SCANDAL ~Japanesse GirlBand~

Hello..
This time I want to write some info about SCANDAL..
No, I'm not talking about any celebrity scandal, of course.. I'm not a girl that like to talk about that.. :P
What I want to tell is the Japanesse GirlBand named SCANDAL..

Maybe you're already heard their name.. One of their song that choosen as an anime song is "Shunkan Sentimental" (one of my fave from them XD~) that choosen as Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood 4th ED.. Also there's "Shoujo S" as Bleach 10th OP, "Koshi Tan-tan" and "Sayounara My Friend" respectively as OP and ED of Loups-Garous, and "Pride" as Star Driver ~Kayaki no Takuto~ 2nd ED..

Me too know them from my little brother who happened to be their big fans *laugh..

Mostly their song having a rock or pop genre and thus make them known as a powerfull GirlBand, but with cute style by always wearing a Japanesse trademark uniform as their stage costume.

An interesting note about the group is the unique way in which they chose to promote themselves. Since they are fans of Japanese animation and manga, they wanted to be represented in animated form, turning each member into an animated character. The animated SCANDAL is featured on a series of promotional videos on the band's website.

their latest single (10th single) Haruka


The member : 
1. Haruna Ono : HARUNA, the eldest among the group and also serves as the leader. A girl who had a passion for dancing and dreamed of becoming a dancer, but things changed when she met her co-members and eventually took on a rock n’ roll path. But the influence of dance stayed, the reason why some of their PV, choreography can be seen. HARUNA has the most powerful and deep voice that usually leads in their songs combined with the voices of the other 3 members.
2. Mami Sasazaki : MAMI, the lead guitarist and serves that role very well. She has awesome and cool guitar skills that makes her fans more amaze. She appears serious and kinda dark in stage that is different from the other members, but it turns extremely opposite offstage – as she shows a very cheerful personality. Also among the group, she’s the biggest fan of Japanese Anime. She also has very noticeable solo parts in their songs because of her soft-punkish voice.
3. Rina Suzuki : RINA, the youngest among the group and serves as the drummer. A girl that always has a smile painted on her face when performing – showing that performing and music is nothing but love. She’s also a cheerful and bubbly person as seen in their live interviews with the reactions she shows. Also among the 4 of them, she is the most active in their blog, making sure that fans is always updated to her and the group.
4. Tomomi Ogawa : TOMOMI, the bass and writer of majority of their songs. Like HARUNA, she also dreamed of becoming a dancer but rock n’ roll opened a new path. Her dancing skills can be observed while performing with her amazing and graceful movements despite the fact that she is carrying a huge bass. TOMOMI has a very sweet and kinda “chipmunky” voice that is easy to like, together with HARUNA, their voices becomes a very perfect combo. She’s also the one that usually leads in solo parts of their songs.


Well, until next time
Ja~
