Lost and Found!




Hello Hello, Lil Buns!

I originally had plans today but they got ruined...


So I stayed at home to try to finish up some secret projects for the Rainbow Star Candy shop. I can't reveal anything until they're done but I'm really excited. It's something I've never done before so I hope you like them!

Anyway, I couldn't finish them today because I needed some tools that I can't seem to find atm. So while I was looking for them, I found a couple of CDs from one of my favorite artists!


Have you ever heard of
Angela?


Angela is a Japanese pop band that started in 1993 but didn't get their break till 2002. The pair, Atsuko and KATSU, sang for a lot of anime series including StellviaSoukyuu no Fafner and Martian Successor Nadesico: The Motion Picture – Prince of Darkness.

Sadly, I haven't watched a lot of anime series that they made themes for but their music is amazing! Maybe I'll add the series to my list to try out too XD


Here are some of my favorite songs and hopefully you'll enjoy them as much as I do!






Now I'm gonna find something to eat for dinner.

Have a good night!



That's all for now! See you next time!

A Twinkle in the Dark: Lolita Dark CD Review! [ 08-22-2012 ]


Hello, lil bunnies! Today is a new "What's In the Box Wednesday". Inside the box are a lot of goodies from my new favorite band - Lolita Dark! If you are looking for good and pure rock music with a mix of Japanese and English, then this band is for you.



A few weeks ago, a Twitter user had contacted me with a direct message, asking me if I wanted to hear some of her friend's band's work. I said sure, why not! I am so glad she did. I have been hooked since then.



Lolita Dark is a rock band from California. (And they dress in Gothic Lolita too! I love it!) It consists of: two Japanese singers - Ray (Vocals/Guitar) and May (Vocals/Keyboard), Rain Balen (Bass), Patrick Cabrera (Lead Guitar) and Joey Felix (Drums).

More often times than not, whenever I buy a CD I'm disappointed and only like maybe 2-3 songs out of a CD that's holding at least 10 songs. I am very happy to say that this is not the case here.



Tokyo Status, Lolita Dark's first album, displays a very good portfolio of the variety the band shows they can do. When looking for music in the rock genre, my biggest problem is finding something with a good melody and guitar that can keep up with the drums and the vocals. I love the fact there is harmony and it's beautiful.

The tracks on the CD are:

Zesshou
All Tyranny
Who's the One
Death to Iris
Insane
Legacy
Girls
Nothing At All
Tokyo Status
Mad Times

They're all really great tracks. Though if I had to choose my top favorite, it would probably have to be a tie between "Zesshou" and "Legacy". "Zesshou" just has the most catchy sound and I always find myself singing along to it. And "Legacy" makes me want to make an AMV.



Along with the CD, I also got a thank you card written by actual members of the band, business cards and this gorgeous signed poster! I am super happy with the package they sent me. And it feels so personal too! I feel very lucky to actually have been in contact with them because they're so nice and the friend that introduced me to them is just as sweet.

So definitely check them out! You can hear samples of their songs and more on their site ♥ Lolita Dark ♥.



Thank you so much, Lolita Dark! I wish you guys all the best and make your dreams come true.

Until Next Time~

Cuddles & Kisses,
