Champagne is a 4-piece japanese band that sound like your typical American rock band. Think “All American Rejects” and Weezer and you get an idea of their sound. But pop/alternative rock isn’t a bad thing, and Champagne’s first single “For Freedom” sounds pretty good actually. Love the guitarmanship in the middle of the song.
You can hear some songs over at Champagne’s myspace page. Many of the vocals are in English too, so there is always potential for crossover. Learn more about the band over at their official website.
They are fairly new and their first album will be hitting the store shelves in January. You can preorder the band’s first album Where’s my potato? from Amazon.jp now for release on Jan 20th, 2010.
