#BUMP OF CHICKEN ANSWER TV#
First single of theirs to chart in the top ten, and a TV drama was centered around it. Last year of middle school (9th grade in Japan)
This lineup has remained constant until now Middle school, but the original bassist and drummer left and were replaced in 2004. This is NOT to be taken seriously whatsoever – in my mind the two bands are as different as they can be, but if you really want to draw some parallels for the sheer heck of it…Įnjoy Cybacle’s Awesome Chart of Comparage…Ī derpy attempt at translating “cowards strike back” or “attack of the cowards” that just stuckĪn intentional compounding of “rad” and “wimp”, a term they intended to mean “excellent weakling” or “superlative coward”Įlementary school, they first met in kindergarten
#BUMP OF CHICKEN ANSWER SERIES#
Several of the tracks were used as theme songs for anime series 'Gekkou' was used as the. The lead single, 'Aria', was released in mid-2016. It debuted atop the Oricon Albums Chart, selling 202,157 copies in its first week. Their music does have emotional value, but sometimes they are just out to have fun.īut, because everyone loves comparing things no matter what, I came up with a side-by-side chart just for kicks. Aurora Arc is the ninth studio album by Japanese band Bump of Chicken, released through Toy's Factory on July 10, 2019. RADWIMPS is fresh and innovative – they keep pushing boundaries by experimenting with different styles. BUMP OF CHICKEN is all about nostalgia – from the contemplative lyrics to the slightly dated arrangements to the tried and true yet never tired melodies, they have mastered that delicate balance of hope and melancholy. The keywords I associate with these two bands’ sounds are completely different.
And thus, accusations of Noda attempting to emulate Fujiwara’s writing style began…ĭo I personally find any similarities between the two bands? Well, both write songs that are catchy with meaningful lyrics, but the resemblances end there. Someone told me this was because of some interview, in which RADWIMPS’ frontman Noda Youjirou said something about admiring and respecting BUMP’s Fujiwara Motoo. So, a disconcerting amount of BUMP OF CHICKEN and RADWIMPS fans like to compare the two and argue about which band is better or silly stuff like that.
