here the tweet of the group's announcement back in 2020



and here their debut song



in the title "girl's band revolution" is a reference to their predecessor group "girl's rock band kakumei" Kakumei means revolution, off topic but one of my favorite songs from the girl band SILENT SIREN is their song "Kakumei"

i know about TRiDENT for a while already but not since the very start, probably around 2021 or so was the first time i heard about them? i plan to expand with their discography, music videos, interesting facts and more stuff about the band, the members also have other side projects aside from the band particularly ASAKA so i plan to post about them too

i've been wanting to make a thread about them but never got around to doing so, i plan to make other threads about bands too (Hitsujibungaku and a few more)

they just announced a new mini album「spice "X"」goes on sale on May 22

honestly i don't know much (if anything) about their time as Girls Rock Band Kakumei, after adding the info on TRiDENT i'm going to look into the other stuff

i searched around and for whatever reason while there are a lot of post or threads about their MVs there is not much about their discography itself, like B-sides and other things so i plan to add the relevant stuff about it

btw they have a mascot called Toraberus (he is called like that in merch) i wonder, isn't "tri" in Japanese read as tora (for example trident i think is read as "toraidento") so the name could actually be "Triberus" as in TRiDENT + cerberus but also could be Tora(tiger)berus", anyway that probably doesn't matter much

seems they used to had a mascot when they were Girls Rock Band Kakumei he was an anthropomorphic hedgehog with bad temper (ORIGINAL CHARACTER DO NOT STEAL!!) called Rebo kun, here a depiction of him handing the baton (that is what the text in the tweet above says) to Toraberus



also i forgot but this is their logo, is already in the post above as placeholder while i find something to put there

seems that the month prior to becoming TRiDENT they published a series of 4 koma strips about what happened between the disbandment of Girls Rock Band Kakumei and before TRiDENT's debut there are 30 and they don't really have much words, dunno if there are translations around but if not i wonder if they would be easy to translate






wonder who did the drawings?

btw i still don't know when was the first time i heard about them but my oldest TRiDENT related bookmark is from 2020 so a few months after their debut, i thought it wasn't until 2021 but i was wrong

from their first releases my favorite is "WE ARE THE WORLD" i think and my favorite title track is "Brand New World"

these 3 go together because they were part of a digital release project that happened between October and December of 2020, unlike "Continue" that was exclusive to Oricon's music store these were released in multiple digital stores and streaming sites

i was about to post the others of their discography but now i'm not sure what to believe, why? because i don't know if "WE ARE THE WORLD" is a single or a mini album, it should be a single since it only contains 3 songs like their two previous releases, i can't imagine why would it be considered a mini album but in some places appears listed as one so i don't know what to believe

for example in TRiDENT's official page is listed as a mini album

but in the release tweet appears listed as their 3rd single

TRiDENT teased two big news in commemoration of their 4th anniversary the first today and the second on the 2nd of March



so the first news is that the members started a sub channel "more TRiDENT channel / もっとTRiDENTちゃんねる" you can expect stuff like bloopers, behind the scenes, non musical related stuff about members and other things





i was wondering why it has more than 20k subscribers right after the announcement and turns of that the new channel is actually the channel of "Girls Rock Band Kakumei" that wasn't active since they became TRiDENT, they deleted everything in it a while ago and the channel was just there without being used so that makes sense, i think is a nice idea

cool hope they post regularly, also i wonder what is going to be the next announcement?

anyway to add to the confusion here is where the band started branding their releases with "TRIDENT-01", "TRIDENT-02", etc for example their mini album「spice-x-」should be "TRIDENT-14"

the thing is that ADVANCE GENERATION is both the 01 and 02, it was released in a normal (02) and limited edition (01) and seems they count them as different?

the limited edition came in a box with lots of goodies, i wonder what else what in it? i think a DVD and photobook or something like that

(not my pictures)

here the members visiting music stores to commemorate the release of ADVANCE GENERATION









they also held fan sign events

something interesting about them ASAKA and SERINA are their real names not only that both of them have the surname Matsuyama, is even more strange because before when they were Girls Rock Band Kakumei the other member JUNNA also have the name Matsuyama

the first mention about it is from 2013 seems








how i found about it? because i was researching their label, still interesting how the have the same name they even joke about being twins i wonder if that's just a joke

so i've been wondering about their label turns out they are the owners of their own agency "松山制作委員会" something along the lines of "Matsuyama production committee" it represented both GRBK and TRiDENT

mini album
release date June 28, 2021

track list

1) VOLTAGE
2) No Regret
3) STEP BY STEP
4) CHANGE
5) START




the mini album was exclusive to the venue of their 1st anniversary concert, the special thing about it is that is a compilation of new versions of songs of their predecessor group Girls Rock Band Kakumei

for example

VOLTAGE, STEP BY STEP are from GRBK's mini album"UPDRAFT"
No Regret, Start are from GRBK's album "DON'T STOP"
CHANGE is from GRBK's mini album "HIGH SPEED MAGNUM"

i plan to cover their stuff at some point after i'm done with TRiDENT's

they released a live video of No Regret
