Ok, let's be fair: METEMPSYCHOSIS is a banger, but not as good as I was anticipating. If you take out from the equation those 3-4 tracks that stand out the most, the rest of the album sounds pretty much the same throughout its entirety. I don't mean to say it is a boring album, but it does get repetitive if you don't focus on its nuances - I found myself playing it in the background without paying attention and it was just... there?
Also I didn't really like most of the re-recordings: I despise it when the structure of the song is heavily changed. I would've really preferred a higher quality recording, not a complete rehash.- Show previous comments 1 more

I agree that a majority of the retakes don't quite stand up to the originals, but it's not like we can't just listen to the original any time instead. I do wish they hadn't changed up the composition so much on the older tracks though, a cleaner take of The Dead Sea and Mistake would have been awesome. I'm interested to see how Hunger turns out on the White edition.

I feel like Kagami is the one who did vocal melody in the original imitation so he just let the new members deconstruct and rebuild on it and while I like some remade parts (drum machine in the 2nd half goes in lbr), it just doesn't have the same cohesion anymore.
everything else is upgrade for me, the album itself is a bit too straightforward, like they intentionally didn't deviate too much with song stucture. even with that, some songs sound way more VK than I expected from DXCR.
I'm very curious what their next single is going to sound like now.

Are we really sure Lime says "causes serious side effects" right before STEROID's chorus? I don't even think he says something at all, just random screams... help pl0x it's driving me nuts

I can definitely hear the side effects part but the cause serious part is pretty hard to pick ip

I woke up with a life-or-death dilemma: did FAR EAST DIZAIN ever publish INHALE's PV on one of their releases or is it just on YouTube? I'd look for answers myself but their OHP is down...
-
No its only on youtube to my knowledge

Someone put Leda in jail... the guitar shredding in MoG is criminal

Totally agree, and Ryo is a fitting choice with the songs proposed in the EP. Guessing how Cygnus Lake will be like... 🙂

Sooo... More than a week passed since GoT's finale and I still can't get over last season's shitty writing.
It was bad.
It was really fucking bad.

Idk, I was probably expecting more from JILUKA's album... Too many high expectations, I need to stop listening to previews. 😛
-
I personally needed about 3-4 spins to fully get into it, but that's not the album's fault, it's just me needing that with every new release by any band haha
