Still loving the format for these! Can't say I have listened to the band at all, but since they are on Spotify that's easy enough to check out.

Well...that certainly was something.

Welcome to the 25 days of ChristMHas! Given that this is our 4th year doing this, I imagine most of you know the deal already. But for the sake of those of you who are new or just haven't checked out the list in previous years, let me give you a quick explanation. The MH official reviewers and the staff have gotten together in an attempt to create a list of our favorite releases from 2016 (excluding December). Every day of the month we will be posting a new album until we reach the number one release on our list on Christmas day. Each album will come along with a little blurb from different staff members explaining why the release made it on the list. Keep in mind that it is impossible to really create a list that captures all of the diverse tastes of the our individual staff members, so you will have to wait for the staff member's individual lists if you really want to know a certain member's favorites. Also, the list was limited to only Japanese albums. This post will serve as the "directory" with all of individual albums being featured in each reply post. The discussion for this will go in THIS THREAD. And without further ado, the list! …。【サイレンス】(Silence) - psycho:lens. ベル (belle) - 歌謡サスペンス劇場 (Kayou suspense gekijou) TAMTAM - Newpoesy クウチュウ戦 (koochewsen) - 超能力セレナーデ (Chounouryoku Serenade) 柏大輔 (KASHIWA Daisuke) - Program Music II BUMP OF CHICKEN - Butterflies Kiki Hitomi - Karma no Kusari 中島孝 (Nakashima Koh) - TAXIS Versailles - The Greatest Hits 2007-2016 MIYAVI - Fire Bird the god and death stars - after the addle apple DIV - EDR TOKYO chanty - 不完全な音楽 (Fukanzen na ongaku) abstracts - Hologram Royz - S.I.V.A.
