Tribute To Motion City Soundtrack My Favorite Soundtracks

[Machine Translation] Motion City Soundtrack, a band that has been a representative of the scene since the 2000s and has gained a large following among power pop fans, pop punk fans, and emo fans, has gathered artists from Japan and abroad following the band's hiatus. The splendid artists from Japan and abroad who respect Motion City Soundtrack will cover old and new classic songs. This is a tribute album by former kids who were saved by Motion City Soundtrack's music, and who started playing music because of them, as a token of their gratitude. From Japan, Nard Magnet, who have long professed the influence of Motion City Soundtrack and were the opening act for their last Japan tour in Osaka, Nagoya's ONIONRING, who also profess their influence, Osaka power pop/pop punk scene leaders THE Taro Miura, former vocalist of Holidays of Seventeen and current member of Friends. From overseas, the Sanglorians, led by OZMA mastermind Daniel, who became popular in Japan after appearing at NANO-MUGEN FES, THE SHOUT & SHIMMY, a new solo project by former Junior Achiever guitarist Dave, and The Cavalry Is Issue, which is gaining attention in the New York indie-pop punk scene. The Cavalry Is Us, and more, all of whom have transcended national borders and overflowed with love for the Motion City Soundtrack.
