THEE MICHELLE GUN ELEPHANT

Garage Rock

・Overview & Author’s personal opinion

THEE MICHELLE GUN ELEPHANT is a Japanese four-piece rock band. Their main abbreviations are Michelle and TMGE. they debuted in 1996 and broke up in 2003.

It’s no exaggeration to say that this is my favorite band, and definitely one of the best rock bands in Japan.

The guitars are just so cool.

I’ve never heard this style of guitar playing before.

When I first heard them, I was also shocked by the singer’s voice.

Listening to their music is what got me into playing the guitar, and they are a really important band to me.

Unfortunately, you can’t listen to their songs on spotify from abroad, so I’ll post more recommended Youtube videos than usual.

I’ll also post English translations of the lyrics.

ロシアン・ハスキー / Russian husky

It's the husky that's out of alignment, or it's the husky that's oozing

Squeeze it out and it oozes out husky

Oh yeah!

Cry like an engine, Russian husky

Husky, you're doing it or not, Husky

When you see a bone, it's the husky that sucks it

Oh yeah!

Cry like an engine, Russian husky

You're a dead husky, you're a dead husky, you're a dead husky, you're a dead husky

Bite down from the waist down, husky

Oh yeah!

I mean, it's like an ellipse

Get it over with, just get it over with

Cry like an engine, Russian husky
デッドマンズ・ギャラクシー・デイズ / Dead Man's Galaxy Days

Midnight Club Heaven

They want to see a circus.

It's my job to ride the tunes

I feel like I've been pelted with cat food

Dead Man Days

Dead Man Days

Dead Man Days

I'm being sucked into the black universe that unfolds before me

A dizzying journey in zero gravity

Dead Man Days

Dead Man Days

Dead Man Days

A high-pitched yell echoes joyously, and the clown hangs himself

And they were still laughing.

Dead Man Days

Dead Man Days

Dead Man Days

Accelerating Galaxy Days

"I LOVE YOU..." was written on it.

Through the galaxy, through the universe.

Just when you've almost forgotten that there's always evil in the world, he comes along and says...

Dead Man Days

Dead Man Days

Dead Man Days

Her heart is swaying and moving, and that's where the sorrow must be born.

Accelerating Galaxy Days

"I LOVE YOU..." was written on the rocket

Through the galaxy

And take the universe with you

Take the universe

Take the universe

Get the universe
ピストル・ディスコ / pistol disco

Hollywood on fire

Mirror balls shattering

I'm getting fucked somewhere

Heaven is a sequin

It's the source of rainbows

with alcatenol in it

at midnight when the silver rain is falling 

The romance that blew fire

Pomade trumpets blowing

A sparkling flash of light

Pistol disco in a frenzy

I thought I was jumping in a Lincoln full of holes

sticking glass panes shattered and sequins

smashed on all four corners

It's as if I'd left it behind

A courier's treasure

car radio

A black-lit romance

I cried my heart out

Will you take me to that place

Pistol Disco

Hollywood on Fire

Shattering Mirror Balls

I'm getting fucked somewhere

Heaven is a sequin

It's the source of a rainbow

with alcatenol in it

at midnight when the silver rain is falling

The romance that blew fire

Pomade trumpet blows

flashes of glittering light, a wild pistol disco.
赤毛のケリー / Long red hair Kelly

I learned the fate of the forest burned in a city made of buffalo horns.

Long red hair Kelly.

A chipped brooch with rusted needles that read "Stone from the Moon".

where the sun and the road meld together and the frozen sea stretches out beyond

She paints the fish that live there

seahorses, seals scream

Long red hair Kelly.

She paints the fish that live at the bottom

Seahorses, seals scream

Kelly's red hair floats in the west wind

Makeup on the lake, moonstone on the moon

a blanket of lamb is tucked into a car with no blinkers

that girl paints snow falling in the desert

shimmering oasis ice

Long red hair Kelly.

She paints snow falling in the desert

Oasis Ice, shimmering and shimmering
キャンディ・ハウス / Candy house

Swallow one of these in one gulp

I fiddle with a plate of strawberry jam

I can't stop laughing in the deserted kitchen

what should I say in such a situation?

I want to be told in a pained way

"Go back, Candy house"

I wonder how much spray I've emptied

Orange on the balcony in the sun

I'll throw a plant over there that's crying

What should I say at a time like this?

I want to be told in pain

"Go back, Candy house"

I'm laying them out like a precious pair of boots with light blue candies stuck to the bottom of them

Go on with your smooth story

Like a sheep napping in the meadow

I don't know what to say at times like this

What do I want to be told at such times?

I'd like to ask it out of bitterness

Go back, Candy house
ハイ!チャイナ! / Hi! China!

ターキー / Turkey

Bison Pattern Gondola Reggae

In the eye of the swirling air currents

I've got a flightless turkey tongue

To the rhythm of a slap shot 

Love and peace are two different things

Red velvet

A coffin of iron

Turkey and a knife

There ain't no place in the universe, man.

Blue sparks from transistors

Earth as Seen from a Satellite

Aloha for the Spade Monkey

Real primary colors all over the place

Love and peace are two different things

Burn this world to the ground

Turkey and a knife

Bone in, but the heart's still there

Happy Porn Star

I Love You

No more black film screenings

I got a turkey that won't squeal I got a tongue that won't squeal

Drinking green beer

Love and peace are two different things

 Kick drum is a melody for the heart

A knife in the turkey

There ain't no place in the universe

There ain't no place in the universe

When you're bones, the heart's still there 

There ain't no place in the universe 

Love and peace are two different things
