seeing as Hunting!!!! is the 2nd top selling album on CDJapan, many people should be getting it in the next 2-3 days.

I got my copy yesterday. :)

I dig the entire album but I am especially fond of Mustang Hippy.

I love Bakuon Drop for some reason, but the other six songs just don't do it for me. :(

I got a great mental image for that.

edit: the predators remind me of PL grungified or something.

[quote="clouds drive monster"]edit: PML grungified or something.[/quote]

Where can I get some of that?

Ok, I'm gonna grade the tracks now.

1. Bakuon Drop---------C+
The song is catchy, in an annoying way, but I really hate the vocal thing Sawao does at 0:22.

2. Recall Me--------------B
After the crappy single, I think the album gets better, and I start to see that Sawao is imitating [i]Nevermind[/i] in some ways. Nirvana-esque intro works for me. I like the verse, but the chorus is cookie cutter.

3. Dizzy Life--------------C-
I liked it at first, but after a few listens, it got really old. The verse sucks, and the chorus isn't special, either.

4. Sleepy Dragon--------A-
Despite iffy guitar moments, I really like this song. The verse has a cool vibe, and Sawao sings in a tolerable tone. The chorus sounds like he's saying something pretty emo, but I'm not sure what it is, so I'll let it slide.

5. Mustang Hippy--------B-
It's ok.

6. Lizard Man-------------C-
Pretty lame, I think. It stays above a D because I like Shinpei's snare work under the guitar solo.

7. Last Hunting-----------B-
Again, I hear echoes of Nirvana, and I am a confessed Cobain fan. This track isn't anything special, but I have a soft spot for attempts to imitate Nirvana.

The Predators earn an overall GPA of 2.6 from me. (Yes, I did the math.)
I'd give the mini-album a B minus. There are a few on there I kinda like, but the rest are pretty bland. The album sounds to me like some timid kids trying to be dark and grungey, and it doesn't work the whole time.
