Your Song Is Good

Formed in the spring of 1997 by the four members of Nuts & Milk along with former Fruity frontman Jun "JxJx" Saito, the band pioneered a raw, frantic blend of thrash, funk, punk, ska and soul.

They initially took to a melodic hardcore direction influenced by late 1980s DC bands such as Dag Nasty and early 1990s emo .

Ska influences from their previous bands - in particular The Specials - would soon resurface and a trombone player (Hattori) would be added to the fold.

After an extended period of intense practice and honing an entirely new musical direction, Your Song is Good re-emerged.

Combining elements from ska, soul, funk and calypso, they distilled their punk energy into a refined and uniquely Japanese sense of melody.
