SpecialThanks released latest single "Great Guitar" on Monday 7th July.
And album "SEVEN COLORS" on Wednesday 6th Aug.
"SEVEN COLORS" is available on CD and download.
"SpecialThanks" the much-feted female vocal pop-punk band from Aichi Prefecture is set to release its first mini album SEVEN COLORS – all tracks on which are sung in English – on August 6, 2008. SpecialThanks is the latest newcomer to this genre and is expected to become as popular as any of its predecessors. The band formed in 2005 and having gone through several lineup changes now comprises Misaki (vocals, guitar), Lupin (bass, backing vocals), Sean (guitar, backing vocals) and Nochi (Dr). With the captivating talents of Misaki who skillfully combines incontrovertible vocal skills and a powerful expressiveness that appeals also to mainstream pop music fans, together with the grown-up charisma that belies her 18 years and cute looks, the band delivers not the pretty sound common to bands with female vocalists but the old school pop punk style that prevailed during the 90s, which has been rare in Japan, and is causing a considerable stir among pop punk fans, bandsmen, and music industry pundits across the board.
