Following on From Doll$Box

I asked my contact in gun-toting USA if he’d ever heard of Doll$box and he sent me the following advisory:

“Doll$Boxx was a one-time-only unit with members of Gacharic Spin + the lead singer of LIGHTBRINGER.

This was result of Gacharic Spin touring with different lead singers after their own singer suddenly quit the band before a scheduled tour. They liked [F]uki best and created an album & videos to capitalize on the momentary popularity. No plans for reunion or tour so far. Lot of different labels/management involved”

Bugger. I really liked the singer; she’s got one hell of a voice.

Mr Contact continues:

“Fuki is great — recommend checking out the LIGHT BRINGER videos for her best work (epic keyboards too)”

 

He’s not wrong. The keyboards really are epic!

 

Yeah yeah I know the formatting is totally screwed on this post. Sometimes WordPress likes to be a douche bag.

Doll$ Box Are My New BiS

Doll$ Box have been around for ages and ages (2012) but I’ve never paid them much attention until researching interview questions for Broken Doll. And I hate to admit it: this band is fucking awesome.

Merrily High Go Round (above) is a case in point; a super well crafted song with solid instrumentals (yes, that guitar solo modulates all over the place) and world class vocals courtesy of classically trained Fuki.

Maybe not as heavy as BandMaid, but with -I think – better song writing, I wish I’d listened to more of Doll$ Box a bit sooner.

Album Doll$ Apartment is on my playlist ‘natch along with BiS, BABYMETAL, BandMaid and er, Cliff Richard.

Hook me up on Twitter, bitches.
