Eh? Sounds good, but, what happened to 三日月の恋?

The album has 10 tracks:

1) Dance with God
2) YOUR ORDER
3) Melody
4) Lemon Drops
5) FOXES
6) Beyond the Moon
7) JOURNEY STROBE
8) Ameagari ni mita Maboroshi
9) LIFE SIZE LIFE (the bag is small, and I don't enter)
10) Primer Beat

I recorded this off a poster in Budokan, I'll upload the video sometime in the future (I have about 50 minutes of footage).

babelfish is a piece of junk, so "Beyond the Moon" makes sense. Good find, TA and Brye!

Babelfish can get simple phrases right. It'd either be translated as "New Moon Love" or "Crescent Moon Love," so they either changed the title or dropped the song I guess?

Lemon Drops sound a bit like Over Amp, but sexy bass, and promising sound.

Foxes might be interesting, we'll see.

Beyond the Moon might be the keeper from this album, the raw emotion in Sawao's vocals sounds great.

Johny Strobo could be decent, but I'll hold out until we hear more.

Ameagari is great of course. <3

Primer Beat has a kickass straight-up jazz bassline, and I really dig that. The old-school vibe could turn out awesome.

As for the rest, the more active bass in this album is definitely great, but I really hope the songs themselves are more interesting than the previews. Nothing really grabbed at me from any of the other songs worth writing about.

Dance With God - Sort of a Private Kingdom chorus/Last Holiday kicked in the pants sort of thing. Could be decent. There seems to be some interesting Frontiers-style lead after the "DANCE! WITH! GAHD!" bit, so that's cool.

YOUR ORDER: the pillows have written this song before. But I can't remember if it was called Mighty Lovers, Bite Me, Skinny Blues, or Purple Apple. MEH.

MELODY: We already knew this song is pretty weak. The best part of this song is when Sawao introduces live, and says "MERODII!"

Lemon Drops: Best track of the album, hands down. Actually good shit here. Gives me a really Over Amp/Kim Deal feel. This should have been the single, instead of Ameagari.

FOXES: Sawao, you're not Cobain. Save this kinda stuff for The Predators. You can't just fuse the verse of ISLAND with the chorus of something like CRS or WILD TIGER or something.

Beyond the Moon: Pitchy, straight forward, kinda boring. Nothing to see here, folks. This is going to sound like ass live, vocally.

JOHNNY STROBO: Anyone asleep yet?

Ameagari: you already know if you like this track.

LIFE SIZE LIFE (the bag is small,and I don't enter): See YOUR ORDER.

Primer Beat: If the pillows are gonna do this sorta Thats a Wonderful World-style, doowop-ey, swing beat sorta stuff, they should just dedicate and release an entire album in this style. I'm beginning to think it's the only style Sawao can write attention grabbing songs in anymore. For me, at least.

Verdict: My Foot > WU > PP >>> OO.
I think the only redeeming thing in this song is going to be Lemon Drops, which sounds amazing, and Maaaaaybe Dance With God if we're lucky.

Sawao really has to kick this habit of writing really "novelty" one-trick pony songs like YOUR ORDER and LIFE SIZE LIFE. Manabe's riffs have been getting increasingly "quirky" since around Tokyo Bambi/it's solo. Not really their typical pop rock sound, not really rocky/bluesy, just sort of...funhouse ditzing around. I don't know how to explain it.
:cry:

I can see why you're saying that.

I only see that in a very few particular songs, so no.

Sawao's vocals all (minus Ameagari) sound like the Rock Stock Funny Bunny.

Also, I think Dance With God will kick ass!
