    I'm also worried they'll make it all a bit too sombre. They'd better not take out some of his most golden lines, such as "let's mosey".

    Haha agreed. Even Vincent cracks jokes. If they take all of the humour out of the game it just won't be the same anymore. 

     

    I also hope they have Barret swearing like a sailor like in the original. I loved how constantly irate he was 😂

    lmao, the way he sang "In the void" at 04:00 made me throw up in my mouth a little. The orchestrated arrangement could've been an interesting touch, but it was clearly done on a VERY tight budget. I'll check the other songs, maybe there's something do salvage there

    I didn't get past the opening without throwing up XD But on your fone recommendation I went and checked it out. How is his English worse?!

    I've listened to the gemini trio and was disappointed as fuck, they've butchered some of their best work ever, I couldn't even bother giving a chance to everything else

    Finally! I was waiting for a voice of dissent as everything has been so positive on here. 'Butchered' echoes my thoughts exactly. I listened to the Gemini trio and Velvet as they're some of my favourites and the new arrangements left me confused. Also why is Shou singing in such an over the top manner? I haven't listened to their newer stuff but is that what he does now? He sounds like he's trying way too hard to imitate himself. 

     

    *phew!*

    Surprised there isn't more of a buzz for this album! I've spun it quite a few times now and for a first album I think it's great! Like Chedoara it has its pros and cons but I think I actually regard both albums as equals. 

     

    And damn, that vocalist is good. Those high pitched screams are something else. 

     

    The only thing I really can't stand on the album is the guitar tone on some tracks. The sweeps end up sounding really ugly at times.

    At first I was okay with TIW but now I really hate it and never listen to it anymore, cutting songs down to 3 minutes in length and simplifying them isn't really Dir en grey to me. Arche was amazing

    Agree with everything you're saying here. I was so disappointed with TIW but Arche just gets better and better with each listen. It's no Uroboros but it's got some damn good tracks.

    Apparantly Aki’s voice is not that well nowadays and in the BLESS album there was barely any screaming... But I do love their songs and シオンremains my fav till now despite not having the screaming bits 

    Ahhhhh that makes sense :(

    It's pretty quiet on here! What are your thoughts on the band's output overall? I only had Near Equal until recently and wow, I was missing out on some amazing tracks. However I'm not convinced by the direction they're going in. Does anyone else feel the same? 😕

     

    Pre-Near Equal = Awesome. They're clearly finding their sound but this resulted in a lot of good experimentation. 

     

    Near Equal = A few decent tracks but otherwise meh. 

     

    Pre-Utopia = Lots of experimental, harsh tracks, and some of the strongest singles to date. 

     

    Utopia = Same as above. The title track was a bit meh but this was a huge step up from Near Equal. 

     

    Post-Utopia = Er...where did the screaming go? Most of the singles sound generic and even the B-sides seem to have lost their charm.
