only two for a song that says "god has fled from the face of this imperfect world?"
=( i liked the air resister quite a bit more than degeneration.

I swear. I need a place where I can get this album without going through hell. I already hate 2 places just for the lousy ass service. I was suprised when I actually got my Happy Bivouac. The case came scratched.
What is the best place to get this CD at?
I heard March of God and I just have to say. Kickass.

I've used CD Japan to import all of my Pillows CDs, and I've never had a problem. I suggest giving them a shot. (But if you don't have Please Mr. Lostman, you ought to get that instead  )

I still think the album is mediocre, but I'll add KUCHUU REJISUTA as being pretty good.

I'm digging this album. I'd have trouble singling out least-favourite tracks. It's not really the kind of album where any one cut stands out as being particularly awful.
Like Good Dreams, the album has a very cohesive feel, but I think it's a little too homogenous for it's own good. The songs are great, but they are much more similar-sounding to one another than the tracks on, say, Happy Bivouac.
I kind of wish that they had used the b-side version of My Girl. That percussion-free version had such an incredible sound, and it would have injected a little more variety into a disc that's already kind of dominated by mid-tempo pop-rock songs. It would have sounded great placed right before a "bigger" cut like March of the God or Rock 'n' Roll Sinners... like a quick breather before your face gets rocked off.
My favourite songs so far are So Long Universe, Mighty Lovers, Nonfiction, Gazelle City and March of the God. I guess that's kind of a lot of favourites, but like I said, this isn't an album where any one song is really jumping out at me. I like those five because they all seem just a little more unique than the other cuts, which are maybe a little more "generic" Pillows.
Anyhow, those are my thoughts! More than anyone needed to know, I'm sure.

Hey, I gave it a B. Now I'd probably give it B+, but only because I idolize Jomei and I just love hopping on all the latest bandwagons.
It's not like the song grew on me or anything. Nah...

I didn't even see Jomei's post on "Air Resister".
Hard to believe, huh?
