Was that really skip-y and glitchy and awful for everyone else, or just me? The sound of the songs themselves were great. The album seems like it's a cohesive piece rather than songs unrelated to each other. Glad I bought it.

I adored their singles earlier this year a lot. Looking forward to the new music, it's gonna be great!

I actually like this a lot. Like a lot a lot. I haven't heard from them in a while... I think whatever break they took was good. This is super fun and really easy on the ears.

Okay as long as someone is getting type B, I'm going to get type a. Kaya's song sounds great but Morioka is fucking amazing. So I'm gonna order type a later tonight maybe tomorrow. Are there any bonuses with this? Like posters or trading cards or any of that nonsense? In other words, will the packaging fit in a mail slot or do I have to send it to my mom's place?

Sai, I didn't care for Run either and so far it definitely is the weakest track. Glowing is classic LS, the reason why fans like them. Such a great song, cannot wait for the full album!!

Thanks for posting those previews!! I really like the feel of this album, but I have to ask: Who bought what type? I really want to buy type A, but if most other people did I'll buy type B so we can have all the songs. I'm buying one copy either way. Let me know so I can preorder it.

Not interested. Their last original single hasn't even been uploaded here has it? And now their doing the same song so many other bands, including one of my current favorites, are doing.... No thanks. I mean maybe I'll listen to it if it ever gets uploaded, but not particularly excited.

Dark Wings sounds good, but Dragon Princess, Sajou no Paladin and Cold Sleep all sound incredible. B-Sides are all way better than the main single, but the PV looks really nice I guess.

I honestly can't say I don't like it. Is it generic? Yeah I guess, but his voice still sounds good and the song is pleasing. It's not mindblowing or anything, but it is good.

I thought he was supposed to retire after Wisdom, but then he came back with two albums and now this so he's probably not going anywhere for a little while more.

I want to pre-order it, but I don't know if I should. Maybe I'll wait a little bit and then I will. I want it though. Bad.

Very cool, I LOVED their last single and their new song for their Best Album. Really really looking forward to this.

Zero One was flawless, this band is incredible. I'm really looking forward to these, even if I'll probably still be obsessed with Zero One by then.

Song sounded pretty good. REALLY disappointed in the tracklist. 5/18 new songs with words? That's really upsetting. So many instrumentals... I'm hoping that the bonus tracks will be good considering I've loved Kaya's and Ken Morioka's compositions. And holding out hope that there will be at least one Hora produced track. But the visuals are on point this era. He looks beyond amazing and the cover art is superb.

Bless your heart.

Anyone have this album's lyrics yet by any chance?

We could spend all night talking about the controversial albums Madrigal de Maria and Beautiful Deformity, or we could discuss how amazing Div's debut album is. Sure, the reason why we all loved xTRiPx is because their songs walked the line between hip-hop, hard rock, and pop-rock so, so well. But let's be real. Yo-Shit's vocals have become somewhat obnoxious over the years. Where he used to sing beautifully, he mostly just rap/screams lyrics and isn't the vocalist he used to be. Meanwhile, Chisa has a beautiful voice that he utilizes in every song. He can scream lyrics well, but doesn't overdo it for no reason. Not all of their singles have been as perfect as Natsu no Yukue and Taste of Life, but I can tell they have saved their best songs for the album. From beginning to end the album emanates brilliance. Vanish is an incredible way to start of the album, with beautiful vocals and a great composition that is found throughout the album in songs like the title track, Chocolate Prayer, and Place. They have some slightly more experimental songs as they get really electro-rock influenced on Teddy and Asterios, the latter of which is probably my favorite song on the album. The flow from the interlude to Asterios was perfectly executed. Their catchier songs, Miseinen and Sekirarara, are a ton of fun. I don't see too many hook-oriented songs in J-rock, and they still don't fit the bill for that, but you'll be singing the melodies and saying "Sekirarara" after listening to these songs! The choices for what singles to put on the album... I totally approve. Natsu no Yukue is my favorite of their singles so far (especially considering their INCREDIBLE B-Side Hotarubi). Seasons I would've liked to see replaced by Taste of Life, and Answer is a great choice due to it being their debut promo song. Finally, they have the power-pop-rock-ballad, I Swear. The song is huge. It's long, about as long as Seasons, but the difference is it keeps you interested the whole time. It's beautifully sung and interestingly composed. Overall one of the BEST albums I've heard from any J-Rock band this year. Or the last few years. COMPLETELY out of this world. 5/5

So far, I really like it. I've always been a fan of them putting modulated synths in their work. Toxic, for me, was a great album. I know that's an unpopular opinion, but I don't really care. I love it. So hearing those influences on a few tracks, Inside Beast, Devouring One Another, Stupid Tiny Insect.... I enjoyed that a lot. I thought the intro to the album, Malformed Box, was a great way to start the album. Could've probably been a great full song. Fadeless ended up being a good single to represent the album, but was still one of my lesser favorites, that and Redo which was definitely a departure from the rest of the feel of the album... It was good, better than the preview suggested, but still not as good as the rest of the album. I loved Last Heaven. Thought it was an amazing ballad. Not a fan of the intros of In Blossom and Karasu, but at least In Blossom got better. I really don't care for Karasu at all. Loss was a really pretty/dark/atmospheric song (if you will) that I enjoyed immensely. Kuroku... Is a good song for it's energy, it definitely has a fun rocking out vibe that I approve of 100%. To Dazzling Darkness is just reminiscent of Chizuru enough for me to be in love, totally fantastic song. I'll be playing this one a lot, just like I did with Chizuru. Coda was a great outro, could've been a great song, but whatever. Overall, I'd give it a 5/5... Maybe a 4.5/5, but I really enjoyed every song save for Karasu.

@CaRaN Ahh, I don't follow Sid anymore, that's why I didn't know. So this is basically a cover single with a B-Side that's original? That's cool. I'm here for it.

I would've liked their album to come out first, but I'm always happy to have new Div music. Sort of random to have it all released at the same time like this though.

I'm excited for new music, all the other stuff is irrelevant to me.

This sounds god damn incredible. I am so beyond ready for this.

This sounds totally amazing. I am 150% here for this album I am so excited omg.

Oh damn.... Oh well the show will still be amazing!!
