  1. Lately I've been getting into 蜉蝣 (Kagerou).

    About a month ago I tried out their first album (self-titled) two different times, and was less impressed by it each time; it was quite difficult to get into. But I didn't give up on them. I decided to check out some of their other stuff. At first I thought they'd be a "singles band," so I got all their singles and the ones they released before their self-titled album were pretty good with some strong moments. I then decided to download all their other full-length albums (落首、愚弄色、黒旗), and they are much better than the first one, and more engaging than the singles.

    TL;DR, 落首, 愚弄色, and 黒旗 are very solid (s/t is tricky), pre-debut album singles are worth checking out, post-debut album singles are for die-hard fans only.


  2. im 1 song into the diaura best album and MY EDGES ARE SNATCHED

    edit: on track 4 and THIS IS HOW EVERY BEST ALBUM SHOULD BE. these remakes are religious

    It would have been better if:

    - It had rarez (melt, cult, Judgement demo, 自壊 prototype)

    - They didn't remake the GENESIS tracks; the originals were better (they murdered 禁示録)

    Other than that, all the re-recordings are fantastic!

    Also, I don't get why SIRIUS is the only non-rerecorded track to get a remix (not that it isn't an amazing mix, the guitars are more present).

    I'll talk more about the comp later, perhaps even do a review.


  3. All extremely rare, but still worth a shot...

    AvelCain - ARROW OF THE LIGHT

    AvelCain - 自責の筵 (5th press only)

    アヲイ - 雨のち痛み

    アヲイ - あの子

    DIAURA - Beautiful Creature (first press only)

    DIAURA - melt (I'm not paying $60 for it, I'm not even paying $50)

    R指定 - 玉砕メランコリィ

    SUICIDE ALI - 行商人の絵画 (demo CD)

    umbrella - Powdery snow

    umbrella - 永久地図 (actual legit copy)

    If you feel like selling any of these, send me a PM. And please do NOT reply to this thread saying that you sent me a PM. I get notifications for PMs by e-mail. :)

    Updated my list with more shit that's nearly impossible to find


  4. God-dayum, that SKP re-rec/demo is killer! When it comes to re-recordings, I usually prefer the Para:noir versions, but this blows the first version far out of the water.


  5. A RarezHut box has arrived!

    3UKX9SG.jpg

    2 Plastic Tree flyers (bonus freebies, nice!)

    heidi. - 翼 (通常盤) (帯無)

    DuelJewel - VISIONS (limited edition?)

    lynch. - enemy (limited edition) (帯無)

    Jin-Machine - さよならアキラレモン (limited edition)

    彩冷える-ayabie- - 桜舞う季節に (TYPE A)

    R指定 - スロウデイズ (通常盤)

    葵&涼平 - モノクローム (TOKUMA limited edition) (case-less)

    オトガデッド - Asterisk

    Plastic Tree - Single Collection

    Plastic Tree - トレモロ

    Plastic Tree fan club 'zine (another nice freebie)

    I might wanna replace a few cases, especially "enemy" (that poor case is all banged up).

    トレモロ was the second only time I've won a little "bid war" on the RH streams, and it's one of the rare instances where I get a CD purely for the artwork.

    Oh... and I need to brainstorm on new places to put my CDs...

    ... 'cause I have a few more on the way

    ... and some more that I plan on buying...


  6. oKGfgfc.jpg

    AvelCain - 月 -MOON-

    THE BLACK SWAN - 赫音

    heidi. 恋愛リマインド

    MERRY - 平日の女 (limited edition B with music video, and the same postcard everyone else got)

    MERRY - Happy life (regular edition with second unwarranted remaster of 絶望)

    Got them from CDJapan, which I didn't want to do. I originally wanted to buy these from Amazon, because they were selling a discounted limited edition of Happy life, but noooooooooooo, they decided not to stock any more copies of MOON, so I had to buy CDJ and just went with the plain version of Happy life.

    I also didn't want to buy a physical copy of MOON at all, because CDs published by Shimizuya are not worth the money (minimalistic artwork at a higher price). Only reason I'm buying physical copies of the new AvelCain singles is because the band/label aren't posting HQ covers.


  7. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

    I haven't had too much time to play it, so I haven't really gotten anywhere yet. So far, it seems like a watercolour textured 80's high school movie (that storyline) that takes place in medieval times, and everyone looks totally weird (especially Zelda). And I'm pretty sure the giant birds eat people...

    Oh, and you can only save your game if you "pray" to a bird statue.

  9. I'm surprised it's not a single, since コドモドラゴン and 己龍 announced singles two days ago, and BP bands always announce the same kind of release on the same day (conspiracy). I have low hopes for this album because I hated THE BEGINNING, and Supernova was only okay. I guess I can hope the other tracks on the album are a hundred times better.
