Just tried "Truth or Dare", it's nice indeed. Nothing beats her first mini-album though - them argentinian(?) / tango influences xD

The "Paradise Lost" teaser sounds sweet too btw!

Damn she (Ga-In) has released like a dozen mini albums since talk about S. lmao. That's the latest album I have listened to. I need to check out the recent stuff.

Cool!

I like the song, Zax always stands out.

I'm a Kenichi fanboy so it ain't a hard choice for me.

1. BUCK-TICK - 極東より愛を込めて
2. toe - 1,2,3,4
3. SuiseiNoboAz - ultra
4. BUCK-TICK - Taboo
5. The Dillinger Escape Plan - Chinese Whispers
6. Heaven in Her Arms - A Sublingual Tablet
7. Jess and the Ancient Ones - Astral Sabbat
8. Heavenstamp - Decadence
9. Converge - Coral Blue
10. 小南泰葉 - Soupy World

B-T and Suisei are my favorites here but I think I'm leaning more towards B-T this time.

Nooo

I hope Jun recovers quickly.

I did not see eastern youth coming. I'm positively surprised.

I'm cool with covers theme.

That's very cool artwork.

Nice~

LOSTAGE - 人間ロボット <3

Bald Kyo is back!

omg!

2015 is a very promising year music-wise =)

Unlike many, I actually enjoyed their latest album so I'm looking forward to this.

I don't mind if there's some engrish in songs. However it's very rare that I would enjoy entire songs with just engrish. I voted for 4th option.

For me, this is one of those bands that would really appeal to my in theory or just their idea/concept, but somehow I could barely listen to a whole album all the way through so far (I think I tried the last two?). They do have some killer tunes tho based on some of their PVs. Maybe it's just a matter of time and mood till they click with me cuz otherwise I can't rly think of anything annoying in their music (unlike some other indie-rawk bands).

I think there is still hope for you. I had pretty much the same problem with this band before. At first, the only song of theirs I really liked was dnim (from '09 EP Paraphilia). Then I listened to that EP and man, I was quite disappointed! It was around the same time that 2013's zeitgeist album was released and I tried that too and thought "boooring!" but I kept thinking that I really wanna like this band. And I have a history of at first disliking bands that later have become my favs, lmao. So I just kept trying (well I didn't try THAT MANY times but a few anyways) and at some point it just clicked. And now I like most of their stuff including their soft, dreamy songs. =)

Great news! Too bad we'll never get to listen to this EP.

The Novembers are truly a great band. All releases since 2011 have been nothing short of amazing.

side note: Matsumoto > Kobayashi :>

I hate plug! I can't believe how people there dare to play music that I don't listen to! It's MH's room so it should be 99% visual kei, but no, instead it's indie rock and k-pop and whatnot. And what's even worse... PLUG IS KILLIN' THE CHAT!

Looking forward to;

Flatbush Zombies - It's All A Matter Of Perspective

Ghostface Killah & BADBADNOTGOOD - Sour Soul

Kendrick Lamar - TBA

GZA's solo possibly?

^ Tamtam was on one of the lists, just a song though.

I really liked 呂布カルマ, I need his album :<

Nasty was mediocre but I'm glad that this new song is much better!

Just watched Whiplash myself too. Great movie.

That's soon, nice!

My top 5 tracks currently.

#1 - 想像のSecurity

The best Ling riffs are on this song imho.

#2 - I was music

I was music was the first Ling song I got addicted with so that brings some extra value.

#3 - a 7days wonder

that bass. nuff said.

#4 - a symmetry

I love the shoegaze-y wall of noise parts. And that chorus? Fantastic.

#5 - Missing ling

I'm a sucker for songs with just electric guitar+vocals, check, and build-ups to epic climax, check. Not to mention that the guitar-playing here is incredibly emotional.
