This album picks you up with strong feeling. Surely it's not a perfect 100 album and the songs are very similiar to each other. But, it is great at what it does. I enjoyed it.
What can I say... I am a sucker for Kawai Japanese metal bands. I was excited for their new album release and their show in Prague (Czechia). And I am not dissapointed with the album. Actually it's a banger. Very experimental with synths and electronics. Screamers vocals are just crisp fu**ing amazing and the second vocalist gives it a very nice Japanese tradaitional vibes. Overall this album was my discovery of the year so far. Love it!
This album Is a massive downgrade from previous albs.
Especially Revolutions and Violent pop.
You can clearly hear, how The Oral Cigarettes experimented with guitar And bass. Sure there are maybe few not as good songs, but 5150, Catch me, WARWARWAR, DIP-BAP and End Roll, make up for them double the Worth.
I have listened to this so many times... I just love it. I feel like Shigenobu Suzuki's guitar and Masaya's drums are uncontested in music industry.
