More of the same. They still make awesome tracks but it's getting repetive and it's hardly different of anything they relased before. They need to evolve. 7/10

Poor Karma, so underrated =(

Looking worfward to it.

B'z makes good things happen in my pants.

It better be good or I will rage on Sharaku for not doing more stuff with Cuckoo. In fact, I think he should drop all his ongoing projects and get a fuck full algum recording with that band, カッコー??巣??上?? was arguably the best single last year.

-Slap bass. -Songs with a fancy and energetic piano melodies. -Deep ultramelodic vocals. -Orchestal arrangements of rock/metal songs. -Silences or partial silences before some specially killer part of the song. -Piano only/piano + voice cover songs. also And that's it for me.

Junno from BeaU and boogieman. Iori form Phantasmagoria an Spiv States. That 12 year old drummer from TOSHI WITH T EARTH The people of Vidoll that are noy Jui. Also Metronome should come back.

Oh! Thank you very much for the suggestion The truth is that I really enjoyed the guitar parts in Solar Eclipse and Le Grand Bleu. Those where awesome, but I like the mature sound of Gemini Trilogy more. Anyway guitars where great in those tracks.

Worst than spected. The preview sounded great but the 3 songs overall where listen-delete, but not bad. Anything by Megamasso surpass this by far, as allways when we have that Aoi guy involved. 6/10.

Never really excited about this guy's work so I was not disapointed with this release. Misery was just OK. The other songs bleh whatever. Anything of SADS sounds better imo.

La vie en rose o.oU it's french and has colors in it.

No. Do you like tuna?

Not oly de song is unoriginal and the PV is lame, but Jui's vocie sounds way worse than in vidoll. Did he skipped his recover treatment or something. This project has "fail" written all over it.

I also agree on the world tour thing. They 100% focused on japan. There is a small chance if we think of VAP letting Maximun the hormone have a few shows on Europe, but I would not count on it since is known that most of the band members don't even have a passport xD Im almost sure they will give a name and release date to the album since the have even introduced some of the new tracks in it at some lives, and they said back in december we will have news on their studio work 'soon'.

But all of their recent sigles made it to top 5 without being anime songs wich is quite solid for a visual kei band as they are. Plus as you said their last not conmemorative album went straight to top 3, while their last best of release is on their top 10. Also, as I said their lives have been growing in attendance and profit. The band's current status is unmistakeable solid.

Why? because they are more popular than ever in japan? Because their frecuent lives have been growing in assistence since two years now? They said they are aiming for a Tokyo Dome concert and #1 on oricon. That does not sound like they are planning to disband.

I really hate shimizu yoshiyuki's voice but this sounds interesting. I hope it's a more serious project than GalapagosS.

They have been recoding a full lengh album since before summer and they have talked about it in quite many previous lives during their 2010 tours. They will be announcing the details such as title and release date, and also wouldn't be rare to have a new DVD announced for their anniversary tours.

2 consecutive month releases. If I like how Shuu sounds in this band I may wish a 3rd release in May. Can't whait to hear Howling.

This: http://www.youtube.com/embed/Z-d87YGqW1s Also, and Kobayashi Sharaku (now in Floppy, cuckoo and GalapagosS) Temari (Now in amber gris) Hakuei (does not need introductions) Toshi (same here) Junno (ex-BeaU and ex-boogieman now retired)

They both have deep voices and they way they sing it's not 100% different but Shou does not sound like Yomi in this album (or any other). I think Yomi sounds way better but I am a Nightmare fanboy anyway, so never mind.

I am not a big fan of A9, I've heard some songs and I dug some albums, but nevew blew me away though I fund their music enjoyable. But this album is waaay different. I. The instrumentals set an epic mood that it's great to start any album. Good melody and the pacing create a great mood of anticipation in the listener wich is boosted during all the song due to it's in crescendo nature util things get a bit more soft for the ending, wich flowss great. 7/10. RUMWOLF Heavrier sounds and interesting riffs set a good scenario for a really kick ass chorus. Great bass segments and great guitar solo. 8.5/10 Stargazer: I liked this single. The song has a soft texture and feels warm and gentle and has a decent melody. The guitars are enjoyable, but the druming is absolutely boring and sets and unexciting rithym to the song that has to do the rest with the melody wich not outsanding. Not a bad song, but gets eclipsed by the previous track with ease. 6.7/10 4U An even softer song. At this point I started to think that the album was starting to go downhill. 4U is not a bad song, bot notable either. Performance partially saves the song of being an not moving and unoriginal ballad rock ballad that feels uninspired. Skipeable. 5.5/10 蜃気楼 te album comes back to "stargazer mode". Both songs create too simmilar ambiences but this song it's more festive than warm and that benefits the album, because other emotionalesque song after 4U would be overdoing it. The song itself, despite not being stellar or special it's a good start for the album recovery of two bad placed tracks. 6.9/10 KING&QUEEN Harder song, with akward vocals segments in the melody, but a well balanced powerful chorus that is greatly apreciated (specially after the album's last tracks) and get the album to greatness again. The closing rap verses where a exciting and smart way of ending the song. 7,5/10 Entr'acte Mysterious instrumental interlude with etheral sound. No real value for me, but manages to give 閃光 a bit more of momentum. 閃光 it was great on the single and it's still great here. Inteligent use of guitars keep the song away of being monotonous and the melody is very good. 8/10 風凛 It pretends to be a bland ballad for the first seconds but it turns out like a powerfull and moving slow song with a retro/classic vive to it. It sounds really conservative to me but works really well and the percussion really moves the song forward. I liked it specially just before the guitar solo gets in (wich is also really good). The instrumental ending sound a bit like pono jazz but essentially, great song. 8.5/10 GEMINI-0-eternal fuck yeah. Emotional but strong and interesting. This song just feels right for them Props for the acoustic part near the end, with that great expresive voice and the background synths 9/10 GEMINI-I-the void this second movement acts a heavier core of the piece and it's made of win. If noly all A9 songs where like this! Guitars remind me of some SOAD songs. All instruments work marverls and the voice suits everything perfectly and performs almost flawlessly. 9.5/10 GEMINI-II-the luv despite it's metallic entrance, the last act of the GEMINI piece is the most calm and emotive part, and works ecually well. It references 0-eternal with more acustic (wich I also liked) and end a fantastic trilogy with it. Great job. 9/10 birth in the death electric beats, distorsions and minimalism. A not surprising choice for start the album's clousure. The final boost with the keybord and the rock sounds is really appealing. 7.5/10 Overture fun electronic heavy rythm filler track. I love them. The also added this mysterious etheral thing the have pulled off through the album wich is cool as well as the guitar work. 6.8/10 This album has surprised me greatly. It's a blast, even with some weak songs. 8.5/10 no doubt.

Lol sounds horrible. Ryuuto's vocals are scary bad.

This. Also, I won't be surprised if the only quality music Jui does is as LEGENDARY SIX NINE guest vocalist (wich is quite likely to happen imo).
