Elazmus 1873 Posted December 1, 2014 I'm not a musician, but the way I hear it, the guitar in Raven is meant to be choppy, uneven tapping along with the drums to support the idea of the song "rapid twitching and darting" the way a bird appears to do (As Tsuzuku physically emulates in the video) When you say that the vocals don't sound like they were trying, do you mean the verse or the chorus? I've never been really impressed with the chorus myself, but is it so bad for the vocals not to be copied and pasted where the lyrics are the same? Personally I would rather hear the same line sung differently from earlier in the song, but maybe I misunderstood you ? 2 Sakura Seven and Seimeisen reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beni 2149 Posted December 1, 2014 I must admit, MEJIBRAY's ballads are my favourite tracks by them. EMILY and Anemone are too beautiful. 2 JukaForever and Ada Suilen reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aferni 2381 Posted December 2, 2014 That's gotta be the most pessimistic comment in the entire thread lol. B-B-B-B-Bring on the Meji-Rage. WOW What an embarrassing thing to say "out loud" lol Like GANGSTA i'm sure this album will have a minimum of decent tracks and then the rest will stink like a musky ballsack.

Elazmus 1873 Posted December 2, 2014 But WHY are you sure of that lol? You can be sure of whatever you like, just smells kind of dismissive from here lol, I see no reason to draw parallels to GANGSTA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aferni 2381 Posted December 2, 2014 But WHY are you sure of that lol? You can be sure of whatever you like, just smells kind of dismissive from here lol, I see no reason to draw parallels to GANGSTA Because mostly, Mejibray's recent releases have decreased in quality. (In my shit opinion) I hate to be so pessimistic but, alot of these previews dis-interest me except two of them. Just like sadie's GANGSTA did. Maybe this album will be good, maybe it won't Idk but what I do know is i'll atleast give it a try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elazmus 1873 Posted December 2, 2014 Well that's what counts really. pessimism has it's place and if the last single is a fair indication then there is definitely cause for concern.. I'm prepared for the album to be bad, TBB saw to that much lol. I'm also prepared for it to be good. I'm prepared for it to be trashy and ridiculous, I'm prepared to laugh at it somewhat, and I'm prepared for it to make me feel something more than that too. At the end of the day, it could make me feel nothing at all lol! 1 Aferni reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kyoselflove 2680 Posted December 2, 2014 I loved TBB and I am excited for this album, I think it's going to be amazing. Will probably play it on repeat for months straight lol. 1 Yukimoto reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Difference with GANGSTA is that it actually provided some kind of freshness and originality, while Mejibray still has yet to do so. These previews are an exact image of this.Correction: Sadie as a whole (despite their up and downs) provide what MEJIBRAY seem to still lack which is originality and freshness and these previews are a replica of this.

Seimeisen 4406 Posted December 2, 2014 Difference with GANGSTA is that it actually provided some kind of freshness and originalityThat is definitely an unpopular opinion here, and he doesn't seem to agree with it. Anyway, back on topic, I actually really like Theatrical Blue-black, I was totally psyched for that song when the video was first posted, I even enjoyed the apathetic BI"name"JIKA to an extent, but was not fond of HATE. I also LOVE RAVEN, I think Echo is a pretty nice song, and those previews posted were pretty cool. I'm not expecting this album to be groundbreaking, at the very least I am expecting this album to be decent, if not really cool! Though I'm not expecting ground to be broken, I am still very much looking forward to this album because I think MEJIBRAY is long overdue for a second album. They've released enough singles since 2012 for a double album (b-sides included), and as someone who is not really into singles, that annoyed me! Even just the singles since MESSIAH.bat alone could have been a full album. And for the sake of comparing this album release to GANGSTA: As mentioned, MEJIBRAY has been due for a new full-length album for quite some time. Sadie, on the other hand, should take a break from releasing full-length albums. 2 suzura and Ro plz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
