The music video for Sextape is seriously breathtaking.

Besides, someone has put 'Rivière' (from SNW) on Breakbot's 'Fantasy' video. They surprisingly fit well together :

I kind of like this album but it is just... missing something. It doesn't feel like there is a real theme to this album just a bunch of songs kind of slapped on a disc and here it is. If anyone knows what the band's vision was for this album or lyrically the vision I'd be interested in hearing it.



White Pony is a million miles ahead of this album because of its extremely well executed theme, its sexiness and mystery as well emotion but this is drastically a step down in all of those areas from White Pony, although I suppose they aren't supposed to be the same.

"I kind of like this album but it is just... missing something. It doesn't feel like there is a real theme to this album just a bunch of songs kind of slapped on a disc and here it is."

Exactly why I prefer KNY. More care put into the full product

"If anyone knows what the band's vision was for this album or lyrically the vision I'd be interested in hearing it."

Musically, I think it represents them coming together as a band again, if that makes sense. Lyrically, though it's open to interpretation, I can't help but think most of these songs are about Chi, or things related to his situation (death, heaven, hope, etc.).

"White Pony is a million miles ahead of this album because of its extremely well executed theme, its sexiness and mystery as well emotion but this is drastically a step down in all of those areas from White Pony, although I suppose they aren't supposed to be the same."

I think this is a different kind of sexy/mysterious; a more intimate, gazing at stars and city lights kind of sexy, rather than the dark, neo-noir feel of White Pony.

I still haven't heard KNY, but I'm still kind of just getting into this band, although I listen to White Pony a lot and have been for quite a few months now.



I really like the bands lyrics and atmosphere but it all feels under-utilized to me if it isn't going towards some theme.

I'll try giving this a listen with this sentiment in mind, thanks.

Yeah, no problem. This band can sometimes be kind of tricky to get into, since all their albums sound quite a bit different, so don't get discouraged if the next album or two you spin don't hit you as hard as WP

This is actually a really good interview with Chino and Abe, it covers the band's beginning to the release of Koi No Yokan. Really cool.
