Hell! YEAH!!! There better be an instrumental like all of their past albums and mini albums. Just Be Myself played when I shuffled my iPod and I fell in love with JUSTICE again. I want more, I want new as well. More GLORIA and Psychic Paradise as well

I'm pretty sure it's "kodou de~!!" And it's three "ZEN ZEN TARINAI~!!" not four

Man, this is just sooo good. I really hope that the last part of the preview is how they end the song and it ends with a fade-out. I'm already forming how the song is going to progress. The transition between the two tempos was so good though, absolutely psyched for this new album!

Hell! YEAH!!! Read on Ayame and Yuu's twitter that they started shooting their new PV as of yesterday

"これが昨日のセットリスト。 そう。 6曲目にやったCRITICAL ELEVATIONが新曲なんです。" This is yesterday's setlist....yadayadayada, it would seem you are correct, it's one of their new songs.

No...No way...this is too good. I can already tell I'm not going to be skipping any of these songs, I am in love with them all, especially the title track and Canis Lupus! Can't freaking wait!!

Utopia from their NOAH single was also like it was going to be heavy but then the song went somewhere else. It started off really happy and almost christmassy and then the guitars took a turn that made it sound like it was going to be heavy.

Are they going heavier here? Seriously, have they ever let me down yet?! They are so good~

Miyavi, his voice sounds like the voice of what you expect of someone who does death vocals and smoke...except Miyavi doesn't. Sounds so raspy that I can't get through.

I'll give a pretty short review here. XANADU is a good single, I like it. While I don't think XANADU is any good especially after 6 listens, the rest of the B-sides are pretty damn good to me. 囀る刃 is most definitely right now in the ranking for one of my favorite songs from SCREW; Byou's voice doesn't bug me in any part of this song (or any of the other b-sides for that matter)and the guitar melodies and riffs are awesome. I love the chorus as well. The other 2 songs are the kind of songs I've always expected to come from SCREW (in a good way) and I love it. 7.5/10 I keep thinking of BRAINSTORM when I hear the title track and that's not good.

Ugh, I can't wait this long. Best I've heard from them in a long time! Not saying they haven't released anything good recently, they have. It's just that this tops them all~ I love the serene atmosphere to this song, the guitar melody with the "fade in" fx just piles on more to that atmospheric feeling. Can't wait for this, or at least a better quality like that PV

If you're talking to me, I have listened to those albums, I finally got around to listening to the rest of Dead Stock, and I got more into M&W with my favorite being ドレスコード

Man, what is going on in that preview? It's like the first 2 sections that they showed were two different songs, or at least the mood they gave off was different, even though it's the same PV. Even the third section was different than the rest until it went long enough to get to the chorus. I absolutely love this preview. I just wish their production was better cause I feel like the sounds made by the instruments are hollow. I kind of wish the instruments had more bass to them and were a bit louder, more in-your-face kind of deal. Looking forward to this even more now!

For some reason, I can only bring myself to do a song by song review unless the circumstances fit and even those circumstances I can't yet name myself... I'm being weird xD Anyways, I'm going to give a summary of the album and what I thought of it. This album has one of the best starters I have heard from them...ever. Such an awesome song キミのミタイモノ is. All throughout the whole album, not a single song bore me. I was astounded by how different they sounded. They have had some awesome guitar melodies and riffs but the ones on this album were absolutely amazing, especially with a song like Mukuro. The ballads are simply beautiful and blew me away compared to the ones on COLD BLOOD. Tear drop is my favorite ballad from them without a doubt. All in all, and astounding album, from start to finish. THE BLACK DIAMONDS >>>>>>>> COLD BLOOD.

I'm not going try and start something here but I'm curious... What do you mean Nightmare is the only jrock band that can pull it off? I can name dozens that can pull off the jazzy sound but how about I just mention one that will prove my point: SID.

Yes, they are. They are one of those bands who refuse to become major, despite their popularity, like GOLDEN BOMBER or Sadie. A praiseworthy attitude, in my opinion. Being indie or major has never had an influence on me as long as the music is good. For Daizystripper, calling their music good is an understatement. So psyched for this!!

I am excited for this cause I heard it was amazing, even though they are all old songs that I've seen live before. But the fact that their final of GROAN OF DIPLOSOMIA is in March shadows this because that's the DVD I can't wait for with all the new songs played live!

Hell yeah...They are seriously the one band that I have never said "That release was rather....meh" Amazing musicians these guys!

One more week!! COME ON!!

fmxgQVryx4I I was so focused on the song playing in the background that I didn't hear a thing they said. GALEYD's instruments don't just make the band, Garo is so damn good! With that being said, whatever song that's playing, it sounds so good! Genesis was the core of their sound, Loaded was their live style, and Destiny was their ballad style....I have to agree with that statement so much right now

While Sadisgate was a really good, strong single, Emily takes the cake. Loved this single very much and if they make more ballads, they should make them with this title track in mind!!! Emily starts with a lovely piano intro that I love, we have some lovely verses (with what sounds like Sophia backing up a little), a really great chorus, and small guitar solos between Chorus-Verse. The main guitar solo was really something, especially since I have always loved MiA's guitar work so much!! Thinker is sooooo good. Oh man, when they aren't trying to make the heaviest song they can or really intense, they should try to make more songs like this. There were still some screams in here but this song topped off any songs on their recent album without a doubt. Loved it. Apocalypse...it's a remake, sounds darker. All in all still good.

While I do wish that this album had been more of on a more epic scale, this wasn't so much for me but I still absolutely love Versailles and like someone on this forum once said, "Versailles could s*** in a bottle and I'd still love it." Edge of the World was certainly something new that I enjoy so much! Kamijo sounds dark, but with himself still there. My main grasping point was that guitar solo. The first measures of it were so awesome right before the rest got quiet only for the guitar melody to shine. Created Beauty wasn't as epic as I'd hoped for it but it was still good. The cooldown sounded like something from the winter times in Harry Potter and I loved that and Kamijo sounded pretty good. Holy grail amoroso? If I didn't know any better, it's just a medley of Holy Grail with a synth playing the vocal part of Masquerade. Still good. Can't remember Brave right now (not a bad comment on it, just haven't gotten around to it for some reason) Truth, this sounded a lot like the recent little singles they released this year, especially the guitar melody but it was still a nice song. The PV was really good but I didn't like the fact that for some reason it looked like Yuki was being lazy on some parts Not an amazing way to finish off this album before their hiatus but it's satisfactory enough for me.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! These were my first and one of my main girl rock bands!

I knew Emily was going to be a ballad because: A) They've never had a ballad single yet, and 2) Their new look looks nothing heavy or dark so I figured a ballad. These previews sound really good and I think I like it a lot more than Sadisgate! for Emily to beat it though, it has to have a sick solo (knowing MiA, it will), and the chorus needs to be good. All the rest sound good as well

F*** YEAH! MISSED HIM!!!
