[Past Music]

Here are the past reviews from my ‘Current Music’ list for your viewing and referencing pleasure (not included the lost list from old F blog T_T).

I’m guessing I’ll get it updated monthly?

No. Item Review
1 MUCC - Ageha [Single 2008.08.27] Ageha takes time to warm up. Sounded eerily of Laruku in intro (fyi ken produced it). But at its core, Ageha’s still very ‘Mukku’. Aoi Mori is a great cw + DVD is double charm for this single.
2 abs Japan Tour [DVD audio rip] Hmm. The dvd sounds better than just the audio. Desire is win!
3 Versailles P.Q. - PRINCE [Single 2008.09.14] Cool song. Keep up the good work, guys!
4 L’Arc~en~Ciel - Nexus 4/SHINE [Single 2008.08.27] Booring. Yick. I memang can’t stand them anymore.
5 NoGoD - Midori no kaze [Maxi-single 2008.10.08] A bit too normal… Read Go’s review.
6 Son Ho Young - I Know WOW! Judging by this single, 2nd album should be GOOD.
7 YMGA - Made in R.O.K Good ol YG Family gangsta rap is win. But synthetic Danny and Jieun is yuck.
8 Son Ho Young - Returns [Album 2008.10.09] I like
9 Minwoo - M Rizing [Album 2008.09.25] Minwoo is an awesome composer. Altho I prefer Explore M than this.
10 Rentrer en Soi - Megiddo [Final Mini Album 2008.10.22] A fitting goodbye gift from these indie boys. Sayonara, minna!
11 Seo Taiji - BERMUDA (Triangle) [Single 2008.10.24] Cool new song & MV. Loving the video game bridge.
12 Matenrou Opera - Spectacular [Maxi-single 2008.09.24] 2/3 sucky. Shinkirou has a nice guitar solo but hate the chink-chink and stereotype Malay band sound.
13 Kim Jong Gook - Here I Am [Album 2008.10.22] Guh. Disappointing. Sleep inspiring songs doesn’t bring out his potential.
14 girugamesh - MUSIC [Album 2008.11.05] Bleh. Too much disco kills the mood, ya know?
15 SID - Monokuro no Kiss [Maxi-single 2008.10.29] Boleh lah.
16 12012 - Aitai kara… [Maxi-single 2008.10.29] Ooh… nicely balladish and swayish.
17 Dir en Grey - UROBOROS [Album 2008.11.12] I’m no longer a fan, but this will surely drag me back in. Not regretting it either way.
18 NoGoD - Ao no daichi [Maxi-single 2008.11.05] hide-sama? Are you guiding them from there? :)
19 Acid Black Cherry - Jigsaw [PV] O_o;; I’ll reserve judgement til single release.
20 Kim Dong Wan - Promise [Single 2008.11.07] A heartfelt and uplifting gift for his fans ;)
21 Wheesung - With All My Heart and Soul [Mini Album 2008.10.29] Hrm. 50-50? He’s growing better, but the songs feel emptier.
22 30 Seconds To Mars - A Beautiful Lie [Album 2005.08.30] Slow I am. Cunted album this is. Dayam.
23 Deluhi - Mahadeva [Single 2008.11.26] Fuiyoh! Best giler macam D’esp.
24 Hwang Project - H.P. with Park Hyo Shin [Album 2008.11.20] Awesome album from Hwang Project, whom’ve worked with numerous big names previously.
25 Acid Black Cherry - Jigsaw [Single 2008.11.26] Normal ABC stuff. Jigsaw sounds better here than in the MV.
26 Exist Trace - Recreation Eve [Album 2008.11.26] I see now why Jimi endorses them so much. These girls are pretty good.
26 Jinkaku Radio - Shouko [Album 2003.04.06] Indie-ish, Kiyoharu-ish? Nice guitar work, might become a fan but this is their only album (so far)!
27 Danger☆Gang - St. Beast [Album 2008.07.23] Another all-girls outfit I read about from Jimi’s. Still murky, but their lives look like fun.
28 Sadie - Ice Romancer [Maxi-single 2008.12.17] Definitely better than Undead 13+2, unexpectedly defining their true talent.
29 Inoran - apocalypse [Album 2008.09.24] Thoroughly enjoying this album after Niraikanai, Ino writes good stuff.
30 DELUHI - JAGANNATH [Single 2008.12.31] Eep! Not as nice as Mahadeva…
31 Deathgaze - AWAKE -evoke the urge- [Album 2008.12.10] Eventho I’m not into death metal but, damn BEST!
32 KinKi Kids - φ [Album 2007.11.14] Heheh. A very guilty pleasure.
33 KinKi Kids - 39 [Album 2007.07.18] THIRTY NINE SONGS?!! 39 = San Kyuu = Sankiu
34 XodiacK - Owari no hajimari [Maxi-single 2009.01.01] Tho this got rave reviews, can’t tune into metal right now. Too KinKi-fied.
35 SID - 2ºC Me no Kanojo [Single 2009.01.14] Better than Monokuro, and loving the bootleg track.
36 alice nine. - Alpha [Album 2007.11.28] Chotto unpolished for me. Vocalist is bleh.
37 alice nine. - VANDALIZE [Album 2009.01.14] Verrry mainstream, I guess? “Subaru” is so Luna Sea, yes?
