The Pillows
0
Just wondering if anyone out there's heard of a little band called "The Pillows". They did some music for an anime called Fooly Cooly. I just thought I'd help spread the word of Japanese music. I love it so much and wish it was more popular here in the U.S., but some day I'll make to Japan and tell the world of its glories. Please comment :)

No one can profess to like Japanese music and not know who the pillows are.
I also think they became popular in Japan because of FLCL.
Favorite song by them: Last Dinosaur (I think that was it).
Makes me nostalgic :(

Hell yeah. The pillows are awesome. (But aren't there a thread about them already? Pretty sure i wrote in one quite recently.)
They are actually quite internationally well know, or so I would say.(About as famous as Cornelius perhaps? Famous enough for non anime/j-music fans to have heard of them) At least as far as Japanese music goes, and didn't they have their first US-Tour just now? together with the band "Noodles"? or something like that.
Anyhow. This band sure is awesome.
Favorites must be "I think I can", "Hybrid Rainbow" and "Hello, Welcome to Bubbletown's Happy Zoo"

Saw noodles in SF recently, but no Pillows (they did a performance with the pillows in NY, I think).
