2.5 averageOssacip Olbap | November 11th 23

high energy nudecore with smatterings of nippop. but that energy is about all they got

3.7 greatErwann S. STAFF | October 18th 21

An all-around fun album with elements of hardcore, punk, some extreme metal riffing, and sometimes cool energetic choruses. It's basically alt metal 101, done extremely well: heavy enough to feature some trve headbanging moments, and catchy enough to lure newbies.

A about an hour in length "Yoshu Fukushu" is fairly long, but despite the runtime it's definitely not wanting of content. These guys are basically the Japanese equivalent to System of a Down--wildly chaotic, genre-twisting metal that can cover loads of territory and switch ideas on a dime, whilst constantly retaining a "fun" and often "silly" atmosphere, but amped up a few notches "because Japan". This is how down-tuned nu metal riffs were supposed to be used.

4.5 superbqdgyu | December 28th 13

Super fun, creative, heavy, and full of energy. Tight musicianship, and vocals are as diverse as ever.

4.5 superbTorii | August 4th 13

Fucking awesome as fuck fuck fuck. Is not as "PARTY MUSIC" as Buiikikaesu, but holy hell if I didn't enjoy the hell out of this album. AOTY contender for me.

It's just jam-packed full of awesome tracks. You might not love like every single one of them, but you are
guaranteed to enjoy at least a handful! Stylistically it feels a lot more mature than their previous albums. It
feels more 'up to date' so to speak, and you can definitely hear the influences from genres like sludge metal,
thrash metal, hardcore punk, funk, and even some death metal influences. Some really well-written tracks
here, and I'm really glad that they managed to 1-up their previous album which is generally considered one of
the best Japanese rock/metal albums. Personal favourites are tracks 1, 3, 6, 9, and 13.

Bump

3.5 greatexpassion | July 31st 13

After first listen, my general impression is that Bu-ikikaesu surpasses this album in everything. Everything. It's not bad though.
