Warlords of yesteryear and a future that's coming down the pike will eventually come to terms with diversification, thereby introducing a world where the sky is more than merely the limit. Said realm is also home to visual kei rock band Merry from Tokyo. On the Japanese music group's 2005 studio album Nu Chemical Rhetoric, it's as plain as the nose on one's face that these boys are indeed an exceptional bunch. Offering a generally cohesive collection of songs whilst making a conscious effort to utilize various sounds such as blues, punk, and alternative, this is yet another J-Rock act who like to prioritize quality over quantity - which is of course a good thing. The record isn't perfect by any stretch, considering "Nisemono Tengoku" is pretty unremarkable and "Diginote" really has no place to be on here, but there's still worthwhile, intriguing amusement to be had with Nu Chemical Rhetoric. Some neat songwriting ideas and very strong craftsmanship to boot.
