enyx 903 Posted July 11, 2015 I knew they weren't going to go a year without releasing something, though my guess is that this one may be an EP. 1 doombox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CAT5 9075 Posted October 12, 2015 Finally got a chance to really sink my teeth into 'Elegance'. (nevermind my avatar), and it's been an incredibly blissful listen. I've had it on repeat on foobar for a while now, although I accidentally failed to drag the 6th song on to the playlist. Though that was kind of fortuitous because in doing so, I realized all the more how well this EP flows. This isn't to take away from track 6 - I like it, and it's been growing on me - but tracks 1-5 on repeat sound like a never-ending dream. ; ) 1 Chi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's there to subvert your expectations. Personally I really like it as an ender in this context, though as a standalone track it's nothing special. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Personally I really like it as an ender in this context, though as a standalone track it's nothing special. Oh no, I definitely agree! I think it works really well either way! Like I mentioned to , I think it feels like a "to be continued", and just leaves you wanting more. Perhaps it's a precursor to the next release? It actually reminds me of "Louder Than War (2019)" a bit. And funnily enough, both tracks took a while to grown on me. I'm enjoying it the more I listen, though!

Chi 2624 Posted October 12, 2015 Elegance is soooo relaxing and i loved it it may not contain a lot of variety if compared to the 5th album, but everything flows really well and it's easy to the ears, so i have 0 complaints about it 1 CAT5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pretsy 1343 Posted October 12, 2015 Would've been very great mini (?) if it wasn't for the climax-killing ending (yup, it still doesn't sound like a legit closer to me - it's decent but certainly not the one to finish the album). Ps. just to clarify what I really dig: "Gift" is a 5/5 record to me . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evenor 1655 Posted October 13, 2015 So does Yusuke actually sing "I scream you scream we all scream for ice cream" in 裸のミンク or any I just mishearing stuff? I personally love きれいな海へ off their latest release! 1 enyx reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I personally love きれいな海へ off their latest release! I am ABSOLUTELY hearing that as well Then again, I'm pretty positive he says "Thank you and fuck you" in "Harem" on GIFT! 1 evenor reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plastic_rainbow 2162 Posted October 17, 2015 For Elegance, I mainly like every other song beginning with クララ. So basically, I like the first two early released tracks and the first track. The other three tracks are okay, but nothing that will really stick with me. It's a really dreamy mini though, and super nice to listen through, especially with that first opening track~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nokitron 8 Posted October 24, 2015 Anyone realize that guitar loop in the song Rhapsody in Beauty is actually a Yaruse Nakio の Beat's delayed riff? lol 2 CAT5 and enyx reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

enyx 903 Posted December 13, 2015 Dysphoria is such a cool song, definitely one of the standouts from their pre-2011 discography. I was rewatching the PV for きれいな海へ again yesterday and I absolutely love how the two videos sync together when played at the same time. Probably my favourite PV released this year. 2 Chi and CAT5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
