Zone is incredibly musically and instrumentally. They're also one of the few groups which I liked from the first time I heard them and never disliked a single song after that.
Please share your thoughts on Zone.
-
Hell yeah! ZONE was a true girl band. T.T It just sucks that hey disbanded though :( but anyway, I love their style of songs. Great guitars and drums and voices :D:D:D
-
I downloaded those, and I really liked them. Need to d/l more later :)
-
They certainly are talented, great sounding songs. My favourite song of theirs will always be Secret Base. The PV of it is so sad, could bring the strongest person to tears! As Hamasaki_Yoshizawa said, ZONE really were the true girl band!
-
Ahh Zone. How I miss thee!
Poor Tomoka got screwed. She was only in the group for around a year.
I'll still be supporting Miyu in her pop carrer though. I thought her first two singles were great.
-
I already miss ZONE...I want the old ZONE from 2001 back. :cry:
-
I really like their Sotsugyou (Graduation), Daibakuhatsu (Big Explosion), and Boku no Tegami (My Letter). Sometimes I turn up the music in my room just to hear the powerful bass, hehe. I'm a sucker for all girl bands and groups :D XD XD
-
ZONE! YES!
True Blue for Zone, naturally...
I just wanted to say that.
I really, really miss them. I'll listen to Miyu, of course, and I hope that some of them (Tomoko, perhaps? that's just a guess) continue to perform...
-
Whoa, how come I've never noticed this thread? ... o.o
ZONE are awesome.... I want them back, along with Takaya. ._. Has anyone preordered their ZONE Final in Budokan DVD?
-
Zone rules! I just recently d/led the Zone Potaju eps. That Mizuho's one crazy bitch! :lol:
-
Zone rules! I just recently d/led the Zone Potaju eps. That Mizuho's one crazy bitch! :lol:
Aww, I wanna see :3
Mitai~
I've only some of their lives, PVs and songs only. What's this show about?
-
Whoa, wait... They have a show? I'm missing out! :shock:
-
its just a variety show where they do random crap.. and sometimes they perform a song (i dunno about this, they might do it every epsode, but ive only seen a couple).
the show didnt really have a name, and on the first episode they picked it from a spinning wheel :lol:
Takayo threw the dart and it landed on ZONE Potaju.
there were some weird names people sent in, i wanted ZONE na Banana :P
-
Can you upload it sometimes? :D:D:D
-
Yeah, she says something about Hokkaido and she really likes to listen to it [Secret Base], something or the other (Doko wa Philosoranter desu ka? lol).
Oh and ZONE is all from Hokkaido also aren't they?
-
Oh and ZONE is all from Hokkaido also aren't they?
Yep. From Sapporo.
-
Huzzah, I just finished the 4GB torrent that's being shared over at Jpopsuki. I'd buy all 3 of them if I wasn't broke, so I'm just getting the ZONE Final DVD.
Anyway, Miyu is love. <3
-
Wow, that must have taken a loooooong time, desu ne?
What's inside the Final DVD?
-
Yeah, 3 days. :P
Well, as far as I know, it's their last concert that was on April 1st.
-
the final dvd is the last performance at Budokan.. and the limited edition comes with a backstage pass replica, oooohh.
i dont have money to buy the clips dvds either.. but ive had the final dvd on preorder for like 2 months :lol:
cmon June 22nd!!
-
Hahaha, I preordered mine! *jumps up and down clutching my order number*
I had a coupon for Y500 off of cdjapan, so I got it from there. Too bad I didn't look at yesasia before I ordered it tho - it would have been cheaper there, BEFORE the coupon. :evil:
-
better bring this back up..
so has anyone seen the final concert dvd? i just watched it. it was freaking amazing. amazing doesnt even cut it.. words cannot describe watching it.
the solos that lead into Akashi was just.. wow. they really play instruments and they play it well.
-
I have an uncontrollable urge to download it, but I'm still waiting for my copy. And after boykun's post, I don't know if I can endure it any longer...
-

Yeah, me too. Hopefully it won't take as long as my Rakuten Eagles jersey - which has taken over 2 months now.
-
i've had my dvd for over a week and still haven't had enough time to watch the whole concert :(
-
Woot!!! ZONE!!!
They were my favorite girl band. I loved their music and loved the fact they played instruments. I also loved their Beatles tribute performances. The Engrish was quite cute.
Man I wish they would get back together. :(
-
:w00t:
-
Thanks for the uploads harlock
They're so stupid in the show.. but its cute :p
-
anybody here a hardcore ZONE fan?
-
Here! Here!
And thanks harlock! :)

two basses :shock: certainly interesting.. but Maiko came back :cry: fffoooooooo~!
-
WTdoubleF!! MAIKO!!!! and whatthecrap is Maria?? harlock is confuzzled :o
-
Maria is the new Maiko's girls band. They'll debut in February 2006, Maiko will be on the bass and vocal. :)
(Credit : Santos (http://santoslove.exblog.jp/) for those infos)
-
I'm glad to see she's doing something. Hopefully it will be good. :)
-
MAIKOOOOOOOOOOOO~!!
Twin bassists, vocalists and guitarists. 2x of 3 things I like.
-
Mariaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.....waiting for February 2006
-
I remember the first time I listened to them , I like them immediately.
That was their debut single - Good Days. Somehow cuz of their age, they remind me of SPEED. I really like the their performances, always full of energy. And my favourite member is Miyu chan.
To me the song that took them to the next level, is Akashi. When that song first came out, alot of fans cannot accept the image it projects. A more moody and adult ZONE...but I love it. It is still one of my top ZONE song to date.
It was sad to see the group disband. They still have so much potential.
-
Somehow cuz of their age, they remind me of SPEED.
Yet, unlike SPEED, ZONE can sing.
For me, my favorite ZONE song is Secret Base. The depth and maturity of the song is startling considering that it comes from 13 year olds. The entire album Z is sublime. Not only is the production of each song top notch, the song layout is perfect. The atmosphere that each song creates merges perfectly with the following song, and the instrumental piano arrangement of Secret Base is the perfect ending piece. The album is a masterpiece.
-
Maiko is in a new a band. Maria (http://www.maria-6.com/) will debut in February 2006. She looks really pretty in the photo on the site. Good luck to her and Maria.
-
Yet, unlike SPEED, ZONE can sing.
I disagree but I leave it at that. Since everyone has different standards on what is good singing and what is not. ^^
I draw comparision due to their young age at debut. ZONE and SPEED are totally different in their music anyway, so there is little to compare. I just enjoyed both alot.
-

You disagreed? Does that mean you agree now? :lol:
-

Not quite...LOL , I think both groups can sing...I enjoy their work on different levels. :D

i miss Zone
-
The PV for Chiisana Uta has finally been released! I'll be uploading it to the asshole soon, but in the meantime you can grab it from jpopsuki.
-
yeah, the PV is rockin! as is the song
-
I'll be uploading it to the asshole soon, but in the meantime you can grab it from jpopsuki.
damn i would've done it, but i obviously can't.
anyway, the pv is awesome. maiko is so cute~
and that guild sacchin was using is pretty sweet. i thought guild only makes acoustics. i want one of those o.o
-
Just watched MARIA's debut video and I really like it. I hope for the best to MARIA and look forward to a future album soon.
-
it would be cool if maria covered some old ZONE songs during their lives
-
I like Maria.
-
Maria is awesome.
-
I love them
-
ZONE fans will be happy with the following releases:
ura E - Complete B side Melodies - (Apr 19, 2006)
Fans voted for their favorite B-side songs of ZONE and the most popular ones will be included in this album
Zone Best Memorial Clips DVD - (May 24, 2006)
Their best PVs and rare clips of ZONE
-
I like Zone and Maria too
-
actually i prefer the b song of the single.
But i was also wondering how the hell can they have a concert tour with two songs only ?? either they'll sing zone songs or htey have an album release coming this summer
-
MARIA performed at least 2 more songs at their lives: Hachake and Tsubomi, I wouldn't be surprised if they had more in their sleeve.
Also, at their staff's blog it says they've rushed to work at 2nd single!
btw, who is everyone's favorite member? To make it more interesting, let's exclude Maiko who's obviously the reason you've noticed the group. So, mine's Ayuka (the blondie) :mrgreen:
-
I haven't seen that many interviews with them, but I like Sacchin. She's badass. :lol:
...omg and Aika is cute. She's doesn't look her age.
-
btw, who is everyone's favorite member?
mine's Ayuka
-

2nd Single from MARIA in July!
2006/7/26 つぼみ Tsubomi = Bud
映画“劇場版NARUTO大興奮!みかづき島のアニマル騒動だってばよ”主題歌
(NARUTO movie theme song, good tie-up!)
I happen to have a live recording of this song:
http://www.filepulse.org/files/140/aedon/MARIA_-_Tsubomi_Live.mp3
The quality is pretty bad, but you can tell the song rocks :P
-
Totally not related, I got the ZONE Final in Budokan
-
They need to stop with the anime themes. D: Not a fair way to keep promoting them.
-
b-side to Tsubomi, My Road
MARIA - My Road radio rip (http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=FC3A364712047954)
music by tattsu, lyrics by maria
-

Why not? It always works :/
Even Biyuden had an anime tie-up, but it wasn't as popular... so I think it's a good thing for MARIA, they might not have another chance like that :O
-

I guess it's not the promotion I disagree with, but with the fans it spawns.
They already debuted with 'Chiisana Uta' through another anime. Now they're hitting one of the most popular ones, which Viyuden/Berryz didn't. :O Maybe it's just me, but I get pretty annoyed with people labeling artists as an "anime band", and it's stuck there forever.

But it's life! I know a planty of great artists that are known only by certain group of otakus (like Amano Tsukiko and her PS2 game tie-ups), and while knowing the bad side of such promotion (people buying the music not because they like the artist, but because they like the product, and after the theme song is switched, they abandon the artist), I don't see anything wrong with it. Look at Tamaki Nami, she'd be nowhere near the place she is now without Gundam :O

I think another great example of this is Koda Kumi, she became huge after Real Emotion and FFX-2, and look at her now, she's a huuuge star in Japan and has had a major impact of the culture in japan.
-
Fair enough. :lol:
I think this'd spark a good discussion, anyone willing to create a thread?
-
From what I've heard, the new single isn't sounding too bad. It would be pretty awesome if they would release a really hard rocking song, but I guess the current stuff is good enough.
Request:
Anyone have a decent quality version of their performance on CDTV back in March? This one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqUuw8mnq0s

Cool song, cool video. Still can't stand that other bass player. It should just be Maiko... aahh, whatever. Hope their next song is fuckin' metal \m/.
-

Yeah, I really don't understand why they need TWO bass players. The lines they play aren't that different anyways, but Maiko does play some "lead" lines on bass in Chiisana Uta. LOL I'm not even making sense to myself.
-
Miyu from ZONE performed B☆B☆Q on the latest Music Station with TUBE and Aiuchi Rina that is part of "Nagisa no All Stars" compilation single. (http://www.neowing.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=AICL-1766)

Yeah, I really don't understand why they need TWO bass players.
because that's their 'thing', their USP? it makes for a good, bass-driven sound, which is not that common in j*pop.
-
could anyone post up that part of music station with miyu? even if she doesn't do much i'd still love to see it :D
-
because that's their 'thing', their USP? it makes for a good, bass-driven sound, which is not that common in j*pop.
I guess that's fair. I'm still holding out on that other chick until she throws in some Billy Sheehan-like bass lines. Now, how cool would that be? They should do a cover of "Addicted To That Rush"!
-

LOL Yeah, Maiko's lines are the ones that are most noticable, IMHO all that Aika seems to be playing are just the root notes that get drowned under all the guitar.
-
Now, how cool would that be? They should do a cover of "Addicted To That Rush"!
haha i actually remember this song! man i'm dating myself :lol:
but yeah i was watching the tsubomi PV and couldn't pick out the second bass line at all, maybe i just wasn't listening closely enough.

FASHION IS PASSION EVERYDAY, biotches :lol: Reina gets +1 too.

so glad they are releasing stuff and not going to disband!
thanks the huge pict aedon :D that's wallpaper quality stuff right there. except that sacchin scares me lol.
-
Damn, does every single have to be an anime song? Guess it's not gonna rock.
-
Anime songs may not be the best or rocking, but they're certainly a great way to promote, so I think we should be happy o_O; I mean, who would have cared about Maiko's new band except ZONE fans... mmmyeah.
-
I thought anime songs rocked most of the time?
-
I thought they're considered lame most of the time, which is not always (un)true :lol:
-
bumpin for da ZONE/MARIA (maiko) love XD
i still listen to ZONE even disbanded, and MARIA, while not quite up to the level ZONE was at (but then again MARIA's not as old as ZONE or had the time ZONE did to become popular), is still ok i guess
-
Wow, this thread has been dead for a while. And that's a pity.
I really miss Tomoka. :( She had incredible vocals, as seen in her solo song from N:
http://rapidshare.com/files/19458950/_asian_nation__ZONE_-_03.ROCKING.mp3.html
-
I really do need to look up more on ZONE, I've got all the albums and what-not and I really do like 'em but I haven't really paid all that much attention to them. It's a shame they split up but I just think that maybe they've had their day, I don't think the solo careers have sounded so promising to be honest. Still when they were around they were great and they made very little stuff which was below par, great band.
-
ZONE was and still is awesome
i like how MAIKO's new venture, MARIA is doing, and reina's chubby cheeks are sexy XD
-
I love zone, 'secret base' is my favorite. I still yet to complete the FULL-COLLECTION.. I only have "Z". I'm feeling a little bit paranoid that the fact I won't be able to find O,N,E due to my weird way of saving my money. I need to check up on cdjapan/yesasia when I'm out of my lazy coma.

Miyu is back.

http://www.sanspo.com/geino/top/gt200706/gt2007063001.html
Anyway, I haven't listened to the new MARIA album yet...
-
Album review'd up on nandake (http://nandake.com/).
-
MARIA's album isnt bad, but i wish they had their own sound instead of being ZONE lite.
-
I don't really think they sound that much like zone. But they do sorta have that general pop/rock sound in most of their songs that gets tired pretty quickly. My main gripe is that their vocals aren't all that great, something that I think would have made up for some of the downfalls of the album.
It was an alright album overall, but it just didn't seem to meet my expectations.
-
I had high expectations for the album but it turned out okay only. Nevertheless, I will continue to support them and hopefully things will be different for their next release.
-
My main gripe is that their vocals aren't all that great
Quite. Sacchin's voice just sounds flat and kinda bored in a bunch of the songs.
Also, Miyu returning is interesting, but is it me or does she look like a circus clown in that picture? I get chills if I look at it too long. >__>
-
lol circus clown? I guess she didn't really wear much make-up back when she was in zone, but it's not that bad. It's what most japanese girls her age look like now a days it seems
-
I've been listening to a bunch of Zone the past couple hours... I have no idea why, but I just decided to do it.
Man I miss them, they were so awesome. They don't have a single bad song. It seriously almost brought a tear to my eye listening to some of their songs. And secret base still chokes me up every time I hear it, just from the opening melody.
I used to concider them my favorite j-pop band and now I remember why.
It's funny though, I still haven't watched their final concert, and now I don't know if I could handle it.

It might be sad but I'm sure you can overcome it. The final concert is good. You should give it a go.
-
I think I realized why I'm like this. Unlike most Zone fans, I wasn't really around when all the stuff about their breaking up happened. I pretty much stopped listening to J-pop for a while around the time glory days was released. I guess somewhere in my mind that was still the zone I knew and it never really hit me that they broke up. For some reason I'm really feeling it now. XD
If I could find it for dl, I'll try to watch it. Either that, or until I could get the money to buy it and a region free dvd player (I'm broke) XD I don't really want to watch it on my small ass computer screen. :lol:

That's a pretty classic ZONE video, especially if you've seen the secret base PV.
-
I've been listening to a bunch of Zone the past couple hours... I have no idea why, but I just decided to do it.
Man I miss them, they were so awesome. They don't have a single bad song. It seriously almost brought a tear to my eye listening to some of their songs. And secret base still chokes me up every time I hear it, just from the opening melody.

It's worth watching.
I love ZONE too. They're still my favorite.
In some ways what happened can be seen as a blessing. They didn't linger, overstay their welcome, try to 'reinvent themselves' or devolve into mediocrity like usually happens.
ZONE left making the best music out there, and that's what they'll be remembered for.
-
My ZONE fandom is still as alive as it was when they were still releasing new music! Which is pretty impressive, I think. I can't wait for Miyu's solo single next month!
-
The more I listen to Miyu's new single, the more I like it.
Speaking of Miyu, I found this a while ago (Amazing Grace, from her 2004 NY making-of DVD), so I put it on Veoh:

Yeah...when I watched the Secret Base ~Kimi ga Kureta Mono~ PV, I cried and cried like a baby, especially when the song got to the line "Totsuzen no/tenkou de/doushiyou mo naku/tegami kaku yo/denwa mo suru yo/wasurenaide ne/boku no koto o/itsumademo futari no kichi no naka". That line hit hard for doinkies in particular because, like the protagonist of the song's friend, I too had to switch schools in middle school and that was really hard for me. That line brought back memories of my classmates from those times...and I wondered what they were doing now... :cry:
For that matter, I wonder what MARIA's doing now. It's been a while since their album came out and I haven't heard anything about them since...though they're not as good as ZONE I like a couple of their songs, like Tsubomi, and the B-side of Chiisana Uta...
-
So I got my hands on Gateway to Tomorrow.
I have to say, Miyu's voice seems to have developed a lot recently, and I'm liking the way it sounds. :inlove: Very nice guitar work to boot, but that's expected.
-
Hi everybody!
I'm new to these forums. I just happened to find this place while doing a Google search... and it was a wonderful surprise to see that there is this thread about ZONE right on top, because I've been so in love with their music for a little over a year now.
It just goes to show that when something really special comes along, it's remembered... and from reading many of the posts in this thread, remembered well. I don't know how ZONE happened, but it was magic. Just the right mix of skills, enthusiasm, and personalities. Each member was so unique... and even though people seem to have their favorites, they are all loved and appreciated for what they brought to the band.
And yes... I've also been following MARIA... I think that the best songs on their album are the ones that never made it as singles: MABUDACHI, Anata ni, h@cchake, watch me, and Ichiban Hoshi. I wish that each of those songs had their own PV. I've also been following Miyu and Takayo's solo careers.
I hope to be back regularly, and thank you for this great forum! :D
-
The PV for MARIA's 4th single "Yurari sakura sora ..." is on air. It turns out to be a slower song, lead vocals by Maiko (on her own, without Aika) and without a bass in her hands.
(http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/8084/mariatg3.th.jpg) (http://img175.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mariatg3.jpg)
When I listened to the album "You Go! ~We are MARIA~" I was struck by two things. Firstly, that the songwriting was really quite good and second, that MARIA lacked someone with a voice strong enough to do the songs justice. I have exactly the same reaction to this new single. The thought that comes into my heard is I want to hear this sung by someone with a real voice and it then takes less than two seconds for that thought morph into Wouldn't this sound great if Miyu was singing it.
The decision to put Maiko 'up-front' as lead singer makes good marketing sense. Rightly or wrongly, she is still MARIA's main asset and her vocals are gentle, pleasent and thoroughly competent. The PV is largely (but not entirely) monochrome and it's difficult to escape the impression that MARIA's video budgets are shrinking. The PV is nice but a modest increase in funding could probably have secured something better. I'll keep my fingers crossed that this makes a reasonable showing in the chart.

THIS. OH GOD THIS.
Runtime REALLY ought to consider bringing Miyu into MARIA. Esp. since her individual artist sales are doing so poorly... I couldn't help but think Yurari Ouzora could have been a lot better with Miyu doing the vocals.
-
Miyu was on Music Fighter yesteday!
http://mullemeck.serveftp.org/jps_beta/?page=details&id=44908
Haven't been following her solo career, but glad she's doing well.

Pretty nice interview thing :lol:
And where can I get that zone/princessxprincess collab thing? :O

It seems ZONE is no longer in four pieces.

The first picture was posted by Miyu in her blog (http://ameblo.jp/nagasemiyu/) a few weeks ago. The second picture was posted by Takayo in her blog (http://ameblo.jp/takayo-street/) a few days ago.
Now what does it take to put the two halves back together ...
-
Wow excellent. I thought Mizuho going back on a drum set would have been the most unlikely thing. Looks like they've been hanging out together for a while.
-
HOT.
She calls her Honey in code. :lol: They also made T-shirts. Maybe they're starting a band? Possibly called Gossip Girl? :lol:

She is married and has a child. But when Tomoka, Maiko and Miyu were thinking of reforming ZONE they had talked to Mizuho about it. Mizuho said that she can not play the drums anymore. She has her own life now.

If it's alright, I would like to ask what was the equipment used by MARIA, specifically what bass guitar did Aika used for Tsubomi?
Hopefully somebody knows or can link me the information - thank you :D

ZONE to release new single for the first time in 7 years
(http://picroda.jphip.com/japanese/jphip10733.jpg)
Girl band ZONE has announced that they will be releasing their new single, “treasure of the heart ~Kimi to Boku no Kiseki~“, on June 6th!
ZONE reunited in August of last year, which marked the 10th year anniversary since releasing their single, “secret base ~Kimi ga Kureta Mono~“. Since then, the group announced that they would be continuing their activities in 2012. After member TOMOKA (Vo, G) left the entertainment industry last November, ZONE has been active as a 2-member band with MIYU (Vo, G) and MAIKO (Vo, B).
“treasure of the heart ~Kimi to Boku no Kiseki~” will be ZONE’s first single in 7 years. It will be featured in HBC’s (Hokkaido Broadcasting) ‘Keppare! Gohan‘ starting April 25th. The members are also scheduled to make an appearance on the show.
As its coupling track, the single will contain “Yume no Kanata“, which will be the theme song to the golf tour, Sun Chlorella Classic 2012 , from July 26th to the 29th on TBS.
A portion of the proceeds from this single will be donated to disaster-stricken areas to aid in recovery from the Tohoku Earthquake.
In addition to their new single, ZONE has revealed that they will be holding a live tour called ‘Futari ni Narimashita Kedo… NANIKA?’ in June. For this tour, the girls will travel to Hokkaido, Miyagi, Tokyo, Osaka, and Aichi.
