11.DELUGE
12.HINDSIGHT
13.OMNIA VANITAS
That's an interesting sorting. I'm glad HINDSIGHT will be on the album. It's a good song that wasn't mastered very well.
As for OMINA VANITAS, maybe it will be an instrumental/sound effects track that will make HINDSIGHT a proper ending?
-
^^ It's too bad it probably won't make it on the next album. It's a great song!
-
^ I know it's three months later, but I feel I should still answer that question before asking mine.
Just in case you haven't tried it out yet, the site looks legit. I think prices are decent because they're in Taiwan, not US. But if you're still not sure, make your first purchase cheap.
I have two questions:
1 - Does anyone know if Japanese iTunes has finally upgraded all they're stuff to "iTunes Plus"? I've noticed that plus icons on some albums (that did have them) have disappeared, but I'm still not quite sure.
2 - What's a good shopping/auction service to use for mbok?
-
I like the idea of a continuation of TOXIC, only because the ending to that album was too abrupt. But I can say now that if there are intro/outro tracks, I will be pissed!
-
YES IT'S ABOUT TIME! August is going to be a great month.
-
葵&涼平? Nope! It's アヤビエ - and they're finally back, after years of 葵 having the metal sucked out of him, and 涼平...... doing something else that also isn't metal. Regardless of that, they've both matured as musicians. 涼平 has matured a lot as a composer, and while keeping to the typical song writing pattern, something about his songs are quite progressive. I really enjoyed this entire album, every song was great. My only gripe about this album is that it felt short, even for ten tracks.
I will say, however, that I'm glad they chose to re-record old songs as bonus tracks, especially the two they chose (copies of 閉園の後、雨 and 蝶 can set you back $50/each, maybe more). It's interesting to hear how much 葵's voice has matured since his very first song (閉園の後). As for the re-recorded version of 蝶, the guitars are clearer and everything is much more present. 葵 and 涼平 have also matured as producers.
This album is essential for all アヤビエ listeners. It has elements inspired by their present-day side projects, and something to remind you of the old days. It even has a cartoony CD cover, just like old times.
Recommended Tracks:
- ぬめり取りねぶり (!!!)
- カメレオン症候群 (agrees with Daggi's comment)
- 良秀ノ深遠ナル悩ミ (That kind of ending song that leaves you wanting more! Listen closely, you'll hear some screaming.)
-
And I spy with my little eye~...Suehiro Maruo artwork? (or just Maruoesque)According to the band's OHP, Suehiro Maruo designed the artwork.
Oh, and according to 7net shopping, the other two bonus tracks are just alternative versions of
and. -
live-distributed? goddamnit!!! Why do bands do this all the time?
-
The preview reminds me of their Houyoku material. Actually looking forward (and not cringing) to this release.
-
Love the OHP background music. This wait is gonna KILL ME!!!
And as for their new look: I don't usually focus on that, but...... Hiroto's hair. It's seen better days.
-
Love them,but hated their nyappy sound a bit. I'm glad they had a heavier latest single release.Though im hoping their next releases are good as their early music. I have a new faith on them.
I agree. Their 2010 releases weren't all that great, but 毒盛る gives me hope for their future releases.
-
I have seen this day coming for awhile, but finding out about it was somehow, still abrupt, it interrupted every thing, the mood I felt the minute before, every thought I was thinking. I still don't know what to say about this. I mean, he already quit his job awhile back, but still, this sucks!
May he rest in peace

Lyrics for entire album from utamap
02. VENOMOUS SPIDERWEB
PAIN, GRUDGE, SORROW, FURY
DELETE, HEADACHE, HANGUP, DIZZY
糸を這わす極彩色の罠で
背徳感を着せられたまま
「愛想良く笑ってくれないか?」
モザイクの先でちらつかす毳毳しい刃
Like a bacteria
You repeat an increase
Like a bacteria
The spider which undermines me
ベタベタと絡み付く猛毒に
まるで骨の随までしゃぶり尽くされてるようさ
Mischief of the venomous spider
Delete this deadly poison
Mischief of the venomous spider
その毒は蜜より甘いのさ
This is skilful trap
Delete this deadly poison
Like bacteria
The spider which undermines me
Perfect trap
Delete this deadly poison
03. SLUDGY CULT
Satanic play 病的な図式
噛み付く姿勢あれど
首輪外せぬ Timid baby
退廃的楽園の闇で
Unsatisfactory double suicide
まとわりついた感情に雁字搦めの犬
塗り合う罪と忠誠心
何も生まぬ Backstair gossip
Sludgy: Your remark
Position 当てにならないぜ
Your remark
Position 戯言ばかりさ
交わる事が出来ないなら
ばらばらに散ればいい
Abandon an ideal
まとわりついた感情に雁字搦めの犬
塗り合う罪と忠誠心
何も生まぬ Backstair gossip
Show your instinct
Abandon an ideal
塗り合う罪と忠誠心
何も生まぬ Backstair gossip
Sludgy: Your remark
Position 当てにならないぜ
Your remark
Position 戯言ばかりさ
Sludgy: Your remark
Position 価値ある死に様を
Your remark
Position 噛み付けば終わる
04. RED
あなたを深く知る程に
あなたがわからなくなる
「赤い糸」など見えないくせに
信じてたのは戻れないから
抱きしめて 嘘を知っていたのに溺れる心隠せない
唇に沈むあなたの熱に満たされてゆく 戻れない 今更
降り出した雨の中で
傘も差せずに震えてる
孤独を知るのが怖いから
あなた求めてた
「赤い糸」など見えないくせに
求め合うのは戻れないから
抱きしめて 嘘を知っていたのに溺れる心隠せない
唇に沈むあなたの熱に満たされてゆく 戻れないの今更
溜め息混じりの言葉に頷き返す
「掛け違う事でまた二人は笑い合えるさ」
I want to believe it
「赤い糸」など見えないくせに
信じてたのは戻れないから
全てに終わりがあるとするなら
二人はきっと永遠で…
確かなものなど無いと言うなら
二人の明日を誓えるよ
抱きしめて 嘘を知っていたのに溺れる心隠せない
唇に沈むあなたの熱に満たされてゆく 戻れない 今更
05. SUICIDE CIRCUS
Vision の腐敗
Here is a hell on earth
I felt a chill
The disappointment that increases
Tick-Tock, nobody can rewind time
Don't look away
Suicide circus
Aged hatred and young cold-blooded mind
Reason of the chill
其処に蠢く Poverty
Tick-Tock, nobody can rewind time
飛び散った Merciless scene
噎せ返るような生々しさに人は惹かれ
その触れた手に付着した恐怖もやがては薄れ
Metamorphosis
All is paralysed
Chain reaction
Sympathisers with a similar pain
救われぬ未来を抱え込み 踏み外したその弱さも
塞ぎ込み見失う自分を断ち 知って欲しかったその孤独も
不意に目の前を塞いだ苦脳の日々に掛け違うその憂鬱も
愛情故の言葉に憎悪抱き 惜しみなく曝け出す狂気も
もう戻れない 絡まり過ぎて
Even death becomes the prey
Heartless day
Bottom of the abyss
Suicide circus
Why is it repeated?
Suicide circus
Justice died
Bottom of the abyss
Suicide circus
Why is it repeated?
Suicide circus
06. SHIVER
たとえ…終わる事の無い悲しみがあなた奪っても
離れてゆく心など此処には無いと言って
駆け寄った背中に問いかける明日がどんな形でも
揺るがなかったのはもう信じる事を忘れたくなかったから
目を逸らす癖も曖昧な回答も笑えぬ嘘も
隣に居なければ意味さえ滲んでゆく
たとえ…終わる事の無い悲しみがあなた奪っても
離れてゆく心など此処には無いと言って
遠すぎたこの距離を埋める言葉が見つからない
過ぎ去る季節の中で追いつけなくなる事も知ってたよ
思い出すよりも忘れられない日々と言えたから
もうこれ以上が無くても受け止めれる
どうか戻る事の無い時に涙を流さないで
忘れてゆく心など此処には無いと言ってくれるなら
失いで知った二人の明日にあなたが泣いてる
やっと見れた素顔にはもう触れられない
たとえ…終わる事の無い悲しみがあなた奪っても
忘れないで 「さよなら」が嘘と思えた日々を
一人きりで見た空もすれ違う中で見た夢も
あの日のまま何も変わらず
あなたの中で今もずっと…
07. MY DEVIL IN THE BED
Mary, kiss my chest deeply
欲を狂わす Chloe の feminine
Mary, your the eyes
絡む呼吸は生暖かく
Abandon insanity
Scatter instinct
視線逸らさず噛み付いて
零さぬように舌先で
Endless fucking show time
The beautiful devil on the bed
Tempt me by masturbation
The beautiful devil on the bed
Let's have sex in darkness
寸劇 絶頂の最上階
すぐ其処で笑ってるようで
Endless fucking show time
The beautiful devil on the bed
Tempt me by masturbation
The beautiful devil on the bed
Let's have sex in darkness
Abandon insanity
Tempt me by masturbation
08. Untitled
いいわけを静かに聞き流してくれたのは…
「夢を見ていたよ 縋り付くだけのキミに」
―ありふれた言葉並べて
隙間を埋めるのは簡単ね
許し合う事に疲れたのは
いつまでも変わらぬキミの嘘―
Why do I repeat myself again?
悲しませる「癖」にまた一つ言葉を失くす
その涙の理由さえも何故僕は壊すのだろう?
俯き床をなぞる 交わさぬこの目を見つめ
問いかける声にまだ膝を抱えたままで
―ありふれた言葉並べて
隙間を埋めるのは簡単ね
許し合う事に疲れたのは
いつまでも変わらぬキミの嘘―
Why do I repeat myself again?
悲しませる「癖」にまた一つ言葉を失くす
その涙の理由さえも何故僕は壊すのだろう?
いつかの君が言っていた最期が見えた気がして
少しずつ消えてゆく変わらない君の笑みに
少しずつ離れてゆく心に触れた気がした
そう…悲しみが
これ以上聞こえぬように
そっと耳を塞ぐように
壊れてしまわないように
09. PLEDGE
傷付けた後でしか
気付けなかった事
過ちの数
君を求め見つめ合えたはずさ
小さな嘘が日々を埋めていた
疑いをかわすように
失う意味を心が知る
立ち尽くす二度目の冬
君は見えない明日に戸惑い
声を上げ泣いていたね
言葉を探す事も出来ずに落ちる涙を拾った
寂しさに包まれた日々は互いを濡らし
理解を求め合い
繰り返して
また深く想える
永遠を感じたのは嘘じゃない
確かに君の隣で
愛してるなんて もういらない
ただ ずっと側に居てと
声を涸らし泣いていた君に
壊れてゆきたい
最初で最後の言葉は君へ
その腕を離さぬよう
肩を並べた同じ夢が二人をさらう
小さな嘘が形を変えて白い息に溶けてゆく
失う意味を忘れぬように何度も胸に刻むよ
「さよなら」は
ここに置いて 歩き出そう
もう二度と見失う事は無い
二人 愛を確かめ合うように
悲しみも見てきたから
明日 二人消えてしまっても
もう泣かなくていいよ
いつか過ぎ去る季節のように
変わりゆく二人がいて
悲しみに立ち止まる夜が来ても
忘れないで
終わる事は無い
深い夢の中
10. RUTHLESS DEED
脅威に喰われ退廃の巣が溶け脳内を抉るParadox
I looked at the human truth
救いのその手 何処から滑らす?
Beautiful lie
[coward than anyone else]
However, it is right
Beautiful lie
[you don't change even if escape somewhere]
Nothing is wrong
This is a fact
群れをなし安息へ向かう影
In chaos
脅威に喰われ退廃の巣が溶け脳内を抉るParadox
目に見えぬのは明日だけでは無く 無数に転がる思想
現実は何時も歪むモノクロームParadox
目に映るのは偽善なのでは無く 数と比例する思想
溶け出す報い鳴き止まぬ
剥がれそうな心に
Asking oneself
答えさえも散る
脅威に喰われ退廃の巣が溶け脳内を抉るParadox
腐敗は隠されたもう一つの渦中で
何と引き換えに悲鳴をあやし傷を埋める?
無慈悲な灯火
溶け出す報い鳴き止まぬ
剥がれそうな心に問うように
明日を疑い今を躊躇う
啜り泣くあの空は真実が散る
現実は何時も歪む白と黒 脳内を抉るParadox
11. PSYCHOPATH
Right now destroy
Far out,
Did you drop the sexual organs somewhere?
笑顔の裏の傲慢さSplendid ugly boy
I want to destroy the your face
By my this hand
Product of the rotten industry
creepy creature
Play of psychopath, disagreeable
Splendid ugly boy, I hate you
Psychopath
I want your face
I make sure of your brilliant end with my naked eyes
Play of psychopath, splendid ugly boy
12. VORTEX
二度と消せないくらいに傷を深めてくMalice
イキ過ぎた頭を抉り飛び交うバッグにノイズを
使い捨ての愛と知って売られたカラクリ
「単純明快 無様な明日だ」って
理解してる時点で終わってる
歪み回る
The VORTEX of beats
吐き気の中で踊る
Right before my eyes
The world that decayed
Right before my eyes
You murdered somebody
Too tragic to stay with you
ぐるぐると回るループの中で
機械仕掛けの空に消えてゆく
[COUNTLESS BUG]
ざらついた舌で欲をなぞって
ストリードなダミーに夢を見せれば
苦だろうが悦に変わるさ
I don't wanna be motherfucking garbage like you
VORTEX of the industry
Shut the fuck up, jerk off
The only thing you really know about me
You can't take my soul from me
The only thing you really know about me
I can't answer your silly wish
暗い暗い闇に落ちてゆく
[COUNTLESS BUG]
汚れ無き声も泥に塗れ
今じゃその嘘に身を投げる
[COUNTLESS BUG]
スクラップになれば価値は消える
寸劇の涙はその胸に届かない
I don't wanna be motherfucking garbage like you
13. TOMORROW NEVER DIES
Don't delete the value to live for by death
感情を掻き乱して君が踊ってる
日々感じる苦痛を吐いて明日を生きれるなら
The only words that I can say to you
―Don't forget the heat that felt here―
脈打つ鼓動 胸に刺して君が嘆き叫ぶ
ヘドロ塗れのその足で此処に孤独を捨てに来ればいい
The only words that I can say to you
―Don't forget the heat that felt here―
Spit out a pain here
Erase a hesitation
聞こえているかい?
To this day
How many times did you think about death?
In the small world
The death doesn't give freedom to you
Even feelings fade away
How many times did you think about death?
In the broken world
If you can believe nothing
Spit out a pain here
The only words that I can say to you
―Don't forget the heat that felt here―
切りつける前に問いかけてみな あがいてまで生きてゆく価値に
明日を断つその無意味さに 誰かが願った明日に―
How many times did you think about death?
In the small world
The death doesn't give freedom to you
Even feelings fade away
How many times did you think about death?
In the broken world
Tomorrow does not disappear
Don't kill yourself
How many times did you think about death?
In the small world
The death doesn't give freedom to you
Even feelings fade away
How many times did you think about death?
In the broken world
Tomorrow does not disappear
Don't kill yourself

Time for my longest post EVER:
Judging by the samples, everything sounds pretty good so far. At first, I was a bit worried when I saw the track lengths at tower.jp
I'm cringing/laughing at the engrish in VENEMOUS SPIDERWEB
Wasn't expecting SLUDGY CULT to be fast, but it's still an awesome song.
I can't say I'm too fond of SUICIDE CIRCUS (but do think it would make a good "companion piece" to Filth in the beauty)
Untitled is calm, soft, like I expected, and I can't wait to hear how the rest of it turns out.
RUTHLESS DEED is my favourite so far and if the rest of the song is just as good as (if not better than) the preview, it may be my favourite GazettE song.
I'm afraid I have to agree with Chianti on PSYCHOPATH. It's well composed, but so far, nothing about it really stands out.
TOMORROW NEVER DIES has a more "middle of the album" kind of feel, like it could go right between Untitled and PLEDGE. I could be wrong when hearing the full song though
But overall, I never thought an album would be capable of surpassing DIM without being super depressing, but I think TOXIC will do just that.
-
I think guruguru is dead. I looked around a few months back and the page would either not load, or redirect to some search engine like most dead sites.
But closetchild is still around. I browse the shop all the time. it's here: http://www.closetchild-cd.jp/

Btw, isn't HDTV "old" technology in Japan?? I guess the only reason they hold on to DVD is because it's cheaper.How much is a Japanese Blu-ray going to cost? Japanese DVDs are already massively expensive so I'm kinda cringing at the idea of how much a Blu-ray release is going to be.
Blu-ray discs cost about the same as DVDs in Japan.

Covers and Tracklist for "REMEMBER THE URGE" up on OHP:

Must...resist...listening...to samplesss...Seconded
You're both doing a much better job than I did. Before samples were out, I promised told myself I wasn't gonna listen to any of the new material until the album was released. Then the day samples were released, I caved, immediately.
-
Alright seriously by the time they put out an album it will literally be ALL singles. What is this, the sixth single since DIM? That's just a bit over the edge of "ridiculous". Money vampires =__=Yes, this is the sixth. Hopefully, half of them won't appear on the next album.
I'm gonna be perfectly honest and say: while I am looking forward to new stuff, I was still really pissed to hear that the next release is gonna be a single instead of an album.
-
I think The GazettE hasn't released the PV yet because of what happens with HERESY. That's where they put up the samples of songs and PV previews and then they get leaked out (since they do it sometime before thy update their OHP). I guess they aren't planning on releasing the PV anytime soon. As for the B-side songs, they released HESITATING MEANS DEATH 2 days before release and then Naraku one day before so I still have hopes for at least a sample before the release. Although for PLEDGE, they didn't release a sample of any other song other than PLEDGE.
So that's how the SHIVER b-sides and VERMIN were leaked! I was always wondering. I'm really hoping the PV will be out soon though. I really want a good-quality rip of the full song. I'm getting really impatient with my 30 second audio preview and the radio rip quality is god awful.
-
To go back on topic:Are there any samples of the B sides yet, or do they never do that?
Nope, there are no samples, and there probably won't be any, but there is the possibility of AN UNCERTAIN SENSE being leaked soon (like HESITATING MEANS DEATH and VERMIN were). But I wouldn't count on that, considering that the single is set to be released in about 2 weeks and the title track PV isn't even out yet.
It is weird though that the PV is still not out. Most of the time, PVs are released at least a month before the CD release.
-
Do they even have fans still? >_> <_>Surprisingly, yes
Honestly though, I think they should just disband............FOREVER this time.
When 彩冷える-ayabie- disbanded, it should've been permanent! NO forming a new band with the same name, NO Aoi solo career (but now that I think of it, this CRAPALLCAPSAYABIE is all Aoi's fault).
But at the same time, I am interested to see if DEATHBIE will fail as terribly.
-
It seems like every single Japanese shopping/shipping service refuses to use a shipping method other than EMS.
It's total BS, it's not like it's gonna cost them any money or have a negative impact on their business in any way to offer other shipping methods that are more affordable.
-
I've been seriously hooked on Plastic Tree lately. I haven't been so addicted to a band since my Dir en grey obsession a few years ago.

I would recommend iTunes!
Technically, iTunes and Amazon MP3 are the same bit rate (256), but iTunes uses AAC which is way higher quality than MP3. 256k AAC is actually quite close to lossless, there's not too much of a difference.
