geist 227 Posted April 17, 2018 The Un Deux comparisons are definitely warranted here. It sounds pretty good! Kaoru's Viper looks fuckin' sexy tho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChaoticEnding 2070 Posted April 17, 2018 I'm a bit disappointed with the preview, it really did not excite me. But I was able to see something a little different from the ARCHE. But I'm curious to see the full song. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saishu 1589 Posted April 17, 2018 sticking with the bad overcompressed mixing they’ve been using for like five years now already makes this sound old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LIDL 692 Posted April 17, 2018 I love what I hear so far. And that MV is looking interesting. A little WtD vibe for me so it is good. Can’t wait! 1 geist reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blacktooth 227 Posted April 17, 2018 This could also be a relatively old song compared to the rest they're working on the album, but I wouldn't hold my breath for a big change in sound. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I felt it with Dozing Green, when it came out I thought it was not too far from their last work, but then I could see how it fit into the context of the new album. Now we have utafumi and Ningen Wo Kaburu, through these songs I do not realize something very far from ARCHE, my expectation is that the album places these songs within the context that they seek to express, with this "new" style that they long for. Now...I've been hearing this all day, I'm really enjoying this final part of the song/video. ^^ Edited April 17, 2018 by Ob777 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saishuu 3220 Posted April 17, 2018 Sounds boring, but it is nice to see them putting an effort in their videos again. It looks cool! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karma’s Hat 3107 Posted April 17, 2018 I Despise the guitar tone and their riffing style at this point. Sukekiyo is about ten times the band they are these days 1 3 karai · ebi, platy, rekzer and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

emmny 4139 Posted April 17, 2018 Listen up thots...DEG r gonna troll us all and every other track on the album except for utafumi and this are going to be decaying crow levels of insanity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelrya 145 Posted April 17, 2018 I think the chorus in the teaser sounds amazing to be honest , I just hope there are some heavier moments coming as well. Since we have sukekiyo for Kyo’s softer side I’ve actually been hoping for something Decayed Crow-esque. Arche was good but it has the opposite problem as DSS. Both albums are great but with DSS I wished there were a couple more memorable melodic choruses, and then with Arche we got too much of that and I missed the more aggressive and experimental elements of the last few records. 1 geist reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blacktooth 227 Posted April 17, 2018 I was hoping for a rhythm gimmick that wasn't triplets. That's why this sounds like Un Deux deux. Why don't they play with time signatures anymore or even funky syncopation like in Lotus? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zombieparadise 487 Posted April 17, 2018 I'm sold. Better sounding and more memorable than Utafumi already. Still not digging naked cannibalism practices, but that's just me ~~~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Idk....I felt like Dozing Green did a great job at shedding away from TMOAB. The cause of alarm here for me is that unless im mistaken, I don't think there's been a Dir en grey song in memory till now that i can say that it "sounds exactly" like (insert song). This sounds (so far) uninspired just like Utafumi, even though Utafumi does pack a punch to it. 2 ChaoticEnding and Saishu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
