ahh!! they just released an new album sweet machiato?? thats not the name im pretty sure.
but they are a really good band!!

[Lindoodoo]

^ Close, it's Sentimental Macchiato. I edited the first post.

[busagiboo]

I love SID. They're so good. I only have three of their albums; I can't find play #9.

My favourite song by them is Ajisai, probably because that was the first song I heard from them. Aribai is really good too.

[hydest]

Ahhh Shido~! xDD I love this band too x3 I got SM album the other days and it's good

[KuYA II]

Mitsuyubi is the song that got me addicted to them. It was something new and fresh and i like the mix of jrock with kinda jazz vibe into it. I liek their new song Namido no Ondo. I like Mao's voice a lot..very nice and pleasant to listen to ^^

[Joanna]

YAY SID THREAD! <33 i love SID hehe. my fav songs are Otegami and Namida no Ondo! their songs are soo nice! jazz, ballad, rock, pop all in one! My fav is Mao! =D though Aki is really sexy haha

^Mitsuyubi was actually the first song i heard from them and yep it got me addicted too xD

[b06]

yeah, a SID thread...ahh...i really like them. I don't think they're VK anymore, they're something else, but they've got awesome music and personally, i think, they should get more fans (no offence), and Mao and Yuuya are so dorky and lovable during interviews.

[NO NAME?]

I made this gif some time ago. Ah Aki...

yeah they're not vk anymore. I think Mao mentioned it in his blog before that they've always wanted leave the VK scene because they cant very well express their style of music while they're VK. And I think they look better now too. Aki, Yuuya & Shinji suited the VK look and attitude, but I didnt think Mao looked comfortable with it (based on what I observed in their comment clips form VK days). Just my observation Anyway, two of my favourite songs are from their VK days: Ajisai & Alibi.

[Lindoodoo]

^ Me too me too! Those two are my favorite songs. ^__^

Gah. That Aki gif... xD *Nosebleeds then dies*
Is it me or does Aki look a teeny bit like Hiroto from his side view?
Or maybe i'm just crazy... .___.;

yehh they arent VK anymore haha. i think they look better hehe, especially Mao. though i really liked Shinji's look when he was VK xD
yeh SID is quite underrated i think >< they arent as popular as the other jrock bands. they should be noticed more, their music style is really unique! hehe

HAHA I love that aki gif!! he's so sexy xD

^hmm i dont really see it, i dont think

[emptyfeeling]

i adore SID @___@

my favorite track on sentimental macchiato is definitely #5 ~ yuuwaku collection<3

[drella;]

Ah, so they had an album released back in February? It's been awhile since I listened to them & for some reason I like their old stuff more x:
Mao has a really nice voice though <3~ lol that Aki gif *0*

[aishiteruhoney]

ah. I'm such a fangirl for AKI<3
That gif is sexy.. :3
Aha~ my avatar is even Aki..
mm..

Sentimental Macchiato is an awesome CD.
I recommend everyone to buy it.
It's so worth it!
They even come with trading cards, lol.

[b06]

Great news! SID is going major!

SID literally just announced at their tour final "period" that they're finally going major. They'll be releasing a new album entitled "Side B complete collection ～e.B～" on 13th August, it will be made up of all their past singles' coupling tracks + one new song.

It will be released in 3 types, Types A + B will each come with a DVD.

Their last indies tour is a livehouse tour and starts on 2nd June ~ 26th July, a total of 28 stops if I'm not wrong. Tour final = Budokan.

Congratulations to the band♥
