    Long songs are great! They give the band so much room for experimentation, and usually take their time building up the mood and feel of the song instead of just hurtling it at you.

    The longest I ever heard (and I think it's one of the longest ever) is one by a norwegian metal band, Green Carnation. The song's called "Light of Day, Day of Darkness", and it sums up to 60:06 mins. It's a one-song album, and their magnum opus so far!

    Usually most post-rock songs rank far above the 7 min mark, so I won't even list them here (I'd say anything by Mono is an instant win), but I gotta say 9GOATS BLACK OUT' Heaven and DEAD END's 冥合 really shine for me!

    (Oh, can't leave Opeth's The Drapery Falls out)

    They're playing together? That's nice!

    That "In the Dark" clip is really cool. I like the whole doll concept!

    Too bad the music isn't really cutting for me. I like the instrumentals, but the singer is just too calm for that kind of song. Maybe it just needs some time to grow on you, hmm.

    To be honest, I think Heart of Gold would sound better in an album.

    I actually agree with this even though I like it. and woah where have you been? I totally did a double take when I read the name. xD

    It's not that the song is bad. Take Diru singles, for example. Mostly they sound awesome as stand alone songs, but when put in an album, they feel kinda off. This one would work like that, but in a positive way, I think.

    Aww, I'm glad you still remember me. XD I never really went away. So much stuff happened in so many different ways I can't even start explaining. I sometimes came back for goodies, but never left a comment or what. Then, earlier this week, I though "Why not?" and here I am!

    Kyo's singing gets better every time. He just shines here!

    Even tho I'm a fan of metal, I think the album needs to grow on you a little bit before enjoying it fully.

    @Pretzels

    He used to do that back in time. He screams well, actually!

    To be honest, I think Heart of Gold would sound better in an album. It's just not that good stand-alone, but I think it'd mesh pretty fine with other songs.

    Also, funny how every light-hearted song must feature a skateboard. It came to the point that you know exactly what kind of song to expect when a clip has a skate. XD

    Really cool, huh. XD

    12012 - Mr.LIAR ~

    I love SECRET FESTIVAL too. <3

    But I wanted to focus on just a few otherwise it'd be too biased. : S

    Anyway, DREAM ARCH is GORGEOUS too.

    I have a crush for such kind of song. XD

    lynch., Duel Jewel and D'espairs Ray already did that, and all of them sounded really beautiful.

    EMPIRE OF THE LAGOON is like How about truth...: undeniable master-piece. ?

    So far, I think my favs are THE MOON, LAST TIME and... Mr.LIAR! I'm REALLY loving this song, it souds so unusual. XD Even for other J-Rock bands.. it reminds me of J's grunge works.

    12012 - LAST TIME ~

    But I'm surprised at how well SHINE matched the album as a whole. As a single it was kinda week, but it flows perfectly with the other songs. <3

    And my least fav is really 24HOURS. Not 'cause is a jazzy song, I don't have problems with that, but.. it just didn't work for me. Like Survival.

    But I can't help but love everything they make. ?

    As for me, I really love their harder stuff, specially Maggots, Mad Marble Hell Vision, Burial Applicant and Filth in the Beauty.

    But I also love their softer songs, like Calm Envy, D.L.N and Chizuru.

    My only problem with Gazette and the reason why I'm not a fan at all are the songs like Linda~Candydive pink heaven~, Regret and Psychedelic Heroine. :S

    Too bad the rain in brazilian's northeast is very thin and without thunders. I loved the strong thunderstorms I had in the south. ;_;

    NO WAI! o.o

    Hmmm' date=' not in my city.. and it's northeast too. But I can understand you, because the weather in my city is just crazy.... XD''''

    Well, I love the rain too. ^^

    Oh, and I don't like Gackt. I've always seen him as a japanese Sidney Magal (not that you'll understand what I mean XD). After watching to that "Wasurenai kara" live, I've decided I really don't like him.

    Oh, but "Vanilla" live is funny. I forced my friend to watch to it and I thought he was seriously going to kill me then. I wonder why. xD [/quote']

    ...Sidney Magal sounded really cool dubbing that fat penguin in Happy Feet. XD

    Dunno why, but somehow I like him. Not his music, but him. I mean, it's hilarious to see him acting, and his voice only helps it. XDD

    And nothing beats the pleasure of saying "CARALHO, SIDNEY MAGAL!" randomnly when he appears.

    But I still like Gackt 'cause he's one of the few japanese rockstars who do PVs with something else than the band playing with different angles and places (psh I only saw the PV for Returner and Redemption)

    Your city must be awesome then. Earlier this week I could see the buildings melting due to the heatness, and we're not in the hottest months yet. And it always rain here in the summer, but the rain is hot and it leaves the day even hotter than it was before.

    Gladly I live near the beach, or I'd burn everyday in downtown.

    Hey, I like Gackt too. XD

    The fact that most Gackt fans are screamy fangirls doesn't means that he can't put out epic songs like Deep Forest, Redemption or Returner.

    And I love the rain too. :]
