Couldn't sleep without them.

As for the music, I looked up a few videos on youtube, and definitely not my cup of tea.

Well, they are definitely not bad, actually pretty fun, but the music style isn't something I'd tuck in to my cd-player. If they'd play The Pillows on the radio, I wouldn't change the channel, but that's about it. Props to the singer for sounding like himself, sometimes it seems like every modern singer in Japan try to sound the same. Or maybe that's just in the Visual Kei -scene.

Well, I can't say I'm a hardcore fan, but at least I have heard of them. I think they are an awesome group that are out there to have fun. I also admire the fact that they have preformed in the USA quite a few times, even if they are small concerts.

First heard of their music through the anime FLCL. Then bought their Little Busters album, LOVE BLUES DRIVE MONSTER!!! It is made of an awesomeness, like a lot of their music, that makes me feel good!

While this thread is sitting here, I might as well make use of it. I just started playing their album Moon Gold on my computer a few minutes ago and realized how much I really like it. It was the first full album of theirs that I have listened to and was surprised to find that I loved their musical style even back then. I now want to buy a copy of it but can't find one anywhere!!! I want to have a legit copy now.  :P  Any help?

Also by the way whats the shipping like at hmv?

Well, shipping is 1064 yen at HMV for the one CD I got...that's OK. They only ship things overseas using EMS so I guess it's pretty good.....lol better than Amazon by the sounds of it!

EDIT: HMV also seem to have cheaper prices.
