    blacktooth got a reaction from nullmoon in #116: The Insulated World by Dir en grey   
    I agree fully. I like the song, but it's clear that it didn't become a long song organically. I wouldn't be surprised if Vinushka was even longer while being composed and cut down to the final length, because it feels very natural and isn't a chore to listen to. It does not feel like a ten minute song, but rather a natural composition that takes you on a journey.
    Zetsuentai, on the other hand, just drags on. Which is a shame because it has some very strong points, like the motif and the chorus. Since they wrote it according to the long song blueprint, several of the heavy passages feel shoehorned in without a proper transition. "Oh, here's a heavy part again". Though with the disjointed nature, it probably wouldn't be too hard to excise the filler parts. I would be happy if a demo version surfaced, a la the superior Diabolos.

    just to prevent ppl from running with "last time", what he wrote was "I'm thinking there will be a lot of songs that we won't play anymore once this [tour] ends"

    I definitely "feel" the furi when listening to certain songs. Although, I don't have as much experience with lives in Japan as some people, I think it's kind of intuitive once you've been to a few.

    Napalm Death! Some really old pictures. I think they were 12 years old on the picture where they're holding the punk zines. Cool shit.

    I have a feeling the first half songs will sound better on stage. Their live sound engineer is really good, so hopefully it won't sound like a compressed wall of noise. I am interested to see which songs they throw in the mix, because TIW needs some room to breathe, especially in a sweaty, dark venue.

    I believe it’s the MDR cd900st, they have a red tag on them. I’ll double check later today.
     
    Coincidentally the GazettE use the same headphones. I found out the specific model because Ruki posted a pic on Instagram and I did some basic consumer research on them when trying to find a pair of studio headphones for myself. 
     
    I chose Sennheiser’s lol

    I am gonna give it 4 out of 5 pineapples. The redone tracks feels so redundant to me. They didn't really ruin it but they didn't actually amped it up either. 4 for replayable value. I'd listen to it exclusively for this next few weeks if only I don't listen to Kero Kero Bonito in the same time.
