nick 10212 Posted April 23, 2016 VACANT sounds really promising. I'm so hyped right now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ShanethVarosa 1209 Posted April 23, 2016 Hmm so the set list isn't gonna be consistent? I guess I just have to hope they'll play my favorites. I'd really like to hear Chizuru live. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably too reminiscent of GRUDGE or w/e that mid-tempo chugfest was. As much as i hate to admit it, you nailed it here. At least for the last long... I hope there's some noticeable variation though. If not, like i always said before.... Expecting much variation from the GazettE during a span of releases just isn't logical. Oh well.

Mind of the sun 71 Posted April 26, 2016 Is it the real pv? Or just something someone put together with the song? It feels kind of inconsistent haha The song is great though, even better than UGLY. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nick 10212 Posted April 26, 2016 It's a full pv but I think there was a volume glitch at the beginning and the file itself is not properly ripped. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pretsy 1343 Posted April 26, 2016 (edited) A few thoughts for now (imposing high standards is not cool but they HAVE lots of potential with particular points of improvement here: Pros: + Ruki's gutturals and screams improved a lot (both A-side and this first B-side prove that). At this point they could utilize his improvement to the very extent in their later efforts. + Kai sounds less boring/bored (or both actually, haha). I am pretty sure he got a hint from foreign fans and/or metalheads when it comes to his earlier, sloppy playing in heavier tracks. In the middle: x Very clean production values. Not sure what I should think about them when... Cons: - ...Aoi and Uruha mix still makes no sense. You have two guitarists - why do guitars here sound like as if you double-tracked them instead of having 2 axemen cooperating "naturally"? - Reita is as interesting as Paul Gray, oops. - they could just throw out those (rehashed) melodic passages if they obviously served no particular purpose in the song (MALUM). UNDYING could do much better in the melodic department as well - and preferably without random 0-3-0-1-0-0-3 passages disrupting the build.

Nagisa 131 Posted April 27, 2016 I really liked the PV. It would have been better if they hadn't included footage from the live but at least there wasn't that much. It was cool how the members turned into sand and the girl picked up Ruki's mask from DOGMA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rekzer 599 Posted April 27, 2016 Any pics of the merch? The prices are horribly high so i wanna see what im getting when i get raped for it. ._. 1 TheStoic reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ro plz 1290 Posted April 27, 2016 The way UNDYING was done and placed chronologically makes this whole DOGMA phase (at least from the purely musical perspective because there's still the Tour which is part of it) feel complete. UNDYING and MALUM are a breath of fresh air from UGLY which was enjoyable but nothing really you go back to repeatedly. VACANT is what AN UNBEARABLE ACT is to NARAKU as it being a better version or continuation of GRUDE. The GazettE nailed it here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nick 10212 Posted April 27, 2016 Are they going blackmetal with that logo? lol 2 ghost and DESTINYGUY0316 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DESTINYGUY0316 363 Posted April 27, 2016 My opinion this logo look like Deathmetal / Black Metal the GazettE now look Metal Ruki voice so Darkness I can't believe the GazettE change to Dark side old version of the GazettE is cool no like now is awesome so sweet ... Precious Band so Dark . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saishu 1589 Posted April 27, 2016 That logo is awful and doesn't reflect their sound at all. You aren't THAT heavy, guys. Chill out. As far as Undying, I think it's okay. It's similar in composition to the song Dogma, just sloppier. A lot of the differing sections seem like ideas that weren't fleshed out enough to make sense together, just a lot of awkward and jarring transitions from one part to the next. Carmelzors post already touched on this, but the melodic parts really are kind of... boring. This is my biggest issue with Ruki as of late. His melodies sound recycled and flat, but props to him for improving the screams and growls. The rest of the band is fine, except I still can't tell Reita is there except for one really quick, cool bass run towards the end. I dunno, I guess I'm just not as taken with Gazette's new "dark" phase as other people are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jduv86 224 Posted April 29, 2016 I need help from someone who got the v.i.p. meet and greet ticket. What happens at their meet and greet? Pictures...autographs? I'm not sure. Also, since I'm going to be in NY the whole day, I wanted to take my tablet and get some pictures around the city. I'm not staying the night so will security stop me from bringing my tablet in even if I turn it off for the concert?...I have a piece of shit phone so I really need to bring my tablet.
