Fermenting dregs of rock 'n' roll for the masses

.........."We are sitting in the EMI/AVOCADO Records office with their A&R people. With a name like Mass of the Fermenting Dregs, you would expect an interview like this to take place in a destroyed hotel room with black drapes covering the windows, floor littered with spent and mangled beer cans, cigarette boxes, ashtrays, and other detritus of rock and roll debauchery. But no, the two young women I am speaking with bear no resemblance whatsoever to a road- hardened, booze-fueled metal band".......

So not the case ladies and gents......

You May Crawl has one of the best bass intros I've ever heard.
I also really like Flow, Feedback, Pool, Egoist, Killer, Kimuri No Shiro, and a bunch of other songs.

Definitely check out the other bands I mentioned... each one is very different.


im listening to motfd right now ^^. they're something all right. im also checking the group's background, i found out that their former drummer is a girl! which made me love them more, too bad she quits tho =/ yay to all girl drummers :D



They had a solid male support drummer until they got their new resident drummer this year. Kensuke Nishiura of Sotaiseiriron and currently Luminous Orange was their drummer from 2007-this year august of so if I'm not mistaken. Sotaiseiriron is Etsuko Yakushimaru's resident band(she's been releasing a lot of solo collaborations lately). Luminous Orange is a indies shoegaze band headed by Rie Takeuchi. The members changes a lot since it's start in 1992 and eventually that became a notable feature of the band, at least one member of any band related to Number Girl was in it at some point. Inazawa Ahito (also leader of VOLA & The Oriental Machine) was their drummer until Kensuke replaced him in 2009. Inazawa left to work with his own band. One of the best drummers if not the best drummer in Japan.

I'm surpised Natsuko responded to the Number Girl comparison that way, but no they don't sound anything a like....and Hisako was a female member of the group <.<

Funny thing about the Nakao Kentarou comment. I happen to call him pretty leukemia. Any group he touches, ANY, is good.....and eventually disbands. If MotFD disbands because Chiemi left, I'm blaming him. He produced all of "Zero Comma, Irotoridori No Sekai" it would seem, album has a lot of their old tour stuff and Zero Comma, Irotoridori No Sekai(the song) was know for some time.

Kentarou "Band Cancer" Nakao.

Eriko Hashimoto of Chatmonchy attended and made a blog entry about their last show with Chiemi last Saturday.

OMG HOW DID YOU FIND MY SANKAKU COMPLEX POST? I actually can't get into Scandal much. Furukawa Miki is another good female rocker. Dat Bass.....She does electronica too, but that's to be expected. She was doing it even with SUPERCAR.

EDIT: OH WAIT. CUTE SCHOOL UNIFORM CLAD JAPANESE CHICKS WITH GUITARS YOU MEANT?! My head's gonna come off huh? >:O STOP TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT MY YELLOW FEVER.

Double Edit: Scandal's cover of Judy & Mary's Daydream

This is one of my favorite JAM songs....and I personally SCANDAL didn't do it justice. The simplified it so much...

Here's the original

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzsFVKW-xpg

Also this all girl band YUKI and CHARA were in after JAM disbanded, MEAN MACHINE. The sound is SO rough. I love it.

I don't know what's up with this year. Polysics loses there lead singer, Dregs loses Chiemi, Hikki goes on her hiatus, MEG goes on her hiatus, Ayumi and Koda DON'T GO ON ONE and Midori (censored)ing breaks up! 2010 started so good and ended SOOO bad!
