Sweets Tankentai first album "NA NA NA" released.
This is a bit late, but hey I had tests.
Sweets Tankentai released their first album earlier this Wednesday. The band features YURIA, Masaya Koike (of UNDER17 fame), and K-SUGI. Release details can be found at Broccoli. It seems like most of it is filled with various OP/ED songs they did in the past year, but there are also some original songs in the mix. Guest artist MOSAIC.WAV is in one of the songs.
Subjectively speaking, I feel it is probably MUCH better than YURIA's first original album released two months ago. Examples of their excellent work can be found in the Canvas 2 OP/ED, which despite the horribly disappointing ending, is still a pretty good show. I suspect my forgiving attitude to this series must be attributed to the hypnotic nature of this music.

This CD is excellent. I actually knew about it a month in advance, and pre-ordered it from YesAsia.com. Why? Because I've been a fan of Under17 since I was 17, and Koike Masaya is an awesome guitarist. When Under17 split up, I followed both Momoi and Masaya as they went their seperate ways.
Masaya lends his awesome guitar talent to this album, and it sounds really good. K-Sugi's awesome, addictive beats back up the smooth guitar and Yuria's excellent voice, and it makes for a really nice listening experience. I really suggest that if you're a fan of Masaya or Yuria, that you pick this one up. It rocks.
