I was at an AKFG fansite (www.akfgfan.com) and I saw that they have started a petition to Tofu Records, asking for AKFG albums to be released in the states! The author of the petition says why it is worth a try.

I have already signed it! If you like this band too, go sign it! (Even if you are not in the USA please help us out!)

cool... i'd like to see AKFG albums in shops here Wink
(of course you can already buy all of their stuff on www.YesAsia.com... but a shop is way better)

Yeah I love AKFG too!! But I'm wondering why they wouldn't let shops here sell them in the 1st place?

i don't think that's the case. if you buy it now, as an import, you have to pay like 30 bucks for a cd. if tofu records releases them, they will cost about half as much, since the regular price in the US for a cd is about 15 dollars or so.

yesasia has the chinese (or something) releases for about $18, but the 2 newest albums are $29.75 for the japanese releases. the singles cost less, yeah, but there's only a few songs on them. and houkai amplifier costs less too, but i think that's because it has only 6 songs. their first dvd doesn't have a bad price, but that's when i look at the euro price. it seems expensive in dollars lol i don't know why.

thats so true... btw: Sony owns the souls...uh... i mean the distribution rights to almost all the popular japanese acts... so I would expect if they thought AKFG could be profitable in the US they'd use their US label...

Oh, thats right, "Tofu Records" is a Sony label... silly me... If you watch popjapan.tv (Sony's US-based MTV style countdown that plays on the International Channel... uh, I mean AZN TV) they have featured AKFG a number of times...

so its likely that they'll at least port "sol-fa"... I havn't seen that much of the US-version of FMA but if they are using ALL the original japanese openings it would be a good move to co-encide the albums release with the use of "rewrite" in the anime. like they did with le'arc'n ciel and their song "ready steady go"... though if I remember correctly... wan't Porno Graphiti's "Melissa" the first openning to FMA?...

#(*&@$(& funimation... well at least it wasn't a crapy rap intro (one piece) =P....
