    Dang, I hope you'll come around to it then, Cat!

    As for me, I am absolutely loving this album.

    The entire thing is solid to me, but my favorites are:

    禁じられた遊び (dark opening, facking awesome chorus)

    風に肖って行け (wtf? how the fuck is this so godly?)

    恐るべき大人達 (I get into the beat a LOT on this one)

    and 新しい文明開化. Such a great upbeat track!

    All the previously released tracks are still fantastic, but kudos on the new versions of Tengoku and the swingy-Dopamint. So much better! 女の子は誰でも is still great as ever, despite the weird transition, as herpes mentioned. An entire SR album of that+ 都合のいい身体 type songs, please.

    I relistened to ADULT after hearing this album and I had a newfound appreciation for it. That and this album are now tied for my favorites by Tokyo Jihen. Added Daihakken to my next CD order!

    I'd say, only because of my slightly lower level of enthusiasm for 2 of ukigumo's tracks, this gets a 9.5/10

    Wow, I had no real doubts that the album would be good, but it's nice to hear such a positive review from you herpes, haha.

    (I know you've said some less-than-stellar things about their first album)

    And I'm glad to hear they've improved their Sweet Spot-ish style songs. That was probably my least favorite from the otherwise awesome Sports. Anyway, gonna give it a listen now!

    Hmm, I think his sound is at least interesting. Definitely preferred to shitty "hip-pop" that dominates the charts nowadays, as old cheesey said, haha.

    But, I kinda lol'd at this interview:

    Doesn't seem to be the brightest bulb in the bunch.

    "Like a 'bitch' is a pregnant dog. That's a 'pregnant gold retriever'!" How clever!

    I think it sheds a little light on the situation though. He still seems young and immature, so he probably doesn't realize the repercussions of using words like "f*ggot" and "gay" pejoratively, that no matter how unintended his usage of those words were, they will always come off offensively to some people. I'm not excusing him at all. I'm just saying, I believe that's probably why.

    Best thing that I ever seen on Tv this days and Sheldon is a best character of all time

    False! Charlie from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is the best character!

    But, I really do like Sheldon.

    Does anyone here really dislike Leonard, though? I think he kind of drags the show down. Whiny and that fake voice the actor does is just annoying.

    té

    Japanese instrumental quartet, té, formed in Tokyo, Japan in 2004. The band quickly gained praise from critics and fans alike due to their energetic and inspirational live performances.

    I've only heard one album, but it's good stuff! If you're like me and you can't concentrate with music that has vocals, this is some good study music, haha.

    RED SUN

    RED SUN is an extremely intriguing musical act, I must say. You’re always bound to find odd quirks and surprises in any derivations of avant-garde music, and RED SUN’s world is one of a kind in that respect. They’ve got that bluesy vibe going on, sometimes loungy and relaxed, sometimes playful, and at other times melancholic and gloomy. They definitely like to play with electronic noises more than with synths, which gives their otherwise clear, unforeign to pop, melodies a more edgy and raw feel. Perhaps the greatest appeal of RED SUN Maiko’s unique smokey voice. She tends to keep a low tone and chops up the lines all the time rather than singing them straight, giving that sophisticated French chanteuse vibe at times.

    I think that description is a bit exaggerated, but definitely a great band, if you're looking for something relaxed, yet catchy.

    Haha, funny thread.

    I got glasses about 8 years ago, because my eyesight was garbage. I wore them (full-time!) for 6 years-ish and then tried out contacts. I made a slow progression alternating between glasses and contacts, until switching fully to contact lenses. Once you get over the grief of touching your eyes to put them in, they're more comfortable and you don't have to worry about smudging and stuff. And you have better peripheral vision, woo! But when I came to Germany for my study abroad, I kinda stopped wearing contacts and switched back to glasses! Now it's at the point where if I wore my contacts, everyone would say I look weird without my glasses, haha. Guess I'll switch back, when I return to America, lol.

    So I don't know really, I like them about equally!

    (And poor Kitty5, I remember when you posted in the shoutbox about sitting on your glasses!)

    I'm thinking about putting together a little indie mix specifically for the members that frequent this indie-thread.

    If enough people are interested, then I'll put one together. Just trying to spice this thread up a bit ;D

    Yes, please! :staru:

    How come I hated this earlier? (visuals were tacky but uuh uuh nvm)

    Fierte blaah blaah -the last of romance- is a masterpiece!

    Also: Never Cage is quite nice as well

    Kamijo's hard rock solos = meeeeeh.

    My briefly put opinion about them is here ^^

    (p.s. they make better ballads than Bearsighs)

    I agree! Fierte/ Never Cage are pretty good, but as you said, I skip the Kamijo solo Lareine. Have you tried Blue Romance, though? That's actually where my favorites are. And the Metamorphose single. Metamorphose/ Gerbe are awesome!
