u did notice I posted the single too right? lol
Don't worry.. I don't hate you at all xDDbut I have to say I don't really like the single....the songs are not bad but they're beyond good. I know some might hate me for that, but that's my opinion. I agree with Gaxnela the single sounds commercialized. Of course I will go on supporting Alice Nine, but I don't like that developement lately. All of their newest songs sound almost the same.
yeah there typical character goes away. I missed the strong Guitarsolo's in the latest songs though. (i mention that already ^^) Those parts of the songs including shou's amazing voice is what catched me to listen to their music. I find it very pitty that the songs are more pop now.. But I begin to like it more and more. I really think that this single is better then the jewels single. I found White prayer a typical alice nine single though. But i really know what you mean.I'm missing the charakter, the story and the typical Alice Nine feeling in them. If Shou's voice wouldn't be different to a lot of other voices, the songs wouldn't remind at all to Alice Nine. The only one I like is "The Last Empire". Of course you can hear a musical development, like better timing (for guitars for example), a better bass-line or stronger drums, but the poppy sounds worries me. I hope that they really do what they want to do and not make music to be famous!!!
About the famous thingy,, There most be some kind of pressure. Now that they have been over sea's and stuff like that. The songs became more poppy and they have more fans then before.. So im sure that there is more commercial though. I can only agree with you in this partI agree with Gaxnela the single sounds commercialized
Hehe was it a bit to long xDD@Amaya
thanks for your long answer...it feels good to talk seriously about their music^^
and thanks for not hating me now^^
of course I still like their music...and I think you're right, they have a lot of pressure now, since they became really popular, maybe even popular than some older bands like Dir en Grey or the GazettE. The main thing I'm worried about is that they don't make the music they want, but making music to be famous. Music is my life and it would destroy me if I couldn't put all my emotions in my music and I really hope it's not that way in Alice Nine's case.
My favourite songs are still Kowloon and Yami ni Chiru Sakura!!!!
