Im sure im not the only perfume fan here....

They're awesome! Ever since Game I've become a huge fan. Especially since I'm a sucker for electro pop. I've been meaning to download their latest album. I'm hoping it's as awesome as their last.

Flawless, perfect, bionic, amazing girls.
I can't believe there wasn't a topic for them.
I hope they release a new album soon! Their latest singles were awesome.

Artist: MEJIBRAY Single: 盈虧 1. 盈虧 2. 人間 3. 蜈蚣
Rating: | It's more pleasant than open face surgery at least.
 
I'm legitimately disturbed by how far MEJIBRAY have fallen.

I never expected much from them, but this is yet another step down from Theatrical Blue Black, and I wonder how this band keeps fans and continues their activities. For one, the singing is enough to make anyone run for the hills. The goat bleating is such a chore to listen to, and if it's not that it's either strained falsetto or some weird demented frog guttural yoga hums. Tsuzuku's inability to sing trivializes the skills of the rest of the band to a large extent. Their unorthodox vocalist may have worked for them at one point, but that time has long since passed. Tsuzuku needs to either improve his delivery on all fronts or cede his position to someone who can actually sing, because "sounding unique" is not a good enough excuse to hide the singing inability.

盈虧 is the soundtrack that plays on loop in the room where people go to watch paint dry. The excerpt at the beginning is stupid enough, but then it feeds into this aimless and bland melody that fails at being dark and moody. The repetitive strumming does not build up a convincing enough atmosphere, and that chorus is a train wreck of massive proportions. It's the most unengaging single I've ever heard in my life and it provides nothing to hook the listener in. The band isn't compensating for Tsuzuku's shortcomings by producing catchy music, and they're definitely not playing to his strengths because he sounds out of place, so I'm not understanding how this is supposed to work. The accompanying tracks are only marginally better, but still pretty awful. 人間 is a power ballad with an awkward metalcore section in the middle. It's a bad choice to follow one slow, boring song with a gimmick that they lack the tools to execute. 蜈蚣 is the banger that probably works better live than in studio that doesn't get my blood rushing the way a good core song should. For all it's aggression, it feels just as stagnant as the first two songs. If they fail to be convincing with their mother genre, I don't see much hope for this band.

As MEJIBRAY completes their transition from boring to disappointing, I struggle to find any reason why this band should remain relevant. It's frustrating how inconsistent they are. Their last album was met with a lot of unexpected praise, but whatever inspired them then didn't now. This is beyond disappointing; this is almost insultingly bad, and when I remind myself that they pumped this crap out in three different editions my stomach churns. There are claims that MEJIBRAY have potential, but much like Tsuzuku's singing ability I hear none of it. Unharnessed potential is wasted potential and even if the members themselves are individually talented, their music does not reflect on their abilities. In all good faith, I could not recommend this single to anybody. This is by far one of their worst releases in a long time. Even if you're a diehard MEJIBRAY fan, I recommend waiting for the next single.

If you're that brave trooper who actually bought this single, ask for your money back.

Artist: ユナイト (UNiTE.) Single: マーブル (marble) 1. マーブル (marble) 2. ステアーズ ステアーズ(stairs stairs) [Type S limited edition] 2. 汚染 (osen) [regular edition] 3. WONDER f∞l PEOPLE [regular edition]
Rating: | Another solid single to whet your appetite before the summer album

 
マーブル (marble) is the 7th single from your favorite VK experimenters in excessive, flowing fabric, UNiTE. Sana, the band’s fresh meat drummer, makes his compositional debut, penning both the title track and one of the b-sides. This is all just in time for the band’s 4th anniversary on March 29th!

So, how does Sana stack up? Well, he definitely sounds like he belongs! In fact, I wouldn't have a hard time believing that guitarist Shiina Mio had actually written “marble.” If there’s one difference, it’s that Sana blends the heaviness and signature twinkly pop-rock more seamlessly than Mio tends to do (who often deliberately writes songs in a softer or heavier style). Yui's vocals are as agile as ever, effortlessly gliding through gentle verses and powerful choruses. Meanwhile, chirpy guitar chords in the beginning of the verse later morph into the layered guitar wankery we’ve come to love from Mio and LiN. The background arrangements alternate between a balanced mix of piano, airy synths, and a distorted “wub-wub” here and there. All in all, a pretty damn good first effort!
“ステアーズ ステアーズ(stairs stairs)” is the second track from Sana. From the laid-back beachy sound, I initially thought it was by guitarist LiN, channeling his former band, LeMpicka?. The beat makes it like a toned down version of “アンテリナム(antirrhinum)” from their third album. The song has an enjoyable melody and a nice little guitar solo. Yui maintains his sweet vocals for the majority of the track, but occasionally hits some funky notes – another usual trademark of LiN compositions. While this is a pleasant little ditty, Sana doesn’t touch on much that LiN hasn’t done before.

Next up, we have Mio’s “汚染 (osen).” For a title meaning “contamination,” it might seem strange that the song begins with a music box lullaby. This soothing tune quickly disintegrates into atonal disarray, making way for some sinister chiptune bloops. A short dose of chuggy, albeit generic riffs, get a lot more creative around the :43 mark, before leading into the first verse. The best thing about this track is that melody was not sacrificed in the heaviness. Yui delivers an impressive, heartfelt performance, particularly in the final, extended chorus. The riffs throughout sound full-bodied, so it all makes for a satisfying listen. My main complaint is that the drums during the bridge sound a bit weak. While I don’t think this song reaches the top-tier likes of "失望エミュレイター (shitsubou emulator)” or “退廃レトリック (taihai rhetoric)," it’s one of their better “heavy” songs.

“WONDER f∞l PEOPLE” opens with a pumping, in-your-face beat, as Yui talk-raps his way through some bizarre Engrish (“POWER K LOOKS”) and does a roll call of the band members. I was preparing myself for a Kameleo-esque song where they all sing along. Thirty seconds in, the chorus sneaks up on you and it’s clean, poppy, and ecstatic. The whimsical synths give it a shibuya-kei flair. LiN’s lyrics continue to graces us with phrases like “YA SMELL ME? LACK OF ABILITY!” After the second chorus, the song pumps the brakes and gives a short taste of bossa nova relaxation, before quickly returning to the song’s almost gratingly hyper form. Like LiN’s other goofball tracks (“Cocky-discuS”), this might take 2 or 3 listens, before the humorous style sinks in. Nonetheless, I seem to be in the minority of MH’s UNiTE.-posse, because this is my least favorite on the single. It needed at least one more element (some kind of bridge or outro, for instance) to be more balanced. As it stands, it’s the single’s shortest track, but also the most repetitive.

Sana's joining the band last year has somehow ushered in higher production values (look at that shiny PV!) and generally more mature songwriting; while I still think the band sometimes plays it too safe in their “heavier” compositions (I’m looking at you “marble” and “osen” breakdowns), there is always enough variety on their releases to keep you interested. None of the four songs here sound remotely alike! I look forward to hearing Sana’s songwriting develop into his own, discernible style. Lucky for us, their 4th album UNiVERSE comes out this summer, so we don’t have long to wait for him to show us what else he’s got!

What did you think of the single?

Support the band!

SADIE, since COLD BLOOD has been on a nonstop trail of hit or miss. Its either their music is too blatantly Dir en grey influenced or lifeless and repetitive. I was one of the many few who enjoyed GANGSTA for what it was  because it was a release that i felt strayed away from those cancerous attributes. With the announcement of their hiatus, they've dropped VOYAGE. I went in skeptical because often time when SADIE releases something that I deem listenable, they follow up with something terrible....This was NOT The case here. Lemme break it down.
 
Voyage: Starts off with an intro that gives off a farewell vibe and throughout the entirety of the song, this vibe is present even when there's the breakdown that meshes extremely well and does not take away from the feel. Mao's vocals for some reason is just amazing. I'll even dare to say this is the best he's sounded. Same can be said for the other members as well, especially Tsurugi and Mizuki who's guitar work shines. They clearly pulled no punches. AND GOT DAMN, My nigga....THAT SOLO. Anyways....The way the track fades out with Mao singing "la la la la" is so fitting....like, i wouldn't be surprised if they ended their final show with this song and the fans sang along while bawling their eyes out. Simply amazing.
 
10/10
 
Call of Pain: When this started, i thought it would be another filler B-side song along the lines of Setugekka but boy was i wrong. If anything this is a better, more thought out and creative version of those songs. To me It carries on the same Farewell vibe as Voyage but just in a different format but its still well done. I tend to often ignore SADIE b-sides but this is one where I will actually go back and listen to. Well done! 8.10
 
End Of The World: DAWG, THIS JUST HITS YOU IN THE FACE with that RAW SADIE goodness. Its heavy but it also does a great job at making you feel like the the title of the song. I could picture this playing as a soundtrack to some apocalypse type move. ALSO that breakdown......I have no words. Just my favorite reaction:  I really can't say much more about this track. Its just killer. EASILY My favorite song out of the whole release. They saved the best for last, which is brilliant.
 
20/10
 
Overall, SADIE's VOYAGE is one of the best send offs before a hiatus, i've ever heard. From start to finish this single oozes of pure, fresh originality and is hella rockin. THIS is the SADIE that i missed since COLD BLOOD. For anyone who bad talked the band, VOYAGE is them making a statement with their middle fingers raised high. I wish them the absolute best and hope they come back stronger with a clear direction for their music (for once). Best release of 2015 so far. I can already tell I'm gonna be listening to this more than my other current fav releases this year. 

fiiinished because -> no motivation to continue lol
 

 
 
 

Midnight drawing from a few days ago because I could hardly wait for MIMIC but the wait was worth it.
 
 
 

Well i just finished listening to the last single.... I'm in tears its so beautiful 

Voyage
Call the pain
End of the world
It wouldn't be a Sadie release without embarrassing Engrish, would it?

Among counting rhymes covered in smoke
I was looking for an answer
Where should I go?
 
The rope sways and people applaud
Is this the answer? I shout at the sun that bears down upon me
Black sheep, they jeer, a stage of intoxication where they perform without concealing their identity
 
A slanting ceiling and counting rhymes
Velka and Strelka
I came here
 
The dancing clown reflected in the mirror
Sings to engrave your tears upon his face
 
The apple hung upon me falls
 
I gazed at the moon with the thickening fog
To make sure you were breathing
Don’t cry any more, let your sadness become the heavy rain
I’ll be your umbrella
 
When I stare into the mirror
The dancing clown wishes he could take your tears away into the glass
When the sky clears without my noticing
I’ll be together again with you

MORPHINE#1
 
My phone rings in the middle of the night
I wait a little on purpose
I hide my intention to wait
And pretend I’m tired
 
You’re utterly sneaky
You understand right?
How I always long for you
I close my eyes
 
‘Where are you now? What are you doing?’
‘I’m on my own’
‘I want to see you right now’
‘I’ll be right there after I’ve showered and changed my clothes’
 
I understand but what I can’t get rid of is
The fact that I love you
The bruises and warmth you leave in my body
I’m alone                You give a sly smile
 
But believes want to kill.
I want to personal belongings.
Why? It does not become
My thing why?
It is sad that you are loved.
 
(NB. My imagination is killing me.
I want to make you mine.
Why will you not be mine?
It’s pathetic that I love you.)
 
‘I’m sorry, I’m just so lonely’
‘It can’t be helped’
‘I want to see you all the time’
‘I’m always here, just look’
 
I understand but what I can’t get rid of is
Despite it all I still love you
The bruises and warmth you leave in my body
 
Our entwining bodies, the smell of morphine
Look at me just this time
As you leave the room
You leave me alone             And give a sly smile

Awesome introduction! Lovely to have you, I hope you enjoy your time here on MH. Lovely set of favourites too, and I love how you put down others you plan to look into. My favourite band (well, one of the many ones I love but this one takes the cake for me) is Plastic Tree (also Lycaon and AvelCain!) so I do encourage you give them a go! Look out for more links and such in the 'Site Announcements of Awesome' at the top and check out the chat next to the 'release list' too. Also, your English is amazing, no worries. If you have any questions or concerns, send a PM to the users with a red or blue name. See you around!

So I never made an introduction thread because I'm an awkward turtle and don't know what to say in these things. My name is Kelly, I like Japanese rock music, from indie pop rock to hardcore punk. MUCC are my faves though. You can check my last.fm (link in sig) to see what other artists we might have in common and feel free to friend me there!
 
I'm a mod here and it's not hard to stay on my good side as long as you don't be a dick. Easy, right? I know. Super easy. ;D
 
Also #yoloswag420mejiblazeit #imverypencil #onlygacktcanjudgeme
 
I shall leave you with these words of wisdom:
 

 
 
okbye

Hello everyone~ (^-^)/
ettooo~ actually I signed up a few months ago but I was a little busy, so I totally forgot to post on this forum … but THX to senpai, I’m back !! ( I wonder if senpai’s reading this~ fufu~ ๑>ᴗ<๑ )
 
So~ let’s get straight to the point :
My name is Sara. I'm a huge fan of Japanese pop culture, especially Japanese music. I live in a country so far, far away … where you haven’t even heard of~ ^.^
 
Some little history:
 
I fell in love with J-music when I was very very young ( maybe 4 year old ) … I used to memorize Anime songs when I was in elementary school ~ haha !! ( probably I’m one of the pioneers in my country !! XD )
But I have to say  I officially became a J-fan like 5 years ago. I’ve tried different genres of J-music but I like Japanese rock and techno-pop the most.
2-3 years ago, I learned about Visual-Kei . thx to the GazettE, I didn't like it at first but thx to Sadie, I was rescued and brought back to it again, so I’m really obsessed with VK these days. As you see, I’m still new to VK, so plz be kind to me~ >/////<
 
So what brought me here, to MH ? 
 
precious REVIEWS !! ♥
I ran into some reviews on my fav band’s album and I was impressed how everyone called it GARBAGE, etc. so~ I thought “ this site is AWESOME~ I need to sign up !! yay~ “ (｡ >艸<)
just kidding, but honestly, I really enjoy reading reviews here bcuz everyone’s so knowledgeable and I think it’s such a nice thing to be honest with your feelings about a band’s release instead of hiding them just bcuz you’re their fan.
 
OK, now, some little stuff, just to know XD :
 
1.I LOVE discovering new bands and I’m always open to recommendations. So don’t hesitate to show me your fav bands !! ^.^
 
2.I’m not a native speaker, so … SAURRY MAI ENGRISH BAD~ >.<
 
3.Caution! : I have allergy to RUKI, so plz be careful, especially if you’re a Ruki-gya~ XD
 
Looking forward to meeting you all and learning from you~ Yoroshiku onegaiishimasu~ osewa ni narimasu !! (✿◠‿◠)
 
I leave you with a list of my fav artists.

Hi, everyone ~ thank you for the warm welcome.
Sorry for my long introduction. I’m thankful you took your time reading it~ ♥
 
 
Hi !! Thank you~ oh, hontou ?   arigatou~ well, I live in Iran. ^^
Hahaha~ no actually that’s not what I mean … sorry, I just wanted to say I didn’t like VK at first. It’s just that my first impression of VK was not good … y’know, at first I thought they looked weird and I wasn’t used to growls and better to say, heavy music , but then I realized I was missing out~
Haha~ nothing really !! I don’t hate gazette ~ actually I like some of their songs and I like all the members . So don’t worry … I was kidding~ ( hehe, Long story !!! Ruki is my dear old enemy ~ hahaha~ I’ll tell you the reason later if you’re curious~)
 
Oh~ thank you for the recommendation … I heard about Megamasso before. I’ll definitely check them out !!
 
 
Thank you~ aww, AMAZING !! I’m glad you think so~   Arigatou . yoroshiku onegaiishimasu~ ♥
 
 
Hi thank you~
oh, I know !! you’re right !! I’m so sorry … I never intended to say I hated the gazette and as I said before, I love VK.
I really respect all the bands, even if I don’t like them and I also respect the fans and their opinions  … so~ I don’t think it’s necessary to avoid them.
Anyway, I apologize for the misunderstanding~ I know I could have a better choice of words cuz "hate" is a little intense … I just wanted to say "I didn’t like VK at first."
So~ sumimasen~ I’ll edit my post !! thank you~
 
 
Aww~ thank you !! \(^-^)/

Welcome to the forum! Enjoy!

Hello and welcome to MH! Nice introduction, but where is your faraway country? Wow so you hated the entire movement only because of one band? What do you have against the GazettE? I'm really curious now to hear your reasons (and the allergy to Ruki came because of what?) xD
You really shoud give a try to megamasso too!!
See ya then!
