After listening to the album, its definitely helios/silk tree part 2. I'm really happy with this new direction compared to the last album. Its what I loved about major-era baroque in the first place, Kei's softer guitar melodies mixed in with ambient electronics with Ryo's dream-like voice.

FTFY

I'm enjoying all the secret stuff they've been doing the past month or so. Kept my interest. I'm just hoping this new concept has a new sound and style. If Ryo and Kei are going to continue with the baroque name, they must step it up a notch.

Thank god this is only a temporary break. So many good bands have called it quit as of recently and I love Tenten's projects. This band is so good. I hope to see many more releases from them.

a dick.
on your chest.
pretty edgy if you ask me.

As reported on MUFON:
 
 

I'm hyped

whoop whoop

They've pleased me the last couple albums so I'll check this out.

ITS SO WEIRD HEARING ANTI POP BEING RECENTLY PLAYED. UGH.
IM IN HIGH SCHOOL AGAIN.

This seems to be relevant to this thread:
 
 
Looks like there is still some life in last.fm, because as a subscriber I recently got in invite to check out the beta version of the upcoming last.fm site.
If you're interested, here's some screenshots:
 
 
New profile page:

 
 
New artist page:

 
Since this is a beta and a lot of things are still very rudimentary/non-existing, I will reserve judgement on the design for now, like the round profile images or the "track name - artist name" format... but yeah, there still seems to be some developement going on.
 
There's a Followers/Following tab on the profile page, so I guess they want to put more emphasis on the social-networking aspect again? Apparently the "Following" tab is just everyone of my last.fm friends, while the "Followers" are just my 10 most recent ones... presumably the ones I got since the beta started. Doesn't make much sense, but eh... it's a beta.
 
The radio/stream function is basically just an embedded Spotify, so that's probably as deep as that feature goes.
