[boinsie]

Yeah, here's the A-side, Otome Sensou

They've had proper PVs for the B-sides since their second major single (they're at their ~8th right now, but two of those didn't have B-sides, so).

Hell, the PV that so many people make a huge deal out of with the ice creams was actually a PV for the C-side (or whatever) to MIRAI BOWL.

does American music artists release Music Videos for their single's b-sides?

[DARC1993]

i dont think they have b-sides.. the system is different here.
Momoclo are so weird... i cant do it lol..

[boinsie]

I think for the most part American artists don't release physical singles. They'll release one new song maybe a month or so previous to releasing a new album as promo for their album's release, and then once the album has been out for a little bit they'll choose several other songs from that album to release as "singles" (ie, songs that get music videos and promotion) to further promote the album.
Actual physical singles are released from time to time, but the "B-sides" on those copies are generally remixes of the title track. They mostly seem to be for the club scene, or somesuch.

HOWEVER when an American artists releases music in Japan, they generally do release singles, often with B-sides that they've never released domestically.

Physical singles exist, although you wouldn't really see them in stores. Like with Arcade Fire, you'd never see these vinyls and singles in stores.

Sometimes the b-sides can be new tracks that never really get played or performed and remain as obscure tracks. The single that's released before the actual album could also have the b-side that's another song on the album. Or they can be radio edits/full versions, demo versions, etc. It varies, really.

Taking the CrobatZ talk from the One Two Three topic:

It's like they're always on Yuke Yuke Monkey Dance mode </Momokuro>

I can't talk for Starra, but since her opinion is similar to mine the reasons why we stopped liking it might also be the same and ^ this is for me reason. Instead of making good songs they reproduce the same gimmick songs that has gotten them noticed. It has become boring to see and hear the same kind of song over and over again. It would be good if they did another song that stands out because of the song and not because of the Momoiro Clover act. A song like One・Two・Three for example.

I'm guessing you're talking about a more serious song, since CrobatZ singles are actually not similar sounding at all. They just are all crazy
