 Re: [2010.12.01] MOVEMENT - New Single I hope this single doesn't feature Sawao's silly-esque songwriting. Your Order is coolio, I suppose, but songs like Rodeo Star Mate and Tokyo Bambi have a little bit too much  in it. Also, I don't quite fancy the new guitar tones they've adopted since Pied Piper. To me, it makes the music seem a little stale.I want some over-the-top, superdriven tones (Cherry, Another Morning, We Have A Theme Song). Sorry to have beaten a dead horse.

Re: [2010.12.01] MOVEMENT - New Single The change in tone could be related to the fact they've all changed gear since that time. Manabe swapped his Big Muff fuzz distortion for an MXR pedal, and Sawao switched from an Ampeg stack to Orange amps.

But the Orange was around at least as far back as Good Dreams, no?

Re: [2010.12.01] MOVEMENT - New Single Just turn up the gain and distortion. Maybe lower the mid a little bit.

Manabe has been using an Orange OR120 'Overdrive' amp and cab since Please Mr. Lostman, and Sawao has been using an Ampeg 'Reverb Rocket' up untill My Foot. The switch occured between My Foot/Wake up as far as I know and he's playing an Orange Combo now.

And I might be wrong but..
I think another reason might be the production work in the Avex Trax.
I know [i]nothing[/i] of their previous personnel in the studio or the process of recording but I can't help but notice that their new tracks have been [i]emphasizing[/i] sawao's vocals lately..maybe a bit too much?..
But whether or not that's the label or the pillows own doing...
I can't say.

Re: [2010.12.01] MOVEMENT - New Single For sure, man. Sawao is definitely in his African Child stage. He just needs an overweight yet enthusiastic producer.

Re: [2010.12.01] MOVEMENT - New Single I'm oddly optimistic, maybe because this song doesn't have a goofy title I can't take seriously. But yeah, Japanese stuff doesn't leak much, especially if it's a relatively obscure band. Ling Tosite Sigure's new album leaked about a day before its official release, but that's about as good as you're going to get.

I guess that could be construed as "sucking".

Re: [2010.12.01] MOVEMENT - New Single It's funny, I saw a billboard ad promoting IMPACT font today...

Re: [2010.12.01] MOVEMENT - New Single I really like most of the album covers, but this exhaustive use of Impact is getting a little annoying. MOAR SONO MIRAI WA IMA-LIKE ART, LESS IMPACT TITLE AND PILLOWS LOGO ONLY!
