[JAPAN] TRIPLANE’s “Monologue” to be used as a CM song for FUJI TV’s Flower net

FUJI TV’s flower shop (Flower net) will be using the band TRIPLANE’s latest song “Monologue” as the theme for their latest commercial.

TRIPLANE is an interesting band because of the comparisons to Mr. Children.

The group which was formed back in 2002 consists of vocalist, guitarist and songwriter Ebata “Samurai” Hyoue (who people say he’s like Mr. Children’s Sakura Kazutoshi which Ebata respects); guitarist Kawamura “Kane” Kenji; bassist Takeda Kazuya and drummer Hirota “Tan” Makoto (the leader of the band).

Lead vocalist Ebata’s voice is very similar to Mr. Children’s Sakurai Kazutoshi and thus the frequent comparisons.
