Tokyo's Coolest Sound

Indie pop band Sloppy Joe (Facebook page) has a brand new 2nd album about to be released! Included are a bunch of new songs, as well as two previously released on 7" in 2013, "Once And For All" and "That Day". Hear new song "Lonely Tonight" below. The album was mixed and mastered by Satō Seiki (microstar).

This album comes nine years after their first full-length "With Kisses Four" (2011), since which trumpeter Kunimi Tomoko (Wack Wack Rhythm Band, nimit & co.) joined the band after having been a support member. A vinyl edition of the first album is also being released at the same time, also remastered by Satō Seiki (see below).
