[2024] ReiRie - Rabbits Rule Heaven (BLR)
Love me a little J-Pop, but you have to be selective. 99% of the Idol School stuff is generic twaddle and can be easily ignored. But I'm a big fan of Ladybaby, well once they grew up and got rid of Ladybeard. That whole thing was just to weird even for me. The original Rei and Rie solo stuff is great when they changed the name to The Idol Formerly Known As Ladybaby. Rei left in 2017 to restart the band Brats with her sister, and they put out some great tunes and two killer Punk Rock albums. Ladybaby reformed itself with Rie into a four piece Death Pop/Kawaii band, and they put out a couple of EP's and a great record before dissolving in 2020. Sadly the name is now being used by another incarnation without Rei or Rie and it's dire. Rie put out a few singles under the names ilie and trolleattroll before reuniting with Rei. Since then they've put out a few singles, which are compiled here and are back doing live shows. Anyhoo forgive the ramble. I put this together for myself, but maybe a couple of you might like it as well. Several of the tracks have already been on my monthly Playlists. They do the social media streaming thing and it can get pretty funny. So if you're interested you might wanna check that out as well.
