cheesy_VK_Freak 76 Posted September 17, 2019 The song is cool, but it definitely does not need the length it has. The ‚musical message‘ comes across kind of sloppy that way, I don‘t feel a development, climax or break or anything that would ‚justify’ the length. The piano part, atmospheric part etc. are cool, the ‚freak out‘ parts are so much out of place and do not fit. Thats my first impression at least, will write here if my impression changes after more listens. 2 Furik and nullmoon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would be cool Ka-za-ri has at least one demo tape actually: https://www.discogs.com/Kazari-Close-My/release/10998688 It's not terribly hard to find. The quality is awful but some of the songs are actually pretty cool Edited September 17, 2019 by StriderSubzero Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hopefully_benign 56 Posted September 18, 2019 (edited) dudes, Metallica aren't the band that made Ride the Lightning anymore, they're a mainstream rock institution now. there's a huge pressure for them to keep their finger on the pulse of what's going on in their general periphery of the music world. I'm not sure but it wouldn't surprise me at all. as for the single, uhh, it's clear they still have a knack for actual moody songwriting-there are still glimmers of it-but the "metal" parts remain boilerplate and drag everything down. par for the course for me.

Furik 832 Posted September 23, 2019 I... hate to say it but I agree that the single is boring. If I wanted something that was identical to this song in terms of length and experimentation, I’d go and listen to anything else they’ve put out in the past 10 years or so. This single was honestly probably just a Sukekiyo outtake and decided to release it as Dir en grey just for the sake of keeping the band name still relevant. 1 nullmoon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ro plz 1290 Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) I still don't get the trend of calling everything sub-par DEG does, a Sukekiyo outtake. Two Very different bands. And its already been made known that this is two tracks Shinya and Kaoru brought to the table and Kyo made the suggestion of putting em together. If anything Mercy is pretty much a TIW leftover.

Saishu 1589 Posted September 23, 2019 Yeah I can’t say Sukekiyo even crossed my mind when I heard this. Is it the electronic elements in the beginning? The riffs are VERY DEG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheesy_VK_Freak 76 Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) Plotwist: Takumi is support member of Dir en grey no, the song is not really sukekiyo, the beginning part gave me a bit of their vibe but that‘s about it. Plus, I find myself skipping to the 5 minutes part or so (where the heavy guitars kick in), I can‘t really appreciate the song as a whole piece. Edit: and I mean, Infinitum already kinda felt like a leftover compilation, so was this then the leftover of the leftover?

sleepy coffee 1476 Posted September 23, 2019 Tbh this is probably better than anything on infinitum anyways, that album stinked apart from like 2 MAYBE 3 songs 1 1 Tokage and Egnirys cimredopyh reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saishu 1589 Posted September 23, 2019 That Kyo image is cracking me up. I don’t think World of Mercy gets good until after the “sekai de!” and by then 90% of the song is over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ghost 2687 Posted September 23, 2019 TWOM really does sound like a mash up of several ideas. It's pieced together so poorly though with no real cohesion. Cool sounds here and there, I like the doom-metal vibes in the first third of the song and the more post-metal-y vibes in the latter third. But, this might be one of the worst songs they've released. 10 minutes of no direction and no real hooks or riffs. No offense, but next time please kindly leave your ideas at the door Kyo. 1 nullmoon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
