Just now.
Preordered シド's 「涙の温度」 limited versions A & B.
Bought 「chapter1」 limited verion B, 「smile」 limited version B and 「夏恋」 limited version A & B.
I regret not pre-ordering 「夏恋」, and not buying 「smile」 version A and 「御手紙」 version B when it's in stock in YesAsia. -__-
I was a terrible fan.
Now I want to do something to compensate so I ordered all limited edition singles available there. XD
Plus, another factor is that, when the GazettE announced the release date of their new single, I think I reacted more VIOLENTLY than when シド did the same. I feel guilty... X|
Because I listed them both as my 神盤.
Should treat them the same way shouldn't I.
Though their music styles are two extremes.
But they are the hottest bands in the young JRock scene aren't they. (シド is ちょっと JPop..)
And my desire to pre-order singles:
the GazettE: ★★★★★
シド: ★☆☆☆☆
Though for albums both of them would be ★★★★★.
I wonder if this means that シド is boring me... >__<"
Don't want that to happen of course, but once I got into them, I found that their older releases are far better than newer ones.
For the GazettE, they are of similar levels.
Music is a very personal thing.
For bands I try out, if I don't like it, I'll abandon it.
For bands I love, if I don't like the release, the next one would be their final chance.
So, after I dig myself enough that I figure I don't like them anymore, the album (prospectively speaking) would be their final chance.
I hope that their album would be overall less pop-py, still conveying an image of a rock band rather than a boyband-like band.
You know, シド isn't selling images alone. A band's core would still be music.
Attracting a wider fanbase but at the same time, maintaining your style, your music style and yourselves.
That's all fans would ask for.
I accept the fact that I'm a fangirl, but at the same time I look up a lot to the music.
Why on earth should I love you guys if you only have images but not music?
There're thousands of bands I can follow so, at least give me a reason to love.
