It just sounds crap, like it was a nice idea they tried but the fact is, 90% aren't listening to their music with the set up they were going for so everyone is just like "wow, well this really sounds shit" haha. I was damn surprised when I first put the disc on, I thought my speakers had screwed up for a minute or something. haha. It's a shame about not putting out a full album, if Lime is the main song writer then I can kind of understand what he means, but the solution is just to take longer on your work and not just put out 3 tracks every few months. Obviously I know how the Japanese scene works and that they need to keep momentum going and whatever but it IS possible to write a quality full length over time. As the main song writer in my own band, our first release is a full length album (11 songs) which took about a year to compose and even though the label hasn't announced us and the album's not out yet we're working on an EP (5/6 tracks we're thinking) which I have been working on, on and off for another year or so.... The point I'm trying to get at here is that, I personally think if you spend longer to really refine your ideas and stuff, you flesh out the bad/boring/generic ideas and end up with one REALLY solid release where every single part is (hopefully) really cool. I do sometimes wonder how much better a lot of V kei bands would be if they took this approach, obviously I like a lot of V kei bands, so far from saying they're bad (though of course some are....haha) but just have to wonder if instead of pumping (maybe rushing??) out 3/4 songs every couple of months they spent longer to really work on a more lengthy release that was properly refined how it would sound. I mean with my bands stuff, we literally had completed songs that we made adjustments to the week before recording or even during the studio time. haha. Don't rush shit out, take your time and get it right as once that song is recorded there's no going back. Unless you want to keep re-recording it like some bands we know.... hah 1 1 1 kuyashii, saiko and deadman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yomii 834 Posted May 26, 2019 so far im in love with almost all of the songs and don't see that much of a problem, but i won't get mad either if kizu takes a break, making us eager for more, and then puts out an outstanding full-length. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karma’s Hat 3107 Posted May 26, 2019 They're obviously not going to take any breaks or slow their pace now when they're hot. They'll keep churning releases consistently as long as the last one keeps outselling the one before that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleepy coffee 1476 Posted May 26, 2019 I think the 4 new songs every 3-4 months is a pretty solid pace for them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r... 720 Posted May 26, 2019 they don't really tour that much, so it's not like they are being overworked by their label. a single every 3 months is ok, it's important to keep a steady flow of releases in this scene to keep the fans engaged. i just think they have what it takes to come up with a nice album. OR, a concise killer mini. i'll take that. 1 saishuu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darkindastad 47 Posted June 18, 2019 I like what I am hearing so far, especially the first two songs. I am glad they put out a preview earlier this time, haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yomii 834 Posted June 18, 2019 nice of them to out out this vid so i could choose which type to preorder. but now i cant choose anyway cuz i dont like both samples Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleepy coffee 1476 Posted June 18, 2019 Track 3 on type b is pretty dumb sounding but everything else sounds solid so type a it is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raspberrynilla 85 Posted June 18, 2019 They all sound like tracks you’ll hear as anime OP/ED. Oh well. They were bound to release an “anime” single sooner or later. 1 suji reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AkiraUroko 26 Posted June 18, 2019 It looks like it will be the first time when I didn't like their songs. Last two samples sound very weak. They can do much better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arkady 396 Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) I don't hate the 3B but I don't anticipate repetitive listening to it either, it's a generic j-rock song. Not bad but not memorable either. I like the first two. the second one intro melody remind me a bit of some Malice Mizer stuff. Third may be a bit anime-y but not too bad. I'm in the team that think they should release an album, if they don't want to bother writing one they should make a "greatest hits" chosing among their released singles and run with the cash. 😛 Edited June 18, 2019 by Arkady Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
platy 3018 Posted June 18, 2019 I'm not liking the sound of this release at all. For the first time lime's voice sounds grating to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tokage 5930 Posted June 18, 2019 The 2nd sample's the most interesting out of the bunch for me... Kinda feel like it'd have been fine if they would've released that one as the a-side. I'm not really feeling the other three tracks all that much, the last two legit do sound like anisongs. I have to admit I'm still not fully on the Kizu hype train anyway, I REALLY really liked 0 and ステロイド, and 平成 is alright too, but most of their other a-sides didn't and still don't quiiite do it for me. I haven't really bothered to check out any of their b-sides yet so mb i'm missing out on some good shit, but part of me doesn't want to look into them due to being salty about the whole 'lol we'll never release an album :^)' thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) All samples sound okay so far. They're generally an 'okay' band, but I can never remember more than a small handful of their songs. So, just as always, I'll listen to this single too, enjoy it while it's on, and then completely forget about this band until their next single comes around, lol. Not saying this as something negative, I do like their stuff but uniqueness is not really their forte. Edited June 18, 2019 by Jigsaw9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
