Well that sucks.

Was just listening to Grave Pleasures' (f.k.a Beastmilk) today and wondering when will they release something new and then I see this, haha.
I'm glad this is sounding a lot more similar to Climax than anything on Dreamcrash.

@fitear1590 Great review! I enjoy your style of reviewing. I don't agree with all your opinions but I think I would give it the same score you did.
My expectations for this album were very high, like they always are with THE NOVEMBERS releases and I was a bit disappointed if I'm being honest. And it's still one of the best J-albums released this year so that's saying something about the quality of their music.
Some notes about the album / songs:
- 1000 Years is like a poor man's version of Blood Music.1985.
- Kobayashi's vocals on 愛はなけなし (What Little Love) make me think that he would be a great nagoya kei vocalist.
- I think @CAT5 put it well with there being no notable "UMMPPH!" moments that make you revisit the songs time after time. For me moments like these are the first chorus of Rhapsody in beauty with the siren guitar and Kobayashi's high notes interlocking, the killer riff starting at 1:30 in Wire (Fahrenheit 154), the chorus of 彼岸で散る青 (Jigan de chiru ao). There were no moments on "Hallelujah" where I thought "holy shit that's amazing!"
- My favorite songs after multiple listens: Black Rainbow, What Little Love, Just Going Far. That guitar riff in Just Going Far's "chorus" is fantastic!
And for lolz: 1. (To) melt into, 2. Zeitgeist, 3. Rhapsody in beauty, 4. Hallelujah

I'm also cool with plug and halloween-ish songs.

I always associated (Japanese) city pop with these bands with young male members with trendy clothes, colorful caps or beanies and guitar straps adjusted a bit too tight. And chill chunez.
jk but not rly
...So bands that have already been mentioned like yogee new waves, the fin., never young beach (notice the marine theme, maybe it should be sea pop? beach pop?)
I have to agree with the blog post on city pop being more about the certain vibe and aesthetic rather than a similar sound.

I saw a troll talk about it on last.fm, back in 2012.

I like facial hair. And it's manly and sexy. I prefer it a bit shorter but long ass beards can suit some people. Shaved faces bore me.
I have a facial hair myself because I think I look better with it.
This poll makes me wary to ever post in the show yourself topic, though. xD

@beni lovefilm sounds pretty cool, I like the mood of the song!
@emmny that ggg song is good, I'm glad they have a full band now! I was a bit afraid to check the single since I didn't enjoy that MA&MA&MA thing, but I will check it now!
@togz nice pick from THE NOVEMBERS!
@CAT5 六月ノ雨ニ討タレテ is one of my favorites on alt of the society's album! and ZA FEEDO seems interesting~!

I'm sure someone will mention Downy, The Novembers, Buck-Tick etc. so I won't talk about them.
1. Oathbreaker - Rheia
Oathbreaker is a blackened hardcore band from Belgium and this is their third album. I've been a fan since the beginning so obviously I had high hopes for this album.
One of the most noticeable differences compared to earlier albums is the increased amount of clean vocals which is a welcome addition. There is nothing wrong with
the screaming, but vocalist Caro, who is female by the way, has a nice voice so I'm glad to hear it more. The clean vocal melodies on Rheia can be a bit dull at some times, though.
2. Isaiah Rashad - The Sun's Tirade
I've been waiting for this album for a quite long time. The Sun's Tirade is an album with chill production and Isaiah's great flow.
3. Every Time I Die - Low Teens
I've also been a Every Time I Die fan for a loooong time and I can't believe it's already been 2 years since their last album. 2014's From Parts Unknown was probably ETID's most chaotic album but this time around they have made a rock-oriented album and I'm sure that will piss some people off but I'm more than happy. The thing I love the most about Every Time I Die is their grooviness. Expect southern rock riffage, profound lyrics and great vocals.

They describe their music as "post-rock hip-hop". Imagine if Tha Boss from Tha Blue Herb joined a post-rock/screamo band! And he's got a better flow than many ordinary Japanese rappers do.
