For an album as sick and disturbing as this is under the surface, it’s such a fucking bop. One of the greatest rock albums I can think of honestly. The bass alone is a showstopper

Wow, wasn't expecting this to be this good. Agreed on the bass lines being pure quality.



PS: Shit man this is freaking awesome. It's like the Japanese crazy cousin of Rush

Plug, but you can refer to this when you’re done to see if our options align lol. Also, I’d recommend checking out the remix of insulated world at some point. Some good songs on there but the production is trash

macabre destroys kisou lol, so many great tracks. I think a lot of the fanbase dunks on it cause its very pop sounding and the production is a little muddy, but the songs themselves are great and they started experimenting with song structures and genre blending

Gauze kinda set the stage for the 2000s visual kei sound, so many imitators, none as good as this.
