Shonen Knife (Seven Japanese Bands in Seven Days)

Shonen Knife have been Indie darlings since the 1980's, so they don't need an introduction from me. Why do I suggest Pretty Little Baka Guy out of all the albums available? Short answer: "Public Bath." Long answer: What's not to like about a group that celebrates the joys of bathing at the local sento with such basic lyrics as "I'm looking forward to eat ice cream after my bath time." Simple pleasures indeed.

Here's a video from their 2010 release Free Time. Shonen Knife may only have one original member, but they're still going strong and look like they're having a great time based on the concert footage I've seen.
