En: A.M.D.K.J. / SCANDAL

Veteran "Young" Band

Scandal is a four piece Japanese girls rock band, who has already survived for more than a decade in today's competitive music scene.

Yes, they're a kind of veteran band with incredibly young looks. 

Can you believe they're all around 30 years old?

Diverse Musical Style

Though their musical style has been diverse throughout their career, its core has always been their unique pop sense.

In addition, it seems they're putting a greater focus on authentic rock band sounds in the recent years.

What is "A.M.D.K.J." ?

Then their new single / MV has arrived, which turned out a killer rock tune.

Oh my, what a great punk / alternative vibe! Arrangement is seriously good...

I know it's still January, but this song is definitely a strong candidate for the best J-rock song of the year! 

BTW, about this weird title.

A.M.D.K.J. is an acronym for "Amidakuji", a kind of Japanese kids play for decision making.

Some websites describe it as "ladder lottery" and they're showing how it works in this video.
