enyx 903 Posted March 11, 2015 I was digging that spot until 1:11. I don't have any issue with electronic music per se but I don't think the GazettE have done anything particularly interesting with it in their last three albums either. I was hoping they'd have moved on from it but that teaser suggests otherwise. Live song snippet sounds okay but its way too short and in too low quality to make any judgements. 1 lichtlune reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XEL_PERPLEXITY 37 Posted March 11, 2015 Woah, sounds and looks cool. I actually love when they mess around with electronics, so I'm all for it~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kasupaa 22 Posted March 11, 2015 Always exciting to hear new stuff from Gaze, but it has been a steady road downwards after Stacked Rubbish and DIM really..... There have been the good moments, but overall Gazette has lost something they had in the olden days, I'm afraid 1 doombox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sai 868 Posted March 11, 2015 The electronics are not the problem, they never were. The problem lies in what you do with them. There are plenty of bands who make this kind of stuff work wonderfully, with a good balance between vocals/instruments and electronic elements. So I don't think that electronics immediately equals "another DIVISION" or any of the sort, it's just waiting if they've finally improved on how to use them. 4 relentless, Zeus, enyx and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretsy 1343 Posted March 11, 2015 Those electronics at least sound a bit better than their earlier stock wubs, e.g. those tracks where Ruki had a "bigger" hand in production than his bud TeddyLoid and so on (some DIVISION SEs...) Also, speaking of tour merch: I usually don't take anything that goes inside Ruki's usual 'buzzword lexicon' ("RAD", "VENT" etc.) on his Black Moral stuff literally, but https://instagram.com/p/0B6v57QOfB/?modal=true Sound: Industrial D'n'B Grunge Heavy Dark Age ...I don't know about you, community but my guess would be him actually hinting at their current, ~auditory~ (HA!) direction?

nekkichi 6043 Posted March 11, 2015 derangement was my most fav. track of them in many years - with autotune and whatnot, so i'm here for this tbh arthistory101-kei is real Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elazmus 1873 Posted March 11, 2015 UHH can I fucking LIVE in this trailer? Beautiful, it feels like something actually inspirational! Instead of just the usual drive to be on the cutting edge digital coolness All of the Imagery is excellent I really like the shot of the waves on the shore with the torches.. even the one with the chick whipping her hair back was pretty tasteful and cool (if kind of unfitting -- being something I'd expect from inside beast) This is kind of a dream teaser as far as im concerned. Never really imagined we'd be looking at GazettE looming around abandoned churches and such 1 kyoselflove reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I don't think that electronics immediately equals "another DIVISION" or any of the sort, it's just waiting if they've finally improved on how to use them. Yep, that's basically what I was trying to get at in my post as well. So far their attempts at incorporating electronic elements into their sound seem to have mostly taken the form of writing generic archetypical GazettE songs and then throwing random electronic sounds over the top of them in a rather superficial way. If they're going to continue with the electronic stuff on DOGMA, then I really hope they change their approach somewhat. 1 sai reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bonsaijodelfisch 328 Posted March 11, 2015 if the album is only half as exciting as that trailer it's gonna be a huge step up. here's to being hyped again (after for the last three times swearing to completely give up on this band...) 1 doombox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doombox 4421 Posted March 11, 2015 I'm down for this if they are taking their music down this road as well and it's not just a visual project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretsy 1343 Posted March 11, 2015 Just checked live reports and most attendees happen to agree with general thoughts around here (even after listening to the whole performance) E.g. 2ch (I can link if someone's skeptic tho) already hinted that the whole song was VERY DIM-influenced and was somewhat reminiscent of LEECH (with lots of shouting/screaming w/ Aoi supporting Ruki in that ALONE) except with mellower and more melodic passages (there was even a piano break?) 1 Elazmus reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
