No, not because they are westernized. I don't even really listen to western music besides a few songs and my beloved Britney, that's it. My music library is to 90% Japanese music.
But as much as I love Japan, its language, country and culture, I can't stand how idols with all their pseudo shyness und cuteness represent the perfect Japanese woman. That's why I would love to the see some fierce, cool and somehow tough idols to be successful and become some kind of role model. Would be a nice change for once.

I'm interested to see their solo activities.

I know Lil Fang was featured in this one song and it was pretty great. A different more rock side I think. And showed off her awesome voice.

I just listened to the album. It's an ok album, nothing special but catchy pop music. Did anybody else listened to it?

I was scrolling down on my instagram feed and randomly saw FAKY being sponsored and thought that was amusing. I listened to the small clip and it was a lot better than I remember them being so I checkout out their video later and I've been really enjoying their newer song Candy. I'm not surprise this thread died out in 2014 but figured I'd bump it up.

I think the girls need to work on their dancing though (Some a better than others), especially that blonde in the group, she dances (moves) so uninspiring, doesn't hit those beats hard. Anyway I'm glad they're getting some promotion here even if it is on instagram. The song is good

Oh, totally forgot FAKY had a thread here, lol.
They actually had sort of a small hiatus and came back last year with 3 new songs ( Afterglow, You and Candy -only on asian streaming sites though). They got reconsructed. 2 members of the old FAKY left (Tina and Diane) and 1 new is in (Akina).

They released PVs for all three new songs in the last months and now finally there's coming an EP on iTunes with the three comeback and 2 new songs!



FAKY
Digital E.P. "CANDY"
Available on 2016.05.24
※iTunes Pre-Order from 2016.05.11

1. Pretty
2. Afterglow
3. Are You OK?
4. You
5. Candy
6. Better Without You -Retake Version- ※Album purchase only track on iTunes

A digital booklet is included as well.

The great thing is, they're still marketed internationally - their site and their line is done in Japanese and English.

They also collaborated with FEMM on Sak Noel's "No Boyfriend" in Japanese and that's also where the new unit FAMM'IN comes from.

I personally like them better now, even though I listened to them since the beginning.
All three new songs are great. My fave is Afterglow and the PV for it is also really interesting.

Waiting for the first album!

Long time no post.
No matter if here or the Kuu thread or any other - I always wonder if I should post at all, cause if I don't get any reactions, I assume people are not interested.
At least it feels like it.

Anna officially left Faky yesterday at their 2nd one-man live to pursue a career as an actress.
At the same time they've added 2 new members, Hina and Taki.



They've also just released a mu-mo shop limited pysical single called "four". Both songs on it have anime/drama tie-ins again.
The DVD version includes the whole one-man live from last year in October!

Now because of the revelation with Anna, it's clear to me why we didn't get their first full album this Spring like they announced last year in the one-man live.
But they announced now with Anna leaving that they're going to release the album next summer!

Personally they turned into one of my fave artists.
Since the reboot I love every song released by them and Unwrapped is one of my favourite releases ever.
Their music now is so good!
Happy they still go on!

Three new dance songs were announced some time ago already.
The theme for all three is Girl Power and the first song called GIRLS GOTTA LIVE was already performed at a-nation Aomori.

https://faky.jp/sp/news/detail.php?id=1074960

a-nation's official Insta shared some footage of the performance:
https://www.instagram.com/p/B0Lt2krH...=1830p4zaplgm2

It's going to be available August 23!

Kudos to Avex for sticking by the group and trying new music in spite of the apathy towards them.

A bit repetitive at parts, but another good song!
