Well, they're not remakes, they're just re-recordings. They basically added a little bit of the new D.I.D sound that they think has shown and changed the songs with that. Personally, I still like the original Amaryllis, which is why I'm worried about trying out the remake of Lilley Of the Valley. I also think they did this because they just wanted to play Para;noir songs under their new name live

I love the fact that the lyrics for CODA is a really short poem involving some of the song titles in it: CODA Beautiful shapes Five shadows creep over a malformed box Ugly feelings that can never be stifled are that of a beast’s form Transient dreams A providence born of devouring one another When you hide your real nature, you become the lie Warmth fades away with a silent rain Death and rebirth bloom on a gentle incline Memories disappear into a sea of loss Distracting ideas have sprung from wings sticking inside my skull The path from the cradle until now, it knows no love If the white I grasp when I abandon my essence is the proper thing, then I’ll go on to the deepest black Below a square sky, flowers grow on soil where dead bodies rest The beautiful deformity proceeds into a dazzling darkness The end and the beginning

This Scene literally made me tear up, and i think it was genius on naughty dog's part to include something so intense and tear jerking right at the very beginning of the game. To me It made Joel's character stand out from the very beginning and really made you feel for him emotionally right from the get go, also it sets up the premise and harshness of the world and setting excellently. This^ Also the end of Beyond: Two Souls when you choose "life" in the end. It kind of takes an unexpected turn, but it was good! Made me tear up and I was just watching it as a playthrough, that's how emotional I got

That actually wasn't bad, I might actually check this release out

Sorry it's a facebook link but I do have it set to public so you should be able to view it, check it out and let me know what you think! I recommend hitting the HD button as well, the audio is way better like that (obviously). https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=679795742045172

Here's where I have my troubles with your post. I, in no absolute way, see a similarity in INSIDE BEAST's chorus and SUICIDE CIRCUS's pre-chorus, the tempo is different, maybe thd rumming does but I did not hear the similarities and I even played the parts together and I still can't hear what you're talking about. Also, Yoin repeats the first 8 measures of that small section you mentioned, whereas LOSS has the same guitar "strum-mute" technique, but the drums, vocals, and even the guitars themselves start taking in a different way than Yoin, so once again, I don't see the similarites aside from the guitar. The following are deductions based on what I've read: I think we can all begin to agree that UNTIL IT BURNS OUT and THE TINY STUPID INSECT belong to the group of "Worst songs on BD" and I agree, we can agree that REDO and LAST HEAVEN are one of the better ballads to come out in a long while, we can agree that INSIDE BEAST is crazy and a bit inncohesive but has the most catchiest chorus that gets you hooked, we can agree that MALFORMED BOX and CODA blend in beautifully to their neighboring songs. I do have to agree with Jigsaw9's impression of TO DAZZLING DARKNESS, I think it's probably the best song on BD and CODA helps out with that (Naturally, Uruha composed the two best songs on here) How are people not talking about Reita's bass section in INSIDE BEAST (1:55-2:09), it's probably my favorite Reita moment in this album

Both Sai and Hellion have points that I share with them. There really isn't a track on here that leaves me like, "Holy crap, I really gotta spam the crap out of it" this time around, but this album is a more solid effort than TOXIC and DIVISION. The GazettE is finally over having to need the electronic bleeps and sounds every time something new happens in a song and leave it more to adding a background or just for the intros and outros of a song. MALFORMED BOX has to be the best intro post-DIM yet, and CODA (while it's not an SE) is definitely an amazing album closer and Uruha just nailed that. REDO and LAST HEAVEN are definitely some fresh songs we haven't heard from The GazettE in a while...or ever. REDO has a very nice piano melody towards the intro but I can definitely hear the guitars have a tone reminiscent to STACKED RUBBISH or perhaps their REGRET single. LAST HEAVEN was a definite change of pace, it seems lately we've been hearing The GazettE try to be heavy but here's them trying to go in another direction with the "romantic" acoustic melodies. Tracks 8-12 all feel like they'd be more suited to be played at a live show. TO DAZZLING DARKNESS is Yoin to me but with less of a somber tone. We have some dark melodies going on but the song seems to eventually pick up the pace and change. Absolutely love the transition between To DAZZLING DARKNESS and CODA I like this album and I don't, it's keeping my attention, but just that. I keep coming back to it but I don't know what about it makes me come back. DEVOURING ONE ANOTHER has to be the one song I truly end up skipping not even halfway through. I'm going to give this a couple more listens throughout this week, maybe when I'm not so preoccupied with college tests but this might end up growing on me soon enough. but right now it's a little like Zess said, "average" I do love the fact that Reita is AUDIBLE!!! Also, Kai s probably the prominent thing in this album, and by that, I mean that I enjoyed his instrumentation the most, truly some awesome drum lines Better songs of the crop: REDO, LAST HEAVEN, TO DAZZLING DARKNESS, CODA, INSIDE BEAST By the by: BEAUTIFUL DEFORMITY s currently ranked #9 in the iTunes UK metal chart

Just got X today, already beat the first gym leader and this game is blowing me away!!

Most of TOXIC was in Drop B or A except for UNTITLED and the singles..DIVISION had some of the ballads in drop C and the rest in Drop B. Would be nice to hear some higher tuned songs

Of course not but usually the songs that have a cool name to me usually end up sounding good to me with the exception of SCREW and Sadie

Excited for a DIV release for the first time since I'm finally getting into them

I wonder if he actually used it hahaha I know he smokes so Hookah should be nothing to him

Okay the first one off the bat that I would have to say woud be 2SIDE1Brain, a pretty awesome japanese band I stumbled upon last year when they released their album Blood Eyes Red In case the link doesnt work, I would hate to leave you empty handed so I direct you towards Rin Toshite Shigure and their album, "Still a Sigure Virgin?" Truly awesome album and the band has a style that is hard to forget.

As opposed to the spot, the PV looks a lot more fast-tempo both with the song and the scenes. The reason the song is because they are different songs but either the PV was slowed down the fit the Spot using To dazzling darkness or the PV has some slow moments which means INSIDE BEAST does as well...

If I didn't know better, I'd say that it looks like his SUICIDE CIRCUS suit but with slightly bigger polka dots

Inside Beast isn't appealing to me that much right now but I am definitely digging these previews. Kind of upset they didn't shed their electronic stuff but they're actually making it work here unlike in TOXIC. Liking how they have the ballads in the middle, it's kind of like a break before getting back into things. REDO and LAST HEAVEN are just liquid gold to my ears

Mmm... Similar to Same Sky in a sense but with a more ska flavor. Definitely going to be an awesome album!

Rosenstrauss was a decent single, this one sounds a bit promising by the name

Well, we're down to 5 days left until the release. I don't think we're getting a preview until the day before

I'm in between that DIM group and the everything else group, but that was a brilliant way to put it. I'm hoping for something that will blow me away here. The only thing that blew me away from TOXIC was Untitled and Ruthless Deed. Division was a better album and I'm just hoping that this album is better than the rest of them. Of course it's not going to beat DIM or maybe Stacked Rubbish but it would be nice if it came close to it.
