The preview sounds pretty fun! I also enjoyed their previous digital single, even tho it had a more reserved sound.

Interesting! Keeping my fingers crossed that it will be somewhat good at least (always a bit risky when legends record new stuff after a long period of not releasing new material).

Heck yeah, this is absolutely insane. Great video & audio, top-notch performance.

Loveeeee the preview of the new song! Real curious to find out what the Shuuji-composed track sounds like as well (and ofc the other tunes).

Okay, now THIS is what I'm talking about!!

Much better music vid than the first one. Song choice is A+ too.

Not sure if this fits in here (I don't listen to dungeon synth often), but I just randomly came across it and it sounds kickass:

Kinda like doomy atmospheric black metal, but done in a chiptune-like arrangement? Sort of. Pretty cool mood.

Wow, graphic design really is his passion.

Currently holds 100% on RT with 62 reviews as well, which is pretty damn good for a movie like this.

I am convinced this is some elaborate trolling, lol. I tried to watch the movie last night, but gave up a bit after halftime, it just wasn't doing anything for me. I skipped into it for a few minutes afterwards but it was just all so lame-looking and weak... Also, seemed very much jumpscare-heavy, which I absolutely hate. Guess this just wasn't for me.

I've had a bit more time to digest the album now, overall I'm quite pleased with it. It has small nods to Manson's previous stuff but not in an in-your-face annoying way, only certain motives for a few seconds, which I thought was neat. The tracks flow together extremely well too, making for a pretty seamless listening experience. He hit the nail on the head when he described it as "a wax museum of [his] thoughts".

I enjoyed most of the songs too, or at least I can appreciate how there's no sore thumb among them. I'm not too crazy about the title track and "Paint You with My Love" but everything else is either good or great. The acoustic bonus tracks are kinda lame tho, since they chose the two songs that were already heavily unplugged-sounding so it doesn't really make any difference this way... But that's my only "major issue", lol.

@Bear

Sounds good! To be honest when I first heard of this movie I thought it would be shit, so immediately forgot about it, lol. But might check it out later.

NICE. Can't wait to receive that pinky boi in the mail.

Hmmm not bad!

Sucks to hear that... Hopefully they manage to revive themselves later (and until then write some new tunes, cuz tbh I can't even remember when they last released a proper standalone record).

I'll be waiting patiently.

Another track that seems to be slightly better than those demos they started out with, nice!

Giving me later-era D'espa vibes a bit.

Currently Mako from deadman. ♥

Full album trailer now up with samples of all the songs~

Don't wanna jinx it, but so far this sounds like another highpoint in B-T's discography for me (after "Arui wa Anarchy").

Music-wise this is pretty solid, but Yomi just brings it down so much, holy fuck.... the chorus is legit ruined by him, hard to listen to.

Kra just made a huge chunk of their singles, mini albums and albums available at OTOTOY (not all of their discography but it's still a mighty big assortment of releases), in case anyone wants to buy some in lossless.

Here's their artist page: https://ototoy.jp/_/default/a/805578

@Bear Not bad! I'm not really in the mood for this type of thrashin' these days but it was okay for a spin.

Speaking of, I've just been listening to the new Skeletal Remains album for the first time today, solid stuff as expected! Also seems like I'm spinning a lot of old Jungle Rot albums lately, just can't get enough of that straightforward caveman-ish death metal, lol.

I didn't expect them to sound like old MUCC but..........ok.

They said they could ship to me again and I've placed my order.
So depending on which country you're in, they might be able to ship to you again.

Oh that's awesome, thanks for the info! I'll shoot them a mail later about Hungary (I've been ordering stuff from Japan in the past few weeks without issues so hopefully it'll be alright with the Zoisite guys too).

LOL, they keep us in suspense with the availability of the CD I see...

I'll have to wait until I can buy a copy, hopefully they'll have them in stock for a few more weeks.

My prayers have been answered!

HEEEEIYAAAIYOIYAIYOIYAIYAAAAAAaaaaa

Hey guys, what are your thoughts on the new album so far? I still have to listen to it a couple of times, but overall it's lookin' pretty positive.
