2nd FT Island, C.N. Blue Will Debut In Japan

[kishikiari.livejournal.com]

C.N. Blue (Code Name Blue) will be debuting in Japan on August 19th as an Indie band with an album called "Now or Never". They are already called the "Second F.T. Island" due to their similar sound and style. In fact, C.N. Blue is actually in the same company as F.T. Island, F&C Music (Fish and Cake Music).

The members are consisted of Jung Yong Hwa (vocal and guitar), Lee Jong Hyun (Vocal, guitar), Kwon Kwang Jin (basist), Kang Min Hyuk (drums). You can listen to their music on their myspace. I have to say, they do not sound exactly like F.T. Island, but they do share similar styles. C.N. Blue has a more street and raw sound.

I'll be looking forward to them. I just hope their sound doesn't turn into F.T Island's current stuff, which is too meh for my taste. I like the dude with the long hair. O: I have a feeling they're all younger than me.

The long hair dude was born in 1992 if I'm not wrong. He's the youngest~

I really want to know how old they are ㅠ_ㅠ lol

[crystalheng.livejournal.com]

The eldest was born in 1989 and the youngest was born in 1992.

[siouxsies.livejournal.com]

Ah I like I like. Their songs sound good to me :)

[nomorethanwords.livejournal.com]

lol.

I wish they promote FTI better in Japan because they're more like a band there than in Korea.

[oystersauce87.livejournal.com]

Oh so they're a 4-person band now that Seunghyun left? :/
but I like their music. Hope they will do well there.
Is F&C debuting them there because debuting them in Korea isn't a good thing? I mean look at FTI. They're hardly a band in Korea as compared to in Japan.

[nishiara-hitomi.livejournal.com]

IMO C.N BLue sound/music style > FTI sound/music style.

I think they're debuting in Japan because they're too much of a band for korean tastes ;;<.< Korea tends to kill any artist who doesn't sound poppish, autotuned, or pseudo hip hop.

[kokorabbit5.livejournal.com]

Ehhhh yeah I don't think they sound all that similar.

tybn, I think I'll stick to FTI. :/

[xxsmiiles.livejournal.com]

Eh, they're kinda cute. I wonder where I can find more in-depth biographies and better pictures lol.

[jaesther.livejournal.com]

they sound more rock as compared to ftisland.
i'm quite looking forward to their debut.

[majimak-bb.livejournal.com]

lol was i the only one who immediately thought CODE NAME KIDS NEXT DOOR haha i'm such a loser.

i think fti just sounds like jpop/rock. is there a way to make asian instrumental music not sound like jpop/rock?

FISH AND CAKE MUSIC? LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[crystalheng.livejournal.com]

GIVE ME A FISH!
GIVE ME A CAKE!
WHAT DO YOU GET?

[beebz-x.livejournal.com]

The lead singer can play guitar !!
woot !

Dang, they're tall D:

[crystalheng.livejournal.com]

Am liking the drummer~~~ At least he's older than me :)
But Jonghoon >>> him :X

The bassist looks like Jaejin to me at times. But hello, same age~

I'll be anticipating them. :D

[psychedelicred.livejournal.com]

the preview seems okay but it lacks strong rhythm and the lead singer is kinda lacking.
let's hope that they remain true to their music.
look what has became of FT ISLAND with the third album.
the third album is shitty!

[talgi-uyu.livejournal.com]

Interesting... I think they sound kinda amateurish. Like they recorded it in their garage.

I dunno I'll look out for them but yeah they don't sound like fti at all o.o

[lostscene.livejournal.com]

interesting.
i already like them haha
