That actually came out a lot better than I expected. Nice catchy song.

 

Cover art is horrendous tho, lmao.

Agreed. The song sounds great, but the cover art looks like if Sephiroth beat Cloud.

[Himeaimichu 1535]

The song sounds ok, but I miss the chaotic sounding stuff from GossiP. 

[nekkichi 6043]

I'm glad they're no longer pressured to cosplay-clown other bands in the scene in a reductive recycled ains act, but their current personality as a band has all the quirks and flavors you'd expect from a jug of tap water, stale wonderbread pack and some pebble-stones mixed together and pushed down the juicer. I hope their other stuff isn't as forgettable, bc. I don't even actually despise this as much as I expected to.

 

the 2002 deviantart hell is strong with that cover art tho

[Kiryu999 3336]

Good song! This new style suits them pretty well

[chocobuzz 752]

It sounds nice but I hope they'll still do some heavier/messier stuff that Gossip used to do too. That cover art looks terrible though lol

[yomii 834]

i would love the cover art but that guy's face is totally fucked up. the idea of demons in the urban landscape gives me strong megami tensei vibes, so i feel strangely attracted to it.

the girl is kinda cute and reminds me of high pixie....

I enjoyed that, it's nice to see that they're forging an identity of their own now.

[saiko 429]

Very cool song. Seems well written and well executed. I most liked the singing and the countermelodic bass line at the chorus.

 

Btw, I'm surprised nobody actually mentioned the similarities with late R-shitei funky A-side's. 

 

[sleepy coffee 1476]

It's fine but compared to gossip it's quite boring 

[emmny 4139]

I hope Gossip's stab at more popular sounding VK works for them, saku's vocal melodies sound great and they should dethrone uhhh all of resistar and r-shitty

[ajisaii052 22]

It's hard to create an opinion. Gossip was my favourite band. So this NICHOLAS will surely also be 💕

I think they sound awesome *\^o^/* But it's my biased opinion. lol

[sakuran 1216]

I really couldn't care less what the cover art looks like, but I think the song sounds quite nice.

[Doesn'tEvenGoHere 121]

I really like the song. It sounds a lot more polished than what I expected. It's not as chaotic as Gossip, but I think this is their way of trying to build their own identity. That cover art is something else though. Like something a high school garage band would come up with. 

[Manji 卍 743]

Absolutely great track,nice to see them trying new things,but at the same time it's not so different.I bet that they have some mad tracks in the gossip style,but I wanna see where they can go with this matured sound. The artwork is quite interesting, better than many others I've seen on vk releases recently.

[Tokage 5930]

they basically pulled a dezert with the ''dude we're a j-indie band now btw lol'' sound it seems

 

somehow i like the singer guy's voice more here than in gossip tho idk why

[secret_no_03 959]

I swear I've seen this quarry before.

 

[saishuu 3220]

this is kiiiinda boring, but it's still good enough? idk I hope the rest of their stuff turns out to be good

[Takadanobabaalien 3607]

Two last songs are Gossip songs. 

 

[Jigsaw9 6783]

They sure must like that one song they played 3 times there, lol.

[God 264]

i never really liked gossip that much, but that song is so good?  that guitar thing in the beginning had me hyped af.  more please.
