    01.Shout & Bites

    02.Philia

    03.Sympathia

    04.The Revenant Choir

    They always play the same old songs, they should play some songs from jubilee and more from lyrical sympathy, prince & princess, and noble like beast of desire or love form a dead orchestra, god palace, those are their better songs it seems they always play the revenant choir, sympathia, shout and bites, the red carpet day, ascended master, and aristocrat's symphony. always a selection between these songs


  2. A lot better than their first Release i think personally,

    1: Black Rainbow - In some areas it reminds me of Dio but not nearly as great to me personally but still a solid song i guess. 6.5/10

    2: Calling Me - I'm really liking this one and mikuru sounds great so but the "calling me" verse is a little weird. 7.5/10

    3: This is The Life - A Decent song solid but still only slightly above average for me personally without mikuru would be less than that musically i think but a listenable song and not bad at all. 7/10

    Overall not a bad release but they're a little bit too much of a regular modern visual kei rock/metal band for my liking while Dio was a little more interesting at least to me however if you hated their first release but love dio you might want to give it a try at least. Overall rating 7/10

    :wan-16:


  3. Ok, I was expecting something better when VANITAS came out too. It's way too experimental for my taste, but seriously, how can someone love NEGA and hate PERESTROÏKA ? It's almost exactly the same thing. People just hate it because there's eletronic stuff in it. I don't get why people hate eletronic music so much. No matter how fabusome it is, if there's any autotune/trance/house/dubstep on it, there will always be someone to be bitching like "HURR DURR, real musicians don't use eletronic stuff to make their music. I h8 eletro music. It's not real music. It's gay" and so on.

    I don't hate electro music entirely but I'm tired of it being used in music so frequently in bands and i personally don't like that sort of music, yes Perestroika sound different to me than nega they aren't TOO bad or different though but well i don't like nega anymore either anyway i don't even know why i thought i did to be honest only a few okay songs and that's it maybe their old old stuff were more my type of sound but still musically there wasn't a lot to be desired. it seems every decent band though or musician in the visual kei scene i used to like have gone through this electro stage in their career and i don't like it.


  4. kote kei like it was in the 90s is pretty much dead now though and with undercode gone there aren't even any half way decent visual kei bands around anymore... at least kote kei is for sure dead at this point


  5. NEGA will end and they'll continue with that alter-ego band fulltime

    If they did that I'd be more than delighted xD

    I like NEGA, but I love PERESTROIKA.

    You've got to be kidding me perestroika were garbage


  6. doesn't seem to be any reviews of this yet and even if there were it would be very difficult to find any considering the title of the album haha but well here it is

    1: Prelude - Its nice and all maybe even better than the original but i just don't understand why they had to include this on the album. 8/10 i guess

    2: Rose - Its not bad but not fantastic either it has some nice moments and i like the chorus but for the most part its a really forgettable song 6.5/10 just because i know they can do much better.

    3: Rhapsody of The Darkness - Based on the description we got a while back i initially thought this could be epic but really the harpsichord doesn't add much to the song and is only played throughout a few times i believe, not really the baroque/malice mizer-esque feel i was expecting but well i have learned not to have huge expectations anymore for these guys. overall not that impressed seems average and boring to me 6.5/10

    4: Edge of The World - this one is kind of different i like it although kamijo does drag it down a little bit but the chorus isn't too bad and the guitar work i think is good too, i tend to enjoy their heavier songs a lot though. so for me 7.5/10

    5: Illusion (Album Ver.) - I don't notice any changes really but i think its a nice song and does reminiscent that of lareine musically a little 7/10

    6: Ayakashi - I like the Traditional Japanese sounds they integrated and its an alright song 7.5/0

    7: Created Beauty - its a pretty good song although i think the chorus is repeated a little too often or is it just weak in comparison to the rest of the song? i don't know but overall i think hizaki did a wonderful job musically and kamijo seemed to have found his charm again even if i still think he sang better before holy grail he really has a beautiful natural voice i wish he wouldn't force it so much anyway I'll be generous. 8/10

    8: Holy Grail-Amoroso - The opening violin segment nearly brings me to tears and i really enjoyed this even if they just rehashed a few old ideas from holy grail. 8.5/10

    9: Brave - a nice little up tempo song i like it and the chorus is really catchy i think its one of my favorites on the album and that solo is nice 8/10

    10: Truth - its a okay song and has some alright moments too but well i think they could have picked a better song for a music video but still i think its kind of nice 7.5/10

    11: Sympathia - Yeah another oldie its good but i think the original was fine the way it was i think this was just another filler 8/10

    Overall - 7.5/10 to me it seems apparent that they probably rushed this one together as well but i thoroughly enjoyed it for the most part and has a few songs that are worth going back and listening to again in the future unlike their last album. I'd say even though i know they could do a lot better it was still in my personal opinion more enjoyable than that of holy grail even despite being one of their shorter albums, if this is really their going away present to us though then I'm a little disappointed so much for going out with a bang. :kthxbai:


  7. Sounds okay but its still a shame that we're essentially getting only 4 new songs :/ i think the music is alright though but i want to strangle kamijo still... i don't understand he had such a beautiful voice before from lareine all the way up until jubilee and then he starts using that shout singing technique for EVERY SONG even songs that don't call for it as much and just ruins the atmosphere of every song (in my opinion).
