carddass 273 Posted November 13, 2015 I'm glad it's finally coming out. They had announced about 5 or 6 years ago when they first returned that they were recording a new album but the years came and went with no new updates. Time to go on a Madame Edwarda listening bender as I figure out how to order from the website. 1 Jigsaw9 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jigsaw9 6783 Posted November 13, 2015 Random live videos of the band from last year: They still rockin' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lestat 2167 Posted November 13, 2015 ^ I listened to that video of Lorelei yesterday and I genuinely wonder if it's not simply a recording they're playing. The sound is very clear for what appears to be a mediocre video-recording system and the similarities to the album version is too great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted November 13, 2015 ^ It looks and sounds pretty much live to me, from the guitars through the drums all to the vocals. Just a very good-quality video recording imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lestat 2167 Posted November 13, 2015 Then that means Zin is absolutely insane live. 1 Jigsaw9 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carddass 273 Posted November 16, 2015 They simply added soundboard quality audio to their subpar video. I hadn't seen these clips and Zin and the band sound really amazing still, like nothing has changed technically in the last 30 years. And I applaud their choice of using SBD audio as too few Japanese bands make any attempt at sharing live concert video, let alone live video with good audio, on youtube. Unless of course they simply tease a clip to sell a DVD. Low quality audio will simply make the best looking video feel like garbage to a viewer. However the opposite can't be said as most people have come to expect / accept low quality video sources and can look past pixelated poorly encoded sources if there's audibly good sound. And here's another live clip which is listenable once I did some simple normalizing and duplication of the left audio channel to give a balanced sound. I might have done some noise reduction too, don't remember: Madame Edwarda 1984 - Tokyo Battle Days https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9EQDhJ7dXc Madame Edwarda 1984 - Tokyo Battle Days - Audio rip 'Remastered': https://mega.nz/#!9YJRSAzQ!d4EzTVCnEhjbbZ1T_eubSSV0SXZXlLgTgNTXexa1x88 1 -Arnie- reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carddass 273 Posted January 10, 2016 Holy shit, that was really good. You would've thought after almost 30 years of not releasing anything that they would've lost their edge and transformed into some parody of their former selves but this makes me really excited about the album.Considering Zin's foray into more electronic music with his solo projects this new incarnation of Madame Edwarda could've went horribly wrong. I'm going to use their website's store form to try and order it even though I'm outside of Japan. Let's see if they get back to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted January 10, 2016 ^ If you don't succeed, the album (plus all those re-releases listed in their official store) is available at CDJapan, that's where I ordered my copy from at least. 1 carddass reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carddass 273 Posted January 11, 2016 I didn't even think of looking through a normal store and assumed it was only available on the website. Last time I searched it wasn't on amazon.co.jp but now it is.If the main website does work it out it'll come with some remix CD too. It'll also give me a chance to order some of Zin's solo work~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
