efuru 255 Posted January 14, 2016 still didn't listen to ikenai kiss but still interested in that new release..hoping it will be more like their older stuff xD I know it's not likely to happen but let me dream ok I did the same thing. I listened to each song on ikenai kiss and I was so disappointed but I'm hoping this release will be better. 1 Xerath reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xerath 275 Posted January 14, 2016 I did the same thing. I listened to each song on ikenai kiss and I was so disappointed but I'm hoping this release will be better. my hope died to 97% when I read EDR= Electronic Dance Rock...but I will still give it a try cause it is a mini with 6 new tracks 1 TheStoic reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colorful人生 2777 Posted January 14, 2016 While I didn't care for their dubstep infusion in SECRET, Ikenai Kiss completely blew me away.I enjoyed their old sound, but I think the band has finally found their element.I didn't know what this forum's response was at the time, but I'm curious if there was a similar reaction when xTRiPx transitioned into their"Free Style Anthem"/Electronic Rap Rock stage (esp. with Astrovibes and double). Personally, I'm shaking in my boots with excitement. If this mini is what I think it's going to be.... Oh lawd... 2 lollipopmonstar and Tetora reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fitear1590 2414 Posted January 15, 2016 I listened to each song on ikenai kiss and I was so disappointed but I'm hoping this release will be better. While I didn't care for their dubstep infusion in SECRET, Ikenai Kiss completely blew me away. I'm kind of feeling a combination of these two comments. For the "EDR" style that SECRET and Ikenai KISS are: Ikenai KISS >>> SECRET (although maybe that's just because the sampling in SECRET annoyed the shit out of me?) But I did not enjoy the b-sides of Ikenai KISS. Particularly in metronome, I couldn't believe how cheap the synth sound was, since DIV has become one of the better VK bands when it comes to their electronic arrangements.

colorful人生 2777 Posted January 15, 2016 (although maybe that's just because the sampling in SECRET annoyed the shit out of me?) Exactly this. I'm not entirely informed about the nitty-gritty aspects on the production side of many "electronic" genres, but the synth in "SECRET" + B-sides of "Ikenai Kiss" def. lacked depth/substance. It's like some default space noises from FLS or something; however, I have a feeling that this could be attributed to the bands recent venture into "EDM" (in particular) and them trying to push those types of tracks out there. Liking the overall sound/melodies of their last single and having listened to cheap synth from certain crustacean-based "-core" bands in the past *shamefully rolls eyes* has allowed me to overlook the flaws. Hopefully with time they'll get better at this, particularly with their upcoming mini-album. On a side note, what is up with that weird sounding dubstep that comes out of Japan with literally no bass. Usually in the U.S it's absolute overkill/grating, but it seems flip-flopped over there. (I actually find slightly less bass more tolerable, it's just interesting to me.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
