For whatever reason, Japanese independent musicians seem to have a LOT of trouble shipping stuff out correctly.
Hora and Satoko may be the only ones to do it well in the entire country :lol:
It sounds silly, but I'm serious. I mean, remember Mon Amour and Kaya solo, etc.

It's probably not even worth the extra money to a large number of them.

The new ZIZ mini-album is available on Amazon.co.jp for 500Y:

I haven't gotten it yet, but I guess I will because the price is right. I do hope this doesn't mean Kozi is going completely live-only for physical goods though ::hora::

Did anyone try buying the MP3s? Amazon was giving me trouble with it, it wouldn't accept my address so I couldn't buy them.

EDIT: actually it's also available on the US Amazon site for $3.56:

Will try that tonight.

Why is Adele on the cover?
And for that matter, did anyone guess that Kozi reads "The Onion"? ::meev::

I picked up the MP3s last night but it didn't really impress me much. It's just... more ZIZ. If you liked any of their other stuff you'll like this, and if you didn't, you won't. If you were hoping for some spark of genius hidden in there like "With Fu", you're out of luck.

I acctually thought JEEZ was really good! Like one of their best acctually XD And the tiny bit of the Pv that showed in the preview video was nice. Közi wearing that lamp-shade-frill looking hat was hot ::gaku::

I don't know if I'd say "generic" - they definitely have their own recognizable sound for whatever that's worth. It's just that whatever sort of 80s-inflected rock they're going for isn't very interesting musically. What a waste of talent this whole thing is though - does anyone know if Kozi wrote any of the songs at all?

It worked! Thought some might want to see the liner notes for ZIZ JEEZ ect. The "THK U XXX" was on the inside of the card outside of case, cute to see. The music isn't bad and definitely sounds great live. I bought this at DSV. They are also selling it at Tower in Japan.

Does anyone remember that old interview with Kozi/Mana where they talk about meeting and how they were working a dodgy job (or something similar) at the time, but wouldn't give any information on what it was? Or did I just imagine this interview?
