First up is a band from Los Angeles! Their name is “Kill My Coquette.” Kill My Coquette is the brainchild of Natalie Denise Sperl who made her way to Hollywood, clawing her way to starring roles in cult horror flicks, studio films, and hit TV shows. This is her band!
At #1 this week is “Palaye Royale.” Palaye Royale is a fashion-art rock band from Las Vegas consisting of members Sebastian Danzig, Remington Leith, & Emerson Barrett.
And this week’s extra! It’s a girl’s rockabilly band from Tokyo called, “The Villainz.” Stand-up bass and a hot look! Here they are covering the Shocking Blue song, “Venus.”
Well, that’s it for this week. Hope you have a great weekend! See you next time!

Now, onto the countdown… At #3 is a band that gets lots of airplay on my FM radio show, “What the Funday” on InterFM every Sunday morning from 8 am ~ 11am. Their name is Kids On A Crime Spree and they are a rock trio from Oakland, California.
At #1 this week is Drenge. Drenge are an English two-piece alternative rock band, based in Castleton, Derbyshire, based in Sheffield. The band is made up of Eoin Loveless, on guitar and vocals, and his younger brother Rory, on drums. They take their name from the Danish word for “boys”, although it is pronounced differently. Oh, and they are appearing at Fuji Rock this year!
And last but not least are one of Tokyo’s favorite bands, the Watanabe’s. I was thinking about putting a Belle & Sebastian song in here, but then I changed my mind. Everyone already knows Belle & Sebastian and if you like them, you’ll definitely like the Watanabe’s. This video also has some great shots around Tokyo. Cool!

Welcome back and time once again for this week’s Top 3 video countdown. The best and most bizarre new Top 3 Indies artist’s videos and bizarre and cool stuff I could find (and trust me, I spend a lot of time looking for this stuff!)
First up today is a band named Milk Spot. The only thing I can tell you about these folks is they are from Fort Lauderdale, Florida; there are 4 of them and they have a Facebook page… Oh, and they are friends with Killmama who have graced our Top 3 chart before!
Hey, I just realized something… Our #2 band comes from Florida too. Is there something going on in Florida right now? Wow! Anyway, their description says, “3 piece Riot Girl / Alternative band from Miami.” They have a Facebook page too.
This week’s #1 is a band that I have been playing on my radio show “What the Funday” on InterFM (Gee, we have a Facebook page too!) The band’s name is “Beautiful Bodies” and I have been airing them for well over a year… Maybe two? I can’t remember. They are a trio from Kansas City, Missouri. Anyway, they just signed to Epitaph Records, so all I have to say is, Bravo!” (Of course, they have a FB page too!)
That’s it for today! See ya next time! ARTISTS! SEND ME YOUR NEW VIDEOS! ESPECIALLY YOU ARTISTS IN JAPAN! I WANT TO HELP PROMOTE YOU! THE WORLD WANTS TO SEE YOU!

Time once again for this week’s Top 3 New Artist Videos for the week of June 19, 2015. Of course, I play these artists and these songs on my regular weekly FM radio show, “What the Funday” on InterFM that is broadcast in Tokyo and Nagoya (and all over Japan on the Radiko.jp network. You can listen to that (if you are in Japan) here: http://radiko.jp/).
First up from Los Angeles is a band named, “F U MaryLou.” Their Bandcamp page says: “We’re crude. We swear. We’re honest and having a great time. What are you doing?” And, the band members are (as stated on their page): Egg Brink! – Morgan Ober, Balls – Kristy McInnis, Colonel Lingus – Cameron Meadows
#3) F U MaryLou – Bounce https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2g6uiDczse0&feature=youtu.be
Next up is a new band named Secret Club. Audio Fuzz says, “….they are releasing their new CD, and their video was directed by Ryan Baxley (Fidlar, Twin Peaks). This band could kick the Strokes’ ass, or send the Hives back to Sweden. They remind me of the Dandy Warhols or (for those of you old like me), the Sonics or the Standells. Remember, garage rock is what we need to keep us wild, and Secret Club is one of those bands. Thanks be to the ghost of the Ramones.”
At #1 this week is the comeback of Veruca Salt. Veruca Salt were a big band in the nineties. I think, after hearing this track, you will be glad they are back.
And for today’s Freebie is an artist that is currently touring Japan: The Dolomites! Here’s their webpage. Go to the page to get a FREE song download! They are performing in Tokyo tonight and for the next week. Here’s the live schedule.

One day late and far more than several hundred dollars short, it’s time for this week’s Top 3 Videos. The Top 3 Indies Artist’s videos for the week of June 16, 2015.
And once again, it’s Ladies Nite! The ladies will do the rockin’. Everyone gets in free!
First up are the two sisters who we introduced to you several weeks ago. As the story goes, when the older sister was 9, she pushed a drum kit into her then 6-year-old sister’s bedroom and proclaimed, “We’re starting a punk band.” Ten years later, today, they are known as Dog Party. They’ve been getting heavy airplay on my radio show: What the Funday on InterFM. (Please come “Like” or FB page! Please!)
And at this week’s #1 is a band that needs no introduction to our countdown. They just finished a tour of the UK and the USA and we’re featured on our Ninja Slayer from Animation set program, “the TV Show” (ザ・TVショウ) that I create, write and produce along with my crazy friends Ken Nishikawa and Motoyoshi Tai for Niconico Douga.
Taffy are happening! Need more proof? This is from their new CD “Darkle” and this track is remixed by Brian Jonestown Massacre! Way cool!
Today’s freebie is, yes, yet again another band that’s been getting regular spins on What the Funday. It’s History of Apple Pie! The History of Apple Pie are an English rock band from London. They released their debut album Out of View on 28 January 2013, which went in at number 8 in the UK Indie Breakers Chart, and number 2 in the UK Record Store Chart.
Hope you enjoyed today’s videos! See you next time!

Shit! It’s a Monday! I hate Mondays! The only good thing about Mondays is the Top 3 Video Countdown. Let’s get rockin’!
Oh my god! The first band up today is the New Piccadillys. This band is hot! The Piccadillys are “Shiny suits, twanging guitars, pounding drums & tight harmonies together with 60s sounds” I highly recommend checking out their Facebook page where you can find gems like this: “He is also remembered by many as Johnny MacRotten of the dangerously authentic ‘Scottish Sex Pistols’ and as front man for the more family friendly skiffle trio ‘Wray Gunn & The Rockets’.” You can’t make this shit up. Here they are with a cover of a classic Ramones tune.
Next up are the China Rats. China Rats are a four-piece indie rock band from Leeds, England, that the U.K. press has been hailing as the next Arctic Monkeys.
Next up, at #1 is a band that is coming to the big Japanese Rock Festival; Summer Fuji, or is it Fuji Sonic? I forget. Why? Because all summer festivals have crap sound and I don’t go to them. Nevertheless, I was the first one to play our #1 act in Japan (aren’t I always the first?) so this band is cool, even though the summer festivals all suck (I hate standing in line to take a pee too!)
At #1 is Drenge. Drenge are an English two-piece alternative rock band, based in Castleton, Derbyshire, England. The band is made up of Eoin Loveless, on guitar and vocals, and his younger brother Rory, on drums.
Today’s Freebie! オマケ!It’s Girlpool! Wikipedia says, “Girlpool is a punk rock band from Los Angeles, California. Its members are Cleo Tucker (guitar, vocals) and Harmony Tividad (bass, vocals), who are 18 and 19 years old, respectively. The band does not have a drummer.”
Well, that’s it for this week! See you next time. Keep rocking and have a great week!

Top 3 Videos for the week of June 2, 2015 time. Time to check out the coolest of the cool new Indies artists videos!

Let’s make this into the coolest weekly Indies music chart on the entire internet!
And without further ado…. Today’s is the Girl’s Nite Out! All bands with female vocals! And why not? I love bands that have the ladies up front.
First, up we have two sisters from Sacramento California named Dog Party. It seems that when older sister Gwendolyn Giles was 9, she pushed a drum kit into her then 6-year-old sister Lucy’s room and said, “We’re starting a punk band.” And that’s how they got started. Hilarious and monstrously epic!
At this week’s #1 a group from London called, Kid Wave. The Guardian says: “Lea Emmery (lead singer) is picture-perfect for the role of sultry indie icon. Her long hair and fringe are offset by her rocker attire….It’s like Nico fronting the Field Mice, until drummer Serra Petale stirs up a crashing rhythm that sends guitarist Mattias Bhatt and bassist Harry Deacon into overdrive, and everything turns a bit Breeders.”
Finally, today’s Freebie. And it’s a band that just completed a successful tour of the UK and the USA so congrats goes out to Taffy! Taffy are happening…. And guess what? I was the first one to air Taffy in Japan and I put them on a former countdown, so they are like my children. I LOVE THEM! …. Oh, and get this, they have over 78,000 “Likes” on Facebook! Wow! Go “Like” them, please! (https://www.facebook.com/taffy8?fref=ts)
オマケ:Taffy – So Long (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWm2HbXDBDc)
Well, that’s it for this week! See you next time. Keep rocking and have a great weekend!

Hey! It’s a Friday in Japan and that means it’s time for the weekend! Finally! And the weekend means it’s also time for the second edition of Top 3 Videos – Weekend Edition for May 29, 2015. Can you believe that it’s almost June? The year is almost half over!
I’d like to say thanks to all the bands and labels that have started reaching out to us. With your help, we are able to make this countdown twice a week so keep the videos coming!
First off today is a band I just discovered about 30 minutes ago. If you loved the seventies punk band, X-Ray Specs, then you are going to love this band! They are called the Downtown Boys. Punk News Org says this:
“Downtown Boys are a political punk band from Providence, Rhode Island, who shake things up in a variety of ways. They sing in English and Spanish, switching between languages with such seamless ease that even when listeners don’t understand the words, they still get the point.”
Next up is a girl’s band from Washington D.C. and they formed in 2013. This band is Mary, Betsy and Laura and they are called Ex Hex and they are fab! (Regular readers and listeners know that I always like bands with female vocals!) This reminds me of early Go-Gos or the Bangles (when they were called, “The Bangs” and didn’t become shitty commercialism).
Next up is a band that is definitely going places! They are called The Mirror Trap and they are not newcomers to our chart. The Mirror Trap is an alternative indie rock band from Dundee, Scotland. The band have released two albums to date and they have supported fellow Dundee band The View and toured Russia with Placebo in the summer of 2014.
Finally, this week’s freebie! And it’s a Japanese band that were guests on our program a few weeks ago. Their name is Sawagi and they are from Kansai. Sawagi are a rock-dance music quartet band that incorporates jazz and funk.
Well, that’s it for this week! See you next time. Keep rocking and have a great weekend!

Hi! Today marks three months of Top 3 Videos! おめでとうございます!Congratulations! This is the lucky #13 of this series…. With such a lucky number, then I’d like to launch the “Weekend Edition of the Top 3 Videos” of the best of the new and independent artists. Number 13 is our lucky number!
Let’s kick off the party with a cool number from 1979. You are an oldie if you remember this one. Lene Lovitch with Lucky Number. She’s pretty – kinda weird. Reminds me of one of those silent movie actresses. Cool!
Why independent artists? Well, because, and it’s pretty simple; the major label stuff all sucks.That’s why.
It’s not my fault. It just does.
So without wasting time on BS, let’s get the the coolest new music out there!
First up is a new band named “Killmama”! This is a guy and girl from Florida. Besides that, I don’t know anything about them excepting that they ROCK! Dig this? Go “Like” their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/dontkillmama
Next up is a band that has become a regular on the Top 3 Videos countdown; taffy! I LOVE TAFFY! As of the writing of this article, taffy is touring the UK and are about to go to the USA.
#2 Taffy – Dr. K https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clYrx4VaZRc
This week’s #1 is touted as “True American Rock N’ Roll” and HELL YEAH! It’s a band named “Motobunny.” Can I give you information about this band? No. I cannot. The only thing I know is Rodney Bingenheimer has been playing them on KROQ Los Angeles. And, if it’s good enough for Rodney, then it’s good enough for me!
Finally! This week’s Freebie. And it’s Japan’s own “Buzzcocks,” they are known as the Privates and they’ve been rocking people’s socks off for 30 years! I love this band! It’s like every “Pebbles” and “Nuggets” band put together with an original touch.
Japanese rock stars and Ken Nishikawa and Mike Rogers …..That’s me and Ken from Robot55 getting too drunk with Su Ko D Koi, The Watanabes and Nobu from the Privates!
