Everytime the subject of "the best japanese bassist" comes to the table, Misaki should be mentioned.
He is fantastic!
@@GlassMoonGaming "she" đ
@@GlassMoonGaming
Misaki is very much a woman.
Nice reaction
As other mentioned, "re:program" is really in the math rock style. The "song "kyokugen wa setsuna" was the first song I've heard by them, two years ago and I became an instant fan. They don't automatically stick to math rock. They have ballads "white for", atmospheric rock "brilliant city", metal "METALIN", math rock "Lament moment", "vermisst" or masterpieces "complicated system". The catchy part with them are always the vocals witch are basically pop. But it might change for their future songs with the addition of the new member on drums who can sing and growl. In the past, Sokoninaru were considered a two piece band because they only had (amazing) session drummers. One year ago, they added a the first official drummer of the band. You can see him on some of their newest songs like "brilliant city" or "vermisst".
On Sokoninaru's official CZcams page, they are doing covers regularly and they're also showing how to play their songs with playthroughs or even with some lessons. They also have videos where they're showing their gear (instruments, amplifiers and a lot of effect pedals!).
Thanks for this reaction
Sweet! I added!
They not focused on the mathcore part, they just literally progressive. They have a couple song that really math, and some song just rock. Check out more the complicated one "Sokoninaru - Reprogram" Thanks for the reaction
Thanks!
Which ones are math? All their sheet music I've seen is 4/4.
@@delbomb3131 I don't think any of their songs are math rock all the way through. They incorporate math rock and its ideas into a lot of their songs, but they don't adhere to any one genre. That's what makes them perpetually interesting to me: they've basically created their own genre.
@@srhiers29 they definitely run wild with as much as they could possibly fit into 4/4 structure, but to be math, it specifically needs non standard time signatures which to my knowledge I've never seen them use. Kinda similar to polyphia in that fact, people frequently mislabel their music as math, but a big part of how polyphia maintains their digestible sound is sticking to 4/4 regardless of how difficult they write the riffs to fill it.
@@delbomb3131 I think they might have a few measures of nonstandard time signatures in some of their songs; "Complicated System", "Tenohira De Odoru" and "re:program" are a few that I think do it, but I haven't seen the sheet music so I can't be sure. Though, the Polyphia comparison is apt: I've been calling these guys "Polyphia on meth" for quite some time. Or, given that these guys came before Polyphia, it might be better to say Polyphia is slowed down Sokoninaru.
Finally at Sokoninaru :)
Lament Moment and Re:program are my favorites, but everything they do is pretty awesome, the more "normal" songs included, just a great, very creative three-piece.
Added!
Hi! I'm from Japan.
"Soko ni Naru"
Soko = There
Naru = It's ringing
It's ringing there.
The impression I get from that is that they perform even if no one is watching.
" Goh ni Moyu"
Goh = karma =
It is a Buddhist term meaning that if you do good, there will be good results; if you do bad, there will be bad.
It means that there are always consequences for actions.
Moyu = burn
The impression I get from this whole song is as follows.
We have small happiness every day, but we never get to the result we really want to get.
I don't even know what kind of result I really want, but I feel unfulfilled.
So, small happiness kills me.
But the state of not getting it and suffering from it keeps me alive.
Awesome! Thanks so much!
Glad to see a great reaction to my favorite band. This song is pretty middle of the road in terms of complexity. They have less complex songs, but the more complex ones are "re:program," "Tenohira De Odoru," and my favorite song by them, "Complicated System." I'd love to see more reactions to their stuff if you get the chance. Either way, again, I'm glad to have seen this one.
Awesome! I added them to my list too!
"GOU NI MOYU" is a Japanese four-character idiom that means to be passionately devoted to one's work or business with great enthusiasm. Literally interpreted, "GOU" refers to work or business, and "çă" means to burn brightly, indicating a fervent and single-minded approach. This phrase suggests the importance of energetic effort and unwavering determination in achieving success, emphasizing the need to pursue one's goals with a strong sense of commitment.
Thanks for that!
Like this band and was glad when then made the drummer a permanent/official member.
They definitely rocked! Thanks!
This drummer left in April/May 2021. The current permanent drummer wasn't in anything related to them until the Vermist video but it's not his audio on the recording. The old drummer had already recorded the Vermist album prior to leaving iirc. The newest stuff releasing is finally him.
"Brilliant City" is a more "normal" song and is awesome.
I'm not particularly a fan of the band, but the song title caught my eye. It refers to the concept of karma, and uses a literary form of the verb "to burn". The lyrics are full of angst. In contrast to J-Pop, Japanese bands that play hard music will often go literary and/or religious in their song titles and/or lyrics. This aspect can be unappreciated by non-Japanese listeners. The same is true going the other way: How would you translate "spring clean for the May Queen" from Zep's "Stairway" into Japanese and make any sense? Well, there's always the music.
Awesome! Thanks for the info!
This makes a lot of sense given that at least the guitarist and the bassist attended a Buddhist university.
@@srhiers29 I was aware that guitarist Juko attended a Buddhist university but not that bassist Misaki did. I notice that some time ago Misaki tweeted the well-known phrase from a Pure Land Buddhist sutra---ćçĄéżćŒ„éä»---praising the AmitAbha Buddha. That doesn't necessarily mean she's Buddhist, of course, but there do seem to be Buddhist references in some of their lyrics.
@@otobokegaijin6218 could be wrong about Misaki. Thought they met there, but I'm not 100% certain.
A more pure math rock band that still makes for accessible listening is JYOCHO. They use non-standard time signatures but everything is written in a way where it makes sense to even people that don't have full knowledge of music theory. Bonus they have a flautist in the band. I would recommend checking out JYOCHO "Circle of Life" first.
If you like Jyocho, check out their predecessor Uchu Conbini. "Pyramid" is a fantastic song by them.
Awesome! Added them!
SOKONINARU are amazing, the content they put into each song just musically amazing,
And apart from their originals they also do covers usually 1 a week on CZcams always putting their own spin on the original,
That's awesome! I might just have to check out some covers!
@@GlassMoonGaming hereâs a couple of suggestions. Firstly a live mash up of 3 songs played simultaneously somehow creating a new song just incredible czcams.com/video/l9hZHUUcS-c/video.html
And this other suggestion just a lovely catchy cover done with class and a great looping segment czcams.com/video/fdvQ36I9Kbw/video.html
Yeah this song is mostly in 4/4, but then again odd time signatures isn't what makes a song math rock or not.
I agree, not a all. Sometimes, it's even more confusing than just weird time signatures! Thanks!
YESSSSSSSSS! đ€Żđ
WooHoo!
Amazing band, and such nice people too.
Nice!
There's an interview where the band says that the guitarist writes all the parts including the drums, and that the drummers always complain that it's impossible for a human to play (but still end up playing it in the end lol). They've also gone thru a couple of drummers haha.
LOL awesome! Thanks!
melodic math rock I'd say
Like algebra? LOL
If you like to count time signatures, try "Re:program".
Definitely on my list! Thanks!
I think you nailed it when you said that their genius is the writing in 4/4 but making it sound like it's not. I'm reasonably confident this is entirely 4's, but Im not 100% sure, counting doesn't come naturally to me. Either way, the amount of creativity and variation they pack into the songs while still making it incredibly listenable, it's astounding. I recommend checking out 'Vermisst', 're:program' and 'Brilliant City' but all of their music is honestly awesome. They also just released 'Saitei' a couple of days ago if you want to get in early on the new stuff đđ€
Awesome! Definitely plan on checking out more!
i like your video cause youâre honest to the music review. I like your style.
Thank you!
Your intro music sounds like BLUE STAHLI ???
If so Iâm a fan
I actually don't know who it's by. It was a copyright free track that I found in an audio package inside my editing software. I liked it so I used it! Thanks!
Sokoni Naru New one comming !
czcams.com/video/rLkPZWJ4Iv0/video.html
Awesome! Thanks!
They have more and less complicated songs. Evidently.
Sounds good to me!
Oh, you've opened up another wormhole. These three are outstanding, and it's worth checking out more of them. But this is not as "math-y" as it gets. For a true math-rock band, check out Tricot: czcams.com/video/P_B_GalsJrE/video.html I know you are skeptical about math rock based on previous experiences, but this is extremely catchy. It's NOT in 4, but they use rotating time signatures in a way that creates a real groove.
Thanks!
