SAISAI PHENOMENON Are you not entertained?
Their songs are pretty, they're pretty, they're huge at home, they sing, they dance,
they have heart, they have the SaiSai Family wherever J-pop is found…
Sold-out 2016 July Japan tour final show at the Yokohama Arena〜〜〜〜〜
Aignan, Hinanchu, Suu, Yukarun, and the "S" is silentSilent Siren started out as magazine models for the young-teen glamour bible
CUTiE.
That is, three of them did. Drummer/model Hinako met guitarist-singer-songwriter/model
Sumire on the job and got friendly.
How come we're not rockstars, Suu-chan?
In the origin story, Hinanchu recruits fellow
CUTiE model Ayana for the synth,
and fellow print model/college beauty queen Aina for the bass, and lo, a
commercial unit is formed under her leadership.
The name
SAIRENTO SAIREN was picked for the fun of it. It feels vaguely edgy in
a safe way, has symmetry, sounds like "sirens with sirens" or sirens together.
99.9% of fans won't connect the original mythic sense of "siren".
Can they play? They sure don't waste the fans' attention on a lot of photos
of them deeply involved with musical instruments…
Dr. Hinanchu: legit can play. Faking it is harder than doing it. Ba. Aignan: can play; elsewise the drummer would go mental.Kb. Yukarun and Vo./Gt. Suu… respectable. Ayana quit to be a lawyer. That was six albums ago, at least a solid mini-album every year since 2010.
By 2015 they were appearing at the summer festivals. They're relentlessly touring
their 4th major-label album till year-end in Japan, Indonesia, China, the US (twice).
We owe it to our stylists, they leave nothing to chance.They got granted a stage at Nippon Budokan, sooner after debut than any other
pop artists (by marketing math). Three summers in a row, AVEX Creative has
helped used them to sponsor SaiSai Fes, their own little summer festival at Studio COAST.
2016 June 26 at the Fukushima City Concert HallThe venue only holds 1,000 which is peanuts, so they played 2 consecutive nights.
It's Suu-chan's hometown.
"Guru-Guru Wonderland" finale looking pretty ROKKU. They brought that huge pink riser wherever they went.Flying hickory attack — Hina's high drumstick ricochet, Aina for the saveWhat' not to love about this? It's right out of the SCANDAL playbook!
Well, not exactly it isn't. Scandal grubbed their way up out of the garage on
a bit of pre-professional training in performance, and a do-or-die work ethic.
They acquired an image as they went, based on who they were.
Scandal have always been band-first. So much so that, when Rina got cold feet in
high school, the other girls beat down her resignation, saying there wasn't going
to be any Scandal that didn't include her.
Your sugar floss harem — infinite adaptability of pink tulleSilent Siren are with image-first specialist idol management companies. They
started from an image, and are maintaining a high-profile band to express it.
That's actually a problem, because their image doesn't want to let them grow up.
They're all over 25, and still celebrating the emotional life of a 14 year old.
SaiSai are resolutely bubblegum, which in their case means vending unicorns and
rainbows to the girls out of one side of their wagon, and candy-coated jailbait
to the boys out of the other side.
This is just not for me — I'm sure the band agrees. To continue much longer, they have to make a transition… to what, exactly?
To something outside of the pink sugar bubble they officially live in.
But that's cooking the golden goose.
They're interesting people surrounded by talent, so if the bosses and the
audience will let them… maybe they can do it. Right now they have a lot of
tickets and records to sell.
Products and services, too.
Some of my best friends are labels. All of them maybe are.

2016 March 20 (Sunday) SaiSai performing in the Yoyogi National Gymnasium,
Yoyogi Park, Tokyo at "TOKYO GIRLS' MUSIC FES 2016" // TOKYO GIRLS' COLLECTIONActually doing the leading album cut live, no synching. Everybody but Aignan
looks like they're working hard. Sumire is often bothered by her in-ear monitor.
The official MV is the sweet and sticky trap they're currently in. Three caricatures
out of a teen manga show up at a girls-only party. G-rated merriment ensues.

Chuku-chuku is smooch-smooch, kissy-face SFX for making out.
