The 5.6.7.8.'s - Three Cool Chicks

I've decided to jump continents and post a track from Japan today. You might recognize this band from a Kill Bill soundtrack, but they have so many more songs than that one song everyone keeps on mentioning when they see the name of this band.

The 5.6.7.8.'s - Three Cool Chicks

This band is a trio from Japan that didn't really know what to name themselves, so they decided to name the band "The 5.6.7.8.'s" because they play music from the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's. They're very reminiscnient of surf rock and they also do many covers of American rock bands.

Social Studies - So Retro

This track is another track from another local band, that was unfortunately very shortlived. This dancey keyboard catchy rock trio formed in 2005 and broke up mid 2007 due to the band moving and being seperated. During their time together, they recorded two full-lengths.

Social Studies - So Retro

This band put up pretty amazing live shows, where the band members would swap instruments so each band member would alternate instruments for nearly every single song they play during their set.
