Zekkyou Suru 60do
絶叫する60度

(Screaming Sixties)

(http://picroda.jphip.com/misc/jphip09120.jpg)


So, Zekkyou Suru 60do (or, in their English name form, Screaming Sixties) are a two-piece rock idol unit from Nagoya. Although they may be based in Nagoya, they spend their whole time driving between Nagoya, Tokyo, and Osaka, and occasionally to other places in Japan, performing live shows 20+ times a month. As far as I can tell, they debuted on 1st August 2014. They are affiliated with the punk group 6% is Mine who do covers of Studio Ghibli and other songs. So Zekkyou do some songs from 6% is Mine, eg/ their opening theme is from Nausicaa, and they do a version of Ponyo. They also have a bunch of original songs. They sometimes do band lives with 6% is Mine, and their recent CDs have been marketed as "Zekkyou Suru 60-do with 6% is Mine".

Kai (left) lived in LA for a while, so speaks great English, also she plays the guitar, and does this live sometimes. I think she sometimes does live collaborative performances with Saki from 2&. Montero (right) is actually Filipino, her thing used to be that she was a bit of a sadist who would kick you in the head and stand on you, and all that kindof good stuff, at buppan. But they seem to have moved away from that now. I mean, they still will if you ask, but it seems less common than before. And yes, during lives both of them always wear the eye masks... and at buppan they pretty much always wear the normal style face masks, covering mouth/nose. So it's rare you'll see them without any kind of mask at all.

They've released 3 singles to date:

Utsusemi no Hana / Dai Sanji Botchi Sensou
2015/08/01
of which the second song has a music video:

Montero's seitansai will be on July 3rd, in some town near where she was born.

I can't be there, but her birthday t-shirt and towel this year are so fucking badass

Hopefully will be able to get ahold of these, I always wanted last year's "Montero is Invincible" shirt, and, well, a generic Zekkyou shirt, also.

They do a really good "Totoro" also!

They are both left-handed.

Sometimes they do shows super early in the morning.

Yeah, love their Totoro! And those 6am Monday morning shows are such a crazy idea  XD



Anyway, it's Montero's birthday!

(http://picroda.jphip.com/misc/jphip09162.jpg)

It was the first of her four seitansais today. She did a collab with Saki from 2&

(http://picroda.jphip.com/japanese/t/jphip46014.jpg) (http://picroda.jphip.com/japanese/jphip46014.jpg)

She was in a town near where she was born today, then tomorrow is Tokyo, then I guess Nagoya and Osaka birthday shows. Quite a lot!

^ I like how the camera itself was head-banging at times  :rofl:

Also, this proves how good the girls are as performers - overall, this is probably the best video I've seen of theirs that really shows off their abilities  :twothumbs

Now this is one of the reasons why I think Zekkyou are one of the best idol groups out there. To celebrate their 2nd anniversary, they didn't perform some big show in some big hall in Tokyo, no, with one day's warning they said they'll do a free live on a beach. In Akita, which is north-west Japan, about as far away from Tokyo etc you can be without going to Hokkaido. They just tweet a couple of google maps images of the location... then they play, for 10 people, on the beach, half in the sea. Fucking awesome:

Today, Zekkyou performed in some traditional Japanese theatre place:

So, it seems Montero is part of new unit τ -TAU-

(http://i.imgur.com/B4bXRKY.jpg)

Which also has Minori from Manami no Risa and Rumi from Caramel in it.

They have a music video for a song called 「Dead or Drive」 which is available to watch in this twitter video: https://twitter.com/TAU0907/status/781848166396145665

No other info on them, but I know they have a show on the 6th Nov, at the festival Zekkyou is curating: http://www.bakuonsai.com/



Montero will also be DJ-ing at some event on the 10/22

https://twitter.com/18Montero18/status/781439484080422912

Strange to see Montero branching out into this other group (think it's a limited time special unit group) and DJing... I can't imagine her DJing at all  :lol:

Having been to Rockaholic a few times, it's a tiny cramped bar where they play rock and metal so I don't think it'll be that DJ-like. I have pretty low expectations of people who aren't originally DJs appearing since it seems everyone does it now. I would generally expect Montero to do a lot of yelling though.


Title: Re: (Group) Zekkyou Suru 60do (Screaming Sixties)
Post by: Jul3 on October 05, 2016, 01:14:00 AM
^ Oh cool. Montero yelling a lot would be good - her screaming "ohayou gozaimasu" is one of my favourite things in all of idols, LOL.



It seems that Tau group will go on a 7-date 3-man tour this month: https://twitter.com/TAU0907/status/783291359838871555
Where each of the 3 groups the members come from do 50mins each and Tau do 20mins.



I don't think it was posted, but Zekkyou are doing a 3-date one-man live tour: https://twitter.com/zekkyo60/status/768432683890282497
10/29, 12/6, 1/3.
But what is interesting is they are performing with the Nejishiki band. I learnt recently from Krv, that Nejishiki is a vocaloid producer, and a lot of the Zekkyou songs he wrote and were originally vocaloid songs. I might link the youtube versions of these in a later post.

And here's a couple of (old) video clips from this "Future Standard" show that Zekkyou appeared on

I remember watching these a while ago, amusing how Kai drives Montero and Hamada overnight between cities (they pretty much are constantly travelling between Nagoya/Osaka/Tokyo)

Also, here's some Zekkyou songs with only them singing and Kai on acoustic guitar, no backing music:

The good folks at JapanCorner filmed some Zekkyou shows and have put some clips online!

"Dai sanji botchi sensou" feat Daisuke from Rearend17 from ACB HALL Shinjuku 2016/07/29

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIwF1zfUkn8

And what he calls an "ultimate sampler"... err, it's just one song, I don't know the name, but it's one of my favourites from lives, so much fun!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hb4xQWmogP4

(love the bit at 1:19 where Montero kicks that bloke back into the crowd)

Missed out on the Tau release live at Deseo last night but, in true 60's fashion, they had an all night event in Otsuka (near Ikebukuro) that finished up with a live that began at 11:30am (Caramel, manaminorisa, 60's, Tau). Missed out on most of Caramel but manaminorisa and 60's were awesome! I think most of the people were there from when it started at 11:30pm. Entry was "free" with a drink charge (500 yen) and 1 CD (1,000 - 1,500 yen) but they also had a rule where every CD bought would equal 1 minute of the event so if they didn't sell enough, the event would end. Since it started at 11:30pm and ended at 2:00pm, that's 900 CDs they sold? I only got 1 but might get the manaminorisa version later?

Not a fan of how Montero looks in that group shot since she looked a lot less harsh today.

Was probably not a good idea to drink gin and tonics on an empty stomach in the middle of the day but, at least it's a holiday?

Seems like the collaboration CD between Zekkyou and I Love You Orchestra comes out on 2015/07/05 and contains 6 songs. I think Kai and Montero each wrote lyrics for one of them.

Zekkyou are releasing a 6-song mini album with The Heana Cat on the 3rd April.

They just put out an MV for the lead track off it:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVICy6AtGgc

They are also going on a 47 prefecture tour with them. It's kinda interesting cuz The Heana Cat don't have a drummer so they have different guest drummers on the tour, also.

They released their first full album yesterday.

Preview of all 18 tracks here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uc2eHhxv78A

Tracklist:

1. 桜は二度散る、そして二度咲く。
2. ラブレター
3. またね
4. インディペンデンス・デイ
5. 空蝉の花
6. タイトロープドリーマー
7. 逆襲という名の旋律
8. 才の雨に撃たれて
9. 絶対零度ファンク
10. 8時30分
11. 絶叫ジャッジメント
12. 大惨事ぼっち戦争
13. small money,sweet honey
14. T字路
15. 三年days
16. 道化師のパズル
17. ONLY PLACE WE CAN CRY
18. 無限の画用紙

I think only 2 new songs, but most haven't been released before. The ones which have been previously released were re-recorded by their old band. None of the original sound source is included with this, it's all new recordings. It's basically all their songs apart from the ones from their collab albums with The Heana Cat and I Love You Orchestra. And also the Tau songs and Ghibli covers.
