Thanks for the preview, sounds pretty kickass! And LOL@the very limited single. xD

Yep, they updated their homepage: new tour in October, and new single called # in the summer!

^ Yep, can't wait! By the way, the new digital single (song) will be called I'm the Best, and will be released on June 24th.

It kinda reminds me of Hageshisa, but more colourful/varied/awesome.

Wow not bad. Eventhough their music makes me slowly fall asleep in every song after 4 minutes. xD

Sorry for the double-post, but here's tonight's setlist. It seems they played two new songs! 01. Haikara-satsubatsu-haiso-zessan 02. Heddo 03. Mahoraba Blues 04. Machina 05. Horrorshow!

While I was happy and stuff when they got back together and made that album and mini,... ...actually now, THIS.

Interesting...

Cool!

I see quite a bunch of ex-VANESSA members there! Looking forward to hearing their music.

Posted this a few minutes ago but the forum ate it somehow... xD If any Europeans are interested... (they're also releasing a best-of CD+DVD)

-ugFcPSV8fE Halo teaser. Awesomeness. If I understood it correctly, the MV will be for another song though, called Tell Them (which they are shown filming in the beginning of this teaser video). I have a feeling this mini is gonna be pretty kickass.

What a boring video for such a beautiful song. Oh well, it wasn't too bad.

This. New sample sounds awesome to me. ^^

I like to listen to them from time to time, but not something I can always listen to. xD I don't really like their very old stuff (when they were more "regular thrash"-like), but the other albums are more or less equally okay for me.

Cool/solid band. My fave releases are the first 3 albums and Diamond Eyes. The others ain't bad either though.

It's connected to one of his vocal cords, there's some muscle problem there (like the muscle cannot function properly), so there are times when he can't speak/sing at all ...at least that's what I remember from a translated interview. edit: here's the translation; he talks about his illness(es) in the beginning

Nice covers, I like the limited ed's infinitely better though.

^ Well since they're pretty much only periodically active anyways I guess they thought they'd keep the possibility of future albums/tours together. Really curious about that coming new album btw.

Sad but understandable I guess (if I get it right, they say they don't want to do it half-assed because of Hizumi's condition which won't get better anytime soon). I'm really glad I could see them once in concert. I will miss them.

It seems Kenichi said in a recent Ongaku no hito interview that the band changed their mind, and won't break up after all. LOL close call.

THIS. Didn't really care much for their latest stuff.

If all the album will have that sound/mixing style (kinda like the clean but wholesome-sounding Hageshisa...), then I'll be happy as can be. Finally, something with a punch!

That's Tsumi to kisei, which is basically a reworked/rearranged/rerecorded version of Tsumi to batsu.
