Ohta was a boy when he was taught his first three chords on the ukulele by his mother. He entered an amateur contest at age 9 and won the $10 first prize. Three years later he met Eddie Kamae on the beach, at the time considered the best ukulele player in the world, and became his student.
He enlisted in the US Marine Corps and served ten years. While stationed in Japan as an interpreter, Ohta made his first recordings and played a number of events. He was a guest on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1955.
In 1964 he succeeded in having a hit song with the single Sushi and signed a five-year contract with Decca Records.
Recognized by many as the world's most diversified Ukulele player; recording music that is categorized as Pop Music, Romantic Music, Jazz, Traditional Hawaiian music and with orchestras. He was inducted into the Ukulele Hall of Fame in 2006.
The first collaboration for Herb Ohta and Andre Popp was released in the US by A&M Records. The album titled "Song For Anna", was released in 1973 and sold more than 6 million copies internationally. The ukulele became a blended and solo voice with the orchestrations that appealed to the romantic side of music. The album was followed by another titled "Feelings" in 1975. He has recorded numerous albums from traditional Hawaiian to Classical, Pop and other genres.
In 2001, Herb Ohta joined forces with Lyle Ritz and released an album titled Night of Ukulele Jazz Live at McCabe's. The two were considered top performers, but had managed to miss each other for decades, though both were familiar with the other's works. Both played Martin Ukuleles for the recording, Ohta playing a standard size, and Ritz a tenor, which he switched off with a tenor Ko'olau.
Herb's son, Herb Ohta, Jr., carries on the ukulele tradition.

Their performances will enchant the audiences of the world with unique sounds.
ORIGINAL LOVE（オリジナル・ラブ）は、日本の音楽グループ。1986年に結成され1991年にメジャーデビュー。結成当初は4人、メジャーデビュー時は5人のバンドだったが、1995年以降は田島貴男のソロユニット。代表曲は「接吻」「朝日のあたる道」「プライマル」などがある。
ロック、ソウル、パンク、ブルース、ジャズなどを中心とした幅広いルーツを持つポップスである。
アルバムごとに音楽性が目まぐるしい変化を続けるのが特徴で、表面的な音楽性の振れ幅は非常に大きい。
田島貴男をピチカート・ファイヴに勧誘した小西康陽は、当初フロントマンとしてよりもコンポーザーとして田島を誘ったという。
1990年代、ピチカート・ファイヴ、フリッパーズ・ギターと並び、渋谷系の代表格と言われた。当時の田島自身はその呼称を嫌っており、1994年7月のライブでは「俺は渋谷系じゃない!」と叫んで話題となったが、ムーヴメントそのものが終息して以降はそう呼ばれることを特に気にかけていない。
フリッパーズ・ギターの小山田圭吾と小沢健二はデビュー前からの熱心なファンで、彼らの楽曲への影響力も強かった。後に田島は「自分のデビュー前にフォロワーが出てしまった」と語っている（フリッパーズ・ギターは1989年デビュー）。
カナ表記は当初“オリジナル・ラヴ”だったが、2011年4月1日の日記で田島自身から「20周年となる今年から、新たに再出発する気持ちを込めて、今までオリジナル・ラヴと表記していたのを、“ヴ”を“ブ”に変更し、“オリジナル・ラブ”と表記することにします」と発表された。
The Manhattan Transfer is a jazz vocal group founded in 1969 that has explored a capella, vocalese, swing, standards, Brazilian jazz, rhythm and blues, and pop music.
In 1981, the Manhattan Transfer made music history by becoming the first group to win Grammy awards for both popular and jazz categories in the same year. "The Boy from New York City", a cover of the 1965 success by The Ad Libs, reached the Top 10 on the Billboard 200 and won them the award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, and "Until I Met You (Corner Pocket)" earned them a Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Performance, Duo or Group.
In September 1983, the group released the album Bodies and Souls, with an urban-contemporary style which resulted in two R&B chart singles. The first was the No. 2 hit "Spice of Life", which was co-written by former Heatwave member Rod Temperton who had penned several hits for Michael Jackson. The single also reached No. 40 on the US pop chart and No. 19 in the UK. The other single, the ballad "Mystery" (#80 R&B, No. 102 Pop), was later covered by Anita Baker on her 1986 album Rapture.
In 1985, the group released two albums; the first was Bop Doo-Wopp, which included both live and studio recordings, and the second was Vocalese, which received twelve Grammy nominations—at the time making it second only to Michael Jackson's Thriller as the most nominated single album ever. The group won in two categories: Best Jazz Vocal Performance, Duo or Group, and Best Arrangement for Voices. This was followed by a live recording of many of these songs titled Live. This concert, recorded in Japan, was also released on VHS and DVD, later titled Vocalese Live.
For their next album, Brasil (1987), the group headed south to work with Brazilian songwriters and musicians Ivan Lins, Milton Nascimento, Djavan and Gilberto Gil. Brasil won a Grammy for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.
The group did not release any studio albums again until 1991, when they signed with the Sony Music label and released The Offbeat of Avenues, featuring original material written or co-written by members of the quartet. Their efforts brought them their 10th Grammy award, for the song "Sassy". This was followed by the release of their first holiday album entitled The Christmas Album in 1992.
Switching back to Atlantic Records as their distributor, they released Tonin' (a collection of R&B and popular successes from the 1960s), The Manhattan Transfer Meets Tubby the Tuba (a children's album), and their 1997 album Swing which covered 1930s-era swing music. Their final album for Atlantic was The Spirit of St. Louis in 2000, dedicated to the music of Louis Armstrong. The group was inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 1998.
In 2011, while receiving treatment for Hodgkin's lymphoma, Cheryl Bentyne was replaced on stage for eight months by the soprano Margaret Dorn; Dorn replaced her again December 2013 (followed by Katie Campbell in early 2014) while Bentyne underwent further treatment. Tim Hauser was absent from the stage in 2013 and early 2014 as he recovered from spinal surgery; he was replaced on stage by bass/baritone Trist Curless of the a cappella group m-pact.
In September 2013, one of the original members of the group, Erin Dickins, started a Kickstarter campaign to re-record "Java Jive" with the surviving original members. It featured Tim Hauser's scat musings, as well as a vocal arrangement by Marty Nelson - sung by Dickins, Nelson, Hauser and Gene Pistilli. The project was successfully funded on October 9, 2013 and released on the CD "Java Jive" on Dot Time Records. Original member Pat Rosalia died from cancer in July 2011. Tim Hauser died of cardiac arrest on October 16, 2014.
Following Hauser's death, the group announced Curless would replace him.
吉田兄弟（よしだきょうだい、Yoshida Brothers）は、北海道登別市出身の津軽三味線の兄弟奏者。YB ENTERTAINMENT所属。
国府 弘子（こくぶ ひろこ、1959年8月26日 - ）は、日本のジャズ・ピアニスト、作曲家、編曲家である。ジャズをメインとしているが、ジャンルには捕らわれずクラシック音楽やラテン音楽、ブラジル音楽、ブルース等も積極的に取り入れている。
国立音楽大学ピアノ科在学中にジャズに目覚め卒業後単身渡米、ジャズ界の重鎮バリー・ハリスに師事。帰国後1987年デビュー、2017年現在23枚のアルバムを国内外で発表。ソロピアノでのコンサート、「国府弘子スペシャルトリオ」、またオーケストラとの競演など幅広い活動を展開する。
幅広い表現力を持ったインプロヴァイザーとして、音楽シーンをリードしてきたジャズ・ピアニストであり、また温かく心に響くメロディーを創造する作曲家としても評価が高い。
現在、川崎市文化大使、埼玉入間市文化創造施設のアドバイザー、平成音楽大学、尚美学園大学客員教授。
2015年音色の贅を極めたピアノソロアルバム「ピアノ一丁！」(ビクター)に続き、2016年夏、岩崎宏美の歌唱にピアノだけで寄り添ったデュオ・アルバム「ピアノ・ソングス」を発表。
レ・フレール（Les Frères）は、日本の兄弟ピアノデュオ。「レ・フレール」はフランス語で「兄弟」という意味。略称は「LF」「レフ」など。
2002年9月3日、神奈川県横須賀市出身の兄・斎藤守也と弟・斎藤圭土の兄弟が結成。守也が得意とするバラードと圭土が得意とするブギに「レ・フレール」テイストを加えることで独自のスタイルを生み出した。また、1台のピアノを2人で自在に操る「キャトルマンスタイル（quatre mains:仏 意味は「4本の手」。音楽用語では「4手連弾」を指す）」という独特な奏法はこれまでのピアノ観を覆した（鍵盤に対してさまざまな形で手を交差させる奏法などがある）。総合格闘家 中尾受太郎は従兄弟。
ジャズ（英: jazz ）は、19世紀末から20世紀初頭にかけてアメリカ南部の都市を中心に派生した音楽形式。西洋楽器を用いた高度な西洋音楽の技術と理論、およびアフリカ系アメリカ人の独特のリズム感覚と音楽形式とが融合して生まれた。演奏の中にブルー・ノート、シンコペーション、スウィング、コール・アンド・レスポンス（掛け合い演奏）、インプロヴィゼーション、ポリリズム（複合リズム）などの要素を組み込んでいることが、大きな特徴とされている。
その表現形式は自由なものであり、初期からポール・ホワイトマンらの白人ミュージシャンが深くかかわり、演奏技法なども急速に発展した。20世紀後半には世界の多くの国々で、ジャズが演奏されるようになった。
ジャズは西洋音楽とアフリカ音楽の組み合わせにより発展した音楽である。スピリチュアル、ブルース、ラグタイムの要素を含み、根底的には西アフリカ、西サヘル（サハラ砂漠南縁に東西に延びる帯状の地域）、ニューイングランドの宗教的な賛美歌やヨーロッパの軍隊音楽にある。アフリカ音楽を起源とするものについては、アフリカからアメリカ南部に連れてこられたアフリカからの移民（多くは奴隷として扱われた）とその子孫の民族音楽としてもたらされたとされており、都市部に移住した黒人ミュージシャンによってジャズとしての進化を遂げたといわれている。
ニューオーリンズが発祥の地とされており、現在でもその語源ははっきりしない。20世紀に入ると、コルネット奏者のバディ・ボールデンがニューオーリンズで人気を博し、今日では「初代ジャズ王」と呼ばれているが、バディは1907年に活動停止し、本人による録音は残されていない。
Alvvays was formed in Toronto. Molly Rankin, the group's singer-songwriter, is the daughter of John Morris Rankin, a fiddler with the Celtic folk family collective the Rankin Family, who enjoyed international success in the 1990s. Rankin grew up writing music with her neighbour, keyboardist Kerri MacLellan. She later met guitarist and partner Alec O'Hanley at a concert in her teen years. With the help of O'Hanley, Rankin quietly released a solo extended play titled She in 2010. Alvvays was formed the following year, with Rankin assembling MacLellan, O'Hanley, drummer Phil MacIsaac and bassist Brian Murphy to join the group. As the band grew up on neighbouring islands—Rankin and MacLellan on Cape Breton and O'Hanley, MacIsaac, and Murphy hailing from Prince Edward Island—Rankin was led to dub the band "merging of obscure islands in the east coast." She picked the name Alvvays because she liked that it had a "shred of sentiment and nostalgia." The spelling of the band name was due to the fact that there was already a band named Always signed to Sony.
They often made the long drives from Cape Breton and Prince Edward Island to Toronto, where they all eventually moved and secured jobs that allowed them to tour occasionally. The group toured extensively as supporting acts for bands such as Peter Bjorn and John and The Decemberists. Their debut album was recorded in Calgary with Chad VanGaalen in March 2013; Graham Walsh helped track the album while John Agnello helped mix it. After the album was complete, the group made cassette copies for festival bookers and fans at concerts to pass around. The group were signed to Polyvinyl Records on the strength of their SXSW performances and online fervor over the demo of their single "Adult Diversion". Alvvays was released by Royal Mountain Records (Canada), Polyvinyl Records (US), and Transgressive Records (Europe) in July 2014. Simon Vozick-Levinson, writing in Rolling Stone, called the eponymous album an "indie-pop wonder". Alvvays went to #1 on US college charts on August 5, 2014. "Archie, Marry Me" became a minor hit. The single for "Archie, Marry Me" featured the b-side "Underneath Us" which was recorded sometime after the eponymous album.
They will collaborate to present Ken Boothe with Cool Wise Man JAPAN Tour.

Cool Wise Man was formed in 1993.
Everyone can not live without moving the body when seeing Cool Wise Man's performances with various roots music backbone, including Jamaican music, and listening to the excitement of "This is music"
They also co-starr with legendary musicians of Jamaican music.
Cool Wise Man is considered to be one of the biggest instruments and ska bands in Japan with numerous appearances in Australia's biggest rock festival "BIG DAY OUT" and other international festivals.
Ken Boothe OD (born 22 March 1948) is a Jamaican vocalist known for his distinctive vibrato and timbre. Boothe achieved an international reputation as one of Jamaica's finest vocalists through a series of crossover hits that appealed to both reggae fans and mainstream audiences.
Boothe's first solo tracks were recorded in 1966 after Clement "Coxsone" Dodd had signed him to his Studio One Label. He also recorded material for Phil Pratt and Sonia Pottinger the same year. The following year, Boothe and Alton Ellis had a successful UK tour with the Studio One session group, the Soul Vendors. Boothe was promoted as "Mr. Rock Steady" by Dodd during this period.
Under a new direction from record producer Lloyd Charmers, Boothe released "Everything I Own" on Trojan Records, which reached Number One in the UK Singles Chart in 1974.
Boothe had one more hit in the UK Singles Chart during the 1970s, "Crying Over You", which made No. 11, with Trojan Records' collapse and a split with Charmers losing much of the momentum built up by his two hits.Boothe recorded a reggae version of the standard "When I Fall In Love" which was released in 1974 on the Studio One label.
In 1978, along with Dillinger, Leroy Smart, and Delroy Wilson, Boothe was referenced by lyricist Joe Strummer in the Clash's song, "(White Man) In Hammersmith Palais". Boothe reunited with Charmers in the late 1970s when a revived Trojan Records

ShortStraw is an indie rock band from Johannesburg, South Africa. ShortStraw is currently signed to their independently formed publishing label Boosh Records in South Africa, with digital distribution by Sony Music.
The band was formed in 2007 as a two-piece consisting of Oliver Nathan (drums and backing vocals) and Alastair Thomas (lead vocals and guitar). Jason Hartford (guitar and keyboard) joined the band in 2008 and Phil Brierley (bass) later joined the band in 2009.
Shortstraw have earned themselves a place as currently being one of the biggest bands in South Africa, with some of the most loyal fans a band could ask for. After 2014 took the band outside South Africa, Shortstraw continue to bring their uniquely South African “Indie-Bele” sound to the rest of the world.
Shortstraw won BEST INDIE at the 2013 MK Awards for the music video for One Long Day, and at the 2014 MK Awards picked up BEST ALBUM for Good Morning, Sunshine and BEST VIDEO for Waterworks. Shortstraw was nominated for BEST ALTERNATIVE at the 2014 MTV Africa Music Awards. In 2015, the band’s latest album Youthless debuted at #1 on the South African iTunes Chart.

Brandon Paak Anderson (born February 8, 1986), better known by his stage name Anderson Paak (stylized as Anderson .Paak), is an American rapper, songwriter, drummer, singer and record producer from Oxnard, California. He released his debut album, O.B.E. Vol. 1 in 2012, under the pseudonym Breezy Lovejoy. He went on to release Venice in 2014, under his current moniker. Paak followed with Malibu, in 2016, which received a nomination for Best Urban Contemporary Album at the Grammy Awards. Apart from his solo career, Paak is also one-half of NxWorries, alongside record producer Knxwledge. He is accompanied by the band The Free Nationals, who play a variety of instruments such as electric guitar, bass, piano, keyboards, and drums, and also serve as backing vocalists.
Paak was born in Oxnard, California in 1986. He is half-African American / Korean. At the age of seven, Paak witnessed his estranged father attack his mother: "My little sister and I went out front, and my pops was on top of my mom. There was blood in the street. He was arrested, and that was the last time I saw him. I think he did 14 years."
Paak began producing music from his bedroom as a teenager, while attending Foothill Technology High School. His first experiences performing were as a drummer at his family's church where he met and married his first wife. After a few years, they divorced, and when Paak was teaching at a music school, he met his second wife, a music student from South Korea. In 2011, prior to being a successful working musician, Paak was working at a marijuana farm in Santa Barbara. He was let go without warning, becoming homeless together with his wife and infant son.
In 2011, Paak had started earning acceptance in the Los Angeles music world as he worked on his debut album. Shafiq Husayn of Sa-Ra helped Paak recover financially from losing his job in Santa Barbara by employing him as an assistant, videographer, editor, writer and producer. He completed O.B.E. Vol.1 and released the album in mid-2012. He became the drummer for American Idol contestant Haley Reinhart.
On November 27, 2013, Paak produced and recorded Cover Art, an all-covers EP. Paak was inspired by the white artists of the 1950s who achieved commercial success by remaking songs written by black blues and R&B singers, while hardly ever compensating the original artists. Cover Art reversed the process and transformed folk and rock classics from white musicians into a mold of soul, jazz, hip hop, and R&B. The album was released by the independent Hellfyre Club and OBE labels. Paak was the lead producer for Watsky's 2014 album All You Can Do and is featured on three of its tracks.
On October 28, 2014, Paak released Venice, his debut album as Anderson .Paak, on OBE and Steel Wool. Paak performed on six songs on Dr. Dre's 2015 album Compton and two on The Game's The Documentary 2. In October 2015, he announced that he had recorded material with ScHoolboy Q and 9th Wonder. Paak released his second album, Malibu, on January 15, 2016, to critical acclaim.
In January 2016, he indicated that he had been recording with Flying Lotus. On January 30, 2016, Paak spoke with Scott Simon of NPR's Weekend Edition Saturday in an interview entitled: "Anderson .Paak: 'The Dot Stands For Detail' " about his tumultuous background as a child of mixed-race parents, the significance of "." (dot) Paak, his apprenticeship with Dr. Dre and how all of these influences shaped his music. On January 30, Paak announced via Twitter he has signed to Dr. Dre's Aftermath Entertainment.
In 2016, Paak was named one of the XXL Freshman, along with Lil Dicky, Desiigner, Dave East, Denzel Curry, Lil Yachty, G Herbo, Lil Uzi Vert, 21 Savage, & Kodak Black. He said he always sends his ideas to Dr. Dre and the two work very fast.
In 2018, Paak's new single 'Til It's Over featured in a new TV commercial released by Apple Inc. The advertisement was directed by Spike Jonze, featuring FKA Twigs in the video, promoting the Apple HomePod smart speaker.
Even though the raw and raunchy earlier material released shortly after their formation 22 years ago sounds worlds away from the more recent work, since early on Kobe, Japan’s SWARRRM has never been afraid to drag Grindcore through all sorts of weird and wonderful terrain.
But unlike other wildly eclectic bands like Tokyo’s Paintbox who make use of arrangements and instrumentation (in Paintbox’s case, Van Halen solos and mariachi horns on 2009’s ‘Trip, Trance & Travelling’), SWARRRM has evolved their genre with boundless imagination and simply having the chops to pull off all sorts of fantastical ideas.
OVUM（オーヴァム）は日本の4人組インストゥルメンタル・ロックバンドである。国内だけでなく、海外でも精力的に活動している。
GUEVNNA is a Sludge / Doom Rock band from Tokyo, Japan formed in 2011 including Go Shimada, Komi, Raizou, Ryo Yamada, Temi.
They belongs to W.I.F.A.G.E.N.A. records and Long Legs Long Arms records. After releasing a split with Aguirre in France and Black Temple Below in Italy, GO (Gt), Temi (Dr) joined after membership change and announced "Conspiracies" (EP) in 2015. Up to now, their sounds have been making a big change. While leaving a sludge / dome-like element so far, they gave a reverberation by presenting a sound that is upper, danceable and heavy.
Their musical influence has gradually started spreading not only to domestic but also active tours to overseas, events and flyer creation, which are not caught by existing customs, and based on its alternative spirit. There is a part of their characteristic with the spirituality of the band "Let's pioneer new areas", and that time they partnered as a label to advance to new level.
Their sound, which is also called "Urban Stoner" in part, may certainly be the form of a new Stoner Rock which has undergone refined urban elegance.
Since its inception in 2003, Black Ganion, the ‘super metamorphosis grinder’, has turned the voice of the voiceless into ear-shattering noise and screams, hurling them to the world. The knee-deep sludge rends itself into furious grindcore, and the chilly dub cuttings morph into doom riffs and chaotic murkiness. Their collaboration with GOTH-TRAD on Method is regarded as one of the first ever successful chimaera of extreme music and dubstep.
Still, their music is not just a showcase of musical genres. Their inconsistency in musical styles shows the true musical identity of the band. The same can be said for the listeners – they must abandon the stylized routine moshings, and free their instincts. Black Ganion on stage is an epitome of modern society, the feast of freedom and aggression.
Power Trip is an American thrash metal band formed in Dallas, Texas in 2008. Their sound has been described by critics as a cross between thrash metal and hardcore punk, as well as simply crossover thrash. Power Trip's current lineup consists of Riley Gale (vocals), Chris Ulsh (drums), Chris Whetzel (bass), Blake “Rossover” Ibanez (guitar), and Nick Stewart (guitar).
In 2013, the band signed with the Southern Lord Records label and released their first studio album, Manifest Decimation. Their second album, Nightmare Logic, was released in 2017 to critical acclaim. In 2018, the album Opening Fire: 2008-2014 was released as a way to compile their extra tracks.
Clown is a Japanese four-member hardcore punk rock band. Since its inception, they has released many songs and album such as: livestock world (2007), Human in confusion (2013), Unfair equality (2013), etc,.

The conception of Sinsaenum can be traced as far back as 1998, when French guitarist Frédéric Leclercq (best known as the bassist of English power metal band DragonForce) began writing a number of death metal songs. Jordison proposed the band name Sinsaenum, which is a modified portmanteau of the words "sin" and "insane". The trio later added Attila Csihar of Norwegian black metal band Mayhem and Sean Zatorsky of American death metal group Dååth as dual lead vocalists, in addition to Seth guitarist Heimoth on the bass to complete the lineup. The formation of the band was officially announced on May 20, 2016.
In early 2017 the band entered the studio again to begin the process of writing and recording what they dubbed as "Sinsaenum II". It was later announced in summer that year that the band would release a new EP. The EP, entitled Ashes, was scheduled for release on November 10, featuring new music, previously Japan exclusive bonus tracks, and an alternate mix of the track "Dead Souls" from Echoes of the Tortured, remixed by Frédéric Duquesne of French industrial metal group Mass Hysteria. The title track was released with a music video on 29 September 2017. On October 27, they released the Duquesne mix of "Dead Souls" with a lyric video.
SIGH is a Japanese extreme metal band from Tokyo, formed in 1989. They are credited as being one of the first Japanese black metal bands, producing music in the early 1990s when the majority of black metal came from Scandinavia. They gradually shifted from a traditional extreme metal sound to a more experimental, avant-garde style employing symphonic elements.
Sigh was founded in 1989 in Tokyo, Japan. The band was signed by Euronymous' (of Mayhem fame) label Deathlike Silence Records and released their first full-length album Scorn Defeat on DSP in 1993, shortly after Euronymous' death. The label ceased to exist shortly after his death and Sigh changed to Cacophonous Records.
The band is featured in the 2008 documentary Global Metal. Their song "Inked in Blood" from Hangman's Hymn was named number 31 on Loudwire's list of the Top 21st Century Metal Songs

Perry took up the guitar at the age of 10, and even though he is left-handed learned to play with his right.[6] He said in 2014 that a substantial early influence on his music was The Beatles: "The night The Beatles first played The Ed Sullivan Show, boy, that was something. Seeing them on TV was akin to a national holiday. Talk about an event. I never saw guys looking so cool. I had already heard some of their songs on the radio, but I wasn't prepared by how powerful and totally mesmerizing they were to watch. It changed me completely. I knew something was different in the world that night."
He was ranked 84th in Rolling Stone's list of The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. In 2001, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as part of Aerosmith, and in 2013, Perry and his songwriting partner Steven Tyler were recipients of the ASCAP Founders Award and were also inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. In October 2014, Simon & Schuster released Rocks: My Life In and Out of Aerosmith, written by Perry with David Ritz.
The self-dubbed "fabric four" primarily recorded in a film soundtrack style, and many of their tracks were instrumentals. On the release of their first album Dad Man Cat, Paul Moody wrote in the New Musical Express: "Whereas the rest of the Acid Jazz roster fidget around in a world of skinny ribbed roll-necks comparing sideburn growth, Corduroy manage to swagger through the same po-faced domain with a couldn't-care-less braggadocio... Corduroy have got their collective tongue stuck firmly in someone else's cheek here and it feels staggeringly good."
