Official merch. So, yeah, maybe it will help you somehow.

..Eh. Kinda started loving Guuzou moratorium (love rhythm and that Ariana part at the end), but besides that nothing changed. Kimi wa mukidashi is the best song for me still, Tada Mada Watashi sounds nostalgic (and reminds me russian pop-songs like Ruki Vverh) and ballads are pretty decent. But besides that I'm mostly indifferent, especially to 6 and 8 song. Also, Hyouhaku flavour's ending is just insulting (sounds like someone slammed Takumi's face against piano). EDIT. And yeah. Where is Rongai.

Well, it's either Vinushka, or Beelzebub. Or STU with eight choruses.

You forgot Average Psycho 3 (totally uncensored ver.)

Totally yes. It's like they wrote songs for Arche using only one blueprint.

He wasn't relying too much on falsettos at that time? Like, he started overusing them either since DSS, or Rinkaku. And then almost every second/third song has him sing high notes, which sounds terible in live. Also, during 2005-2006 he had other problem. Skipping a lot of words to catch some breath or just to scream his lungs out (you can notice it in post WTD single b-sides). Also also, wanted to throw another stone at Arche. Overabundance of solos. In some cases songs win from it (Uroko, Kaishun), but usually it seems like a padding (and this album is already 16/18 songs long, c'mon). And they even added solo for Kukoku no Kyoon when it was released as an Utafumi b-side! Like, TIW is more balanced with solos (like, there is a 7sec something in Rubbish Heap (starts at 1:55) and only in Aka we receive first their usual solo).

Yeah They wanted a cool name on the merch slippers.

Well, it felt like this album was rushed. But, tbh, TIW is much more fun and live-friendly than overcramped Arche (which, nevertheless, still had good and fun songs) or ESPECIALLY DSS. Methinks (and, probably, not only me) that this album will be better to listen when they'll release full-format DVD for it.

I'll probably be an uncultured swine, but why do you like Magayasou?

So, yeah. US tour this December.

You forgot Shin Sekai tour, which translates to god help me New World?

Their early heavy stuff is usually cringy or strange (Rasetsukoku comes to mind, which only wins from being remade). Remakes like Tsumi to Kisei and Hydra are just new songs, tbh. It's difficult to compare them to their older counterpart. Now about The Final/Kasumi stuff. I prefer new Kasumi because it sounds softer and has a nice solo. But, I like old version of The Final because of a fuller sound (dunno how to explain it). So, it's usually hit or miss. New Wake is easier to digest. Undecided shouldn't be categorized as a remake - it's just an acoustic version (like Ruten no Tou).

Disband, finally?

You know, it can be both...

Well... I'm all down for Aka.

Shin Sekai Insulated World And now World of Mercy. ... So, when we'll have full-blown world tour?

He also wrote S, The Domestic Fucker Family and Hades

I'm probably talking nonsense, but I clearly hear digitized frog's croaking in last song. And that's not a very good usage of electronics.

Well, what can I do. I'll try to listen it more, but as for now, Adoratio felt more cohesive and impacting than Infinitum.

Worst release after Immortalis, tbh. Liked 3 songs (7, 9, 11). Others were too weird or, as Blacktooth said, directionless. First album half just melts into strange and boring mess.
