Ling Tosite Sigure

Ling Tosite Sigure (in Japanese: 凛として時雨, Hepburn: Rin Toshite Shigure, literally "Cold as shower in late autumn", stylized as Ling Tosite Sigure) are a Japanese rock trio, consisting of 345, Pierre and TK, formed year 2002 in Saitama Prefecture, Japan. The band's style resembles post-hardcore and progressive rock, often incorporating rapid changes of tempo and mood framed in complex guitar melodies and technical drumming. They utilize both male and female vocals ranging from soft singing to loud wails and screams.

At the very start of the group's debut, LTS released several demos before actually letting out a proper song. Over the years, Ling Tosite Sigure has become a successful band because of their uniqueness, but also because they have sung and played for a lot of anime Openings and even movies. The most popular OP piece they have made was probably "Unravel" from the internationally famous Tokyo Ghoul, which gave LTS a huge amount of fans and popularity as well. They've also done a song for, for example, the anime Psycho Pass and a Spiderman movie.

Year 2014, they were even nominated for Best Video, with their work/nominee being "Enigmatic Feeling", so why not search that up if Ling Tosite Sigure has caught your attention?

80's J-Pop: Miki Matsubara

Album cover for Miki Matsubara's "Stay With Me". Miki Matsubara , or Suzie Matsubara [as she also went by], was a composer, lyricist and singer from Japan. She was known for her 80's J-Pop love songs, but really became famous after her debut single, " Stay With Me ", was released in November 1979. I'm sure many of you have heard this song, and I'm a fan of this talented woman myself, thus I decided to write about her. Early Life Miki Matsubara was born 28th of November 1959 in Osaka ( Kishiwada ), Japan. She grew up with a father, mother and younger sister in Hiraoka Town . Miki quickly became familiar with jazz music, as her mother was a jazz singer. She started playing piano at an outstandingly young age of 3 and simply embraced music in general, not only jazz but also rock. She went to ordinary schools her whole childhood and was praised as being a great and hardworking student who would enroll into university, but Miki had already dreams of beco...

Bongcheon Dong Ghost

Bongcheon-Dong Ghost is a short, South Korean horror webtoon (a type of digital comic) created by Horang August 23rd 2011. In July 2011, artist Horang published the short webtoon " Ok-su Station Ghost " on Naver Webtoon (a webtoon portal). This webtoon included 3D-like effects, including in a scene in which a ghost´s hand appears to jump out of the screen as if to grab the viewer. Horang followed this webcomic up with "Bongcheon-Dong Ghost" later that month. An English fan translation and video dub were created in August, as the webcomic quickly went viral internationally. Some people also recorded themselves reading the story and putting it up on YouTube for people to see their reactions. If you are too scared to read the story on your own, I recommend searching up PewDiePie's video of reading Bongcheon Dong Ghost. SPOILER. Set in Bongcheon-dong, Seoul, the webcomic shows a student walking home from school late at night meeting a female ghost who wa...
