Dir en grey's The Marrow of a bone
Eventhough I was REALLY afraid to listen to Dir en greys latest Album "The Marrow of a Bone", I have to admit, that there are a few really nice songs on it.
My favourite is Track 09 ("Namamekashiki Ansoku, Tamerai ni Hohoemi").
Here I like the general atmosphere and espacially the desperate scream at the end. This song has this certain Diru feeling again (in contrast to agitated screams of maggots or whatever the song is called -.-), which I miss so much.
Further I like Track 01 ("Conceived Sorrow") and Track 10 ("The Pledge").
Then, of course, #06 ("Ryoujoku no Ame") and a few other songs...
But there are also songs that are now so typically for Dirus recent releases...Kyo just screams without feeling or whatever, just so that no one can understand lyrics or meening of the song anymore...probably because the songs are in english...(<- I guess this because of Clever Sleazoid...and I don't know if aggitated screams of maggots is also in english...I never felt the need to check for the lyrics...).
And on a side note..."ryoujoku no ame" and "clever sleazoid" are re-recorded versions...
(you can understand the "wither wither wither wither" etc in clever sleazoid now o.o and other things as well...)
Well, to sum it up...for me the album is a mixture of nice songs I really like to listen to (eventhough they are just a few T_T) and trash (or let's say not so nicely arranged songs) -___-"
BTW tomorrow I write my first japanese language exam *_*
So I have to go back to learn now ^^~
