The Music

Well, you can't have an anime about a band without also having a lot of music to go with it! For Kaikan Phrase, they created a real life version of the band Λucifer to sing and promote the songs used in the anime! The songs sung by the real life Λucifer were released on Λucifer CDs (like something you would buy if you were a fan of the group in the anime) while the Kaikan Phrase Original Soundtracks contain only BGM. Because the live-action band is a spin-off of the manga and anime, I will be including CDs from them here, even if the music did not actually appear in the anime. I figure by default, everything from Λucifer is related to the series somehow. Listed below are all of the CDs I know of that are associated with Kaikan Phrase. Soon I will add a section all about the live-action band :)

I have realaudio files of many Kaikan Phrase songs linked below! Sorry, I am not going to link to any MP3s, I want to encourage people to buy the CDs! :)


Kaikan Phrase: Λucifer
Catalog #: PCOX-1097 (drama cd)
This is a combination of drama and music CD that was released before the anime was made. It's based on the manga, and has a different voice cast than the anime. It contains 4 music tracks and 4 drama tracks. So far the voices I have identified are: Koyasu Takehito as Sakuya, Midorikawa Hikaru as Atsuro, and Miki Shinichirou as Towa. I am still working on identifying the other voices. All the vocals are sung by Koyasu Takehito.
