It's been 2 years since I last listened to this. Think I'll listen to this or their Budokan live for this this week.

Album Rating: 5.0

diru are one of those bands I've noticed (for me personally) sound samey when listening to a bunch of songs in a row, but in isolation a ton of their songs slap so hard.

That describes my vibe on this album so accurately

Album Rating: 4.0

yeah i'm listening to it rn and i swear to god the start of Midwife is just Chain repulsion but slightly slower

Word. End of Midwife sounds like hell incarnate though

I think that was my only complaint about this album, in that it felt slightly bloated in the middle section.

Album Rating: 4.0

yeah a whole lot of redundant tracks

Album Rating: 4.5

I dig Midwife, the second half especially as Johnny was saying is amazing. Best track on here if probably Behind a Vacant Image for me though, although ive probably listened to Uroko the most overall

Album Rating: 4.0

think my fav's always been Tousei

Album Rating: 4.5

Really good pick^

Album Rating: 5.0

yeah it's next level good

Album Rating: 5.0

*waves the lone flag of Kukoku being best on this album*



Also regarding Chain/Midwife: The guitars are similar yes but the bassline at the start of Midwife is completely different and the guitars change it up after 12 seconds so I'm not seeing it.
