Explosive Pannier-santricot

Explosive Panier-san tricot

tricot is a four-piece band with three women up front and a male drummer.

Armed with advanced musicianship, complex song structures, and a unique sense of pop, they are highly acclaimed not only in Japan but overseas as well.

Formed in 2010 by Ikkyu Nakajima, Motifour Kida, and Hiromi Hirohiro, they were joined the following year by their first drummer, komaki♂.

They launched their own label, BAKURETSU RECORDS, and steadily raised their profile in the indie scene.

In 2013, they drew attention abroad, being featured in the long-established UK music magazine NME, and in subsequent years continued their worldwide activities by performing at multiple European festivals; in 2019, they made their major-label debut.

Their music is remarkably unique: while their songs are built on intricate band ensembles that make heavy use of math-rock-style odd time signatures, they always fold in extremely pop, catchy melodies.

The way their nerdy musicality and J-pop-friendly vocals coexist so naturally shows an exquisite sense of balance.

After going major, they astonished listeners with an unflagging creative pace, releasing two full-length albums in 2020 and then Jōdeki, their third major-label album, in 2021.

If you feel that “post-rock” sounds intimidating or highbrow, starting with tricot to get acquainted with its elements might be a great choice.

wacci “Buddy” lyric video
Buddywacci

A wacci bond song whose simple words touch the heart.

“Buddy” carries the nuance of comrades with whom you can open up and have deep conversations—more than just friends—and it brings to mind teammates and rivals you’ve fought alongside.

It’s a warm track that fits vividly into everyday life in a way that’s so wacci, gently staying by your side.

There are times when you’re riding the wave, and times when you fall into a slump.

Thinking that my buddies are surely giving it their all even now gives me the courage to say, “I’ll do it too!” Perhaps the feelings we have for our companions are themselves a kind of bond.
