Kiryu999 3336 Posted January 25, 2020 Solid song, it's like a continuation of Rijin but a little less good. However the previews for the album aren't very promising imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Egnirys cimredopyh 54 Posted January 25, 2020 Meh... sounds like boring and poppier version of rijin... heard the previews too and it all sounds like this sadly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nomemorial 341 Posted January 25, 2020 Really dug this. Curious to see where the album goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saiko 429 Posted January 25, 2020 I'm FUCKING digging this. Excellent mix of poppy J-rock and today's metal progressive sounds, while at the same time keeps delivering Dimlim's trademark sound. Bonus points for Sho's look! The VK vibe's still there untouched! 1 1 kuyashii and CAT5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s pretty much gone. “Rijin” was a peek into where they were headed, “Do” from Kidoairaku was the final clue. I dig the shuffle groove around the two minute mark though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-NOVA- 3027 Posted January 25, 2020 (edited) The unpredictability of this band is what i fucking adore. This new direction wont be for everyone of course and honestly im amazed this band is still going. They've lost 4 different members by now and dropping the vk aesthetic is a huge move. The band doesn't care about following formulas and this song really showcases that. They aren't afraid to try weird shit and even without screams you can really hear sho's voice give it all hes got. I wont lie i was hoping for a lil roar. Spoiler And ofcourse Retsu's playing is nothing to scoff at hes really bringing out bunch of different techniques. Remember hes compensating for another guitarist. Hiroshi does a solid job; in final chorus he pops off with those crashes and i love that he didnt overly use them throughout the track. The build up really makes the final chorus worth while. It's not for everyone i think everyone has the right to like it or hate it.

zaa_zaa 208 Posted January 25, 2020 The guitar parts are clearly written for two guitarists. I hope they will find new members. The song is good on its own. 2 -NOVA- and kuyashii reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kabukichoatmidnight 269 Posted January 25, 2020 This actually isn't half as shit as I expected it to be. Don't have itunes so haven't heard the samples which some of you guys have said raises some alarms, but I was hoping that this was the most commercial song on the album and there was going to be some of the classic DIMLIM sound we're used to in the other songs.... Guess that's out the window? lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saga 116 Posted January 25, 2020 Really loved the first third of the song. For me, Retsu can go as progressive as he wants. It even made me to listen to some Polyphia again. Sho is is nailing it as always. Felt that the song had space for him to go a bit harder. Looks like that it will be a common feeling while listening the DIMLIM 2.0, which I really like since Rijin is golden. A little stretched and the seconds of autotune is always hard to digest, but without any doubt a solid song. 1 Xerath reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleepy coffee 1476 Posted January 25, 2020 This was fucking brilliant, but of course that's no surprise. It's not like dimlim had the best releases in vk in 2018 and 2019 or something like that lmao 1 Xerath reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Demivee 103 Posted January 25, 2020 (edited) Hmm, difficult. I really dig the song as it is a logical continuation of Rijin. But I fear that the outcome of the album will be to stale and poppy. We‘ll see.. But I‘m defintely grateful that Retsu didn‘t throw some trip-emo-hop at us... Edited January 25, 2020 by Demivee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tokage 5930 Posted January 25, 2020 i'd much, MUCH rather take this noodly math rock stuff over deathcore any day of the week for sure, so from that POV i'm definitely not as disappointed with the samples as I could've been (plus I'm somewhat glad we didnt get any xXx_sadboigoth_xXx shit thrown at us, as unintentionally hilarious as that would've been).. At the same time, anyone who's ever listened to even a bit of non-vk j-indie probably knows this particular brand of pop math rock sound has already been done to death in that scene to about the same extent the nu-VK scene's dredged the swamp of mediocre xxxcore-influenced sounds, so I can't really see this ending up being anything other than yet another album to add to the ''vaguely sounds like cinema staff/sokoninaru/the cabs/tricot'' pile based on the samples. 4 1 saiko, kuyashii, Jigsaw9 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheZigzagoon 670 Posted January 25, 2020 After listening to the previews, I’m not so worried about this album being a flop. ‘Do’ was my favourite track from Kidoairaku and I do like that these tracks follow a similar formula. However like I said earlier I wish there was still a hint of heaviness spread out here and there. Lament is probs gonna be my favourite track I can feel it, I don’t feel like ‘What’s up?’ should’ve been the song that got an MV 2 gret and sleepy coffee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
