    BrenGun got a reaction from bada9412 in ADAMS - Akisame   
    Finally after a while we hear finally something from ADAMS again. Well their last album was also released this year around their European tour. However didn't like the album. Somehow it just sounded boring to me. So yes I was happy to hear the news about the new single "Akisame". Because ADAMS is the best in releasing singles!

    Akisame means something like "Autumn Rain" or maybe "Rainy Autumn"?

    The song Akisame start with ADAM singing and it has a happy tune. It reminds me a lot of "ONE AND ONLY" it doesn't remind me of "boku no sei" or "seseragi" at all. Even if the song has a "happy tune" it doesn't tell you a happy story, the story is about broken love. That you have loved someone so deeply that even RAIN cannot help you to get rid of the pain. It continues to tell the story where it stopped at Seseragi. The melody is a mix of typical pop and a bit of rock elements, it also reminds me to some older anime music tracks. it has guitar elements but also keyboard aka computer made melodies inside. which made this song not really a sad song. ADAMS voice is good as always but he could make this song even more sad with singing with real broken love feelings. However because of singing this way it makes me feel that he simply sings happy to get rid of those sad feelings. But I don't get the image of a rainy dark Autumn day when I listen to this song, because this song really make you feel to go out dancing. (dancing in the rain maybe?) After all this song is really enjoying and that makes this song good. I really like it.

    NUDE start with a church clock. Which remembers me actually of a church clock sound if someone has died. (lol) But it's not a depressive lyric at all...(hahaha) Somehow because of this clock it let me feel as it is a sad love song too. But after reading the lyric the ringing bell reminds me of a xxx movie. The first xxx movie. Who also had such ringing bell at the end of the movie... yes I'm talking about "Deep Throat" xxx movie. (lol) The lyrics of this song doesn't make that much sense. The lyric of this song isn't that important. The lyric is really filled with sexual thinking. A good song to play when you are with your lover in bed doing xxx things. The melody let you also think of nude things... eh nude? naughty nude things. It's a melody which you can easy enjoy.


    Both melodies are actually typical catchy pop songs. It aren't really rock songs but they have also a little taste of rock. In the next works of ADAMS I surly gonna miss the sound of the guitar since they totally going industrial in their new works. But I guess the pop industrial way?! so more the electronic way... but industrial is also electronic.
    There wont be any ADAMS fan who won't like this single. It's impossible to not like this. However I really think that it is really important to read the "translations" of both songs. because it makes it more easy to feel the music more deeply and to understand the songs better.

    However I still got one tip for ADAMS. put more feelings inside the vocal. ADAM is a great vocalist but yet I cannot clearly hear if he sings a sad, sexual or happy song without reading the lyric.
    And I also wonder how a pure dark rocking ADAMS would sound like. (lol)

    My rating for this single.
    MELODY: simply because you like it at the first play
    FEELING: because while listen to it you won't understand the real content of the lyrics.
    LYRICS:
    Akisame perfect written lyric. really beautiful.
    NUDE could be written more deeply, words are simply way to random and sentences simply doesn't make that much sense.
    OVER ALL: Its a nice single which you won't regret buying.

    I'm not so good in writing reviews.
    But today I gonna give it a try for this album!
     
    Album released at August 13th!
     
    I already did hear a few of the songs at their LIVE and they truly blew me away, so amazing cool music. but then you still need to wait how it will sound on a CD.
    So today, I finally received my CD in my mailbox.
     
    dieS is a more dark image visual kei band. No happy unreal fun shit. It's music truly pure from the heart. Music which is made with real fun and feeling.
    Once again dieS did it again and they delivered a way more perfect ALBUM.
    You can hear the guitar influences of Calmando Qual TAK a lot. He didn't recored all songs which are on this album only [track, 2,3,6,8&9]. But you can clearly hear that his ideas are inside this album too.
     
    This album has the perfect heaviness of rock music need to have. Everything fits in every song.
    Vocal is really beautiful and fits the music so perfectly.
    No idiotic scream or something you have a lot now in visual kei music. 
    It's really easy to let the music inside your head that that you kinda fly dream inside the music.
     
     
    TRACKLIST & RAITING
    01 the night | A nice song for a first song of an album. But still it lacks something a bit. a 2min version would maybe have fit better.
    02 SA・VA・GE-night slave- | Lovely song to play all night!
    03 innocent taboo | Live version is way more fun, it's not really a CD song, I guess. at least not for me.
    04 mirror | to much sameness with innocent taboo.
    05 VICTIM | lovely Engrish! It has a nice beat
    06 blind dance | a beautiful rock ballad!
    07 dry | Also a more slow song. really beautiful. To bad that Tak didn't join this song. otherwise it would been more perfect.
    08 smell | more heavy song in between.
    09 パブリックセックス | First part of this song is... nyaaaaa... but it gets more fun and better.
    10 太陽 | Also slowly song, so much perfectness. However they should have asked Tak to join this song recording.  
     
    END RAITING

    Even if the individual songs aren't always that great (track, 3,4,5), yet to play them all in this order it makes them fun and nicely to listen too, so I won't skip any of them!! 
    Also the more slow songs are the best for dieS, Then "Dai's" voice is also so beautiful.
     
     
    You won't regret spening 2500yen for this album (^o^)/

    BrenGun reacted to Zeus in Visual kei is dead! (at least on youtube)   
    Here's a question for you: why film a promotional video if you aren't using it to promote music?
    The answer is, there is none! To expect people to buy the promotional video to see it defeats the purpose of it's design, which is to promote your music. You aren't supposed to be able to directly make money off of the PV. The money you put into the video either comes out of your budget for the album or is something you recoup when you make sales. It's called the cost of doing business. Sometimes it's necessary to spend money to make more money. If you do make money off of the PV, that's just a bonus.
    That's why visual kei bands seem to run into so many monetary issues. They spend a lot of money up front to get their costumes, photo shoots, albums recorded, etc. and then expect fans to pay up front for everything. Here, pay up front for this ticket to get this live distributed song which didn't cost us a fraction of the cost we're charging you to get it! Here, pay for this promotional video so you can see the song that we're going to make you buy twice so you can get all of the music. Also, buy both editions and get some meaningless poster bonus too! But you have to buy them from Like An Edison only to get the deal! Like shit, I get that you need to recoup your losses but there are better ways to do it. I'll name a few below.
    Why don't Japanese visual kei bands run an official YouTube channel where they can place all of their PV's (or hell, all of their music if they wanted), and some live performances and just make you sit through an ad first? That's extra money that doesn't cost them too much work to get. Why don't really indies independent Japanese visual kei bands put their releases on Bandcamp or iTunes and set a minimum price? There are lots of ways they can cut out the middleman and save themselves some serious cash, but they don't.
    But yet it's expected that we should just shell out $40 for the music? It's 2014 music doesn't work that way anymore bb.
