Just an SE so there's not much to say. I've heard worse, but I've also heard better~ ★☆☆ (okay)
02. F.O.P
Even though it's really aggressive, it doesn't leave much of an impression on me. I seem to forget it immediately! ★☆☆ (okay)
03. VIRGIN PAIN
I guess the band sees this as a representative song, and it is better than the first track, but I don't care for it overall. Some bits are cool (1:07-1:18) and the chorus is good, but it could be better somehow. ★★☆ (good)
04. UNBLESSED LOVE (Bonus track)
My favorite track! The opening is attention-grabbing, and, overall, the first half paints that singular sad emotion really well (and for me, the best songs are ones that express one emotion). The second half almost seems like a different song, but it works with the first part really well, and heightens the emotion of pain. Plus, I'm a sucker for repetitive sequences like that. ★★★ (love it)
05. WEIGHT OF THE LIFE
Aggressive like F.O.P, but much cooler. I love the breakdown! This is definitely a PERESTROIKA song-it's interesting how they managed to carve out their own niche with only two releases! ★★★ (love it)
06. NEGATIVISION
Surprisingly, I'm not in love with this song-I expected it to be sadder, although it probably is if you can understand the lyrics. But I do like it overall, and the extended outro is beautiful~ ★★☆ (good)
