Visual-Kei MUNIMUNI live album, DVD & mini album release & member changes

[HotaruFilth 397]

Looks like Ikebukuro Chop. They could have done a little more effort for their first (?) PV xD But it's still ok.

I'm liking the song and it makes me excited for the new mini album. But there's so many things that could've made this PV better. Especially their first PV!

-16:9 letterboxed into video that was uploaded as 480p 4:3?!? I've not even sure if any software out there really does this by accident anymore. You really have to go out of your way to make the software export at SD size now. 1080p would make this simple performance video feel at least a little more produced.

-More cutting of angles, The set could feel like alot more with twice as many cuts.

-More motion graphics. Incorporating the band's amazing flyer design (which I think is done by Canou) would give some other quality to the video.

 

btw, the band posted liner notes to the album:

Do I see there that Canou says they'll try to finish and record "THE DOGUU ALBUM" later this year too? Would be amazing.

 

Let's just hope the band lineup stays intact till then, lolol.

[carddass 273]

Yes, he did mention that he would try and finish the Doguu album. However at this point I can't tell if he's being serious or not.

I'm sure the revenue generated by the latest mini album will go into the doguu album. 

 

It is a good sign that two of the songs from A_Kill_A were originally composed with previously lineups. I had thought he might shelf those songs because they might've been composed by a former member.

well venue/one located pvs are never goos, always boring.

mm, I kinda like this song didn't know this band also made this kind of music... vocalist voice also sounds hella differenr as i remember it.

[TetsuAkira 289]

I used to have one of their older singles and I loved it. This sounds so different. Still sick, just different. Will be keeping an eye on them.

^ Lol, we are one.

MUNIMUNI / Calmando Qual / THE VELVET will hold their 3-man live "ムニちゃん記念日-2016-" at Ikebukuro CHOP at 2016/06/02

[Jigsaw9 6783]

Just so we could cry for za moonies a lil' bit more, I collected the potential tracks for (the hopefully upcoming) "THE DOGUU ALBUM", or at least these are the songs that don't have official studio versions at this point, but were played live at the band's gigs in the past year:

 

HAYABIKI

STRANGE DAYS

THE DOGUU SONG*

BOYS*

知らないの (Shiranaino)

THE ANIME SONG

Underneath the shadow -THE SHADOW 2-*

IN MY HEAD

the ghost song*

ラヴバラード (Love Ballad)

 

The asterisks indicate that the given track was already featured in a live version on the band's live album / DVD. Also, I guess the song titles are subject to change... btw there's a track called "Nioi punpun" also appears in some setlists, but that just might be how the band refers to their old song "Nioi" nowadays?

[Trombe 22025]

TOSHI(所沢)(ex-MUNIMUNI):

[Jigsaw9 6783]

SPEECIES & L.TB in da house! Gotta love the lineup for the recent gigs, wish I was there~ ;w;

[carddass 273]

I just received A_Kills_A in the mail the other day and I have to say I'm quite pleased. After so long without a proper studio recording, I thought maybe something might have gotten lost with the personnel changes. While not one track specifically blew me away like the title tracks for Fufuu, He and magaru sekai did, overall the songs are catchy and consistent and are definitely 100% munimuni.

Big Money maybe surprised me the most. It's their most upbeat track since Lovelovelove and it has that 90's visual kei poppy quality.

 

Now we wait for the doguu album! Which according to the liner notes of A_KIlls_A is 80% done.

 

[carddass 273]

A new song 'New Order Love Song' was just announced via lyrics published in their mailing list that we might get to hear in a couple of years!
And if you couldn't get enough of that blatant reference, there's also a Bauhaus one mixed in there too:

 

 ◎みんなで歌おう！

 [ニューオーダーラブソング](加納による新しい曲)

 

 今はムーンライト。

 ジキル＆ハイド、「魔方陣」無に間に・・・。

 

 深々とした気配。

 宇宙のレイアウト。

 明暗、何れは・・・、

 愛しTELL----なんてYEAH！！！

 

 やがてニューオーダーラブソング。

 思い出を湯船に。

 聡明なる真相。

 青白い肉のサイン。

 

 恐らく、天使降臨。

 快楽の坩堝に。

 罪業、その妄想。禁断。

 仮面と靴の音。

 

 Who killed Mr. Moonlight?

 I miss you.

 Behind the mask.

 I get bored, I do get bored.

 

 You are mine.

 You are mine.

Damnnnn, why live-only? ;w;

 

Also, DOGUU ALBUM pls.

[carddass 273]

Exactly, I don't quit get their strategy. The live DVD was briefly mentioned in their e-mail newsletter the day before and it hardly has any presence on the website. It's like he / they are trying not to promote their own work! And only selling it at lives really limits the distribution. Maybe they're trying to drive ticket sales?

Now I have to start lurking on Yahoo Japan auctions which I haven't done in forever.

And forget the Doguu album, they should just release a proper 10 or 12 track album now!

[carddass 273]

munimuni will be performing live tomorrow 1/24/2017 20:00/12pm Japan time and it will be broadcasted over the web via niconico.

You have to purchase a ticket in order to watch it.  It only costs 324 yen and they take foreign credit cards last time I ordered a show from them. Apparently it's not the full band as the guitarist and bassist will not be there and support members will perform.

Sometimes the lives are available for 1 week after the show and then deleted forever. I hope they do make it available for longer because I won't be to catch it live tomorrow because I'll be at work!

THE DOGUU ALBUM will be released somewhere in 2017.

(or it will not)

2017/01/26 is just another "pray for release" live xD

 

 

Edited January 24, 2017 by HotaruFilth

[carddass 273]

Despite all the hype and delays, I'm actually believing this will be the year of the doguu! They have enough songs for a full album even.

I just tried purchasing the live, it's available for 1 week from today, and it seems they implemented a region block on credit cards outside of Japan so I'm unable to purchase and watch it. I've purchased from them long ago with no problem so this is a major bummer. Is anyone able to get through the pay-wall and  watch this live and can rip it?

 

Also, Here's a promotional video and gift on nico's site:
