UVERworld as well) but I don’t have a concrete plan on when I’ll get those videos out. Also King Gnu is copyright blocked for the time being because of their upcoming album but I’m sure it will be back soon after their album drops
One of the bands that actually got me into japanese music thanks to Ballroom
22, 2 and XIIX songs like Spray and Vivid Noise are my favourite, but the top 10 is really good!
Wooo The Usg vid finally out i always want to check their music but I never really get past their anisong and Patrick vegee album so this serve as great place to get some rec thanks man 😊
Of course! Yeah Patrick Vegee was my introduction to their non anime stuff as well, so I definitely think that’s a good starting point. If you like what you hear from that, I’d definitely recommend CIDER ROAD as well. And their Bee-side Sea-side compilation has a few bangers too but it’s a hard recommendation since it’s sadly not on streaming (or even on pirate sites so I actually had to buy it on iTunes for the video lmao)
10:13 I wanna believe、夜を行く
Love the opening of natsukage tailight. My fav song of theirs is either linear blue wo kikinagara, tettoutettoutettsubiyonayonadrive, or sentimental period. Could you also possibly link bee-side see-side? I cant find it anywhere
4:40 can you link their album to this song because I cant find it 😭😭
Hi! Sorry I didn’t respond till just now. I’ll try to have that on a drive link in a bit. I had to buy it from iTunes along with most of the other stuff from the Bee-side Sea-side album
Here's the link to the song drive.google.com/file/d/1aBo-rPl5XvN8SV4uYhHdtebJ7QUyjJhy/view?usp=sharing
