Now playing...

Currently listening to: Beautiful Deformity - The Gazette

I'm a newbie to this band so sorry if I was wrong on parts

So far this album does not disappoint. I'm liking the songs so far, but I especially love Inside Beast, even its PV.

MALFORMED BOX - It's the intro and it has a good connection to inside beast.

INSIDE BEAST - This song is very addicting. I like that it's mostly english. I admire the drums in this song.

UNTIL IT BURNS OUT - the title sounds like a song past paramore would do.

FADELESS - Oh Oh Yeah... The girl back-up is so... I like the instrumental part.

REDO - It feels like a slow version of REGRET. IDK. It's just me. I a sad-happy song. It's a sad song but the melody is quite 'whimsical' and airy. (?) OHMYGOSH!!! I'm a sucker for piano parts in a song! Whoever was that, I praise you! :)

LAST HEAVEN - It's ballad-ish. I've seen so many good comments about it and I am very excited to listen to it! The acoustic guitars... "Shape changing day by day" This part is stuck in my head. It's a mellow song.

LOSS - The beginning is so weird and then they revert to how they usually sound like. Feels like they're going back to their roots but still adding new twists to it.

THE STUPID TINY INSECT - The intro is very interesting. Feels a little dancy or a party song. And the refrain has this repetitive lines and it adds to it danciness and heabangable-ness. I like it. Reminds me of AFFECTION (A9) quite a bit. Sorry. Not that it's a bad song, sorry for the A9 reference.

IN BLOSSOM - As the album progresses the songs become harder, in terms of instruments. I like the chorus part. I like how it slows down on that part. It's like a calm before the storm and I like it when Ruki's voice goes a little higher.

KARASU - Bass. The songs are becoming more headbangable. The girl voices are quite similar to the girl voices in INSIDE BEAST. This song is a beautiful mess.

KUROKU SUNDA SORA TO ZANGAI TO KATAHA - It's sounds like the continuation of KARASU. Ruki's voice is reminding me of their early days. Tje chorus, again, is catchy. I like the drums in this song. Ruki is rapping? 

TO DAZZLING DARKNESS - This could become a good battle song. It reminded me of TriGun. It's like an apocalyptic song and it is your final stand. Or you're in a losing fight, you know it but you don't give up.

CODA - Well, that transition was very good! It didn't feel like the song changed at all. Western battle song. Ruki is talking. I realized that this was the outro. The guitars are awesome this time around.

OVERALL RATING:

8/10; It's a good album expected from a good band, though I was distracted a lot of times, I was able to appreciate it. :)

Sirius

「SIRIUS」- DIAURA

I think it's just fair to do a review/comment about this song, saying that it's the other song that came in tandem with 「Messiah」. 

I want to like this song more than the other one, but the chorus of the other one is just way too catchy for its own good. Still this song is more inclined to the things I actually listen to. Maybe I don't like screamo that much. 

I have an immediate reaction to this song. My head just instantly pops up whenever I hear this song and it feels like I've heard it before. And I totally love the piano intro. The song has a grand and dark feel to it. (Even without watching the PV)

It still has some screaming parts but still it's few compared to the other song.

PV wise, it is dark and gloomy and tells a story. I like a PV that tells a story. It has the elements of a typical rock video or visual kei video. The heavy make-up, leather outfits and candles. Appearance wise, I like the eye makeup of the vocalist, especially when he had the red contacts. He looked so innocent during that part.

OVERALL RATING:

Since this song connects with me immediately i would like to give it a 8/10, but I wish it was more memorable.

Change

Once again this bitch changes her shit for the nth time.

It irritates me that I change oh so often people forget me. 

BUT!

Change is good! So maybe it's a good thing that I'm still finding myself and what I really want.

SO EAT IT ME!

Seriously

Seriously, THIS HAS GOT TO STOP.

I've been listening to one song for the past few hours and I've been telling myself that I don't like the song and whatnot but my head keeps on singing it, like I've got an earworm infection(spongebob reference).

It's a new band I'm listening to and it's just their one song, but somehow I can't stop listening to it... So maybe I'll do a review on the song.

Messiah - Mejibray
First of all, I don't really like the verses of the song. It's way too rock-ish for me or maybe I don't really like the screaming part but the chorus is very catchy. It gets stuck in your head easily. I downloaded this song with another song I wanted to hear but somehow I forgot the melody of the other one and this is just stuck in my head like there's no tomorrow for the both of us. The chorus just sticks with you like paper on glue (vice versa)

PV wise, it was the typical visual kei PV (is it right to say this?). The band plays in some grand and undisclosed location. There are the solo parts of the vocals and the place seems old and sepia-like in color. Then the existence of awesome clothes and heavy makeup but that's all. And of course, you can never leave out the "fanservice" (again, is it okay?). On the end of the PV, there was this thing that happened. 

OVERALL RATING:
Though I don't like the verses and the PV is the usual, I totally fell for the chorus so I give it a 8/10. :)

I kinda like it.

I don't even like the color purple that much but this phrase says so much... 

Dontcha think that "PURPLE GAS EVOLUTION" sounds so f***ing great?!

It sounds like a science experiment gone wrong and I actually got this from a chemistry experiment. 

Purple gas evolution just sounds so bad-ass. 

I LIKE IT!

Let's 「VANDALIZE」this!!!

.So I am going to make a mini-review; more like a comment of some sort of Alice Nine's album: 「VANDALIZE」.

1. The beautiful name

     - This song touches my heart in more ways than one. At first, I didn't like this song that much. Maybe because it's such a sappy song and not that rock-ish. But once I have read the lyrics, it made me realize why in the world the melody was made that way. If they made this song rock-ish, it would take away the meaning of the song. So I'm glad they made it this way. It sounds so grand and beautiful and it's very calming. Especially, the last part when everything is just fading away.

2. Hyakkaryouran

     -  I can't make anything of this song right now. It's a mix of pop, rock and a lot of synthesizers for me right now. I like how the verses are very calm and then the chorus would be made mostly of drums and Shou's vocals. It's a type of song I would easily forget and then when it pops out, I would like jam to it just a little bit. Which is kinda sad. It's happy upbeat song but the lyrics are quite sad.

3. RAINBOWS

    - Seriously, this one of my favorite Alice Nine songs ever. It's upbeat and It makes me want to get up and dance. It's something I can listen to everyday. I like Shou's voice here. Especially in the high part. Just before Hiroto's guitar solo. It's sounds so divine. I also like Hiroto's guitar-piano part. And this is actually the first time I've heard Saga's bass.

4. Kiss twice, kiss me deadly

    - It's a sexy, upbeat song, but I like the secret session better. Somehow the upbeatness of the song removes some of the sexiness. And I don't like the female background singer, I like Saga's voice better. And the lyrics bother me, just a little bit. It feels like it's not Shou writing. Though I give props to him for getting out of his comfort zone. He's just being a bit adventurous.

5. CROSS GAME

     - I love the first part, the guitar duet of Tora and Hiroto. Since it was made for an anime, I find it quite stereotypical, but still good. I also like the words "algorithm" and "allegro" Shou added somewhere in the verses. Once again, when Shou hits the high note, it's just divine. And the solo is amazing. I always like it when Tora and Hiroto play does a guitar duet.

6. Subaru

    - I've never actually learned the value of the song until I heard it as 「GOSPEL」. That moment when Shou started singing pulled my heartstrings. The lyrics, the melody and everything about this song touches my soul, cradling it gently and singing to me its sweet lullaby. I don't want to stop listening to this song. It's like 「waterfall」all over again. The pain of this song speaks to me. It makes me believe that through everything, people will be there to help you. And lastly, the fade away part is so amazing. I love everything about this song.

7. www.

    - This song is headbangable. Once again, I love the melody of this song. And the richness of Shou's voice is so tantalizing. The guitar solo part is impeccable. The lead is quite bass-like in this song.

8. Drella

    - the name reminds me of cinderella. I like the still part when the only thing I hear is the rhythm guitar. From my hearing observation, Shou's voice is quite edited. Just a bitthough, the integrity is still there. Again, I'm totally in love with the guitar solo. Just when you thought the song has ended, a short instrumental pops up.

9. MIRROR BALL (VANDALIZE EDITION)

    - This is the acoustic take on the original MIRROR BALL. This new arrangement changes the whole feel of the song. The slowness of the song really says goodbye to me. It's like a true farewell song. I sure do hope that it's Saga playing the piano though. This arrangement brings out the other side of the song. It changes the song as a whole. This one feels more personal.

10. Innocence

      - it's a happy song. It feels kind of childish to me, with a little hint of maturity. It's a playful song. The song amd the lyrics really says something about the title, even without knowing the meaning of the song, the melody really screams innocence. And the lyrics are also simple. Just like an innocent child.

11. Waterfall

       - Once again, it's a song that pulls on my heartstrings. It's a low song and yet Shou pulls it off like it's nothing amd them his voice just goes a little bit higher. The sound of the drums overwhelm me. I can't actually say anything about this song. It's just a beautiful song, with beautiful lyrics. There's a lot I can say about it except that it's amazing and divine.

OVERALL:

This album is full of variety. There are danceable songs, sexy songs, rock songs and slow songs. It's a hodgepodge of awesomeness. It shows a lot of sides to Alice Nine. I give it a 9.5/10 'cause of one song. Not that I hate it, i just feel like the other version was better.

The Beginning of the End

It's just been five months since I've entered college. I didn't want to get attached to anyone 'cause I know we won't be staying together for that long. It's not that I didn't want to have friends, it's just hard to say goodbye to things or to people you hold so dearly. It wasn't easy when I was in high school; and it's not gonna get easier this college. 

i don't like attachment but I get easily attached to things, way too attached. And when you leave them, it's gonna hurt like hell or like you've been run over by a bulldozer a couple of times. It's just gonna hurt.

Somehow, even with my socially awkward and socially unaaceptable behavior, I have made some friends and those friends I would love to call dorks have touched my in ways they I never thought anyone would. Somehow I found a new set of friends that made me feel equally special like my friends made me feel when I was in high school. It wasn't a lot but still it's something.

This block is not a block. Somehow it has become a piece of my heart that's vital to my survival. Not to the point that I would die without it, just to the point that my life wouldn't be complete without it. It's as simple as that. 

Once again....

Once again I feel like shit.

I feel like I want to kill every single one of the people I meet. Someone should seriously die or else i'll be in jail. 

I don't want to do anything today... I just want to lay down and watch 「Alice Nine」(though that technically counts as doing something). I just don't want to move around that much. I just want to lay around and do nothing.

I'm pissed off at everything today.
