So I've had a chance to delve into the solo careers of some of the OG Morning Musume members (while I await the newest single with the Kyukkies)
When I look back at the singers of the groups and the lead vocals I always seemed to skip over Maki Goto, after all she wasn't around terribly long and I never really paid much attention to her being wedged between my favorites (Marippe and the W "twins") and I now see that it was a huge mistake on my part. I've recently gotten a few of her mini-albums from Avex and I'm honestly blown away, it's a shame that she hasn't had the chance to produce a full album yet (I'm hoping there is one on the way sometime next year at least.)
Her most recent mini-album, Gloria, came out January 12th and it certainly lives up to her vocal talent in my opinion. The song "Fake" is my favorite blending strong vocals and a soft-rock edge. The rest of the album is slower songs showing off her vocal skills. All in all I love it, I just wish there were more songs.
She has released a "sneak peek" PV (as Avex has taken to doing it seems) and I figured I'd share it here! So enjoy the new Maki Goto~
