HONEBONE third album [Funade] out on October 5th

Japanese pop duo and comedic(?) unit HONEBONE is releasing their third album, Funade, on October 5th. The album will contain 11 original tracks with titles ranging from “Tired of living” to “Why don’t we go to hell?” The music consists of a variety of catchy pop tunes that lean toward the acoustic side.

I’m not sure what to think of this group, because unlike most artists, they don’t seem to take themselves very seriously. Are they the Weird Al of J-Pop? Vocalist Emily has a very visible sense of humor to go with her considerable singing ability. You can decide for yourself from their Youtube videos, with links below the track list.

Track list:

1. 生きるの疲れた | Ikiru no tsukareta :: Tired of living
2. 満月こわい | Mangetsu kowai :: Fear of the full moon
3. 港の唄 | Minato no uta :: Harbor song
4. 恋愛相談 | Renai soudan :: Love advice
5. S
6. 空き缶蹴って | Akikan kette :: Kick the empty can
7. トラウマ | Trauma
8. 空は青いのに | Sora wa aoi no ni :: Though the sky is blue
9. 地獄に落ちようか | Jigoku ni ochiyou ka :: Why don’t we go to hell?
10. 安全運転 | Anzen unten :: Safe driving
11. あっけらかん | Akkerakan :: Indifference
