Coquettish is nice punk ska band!!(yeah!) they like the suicide machines & Operation IVY!! this band is japanese not popular band! play underground....uummm [So,I say goodbye] is great punk song! Hey! Let's listening [You chase me]!!! Let's gooooo!!!!

It obviously deserves 5 stars for effort. Getting a signed on a major record label, coping to the american standards of music, and surviving. I say they will meet Choking Victim, Operation Ivy, and Streetlight as the best in ska.

Just listen "You Should Be Free, This Is Your Life", and dare to tell me that Japan doesn't produce.

I can't say I would list this album in my top 5 due to the high volume of other great albums out there, but I can say that pound for pound, this is possibly one of the best albums I own. The music on the album is 100% high energy with no filler and sounds quite original and unique to my ears. I mean, a lot of punk is very derivative, and Coquettish really seems to have their own sound here. The album is only 10 minutes long (!), which might seem a disadvantage. However, if you take that view and buy the band's follow-up "High Energy Politics", you'll be making a mistake. Not a second on this album is wasted, and the follow-up, in my opinion, can't hold a candle to this one. "Such a Foolish Man" alone is worth it; I can confidently say it is one of my favorite songs of all-time, even though I could not sing along with it if I tried (yes, the singing is pretty incoherent, but I don't think it takes away from it one bit).

So, basically, buy this album.

This band, Coquettish, is clearly a band made up of Japanese members. It's not very good, but it's a bit entertaining. No bad language, adaquate instruments, bad vocals.

Coquettish has released a very strange and crazy CD of poor Japanese punk rock. It's quite pointless, and it's very strange, and you will have a very difficult time understanding words, but it's entertaining.
