Deflina Ma'riage, and recently GREGORY comes to mind.

I might go. Will see after the MUCC concert. xD

Sweet, Budapest here I come! I wouldn't care if only for their last album, but I heard they're a great live band.

Aliene Maφriage - 夜の舞踏会～ル・ソワレ

- KYOKUTOU GIRL FRIEND - Katte ni shiyagare

- munimuni - MAGICAL MOONIES

Adding to the list:

- BUCK-TICK - RAZZLE DAZZLE

- HER NAME IN BLOOD - Decadence

Her Name In Blood - Confusion

...whoah.

The preview sounds okay so far!

雅-MIYAVI- - UNBREAKABLE

So what are your opinions on the new B-T album?

Personally, I really like it. To me it's a bit like if they mixed the rock'n'roll style of Tenshi no Revolver with the futuristic sounds of Mona Lisa Overdrive, but also it has some innovations, and even hints to their past (electronica influenced) styles.

A song-by-song review would be a bit long here, so just some impressions:

- parts of the intro reminded me of The Simpsons theme, dunno why

- lots of different moods, but still a unity of sound

- not a big fan of the new Dokudanjou Beauty (I just don't like those female vocals)

- the poppy/dancey songs are awesome!!!

- Atsushi has some really cool vocals, especially choruses on this album (Gekka reijin, Solaris, Hamushi no you ni)

- I love the Imai/Atsushi double vocals in TANGO Swanka!

- I feel that tracks 9; 10; 13 could've been left off; they just bore me/pass me by

I'd give it a strong 7.5/10; good job!

so whats going to happen with the live dvd there suppose to releasing at the end of the year?

I guess they're releasing that according to schedule. It's only that the band is taking a break, that's all.

Awesome!!!

sounds good to me. some other bands should really think about doing the same!

Good luck for them and let's all look forward to new releases in the future!

My thoughts/opinion exactly!

Coooool!!!

^ Thanks for the tracklist! I'm looking forward to the album. Is there a release date yet? Last time I heard it would be out "sometime in December" (with a release party on 24th).

edit: Nevermind, just read the release date is Dec.15. XD

Also, this seems to be the cover if I'm not mistaken:

Not doing a song-by-song review (too tired, lol) but I gotta admit the new album is pretty badass. I was a bit afraid after reading some reactions, but Meev didn't let me down. Yeah, there's some weird/sloppy/uninspired stuff, but for that there's also an equal amount of amazing songs! I love the whole gritty/earthy sound and atmosphere of the album, how the guitar and the rhythm-play is at the forefront.

Standout tracks for me (besides the already known ones): I LOVE YOU,...; MOON; SHELTER; FUTURISTIC LOVE.

This release gets a strong 7/10 from me. Gonna listen to this one tons more!!!

The Dead Weather - Blue Blood Blues

LOL, totally saw this coming! ...I might buy it.

Oh great, now there's virtually no active band at U-C that I'm even remotely interested in, lol.

I hope they come back sometime, in some form.

btw it's HILARIOUS how hard he's trying to get to the US market now.

To my knowledge, the Meev collaboration version is only on the Japanese version of the album/single/whatever. At least from what I've read some time ago (I don't really keep track of this collab xD).

btw "PLEDGE" is ballad

Do not want.

Maru is always awesome.

King Diamond - The Invisible Guests

Bridge to Solace - Will You Rewrite History With Me?

the 2 new songs are from the live-only single that was sold this summer. So no news songs this time

LOL okay. :lol:

That looks like 4 new songs to me...two of which are instrumental fillers D:

Actually, those instrumental tracks have been released before too...so it's like 2 new songs (tracks 3 and 9), lol.
