April Fool’s Day triggers the start of a visual-kei band
Takano: I am also interested in visual-kei bands. I heard that they started their activities on Corona Disaster under the name “Various Crosses.
Hatsuno: We started our activities on April Fool’s Day, April 2020, when we were 31 years old.
Celeina: I saw the arphotos on Spotify, and they are a solid visual-kei band. You can’t imagine that from today’s attire.
Hatsuno: It’s cool, isn’t it? Aesthetically pleasing.
Takano: Aesthetic (laughs). What was the inspiration for this?
Hatsuno: It was inspired by something my mother wrote on …….
Takano: That’s definitely a lie (laughs).
Hatsuno: The truth is, I had originally been working on a lying project for April Fool’s Day since about 2018. I lied about producing a dog idol. The 2020 version of that was the reason why I wanted to do Visual Kei.
Takano: But you are still active in this project?
Celeina: So it’s no longer April Fool’s Day?
Hatsuno: That’s right. It has become a reality. That’s funny.
Takano: That’s funny too (laughs). But yesterday, Hao Hao Hao said that he is a person who keeps doing something that sounds like a joke at a high quality, so it makes sense. Visual-kei bands also continue to do things at a high quality. It’s amazing.
Celeina: Now, I would like to send you a song, and I asked Tinkerbell Hatsuno-san to choose a song that we would all like to hear on the radio at this time. What song would it be?
Hatsuno: It’s a kind of cool song.
Celeina: Please introduce the song.
Hatsuno: “Finalboss” by KAMIYA.
Celeina: Tinkerbell Hatsuno-san chose the song “Finalboss” by KAMIYA.
Takano: Cool!
Celeina: KAMIYA, I just recently went into the studio with you to write a song.
Hatsuno: I didn’t know you knew each other.
Celeina: Where did you come across KAMIYA’s music?
Hatsuno: It happened to be at the top of YouTube.
Takano: Algorithmic? (laughs)
Hatsuno: Algorithmic.
Celeina: The dance video for “Finalboss” is super cool. You should watch it as well as the song.
