Tokage 5930 Posted March 25, 2018 Metronome recently announced that they'll apparently be releasing a new full-length album titled 「廿奇譚AHEAD」in July. The album will come in 3 different types, CD+DVD (5000 yen), 2 CD (4000 yen) and CD only (3000 yen). Tracklist and official artwork still tba. Source: http://meto21.com/sound.html I'm glad to see they're so active again, although I kind of hope this album won't follow the same line as their latest single A-side cuz I absolutely didn't feel that one at all.. 2 returnal and robkun reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnesh 52 Posted March 25, 2018 Just listened to the track on their website. The music's all right but that hideously over-autotuned vocal! It's not like that on every song, is it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's been kinda their trademark since, uhmmm... 20 years ago or so. (okay, maybe not as prevalently but still, it's kinda part of their futuristic bleep-bloop schtick) Edited March 25, 2018 by Jigsaw9 1 returnal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnesh 52 Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) Hm, think I'll probably give it a miss then. Had no idea they'd been around for so long, I've never heard of them before and assumed they were a new band (though did wonder how they'd got signed to King Records so quickly).

Tokage 5930 Posted July 2, 2018 Sweet look, looking forward to the album too. By the way, haven't pretty much all the tracks on that bonus album been re-recorded on those COLLECTION albums they dropped before going on hiatus, or are there any new ones mixed in?

Jigsaw9 6783 Posted July 2, 2018 ^ The phrase they used on the official site was 2018年再録ベスト・アルバム so I'm guessing the tracks were either re-recorded (again? xD) in 2018 or they are 2018 mixes of the already existing re-recordings....??? Not sure tbh. xD 1 Tokage reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tokage 5930 Posted July 4, 2018 So I just rechecked the tracklists for those two COLLECTION albums, and it seems that the bonus disk indeed most likely must consist of new re-recordings, cuz 誤sick for instance doesn't appear on either of them, and MATSURI's only there as a live recording 2 Jigsaw9 and madygrain reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted July 12, 2018 They just uploaded the short version of their new PV~ Not bad. 1 Tokage reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tokage 5930 Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) Better than their last single imo... still feels really weird to hear them with (relatively) high production values though lol By the way, one of the banners on their OHP says something about a CD and the live on September 1st if I'm not wrong? Is it an announcement of some live dist. release or is it just connected to the new album? Edited July 12, 2018 by Tokage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They will distribute a CD called 「廿奇譚リクエストCD」(Nijû kitan request CD) on 2018.09.01. 90% of the songs in the CD will be from their indie period. They will also be re-recorded.
