SPECIAL OTHERS

Special Others is a Japanese post-rock band that blends improvised jazz and post-rock influences to create a modern style of jazz that is popular with younger club scene fans. The members of the band met in high school and formed the group in 1995. They began performing in earnest in 2000, and their first major release, Indy-Ann, remained in the CRJ-tokyo charts for seven weeks.

Their first release on NMNL Records was the EP"Ben" which entered the Tower Records Shibuyaindie chart at #1, and #2 in the national Tower Records chart. After releasing their second EP, "Uncle John", in June, 2005, the band played at theFuji Rock Festival in July.

In June, 2006, they released "Idol", which was followed by a sell-out gig at Daikanyama UNIT in July, the release "Aims" at Tower Records in October, and the release of their long-awaited first full album, "Good Morning", on November 22. The band toured with Asian Kung-Fu Generationfrom late 2006, with guest appearances at five performances across Japan.
