Kiss released a collaboration single with Momoiro Clover Z, titled "Yume no Ukiyo ni Saitemina" (January, 2015).
Momoiro Clover Z have collaborated with overseas artists. * Billboard Japan Hot 100 number one Albums No. There were some other members before releasing the debut CD:ĭiscography Singles No. On stage, the members can be easily found by the colors of their clothes. For example, Marty Friedman played the guitar for "Mōretsu Uchū Kōkyōkyoku Dai 7 Gakushō «Mugen no Ai»" ( 猛烈宇宙交響曲・第七楽章「無限の愛」), one of the singles, and also appeared on the group's concert. The group has worked with many famous songwriters and musicians, belonging to different genres of music, from pop to punk and heavy metal. Overall, the group and its music are progressive and forward-thinking. Nevertheless, they never lipsynch on stage. Because of the hard dances, the girls' voices are not very stable. The response from the audience is also enthusiastic. The group is known for their chaotic energy that is similar to that of punk bands. Their live performances are heavily choreographed and acrobatic. Momoclo's songs are "hyperactive J-pop numbers". This definitely lived up to the hype.Kanako Momota, the leader, is famous for performing Shrimp Jump ( エビぞりジャンプ) Each song made an impact without outstaying its welcome. In the end 5th Dimension had plenty for hardcore fans and the uninitiated to appreciate. It covers the group’s vocal flaws a lot more with its dramatic production. Go with Tsuku to Gingami Hikousen if you need to slow things down a bit. Neither Hai to Diamond or Tsuki to Gingami Hikousen can be considered ear bleeding but they are not great either. After listening to both it’s obvious that slower songs are not among Momoiro Clover Z’s strong points. It’s not an all out assault on your ears on 5th Dimension and there are 2 ballads present to give the listener a break from the insanity. My Filipino peeps know what’s up in regards to that statement and that can either be good or bad depending on the image that pops into your mind. Imagine the old folks getting their groove on to this. This would also be appropriate within the whole Jive Bunny type of music as well. Get Down on the other hand has a bit of a swing beat type of groove. Normally idols rapping is fairly awful but Momoiro Clover Z manage to sound on point, switching from dropping idol thuggery to singing catchy hooks rather seamlessly. But if you can get past that you are in for a real treat as there is a lot to take in beyond the previously released singles.ĥ To The Power has the group attempting to channel their inner MC as they rap over a funky Hip-Pop beat. That may be jarring for those who like a bit of consistency in their idol music or cannot process multiple shifts in the short span of the typical idol song. For the uninitiated that means a mish-mash of genres most likely chosen by throwing darts at a dart board. If we go along that line of thinking then yes, 5th Dimension is a huge success with many of the songs following the bombastic aural assault that Momoiro Clover Z is known for. In the end does it really matter? Idol music is meant to be fun and easily digested so who cares about what the concept is? Reading other reviews on the Internet apparently I am not the only one lost on what message Momoiro Clover Z were trying to convey. There is a concept but I certainly did not pick up on what it was. That is rather deceiving after listening to the entire thing in order. Much of the hype started with the release of the video Mouretsu Uchu Koukyoukyoku Dai 7 Gakushou Mugen no Ai and the follow ups NEO Stargate and Birth 0 Birth which indicated that the album would have a space opera theme. With that said, their second full-length album 5th Dimension was highly anticipated before its release back in April. Known for their hyperactive music and performances the group is noted for bringing the archaic energy of a punk band with every appearance. If you are not familiar with them you should be as they are touted as the next “big thing” in the Japanese idol landscape, poised to challenge the larger organizations such as UP-FRONT’s Hello! Project and the current “big thing” AKB48.
