Sandaime J Soul Brothers? EXILE THE SECOND? Have yall heard about the First Gen EXILE?

[Jotham]

These classic songs which won them their solid fanbase have all disappeared along with SHUN First Gen EXILE, and it sucks for their old fans.

Atsushi is the only first gen member left in the current EXILE line-up

Back when they were more of a R&B act and not an idol group.

I've been revisiting old school EXILE lately. It's really interesting how their sound evolved ever since they Morning Musume'd their group.

 

Your eyes only, style, Breezin together, SCREAM and HERO were all my favourites.  I don't really have a negative opinion of their EDM songs (like BOW and ARROWS), but they are getting a bit stale.

 

Interestingly they released Melody this year was very old school of them. I hope they stick this sound for a bit.

Nowadays they seem too try hard.
