Nikaidoh Kazumi

[Veck]

Anyone heard of her? I can only find a few songs from soulseek, but I just heard a song called 'Next Week' which is absolutely incredible.. almost like Björk crossed with Xiu Xiu.. even though I hate comparisons like that..

Yeah, well I only mention this here because I searched on google images for a picture and saw a poster (that wouldn't load when I clicked on it) but it seemed to advertise a concert where Mount Eerie were headlining, Nikaidoh Kazumi was supporting and down the bottom was written Xiu Xiu, as if they were one of the smaller bands.. hmm.. I thought it was interesting, but i think Xiu Xiu fans should check her out
see what you think

EDIT: the question here, I suppose, was does anyone know of this concert that I saw the poster for? and do we have any Japanese fans on this board.. hmm just curiosity...

Ummm I was in Japan earlier this year, and by chance heard a Kazumi Nikaidoh tune being played in a rekid store - and i became rather smitten....I purchased an album proper by the name of "Eeel", an ep (whose title is in japaese) and a mini-live-album-thing....all of which are rather fantastic...but alas i have no significant information to contribute.

I love her a whole lot

I have the album Mata Otoshimasitayo...which is japanese for "Hey Eeel, You Dropped Something Again, Didn't You" i think....

standout tracks would be track 3 - even though the time passes, and track 8 - te-wa-wa-na-ge-si. definitely worth a listen if you like xiuxiu.

one of the videos on the disc is kinda sad, her playing her guitar in a zoo, with elephants swaying in the background..
