〈ねこ〉〈すうじ〉〈じゃんけんほい〉など子供番組に採用されそうなモチーフを散りばめたリリックと、ちょっぴりチャイルディッシュで愛らしい歌声が耳を惹く男女4人組の初ミニ作。バンド名がまんま体現しているふわふわしたポップ感にまず頬が緩むけど、女子ヴォーカルのそばでやたら歌いまくるギター・フレーズを筆頭に、さりげなく凝った構築的なアレンジに驚愕。ほっこりしつつもふいに切なさが訪れる詞世界も◎です。

necone, conecone.
"Tanoshii, Wakuwaku, Suru Ongaku. (meaning Fun and Exciting Music)"
First mini-album from the four boys/girls band necone, conecone has been released. Lyrics scattered with motifs like ‘cats’, ‘numbers’ or ‘paper-rock-scissors’ that could be used in children's television programs along with somewhat childish and cute vocals captivate their listeners. The softness and pop-ness of their music that embodies their band name will also put a smile on your face. Colorful guitar phrases that run alongside the girl’s vocals and subtle twists in structural arrangements are quite compelling as well. Cozy music with lyrics that creates a moment of melancholy is also superb.
