    But no support bassist? Well I suppose either Rito or Satoshi (or maybe even Yuuki) could just do the bass themselves for studio recordings... Oh and ??? (ex. ?????? Dr.) helped edit Lycaon's latest PV.

    Not a fan of either kagerou or the studs but you have to give respect when a good musician dies. Rest in peace Daisuke.

    There's also another song called "FRAGILE". Maybe someone can identify it. Personally I've never heard of it but here: ???????????? ???????????????? ???????????? ???????????????? ?????????????? ??????????? ????? ????? ??????????????? ?????????????? ?????????????? ???????????????? ???????? ??????????? ?????????????????? ????????????????? ????????????????? ???? ??????????????? ???????????????? ?????????????? ????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????????????? ????????????????? ????????????????

    Time to be different and sit with the minority for a change Things I do like: Very nice, mellow piano. It's simple but effective. I think I heard it in the middle and at the end. It's a nice way to start and end the song. Great solo(s), as always. I don't know whether to call it a plus or a requirement. It IS Leda after all. The varying tempo in the song. I like the way that it just speeds up and then slows down at random parts in the song. It's not perfect but other bands would have butchered that. Things I don't like: I don't like the English lyrics. It's not even because they're in English but it's mainly because Juri sounds funny when he tries to sing in English. His voice just isn't as melodic as when he sings in Japanese. I can deal with that though. The misplaced brutality in parts of this song. I don't have a problem with guttural screaming and double bass if it's used properly but it's thrown about lazily here. This song doesn't need double bass. Fix that on the album version please. These TRANSITIONS! The intro piano to guitar transition was weak but the solo to verse transition at 3:58 was just horrible. If there were at least a second pause that would have been fine. The solo to piano transition at the end was well-done though, I must say. Overall, The farthest was just OK. I do not hear any of this "Versailles-ness" that I've read in this review. It sounds like Surveillance - Jagganath DELUHI through and through and more so that Leda had two OK demo songs in mind and mashed them together to create The farthest (which if he did, he did a damn good job of). I'll leave it with a 6/10. Good premise, not so good execution.

    Well now that you say it...I think it's Facebook. I tried doing a quick search but I couldn't find anything though.

    @SUBLIMINAL: I recognize you from somewhere. I just can't put my thumb on it. I remember that piercing fondly though. Picture is in my Facebook sig. I'm too lazy to post it here and I REALLY need a new picture. I've had it for almost a year.

    Well Rito said he's going into the studio today so perhaps they are working on new stuff.
  9. Zeus

    Yo.

    Nice to see you could make it

    I third Audacity + sound card as primary sound output. You really can't go wrong with that.

    Well I don't think they're disbanding. I'm just wondering if they're going to 9GBO. Rito updated his blog today. With my limited Japanese I think he said something about working on some new songs. I THINK.

    That I understand, but this band would definitely last longer if KISAKI were still alive to compose music for them. I don't know the exact details of his earlier trip to the hospital but I can probably say he was overworked. I like Lin a lot and as much as I want new releases, I want a living bassist too. Although I do understand that Kisaki needs to get this band off the ground quick.

    I tried salvaging what I could but I wasn't able to get much. Anyway, it's good to have you back and I'm glad you could find your way here
  14. Bad title, yes I know. It's almost two in the morning here and I want to leave this before I crash for the night. Let's start with saying that the existence of the new PV has been verified because it's on Yuuki, Rito and Satoshi's blogs. What it is, however, is uncertain. There are a few pictures but that's it. Even when I translated them I got no title or anything. Therefore I can't say whether it will be a PV off of Royal Order, one of the live-distributed songs or something completely new foreshadowing a new release. That's part one. Something else in the post caught my eye though. Rito said that even though Mio and Eve left they didn't pause activities and they went straight into shooting a new PV. Now let's think about this: do they have new members they haven't discussed yet and they're planning to debut them with this new PV or are they going to just stay with three members? (I think that if they were planning on getting new members they might have included them in the PV but there hasn't even been a mention of adding anyone at all. So if they're going to release the PV, is it going to be similar to the brilliant green's Ash Like Snow, where you're supposed to suspend belief that you hear a bass and a drum kit going?) On top of that, I find it very weird that both Mio and Eve would help to record LOVE SONG and Muchi and then leave without shooting the PV. Rito, however, made it ambiguous as to whether they participated but the post dated from the 6th of this month so I do not think that Mio or eve was there. So is this PV for a new release or what?

    They're not really my "speed" but I definitely do enjoy most of what I heard. I'm glad I gave them a chance. Now if they'd slow down with the releases just a bit I'd have time to catch my breath. It definitely seems like Kisaki wants to get this band off the ground.

    Royal Order era Quite possibly my favorite indies band at the moment. The bassist and drummer just left. I also read on the active members' blogs that they just filmed a new PV today. I don't know the title and I don't know if it's a PV from a song on Royal Order, or if it's LOVE SONG, or if it's Muchi, or if it's a new song. Discuss.

    It's a shame he didn't go, but a couple of friend's of mine and I can't resist busting his left testicle every now and then. I think everyone knew going in that he wasn't going to North Korea anyway but it was just hilarious doing it because there'd be no harm done. BTW did anyone notice that on the Miley Cyrus page the first three countries spelled out A/S/L?

    This is good news ^.^. hopefully this album will be more varied than Dixanadu was.
  19. Thank god for Facebook because I seriously would have just thought that we were having server overload again and would have tried again for who knows how long with no luck. It's sad that the old site died but I love you guys too much to give up so I'm back. So, sup?
