stolen colours

Just some short inklings before I do full-blown posts:

Plastic Tree’s Utsusemi: very listenable album; though the songs are just too similar, with only a few standing out. Am loving Tetris (really want to see this live), Shayou, Fiction, GEKKO OVERHEAD (every time I see the word GEKKO I think of Eureka Seven), Melt and the album version of Replay. More later.

Mi Lu Bing’s sophomore effort, 三角行: they composed six out of nine songs on this album. I love their compositions, which are very different from anything you hear in the Chinese music scene. The other three are pretty meh. *skips*

Okay, today was rather fun.

I cannot stop listening to Ageha. Initially I didn’t really care much for how the song sounded like different blocks stitched together, but after repeated listening, it works really well. Initially my favourite bit was the chorus; but it’s now the intro/ending with the killer riffs and growling that I can’t get enough of. I really hope MUCC plays this when they come in November. (rie: this single is produced by Ken! *will say anything to get rie to listen*)

Waiting for the Plastic Tree single to arrive in the mail; mainly because I want the acoustic live performance.

The Kurosagi movie was a disappointment. The series was blatantly a Yamapi vehicle, but the pacing was good and the side characters stole the screen most times. The movie was sleep-inducing with too many unnecessary scenes and the over-used Shakespeare analogies. Just watch the last 20 minutes of the movie. The rest…fast-forward. Or timeskip. (And Yamapi: please watch your English!)

Anyway, I went over to lynn’s and squealed with delight at the outfit she’d made. XD XD XD XD.
How’s the weekend before we go to Taiwan?

So I was having a conversation with my J2 sister while we were shopping at AMK hub:

I’m writing this post because I might forget all the bands that I’ve listened to and want to follow because I liked their releases. Here goes!

I swear,  acid black cherry has the bestest PVs around!

20th Century Boys
This PV introduces a new persona for the guys: fangirls. They start out as this bunch of really dorky-looking girls sitting awkwardly on some steps outside a music studio. Along come three hot bitches in platforms and upturned noses. And then! acid black cherry (the band!) emerges proper from a vehicle! So the fangirls try to get handphone photos, but their view is painfully blocked by the bitches. Never mind. Everyone troops to the dressing room, where our poor fangirls get trodded upon by the aforementioned platforms.
