Anyone heard of this group? I've only listened to one of their songs, "Haruka Kanata", and they sound so awesome!!

Well, i know them, but can't say i've listened to much of their music yet. I've heard one single, which was pretty ok. Not sure if i like the voice of the vocalist.

Whee~! Reviving old threads is fun ^_^
I've recently discovered AKFG and have been quite addicted to them for the past month or so. My favorite songs of the moment are "Kimi to iu Hana" and "Re: Re:"

I think I have most of their discography tucked away on my computer and random mixed cds. I should probably go and buy one of their albums ^^;;;
Actually I should... if for the only reason of really nifty cover art *-*

For a second there I didn't know what AKFG stood for and then it came to me just as I was about to ask...xb

lol i think maybe that flow is just uber un-famous? :? but they are funny XD
No, they're pretty famous... just not on an AKFG level yet, and they really haven't been promoted to the Western J-Pop/anime audience as much. I didn't even realize they had an anime tie-in song...
I only know them for their punk/ska cover of the great '80s song "Okuru kotoba" (originally by Kaientai), which is quite awesome...
:cool:

I only like "Loop and Loop". It's a good song though when I frist heard it I didn't like it because it sounded a bit too Western to me. Lol. :relief:

Mar 16, 2005, 08:43
i got into AKFG because of Naruto ^^
Horizon
Mar 16, 2005, 08:47
I think I got into them because someone (more than likely Lydia) mentioned them somewhere in one of her rants I do so believe and I got curious and looked them up.
mizerable_d
Mar 16, 2005, 08:48
lol ya i got into Moi Dix Mois thanks to Lydia as well ^^
Horizon
Mar 16, 2005, 08:51
Wow...Lydia's more helpful than we thought, huh? I think we should give her more credit, besides from, well, being Lydia...Hmm...xDD

lol i love the volcalist of AKFG lol he's so cute ^^

Yeah, he is, but...He needs to shave. DESPERATELY! And I like the drummer I'm pretty sure he is; he's the hottest of them all! xDDDD

I still haven't heard much from them though...-pouts- Although I have quite a bit of their videos; they're REALLY bad quality and I don't know which is which, so I don't ever watch them, but still...Mou...
PrincessBerriKiller
Mar 17, 2005, 00:25
I have a hunch that they may be doing something in the U.S. in the near future...But I could be wrong. Im just wondering though...*-*

Do you think so? Man, I wish Gackt would come over here or something. In the States he would do better than Canada but that's not the point. Someone should tour over here!
mizerable_d
Mar 17, 2005, 07:10
i wish PLC can come to one of the Candaian cons T_T
PrincessBerriKiller
Mar 17, 2005, 12:27
Wow. by the way you talk I wouldn't even think you had cons...O.O haha but PLC seems American toured out right now. Gackt is a long shot at a con...with some of his songs *cough* Vanilla *cough* the lyrics aren't child friendly and nor are the performances....*shakes head...* He did however do the theme for Technolyze....so...*shrugs*
MHtrStevie
Mar 17, 2005, 22:31
If you're bringing up Gackt anime connections, don't forget that both Lu:na and Oasis were used as themes for the new Hokuto no Ken OVAs... so he has multiple anime credits.
Of course, the other thing to remember is that Tofu Records has been responsible for some of the BIG acts showing up at cons like Otakon (TM Revolution and L'arc~en~ciel)... and Tofu is the US arm of Sony. So unless Gackt is on the Sony label, the chances of him coming to a con is much less. There's a higher chance of seeing some of the current big Sony acts, like AKFG or Orange Range...
Nightwalker
Mar 18, 2005, 03:13
Wow. This sucks. But, his lyrics are so beautiful are good. Crap so it's okay for these rap videos with these sluttly, skanky chicks all over men but....no fanservice? He's PV's are good anyways to air. Heh heh. Not "Illuminati" though. XD That will never air on Canadain nor American tele EVER! Well, I don't see the problem since the media today is so skanky...

I like some of their songs...and the loop and loop pv is on anime network under Bento Beatbox. Thats how I found about them last weeek *anime junkie*
yeah, their music is cool, but they're not very pretty. One of them looks like someone who works at the restaraunt down the street from my house, ^_^, lol

Ditto, ditto. It's a nice, little break from constant visual kei-ness...Not that, that's bad or anything! It's just kind of nice to have something there to brea out of the "norm". :relief:

Jun 8, 2005, 10:09
Why bother? You can order them online can't you?
Yes, but it's less of a hassle to buy them at a nearby music store. Also, it gets Ajikan more publicity and more open to the general, non-Japanese public. I also want tehir CDs to be released in teh US so then there's a greater chance of other Ajikan products being realeased as well (i.e. Masafumi Posters :love: )

Buying things online even is expensive, but Dir en grey CDs, in Edmonton at least, are like $50 at A&B Sound! Iprefer ordering online, at least their like... 15-20 bucks cheaper... but it's still outrageous, to me anyways...
I love Asian Kung-Fu Generation!
I've heard... Rewrite, Loop and Loop, Rasuto Shiin, Kimi to Iu Hana, and Kona Yuki, I like them all too... I first heard Rewrite from the anime Full Metal Alchemist though... really good too!

The album from AKFG, it's called 'Fanclub'. :)

Mar 27, 2006, 20:38
got all the albums lying around. They are pretty good, but I do prefer alot of other bands. My favourite song would probably be Siren.
The reason that I like this band is that they combine soft rock with pop which is nice every now and then. Also the vocals is good, but not as good as The Back Horn (to name another band in almost the same genre)
Kinsao

Does anyone know if they are currently touring?
I think they may be, unless I heard wrong. It was on a forum while I was searching for info on them (so typical I don't know link XD). They probably are only touring in Japan tho, unless they are going to America, maybe with tofu like HYDE is. :-)

I love "Rewrite," and "Kimi To Iu Hana."
Rewrite, I first heard as the theme song to Fullmetal Alchemist.. (my favorite anime)
Then I got into the band after that, because my friend was obsessed with them. <3

Oh wow! Cool!!!! I was taught by my friend how to play the guitar, but then I stopped. It's my dream to play like Masafumi does. :( You're so lucky... I hope your dream comes true ^_^
Tailsop
Oct 9, 2006, 12:08
I Hope so but i dont have a band yet and you should continue playing its really a cool experence playing the guitar. and the songs i can play are loop & loop, Rewright, and Shindo-Kaku.
Nesi_Saiyuki
Oct 9, 2006, 13:08
cool! Nah, I stopped playing 'cause the one who was supposed to teach me is mad at me at the moment. So if I see a guitar I either remember that or Masafumi... depending on my mood.. Maybe I'll continue when she has gotten over it. ^_^

yay AFKG not a lot of ppl listen to them I think but I have a lot of their songs anyway. I like them very much. A friend of mine looks like Masafumi (vocals) when he straightens his hair. They do a lot of anime themes so those are the easiest ones to find.
