Mamo 1172 Posted July 12, 2017 (edited) So I have previously had this discussion with "JILUKA" winning beating "FIXER" by 72% of the votes. So with their new mini-albums released last month I thought this would be a good time to re-open this discussion. So this one can be view two different ways either you can judge weather "JILUKA" is still better than "FIXER" or you simply judge the mini-albums only. I'll set up the poll so you can't vote for the minis and the bands themselves or just the bands if you prefer. Oh and unrelated but they toured together recently as well which is pretty awesome VS. FIGHT!!! Edited July 12, 2017 by sume7 2 Ada Suilen and Serox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ada Suilen 652 Posted July 12, 2017 As I follow both bands and I have listened to the two mini-albums, I want to tell my opinion in few words... Xenomorphic confirms once again how strong and virtuous can be Jiluka's sound since their return on 2014, with blasting riffs and energetic breakdowns, but compared to works like B.A.L.U.S. (my favourite release of theirs) there has been a sort of vocal idleness, as Ricko has been capable of better interpretations of the ones heard here. Libra has been a real surprise for me, as I didn't like Fixer at all until they didn't join Starwave Records, with a decent album and a remarkable single, where this mini-album is a great example of maturation for them, where Jey's vocals and the complexity of some songs are the strongest point. So for me is Fixer - Libra. 3 Komorebi, Mamo and ChaoticEnding reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mamo 1172 Posted July 14, 2017 For me "JILUKA" still wins on both fronts but only by a small margin on the subject of "Libra" vs "Xenomorphic". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VkBrutaliaN 1890 Posted July 15, 2017 today i finally was able to listen to JILUKA's Xenomorphic and its a NO-BRAINER that JILUKA is way better!! ;D heavier and way more technical.... although i loved Fixer in the beginning since they joined this label they suck... >.>'' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Axius 2019 Posted July 30, 2017 I love fixer but to be honest with you. The Libra mini album for me fell short compared to there previous releases of Fixer. Jiluka is very consistent when it comes to releases i feel and is a amazing band. Fixers label is okayish but idk if its just me or did anyone notice a slight change vo. Jey's voice/screams on this album? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
