The Captains : Resurrecting the “Group
Sounds”
“Group Sounds”, a rock genre based
on the music of such legends as the Beatles and the Who, ruled
the Japanese music scene throughout the 1960’s. Bands
such as The Spiders and The Carnabeats infused the genre with
matching outfits and melodies that were distinctly Japanese.
Young people of the time danced, got too excited and fainted.
And now!
A band has finally formed to resurrect the Group Sound!
A band called…THE CAPTAINS.
The Captains debuted on Toshiba EMI in 2005
with the album “Shishin Tengoku – Koe wo Shiyo
yo” and quickly became one of the most popular acts
in Japan. Their immense following is largely due to their
live performances, which resemble an anime program come to
life:
Clad in matching military uniforms and armed
with roses for young lovers, The Captains drive audiences
crazy with their fast guitars, comedic talents, and on-stage
go-go girls. Be prepared to declare your love and faint!
I can't write any more!
Anyway, SEEING IS BELIEVING! Witness the romance! Love is
guaranteed!
The Captains: they come across the water from
Far East to America!!
