Eraser

^ And I was thinking I'm the only one who'd prefer new songs. This could be a huge surprise if they weren't talking about 7 NEW songs in the first place, but now I can't deny I'm disappointed (while super-excited for these remakes in the same time).

Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic This is my first anime since 2009 (omg) and I kinda like it so far.

Hi everyone! I'm searching for a brutal rip-off of DIR EN GREY's "THE FINAL". I know a lot of songs out there fit into the description, so here's some more info (still not enough, I'm afraid, but maybe someone can help me): Most likely it's from a vk band. I'm 99% sure it was the last song of a 3-track single. I think both the band and the song have one-word english name/title with FULL CAPZ, but I'm not certain. I have a feeling either the band name or the song title started with letter "D" or "N", but this is just plain guessing and not really helpful anyway. Found it in a thread of the old TW forum (something like "Rip-off songs"). That's all I can recall after 2-3 years. I'm not even know why I'm so obsessed with this song, maybe I just want to have it for nostalgic purpose. Thanks a lot for any help!

I don't see how King Records helped lynch. to improve in any way.

I'm not really familiar with this band (just got to know them this month lol), but I love how they're putting out completely different, yet surprisingly good songs in such a short amount of time. This one won't be my favourite, and yeah, a bit GazettE-like, but all I can say is keep up the good work and give us an album now pls.

Me too, but I've tried them with Firefox now and they've loaded immediately. I'm using Flashblock for Chrome, maybe that caused the problem (even though I had manually enabled the previews). Btw this new song sounds promising so far.

These previews have been loading for more than 5 minutes to me and nothing happens. But if I'm correct, there is only one new song (雨と夜に墜ちて) eventually, so I won't miss too much.

^ lynch.'s last two releases were INFERIORITY COMPLEX (album) and LIGHTNING (single). 99% of people here think their 2011 releases (the two you've mentioned) were much better than these last two, but if you miss their heavy sound, you should check IC.

Agreed on ASSaulter, the full song is really enjoyable and probably it will grow on me later (I still don't think it's great or anything like that, but not bad at all). Didn't finish listening to Owaru sekai no hajimari wa kinari due to horrible sound quality, but based on what I've heard so far, it sounds like swallowtail pt. 2 (for a little time, I was thinking it's the exact same song).

Yeah, but not special (at least to me). I was expecting something that explains this hilarious title, probably something new and/or harder.

Not really found of neither the PV preview nor the tracklist, but let's wait for the full song/album release. I guess they set my standards too high with Deus ex machina. Also I don't think Deus ex machina will be a good closure for Type A and Type B (I've always imagined it as the 3rd song or something like that).

Kanji: my last anthem nothing more… 繰り返すだけの日々　終わりを望んだ 何も充たされない孤独を　解っていただろう 太陽に背を向け　逃げ出す事は容易い 宙吊りの恐怖 Truth is corrupt in black Close your eyes Blood is flowing, Heart is moving Do not be afraid, is it so? just gonna be us 焼き付けろその瞳に痛みを 奏で合う5つの想い fall in the earth whatever you do 信じているから　同じ痛みも背負える 鏡に映る虚像を壊せ　また何度だって… just gonna be us 焼き付けろその瞳に痛みを 奏で合う5つの想い 唯一の賛美歌はこの胸に 名も無き声よ、響け fall in the earth ------------------------- Romaji: my last anthem nothing more… kurikaesu dake no hibi owari wo nozonda Nanimo mitasarenai kodoku wo wakatteita darou Taiyou ni se wo muke nigedasu koto wa tayasui Chuuzuri no kyoufu Truth is corrupt in black Close your eyes Blood is flowing, Heart is moving Do not be afraid, is it so? just gonna be us Yakitsukero sono me ni itami wo Kanade au itsutsu no omoi fall in the earth whatever you do Shinjiteiru kara onaji itami mo seoeru Kagami ni utsuru kyozou wo kowase mata nando datte… just gonna be us Yakitsukero sono me ni itami wo Kanade au itsutsu no omoi Yuiitsu no anthem wa kono mune ni Na mo naki koe yo, hibike fall in the earth Source: http://ameblo.jp/hope-in-darkness/entry ... 53485.html

+1 I hate this "cap everything" tendency. Also, poor Last.fm users.

This single was awesome, the PV is really good as well. Hope they will release a full album soon.

^ I think these pictures are a bit different from the actual covers. They used other colors on their OHP and CDJapan.

Covers and promotion picture had been added to their OHP: http://www.nightmare-web.com/pc/

Good news, but I don't think they will change their style with this release (based on the title and recent single). We can still hope for another FORTITUDE though.

OMG YES!

http://www.12012.jp/#id105 Haha, what is this? I hope everyone will vote for songs from their s/t as "worst of 12012", so maybe they will realize how bad it actually is. I'm a little bit surprised at 太陽 (Taiyou) is their most-hated song till now, I think it was really good.

Maybe these are old news, but I'v just noticed they changed their OHP (again). Plus here is the album cover for the new single:

Are there 2 different songs in this video? I kinda like it from 0:31 till 1:13, but the rest is just hurts my ears.

I'd choose lynch. They're still one of my favourite japanese bands, and despite that there recent stuff are far from what they had accomplished in the past, they've never release anything bad in my eyes. Some years ago I really liked DEATHGAZE too, but the songs they have been releasing for years are sound the same imo Sometimes I still enjoy their music, but can't really praise them anymore (although I think there last album was better than BLISS OUT, so that can be a good sign to me).
