Mizura mentioned Little Glee Monster in the 13th Gen audition thread, and after checking them out, I'm kind of obsessed. They can all legitimately sing well. Their first major label album just came out, and it's pretty good, if a bit spotty. It includes a 2nd CD with 5 cover songs, including a killer version of The Gospellers' "Towa ni"

 

Their Jpop Wikia page.

 

Here's a video I made where I dropped their studio recording of Misia's "Hatenaku Tsuzuku Story" over live video of the same, then messed with filters to make it look old:

My favorite new track off their new album Colorful Monster, "Chiisana Koi Ga, Owatta":

And finally, their debut single "Houkago High Five":

Honestly, their music style doesn't appeal to me at all but I do appreciate that someone is out there trying to do an idol group that doesn't sound like a bunch of shrieking cats LOL.

I also looked them up and, I love them. I'm currently adding most of their stuff to my car playlist.

Yeah, I hope that second song I posted is the direction they continue to follow. Some of their stuff is downright embarrassing -- like their covers of "What Time Is It" and "Lady Marmalade" (I wonder if the genius who made a group of 13 - 15 year old girls sing this knows that the song is about a prostitute picking up and fucking a John?) -- and some is kind of boring. But when they're good, they're really damned good.

I'm actually the person who made the Jpop wikia page so I'm glad to see that it's getting some attention. (This also means I'll have to update it tomorrow).

I'm not a huge fan of their cover songs, but they did a good job with Let it go and I like their main a-sides of singles. They have more of a budget for their music videos than H!P does. I just wish their YouTube channel was still viewable in America but they are apart of Sony record label.

LGM is releasing a new single soon. The MV got uploaded onto the channel a few days ago, but someone put a link to a mirror version on another site. https://streamable.com/yh2n

 

Not the biggest fan of it, but I like it more than their last single.

Pretty much how I feel about it, too. I don't know, it might grow on me.

LGM is releasing another single (or they've already released it). Link is uploaded on a mirror site: https://streamable.com/xe4b

 

I like it more than their last few singles, but it's still not my favorite. But this might be a sign of good things to come.

I really wish they'd do more modern sounding stuff, because this could have been released back in 2000 when I started listening to Jpop. "Chiisana Koi Ga, Owatta" was so good, and I had hoped it would be a direction they would follow, but it was obviously an anomaly. These girls are wasted on songs like this.

They released 2 new MVs recently. One in December that I only saw now since I rarely check their H!O thread, and another today. I like the song of the first one. It sounds a bit more modern. The second song Gift is good too but it does sound more like one of their standard song styles. The MV is really nice though.

Did they ever do a video for Dakara, Hitori Jaa Nai? All I've seen are live performances.
