Yanakoto Sotto Mute Launch “Afterglow” MV and Digital Single

/ DAEMON

At midnight Japan time, Yanakoto Sotto Mute released the MV for their major label debut single, “Afterglow”. 

Bask in it.

It’s beautiful.

The costumes. The strings. Nade-chan eating a rose; Mani eating marbles; Ichika hitting the high notes; Tsukasa with a bucket on her head. It’s all gorgeously absurd and near perfection. Continue reading →

Yanakoto Sotto Mute Out of Nowhere!!

/ DAEMON

It has been a roller coaster of a morning in the alt-idol  breaking news department, but nothing is so welcome after the official departure of the original alt-Oshi than an international guerrilla release by Yanakoto Sotto Mute.

(Update: I have been informed that today’s release was first announced on YSM’s Twitter earlier this week and that I am not a true fan of the group.)

It’s already available on iTunes so why are you still here? 

Once again proving their designation as the Perfect Modern Idols , Yanamute’s unexpected album drop comes with the promise of an EP per month in the run up to Christmas.  “Stain”, the first track on this morning’s surprise offering, is a stunner, so  these are not b-side offerings but chill-inducing, A-Grade material.

So if this morning’s big news had you crying into your coffee, thanks to Yanamute we can now face the weekend with smiles on our faces. Happy freaking Friday!!
