BiSH Stacks Against the Odds with Latest Release!

“STACKING” Digital Jacket Cover

Popular Idol girls group BiSH known as “the punk band without musical instruments” – have released “STACKiNG”, the opening theme song to the second season of anime series Kingdom, which began broadcasting on July 18. The single is available digitally now, and will be followed by a new album on August 4.

The rock sound and powerful vocals on “STACKiNG” are typical of BiSH, and the layer of emotional strings results in a song that perfectly captures the epic vibe of the anime series. A music video for “STACKiNG” was also released, which had been highly anticipated since a teaser video was released two days earlier. The video was directed by Masaki Okita, whose numerous previous BiSH videos include “Orchestra” and “Life is Beautiful”. The video for “STACKiNG” offers a nostalgic trip to a past version of Japan, with the members of BiSH in a variety of eye-catching outfits and locations.

The limited edition first print of BiSH’s fourth major-label album GOiNG TO DESTRUCTiON, released on Wednesday, August 4, will include the making of the “STACKiNG” video, packed with comments from the members and behind-the-scenes footage. Fans won’t want to miss this special video.

“Watashi” by Haku

Finding this group was a nice surprise. They only have three songs and this is just the latest but it's got a really solid composition. Haku was the winner of a grand-prix and listening to this song is easy to see why they won. 

Check out “Watashi” here, along with the official music video below.

“ReSTARTING!!” by Aimi

I stumbled across this song while writing articles and I really dug it. It’s got a heavy anime feel which I’ve been in the mood for as of late. “ReSTARTING!!” is a lot fun and it’s full of positivity that I usually enjoy as well.

Check out “ReSTARTING!!” here, along with the official music video below.

“Kamisama No Itazura” by Spira Spica

This mid-tempo number by Spira Spica was just a delight to discover. Its a bit moody and almost melancholic but there is something about it that I find charming. This was the song that helped me decide to cover them for Music Corner and I’ve had it on repeat all month long.

Check out “Kamisama No Itazura” here, along with the official music video below.

“Star”by BiSH

This latest release by BiSH is one I absolutely love. It reminds me a lot of their early work, specifically “Spark” and to me this song just has a nostalgic feel to it. It’s a nice mid-temo number with some nice guitar work in it. I’ve had this one on repeat for about a month now.

Check out “Star” here, along with the official music video below.

“Hajimari wa Kimi no Sora” by Liella!

I’m so glad this song did as well as it did on the ORICON. I had a blast the week we covered this number and I’ve been listening to it ever since. I’ve always circled around whether or not I would watch the anime but if the next release is as good as this one is, I’ll probably check it out.
