PRECIOUS / HAMELN / SHIVER
Sooner or later I'll write this anyway...
PRECIOUS - ViViD
PRECIOUS
Ryoga-kun composed this song! This is basically a beautiful love song (although the lyric is quite painful). Easy listening. Shin-kun delivers the song perfectly with his great voice. They inserted a 'dark' part too in this song and it blends nicely with the whole melancholic song composition. Reno-kun's last solo guitar closes the song nicely...
Bright Red Garden
This is a rather new genre from ViViD. This song is rather jazzy. I'm not a jazzy person, and this track isn't my fave, but there's one thing I love about this song: it sounds 'complete'. The sound is rich, they used some instrumental sound effects which I like so much.
Survive
Yappari~ Reno-kun composed this song. After listening to the full version, this song has grown a lot on me. Nice! This song is rather 'heavy' but to me it's not 'noisy' enough. Dunno, it lacks of something, perhaps the sound distortion to make it sounds more 'roaring' in your ears. But, despite of that, this song is cool. The whole sound effects are properly inserted too.
悪女♂トリッキー (Akujo♂Tricky)
My fave track! The intro guitar sounds catchy, a bit heavy, really fun. The bass sounds thick and awesome. This song has the distortion which [Survive] lacks of. So, although the song preview sounds 'cute', this song actually sounds pretty much aggressive, noisy and youthful! Reno-kun & Ryoga-kun's solo guitars make a great combination here. And lastly, the theme/lyric is quite amusing. xD
HAMELN - vistlip
Hameln
I like the intro. Generally, this song is simple and cheerful, the thempo is quite up-beat but I can still feel 'touched' by this song; especially during the bridge (before Tomo's rap). Nice & sweet, giving you positive feeling.
Omoide CG
This one is my fave track! The intro sounds cool, I love the part where Rui's bass suddenly stops. It actually gives a certain cool effect. I always love the combination of Umi's growl and Tomonyan's vocal. The whole arrangement is actually interesting!
Tsuiraku
Compared to the previous tracks, this song sounds rather boring. The tempo is slow, but this song is meant to be a slow track, so let it be. xD This song is my least fave, but I like Yuh-kun's solo guitar, also Rui's bass part at the end of the song. Touching.
SHIVER - the GazettE
Shiver
This song sounds more like Gazette's songs during their older days. It brings back a nostalgic feeling, somehow. To me, this song is less complicated (for GazettE's standard) but I read somewhere that Ruki himself wanted this song to be easily understood; so I guess he successfully achieved that purpose.
Hesitating Means Death
This sounds heavier than [Shiver]. We finally can hear Ruki's growl here! Being a heavy track, this song lacks of dark tune though (but I'm sure it's their purpose). But during the solo instruments, the tune finally goes darker. Btw, I love Ruki's falsetto here. ^^
Naraku
My fave track. ^^ Well, this song sounds more like their DIM era (which I always like). The intro already offers a dark and painful tune; and I can enjoy the 'unhappy' feeling through the whole song. I like the last verse of this song, especially. The feeling I get from this song is similar to [Distressed and Coma].
Well I guess that's all. ♪
