LOVING it so much. So far, nothing has disappointed me.

I haven't listened to the previews. Trial sounds pretty good.

I really like the direction the pillows decided to take with this album. From the previews, it feels like they expanded upon the groundwork they originally laid through Movement and Gloomy Night. Good stuff.

Wow, this is really good! Not only is the song wonderful, but the video wasn't full of ridiculous animation or random white guys. 10/10. Really looking forward to this album.

Yo, I just noticed the video director's name and thought it looked familiar. Does that say, "junya Lucy imai "?

Yeah, he directs almost all of their PVs. I usually think his work is boring, but Trial is really nicely done.

"Claus!!" I'm Mafu "CLAUS". Lose the "e". kids!
But I'm glad I could contribute something cool! I have first access to this stuff since I'm in Japan, so I wanna let my friends and dedicated fans see it as soon as possible.

God damn Tim Allen and his confusing movie titles which contain puns that are too complicated for their target demographic.

I like Manabe's funky lead riff...

You better not flame, you better not troll, you better not bitch I'm telling you why! Mafu Claus is bringing pirrows tonight!

I haven't noticed before, but Satou is using Zildjian cymbals... Was just wondering if he was also playing with some new gear. I really liked the looks of that yellow kit from the New Animal PV.

And at the end, I was expecting a typical doubling of the chorus and got swerved with more lyrics, then the lead, then a repeat of the first two lines of the verse. It's a great tune.
