I like Glowing

I don't think it is about success a lot of artists have very big & successful projects and still do other projects.

^ Thanks !

They're supposed to be covers.

Listened to guernika preview ... I feel like they're not making an effort into this :/

btw can anyone tell us the b-sides names from the website http://kuroyume.jp/ ?

Looking forward to it

I like all of their albums, if they just let Hitoki compose more everything will be great !

Covers of their new singles are on their site now http://kuroyume.jp/
 

Nice guest list Looking forward to it

yeah !

Sounds good

https://twitter.com/JDA_FC follow them

They recently opened a twitter account for their fanclub https://twitter.com/JDA_FC
Their major debut 15th anniversary is next may. All the members schedules are on may.
So, I'm hoping for their return again. It would one of the happiest moments of my life.
 

It seems they totally forgot about Nakigara wo...

yes. according to Wikipedia it's a painting by Picasso

so we're getting 3 new songs, 1 self-cover & 2 covers.

I have high hopes for them this time.
I want something like Fake Star/Drug Treatment. my favorite albums from them.

now that a question came up in my mind,

does anybody experienced something like this before ?

like purchasing preorder thru cdjapan but release date pushed out ?

would they just keep my $$$ until then ? or do they refund me or something ?

please do tell me if anybody's kind enough to let me know : )

you can cancel the order & they will refund the money. or if you're still buying the album you can leave it as it is

finally ! new songs

I hope he gets better

I like the preview tracks

nice

Great !

by means, each phrases did not have that

smooth link between each phrases

I have that feeling when I listen to the preview a lot before the release

I like KINGDOM specially the solo.

BLAND NEW LOVELESS sounds like songs from CORKSCREW to me. still getting into it.

A good single overall.

btw, Hitoki just wrote lyrics to BNL, kiyoharu composed both songs.

I hope hitoki will compose more on the album, I prefer his songs.

It is announced at their live today that their new album 「黒と影」(Kuro to Kage) will be released on 6 November.

Their new live-limited single 「KINGDOM」 was released today as well.

Also, about artists quitting on a high note.
I don't think artists should quit as long as they can continue.
Morrie is still a great vocalist, compare him to toshi nowadays, his work with Creature Creature is beyond amazing. (better than DEAD END in my opinion)

I think tribute albums can fall into two categories, ones that try to faithfully reproduce the songs they are being covered and ones that try to actually put their own spin on a song. This album was mostly the former with the exception of the tracks written primarily by one person or band (Kiyoharu, Cali Gari and Boris). It was largely a cut-and-paste affair by the producer where the artists involved got to add their own flair but for the most part had to stay within the lines of what the original song was. You could almost feel like the musicians, while amazingly talented and varied in their own right across the Jrock / Vkei spectrum, weren't even in the same room together when recording these songs and just individually came in and recorded their parts. Maybe I'm wrong about this but considering the lineup, I'm a bit doubtful these sessions had everyone in the room at the same time.

Totally agreeing with you.
