  1. Okay, home from work, am doing t-b-t:

    In Paradisum - I actually love this as an SE. I don't want to rate these tracks, but I can say that Mana consistantly puts really strong SEs as album openers.

    The Seventh Veil - I'm in love with, it does sound like classic Moi dix Mois, but with a new twist to it. Better production, better vocals, stronger guitar. I agree with Seiji that it's like every MdM album in one song, but I disagree that it's a bad thing. I just can't get enough 9/10

    Witchcraft - I'm liking this one a lot. The screams were so much better in this than they usually are, but I'm feeling like it's another version of Pessimist. Again, not a bad thing. 9/10

    The Sect - Fucking fantastic song, truly a masterpiece 10/10

    Divine Place - Now is where I'm feeling that the whole Moi dix Mois thing is starting to take effect. How... it's just sort of the same general idea in the songs, it's a brilliant song, like The Seventh Veil, but it's just like a continuation of the song I feel. In any case: It's still a work of art. 9/10

    Pendulum - I actually love this. A lot. It seems like a really different route for them and I approve 9/10

    The Pact of Silence - SE, nothing really special.

    Ange ~D Side Holy Wings~ - Best Seth rerecording ever. Literally. I have never been more impressed with a self-cover song than with this song. 10/10

    Agnus Dei - Had a really unusual feel... Like I've never heard Mana try something quite like this one, but he worked it out really well. It's short, sweet to-the-point and addicting. 9/10

    Dispe... I mean... Sanctum Regnum - This is the only one that disappointed me. I'm sure I'll like the lyrics because I did with Dispell Bound, but the overall execution of the song is just sort of chant-y and not very... song-y. 7/10

    Dead Scape - Fuuuuuuuuu.... Omg. I hated the demo version that's been on youtube for a while, but the actual thing was just FANTASTIC. Really unusual drums to intro the song... Just all out masterpiece 10/10

    Dies Irae - This would have been a very successful way to end the album, a very very powerful song. 10/10

    Baptisma - Virtually useless as an SE, only real purpose is giving the song 13 tracks instead of 12.

    I know a lot of these didn't include what was actually in each song, lol, gimme a break I'm tired. In any case, I felt that they branched out A LOT and tried some new things that sounded great. I've never been so proud of Mana and Seth and K as I am right now.


  2. I actually liked COLORS, and Inochi no Ki was meh, but it had good B-sides. If girugamesh can keep momentum, they can actually manage to beat out NOW.

    Mainly because NOW sucked, and MUSIC was actually good.

    I liked COLORS and inochi no ki, I think the actual musical content of the album is going to be not bad... album name and art is just terrible, but people need to look past that and just listen to the album to make judgements. Even judging specific track titles is better than the art and name.
