The Idol Thread

[FIRSTKLAS]

^Haha, yeah, that's the same group I mentioned in the second post.

Tokyohive posted a story earlier in the month that sums up the news about their first single pretty well (covers, tracklists, etc.) and I had meant to repost the info here but I wasn't sure how to go about it since it was already written so well.

I'm not sure how I feel about Fairies yet. I like that they're from Vision Factory (so you can trust that they'll be trained really well) and how they're doing an R&B-influenced sound but I'm a little weary because they're so young. It's not that I think it's inappropriate or anything and I do understand that their ages are so that they can grow and have longevity as a group (since they're probably not going to have graduations) but it also feels like they're too young to really sell the image and sound they're presenting. I'm worried it's gonna be like "Mini Pops" versions of J-R&B hits for the first few years. :/

Anyway...

SUPER GiRLS are going to be releasing their third single "Joshiryoku Paradise" on October 5, 2011 (one week after their first concert DVD) and the PV is already up on YouTube:



The discography section at their official site has covers and tracklists up for all four editions. The radio drama version features "Jenny" dolls posed as the girls on the cover. When I first saw them, I was a little freaked out because I thought the girls were wearing doll masks or something. :S

Overall, I like the song. It's a good follow up to "MAX! Otome Gokoro".
