"BABY ACTION" by SCANDAL (2011 / Full Album Feature)


Released in 2011, "Baby Action" is the third studio album by the Japanese rock band Scandal, and is the sole CD album I have of my favourite 4 member JRock band! Wow, the album is about 10 years old now, and still sounds phenomenal!

I have no memories of HOW or WHERE exactly I'd gotten this CD though - more likely at the local "Anime Festival Asia" perhaps, as CDs were harder to come back, back in the day - but I do remember snagging this CD even though I'd not heard a single track prior! BECOZ "SCANDAL", Dude! Offering up the right amount and mix (for my senses) of POP & ROCK and BOPS that still register in my soul, even though I do not understand a single word of the lyrics ... And I have since survived my love for SCANDAL via MVs on YouTube, constantly posting them on my personal Facebook LOL

One of my (standing) dreams is to be able to physically walk into a shop (preferably in Japan :p), and find/discover their discography and pick up the CDs...! I still prefer to own CDs of the bands I love though, as opposed to digital downloads, cheers :)



I found this album amidst my hoard, quite randomly and without much effort digging, and thought to do a pageflip (see video up top), take some snaps, and share the music below! ENJOY!
