Glad to see people listening to this. I thought it was a hidden gem of last year.

Agreed. I like the musical versatility of Senjyu a bit more, but this makes up for the lack of variety with more focus. I'm curious to see how Hayato decides to close off the trilogy.

We'll just have to see, but he's getting stronger and more consistent with every release, so I can bet it'll be a knockout

the instrumentation in this still is so absurd to me. watching the guitar and bass playthroughs and it's just not fair

Insanely talented. I met them on their UK tour and their modesty is as large as their talents.

I bet, they seem like relaxed chaps indeed. I'll have to give this another go, but frankly I didn't really enjoy this as much as their first album however scattered it was. might change my mind on that though.

Even if you didn't like it as much, you can surely admit it was a hell of a lot more consistent.

Finally got a few good listens in of this. Whoa, awesome. It's like Sikth meets Gorod with some J-metal fun thrown in for good measure. Love it.

I actually think Yoin-Joujou is my favourite jam on this at the minute. The guitar riffs are so fucking cool in that chorus.

Favorite song is definitely the closer. So mellow for so long I honestly thought it would just end that way. That bust out at the end is epic as fuck.

I conducted another interview recently with Hayato, which was really fun to do. i don't know when i'll get around to transcribing the interview, but the video is up now.
