Band Maid are asked to do many Anime themes songs. A big new anime in Japan about a rock band is called 'Rock is a Lady's Modesty'. 'Ready to Rock' will be released soon and a few spoiler bits have been released. But what is fun for the band is some of them were asked to appear and had to wear those stop motion suits. They have had an anime of themselves but never appeared in stop motion.

Oh and this was the anime MV that was made of a song they did.

Under the Influence
Hank Williams was  very influential in modern music, obviously country artists such as Johnny Cash, Townes van Zandt, etc. but the young Bob Dylan was very influenced through hearing him on the radio.

Shane McGowan, with post Pogues band, the Popes sems obviously influenced by the above Hank song here! You can see him and the Popes doing this in concert on YouTube; and also him doing an actual Hank Williams song, The Angel of death, which i thought was maybe a bit morbid to pot- great version though, imo!

Temperance Movement

[WhiteJC]

I've been listening a lot to Diane Birch recently, as far as I know she's only made three albums,

Bible Belt	2009
Speak A Little Louder	2013
Flying On Abraham	2024

Diane Birch - what is love

[Lighthouse]

I LUV ME are worth getting to know. The couple have some nice songs and this has a nice mix of hope and sadness. Plus they are always willing to engage with the audience on line.

Insane  -  Electric Purge

[WhiteJC]

Sacha - til I don't

[Lighthouse]

An original song based on a US gothic legend. Mieux provides the vocals and it has very much the Hammer House of Horror feel to it.
