Gacharic Spin are a J Rock band started in 2009 and have since expanded into the final form. Lately, their themes have been quite existential and I was interested in covering what is their best iteration yet.
Shout out to YT user Gacharic Fan to keeping many of GS's videos alive.

Gachapin is without question among my all time favorite bands. The fact that they've consistently put out amazing music no matter what style they play speaks volumes about their world class talent.

Angelina 1/3 is smole but yuri is even smoler 🥺🥁 Thank you for introducing Gachapin to the world. And also for talking about DOLL$BOXX, even briefly. Two of my top 3 favorite bands.

Very nicely put together video. I nearly missed out on GS because I recoiled at the idol-culture elements, but as you show they're much more than that. A unique and extremely talented band, and yeah, their lyrics are a lot more interesting than most too.

Awesome job Meerkat! I love being introduced to new bands. (😶You really want to know why we're here? The meaning of life and all that? Come closer... Closer still... Ok, this is between me and you, so don't tell anyone else. The meaning of life, the whole reason we're here on earth can be summed up like this... Take a penny, go outside to a big field, close your eyes, spin around a few times, and throw the penny as far as you can... Then, open your eyes...)

Excellent profile of Gacharic Spin! I discovered them with Mindset, during Covid lockdown, and was blown away by their music. I did a deep dive into their background thanks to KZfaq, and it very quickly became apparent that, good though they might have been as musicians and performers in their previous iterations, it was the addition of Yuri and, especially, Angie that turned them into a truly great band. It was Angie's personality that captured my attention early on, and to learn that she was so young in comparison with the rest of the band, and had no previous musical background, was even more impressive. She has become the consummate lead singer over the past few years, with a very distinctive voice. This current six-member line-up is THE definitive Gacharic Spin, existentialism included!

Surprised me, I saw the thumbnail and thought G Spin had released another single, then I heard a Meerkat and...whoa, he's a fan. Eu Phoria was one of the first bands I got into when I got on line in 2009, I followed Tomo-Zo into Gspin. Female Jpop was why I got on line in the first place, I saw SCANDAL on PBS tv somewhere before 2009 and lost my mind, I wouldn't rest until I found a way to see them. Since the internet was as alien to me as life on Alpha Centauri, it took my brother to tell me to get a computer, duh er. Great video 👍

Discovering bands like this on KZfaq feels like an adventure sometimes. You come across them or sometimes accidentally miss them. It's all over the place. Like I discovered Mass of Fermenting Dregs eons ago just by browsing through random things.

What a great introduction to GS, @Meerkat. Nothing left out and your last remark on Angelina 1/3's growth as a vocalist which I find is best heard in Lonely Mart. Especially the version with only Oreo's piano accompaniment kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ea15hJSmqLqtl3U.html BTW, you mentioned their 1st derivative, Doll$boxx, another great band (apparently a revival is imminent, fingers crossed) but have you listened to their 2nd derivative, Metallic Spin? Though shortlived, it is quite entertaining. Rainbow cover, Spotlight Kid: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n6iHnrqW0NSuk6M.html - Tomo-zoo nailing Blackmore and Oreo rocking an Amadeus wig and John Lord-/Don Airy-style solo. Singer is also quite the voice!

My understanding is that OREOREONA was recruited to take on lead vocals following the departure of ARMMY.

Good video, the band sounds crazy weird and gets heavy on the side. I'm usually 50/50 on existential bands but I'll see what these guys are all about

I've been in a binge for a year almost, no day without a session of Gacharic Spin live videos, I knew about F Chopper Koga since 2015 and some GS songs from looking bass players on the internet but not after look at the underlying punk attitude this band has since the beggining, I love everybody involve, from Armmy to the gacha-gacha dancers and Fuki and now with their final form I just can't stop. I loved the video but yeah no mention of Metallic Spin or the zombie movie, I guess is too much lol

You stated that Yuri is 28. Where did you get this information. I’ve never seen any of the band mention their age except Angie and Oreo
@MaartenT
@MaartenT 4 ай бұрын
It's on the Jpop fandom page. Koga: December 22, 1986 Hana: May 16, 1986 Tomo-zo: September 10, 1988 Oreo: November 10, 1987 Yuri: March 6, 1995 (she just turned 29) Angie: December 25, 2001 And yes, it's a wiki so it could have been fabricated, but I honestly think these ages seem pretty legit. I have seen it on some other wiki pages as well. It all would make sense with when the 4 more experienced members came together and yuri was already in at least 2 other bands and couple that together with when she became a mom, I do think the age fits pretty well. To give you some others: Mai: June 30, 1997 Nenne: December 26, 1998
