i wonder if it’ll have a PV, probably not? if not it’s been quite a while since their last one

It looks like there won’t be a music video, just a live performance on April 13th. They didn’t even post any promo photos this time.

We really need a new maxi single. Oh well, live-only singles and the same setlist for the next 8 years!

Lime has said that he wants to write more songs this year. We’ll see)

kizu has basically been a cover band of their former selves for the last 4 years

Which is disappointing, because they were REALLY good.

For the past four years, they’ve been creating completely different and diverse music. I could say that most bands recycle the same motifs and harmonies for years, but that’s definitely not the case with them.

for the past 4 years theyve barely been creating music at all is what i am complaining about specifically, they used to make more music in their first year as a band than they have in the last 4 years and all their live shows are riding on the music they released in their early days

Sorry, I get you wrong. They could at least make the concerts a bit more varied by performing some of their older songs.

He’s really becoming that X Japan guy (to not be named) “when will we get a Kizu single?” we got a better chance of an X japan album

Lime is too busy taking care of sugar and recording them lol

They do still come up with some pretty good stuff now and then but it’s just a shame that their good stuff now is not a patch on their early stuff… I do enjoy some of the later songs, but a lot are just like “yeah that was ok” rather than leaving you like “whoa”. RED falls into the “ok” category, not bad, not great… and except the first like 4 seconds Lime literally does not stfu for the entire song. Obviously a song is expected to have vocals, but he’s just constant in this one… Give us a break plz tnx.

But it’s a matter of taste. I love the old songs, but I like the new direction more; they always had their identity, but now they don’t fit at all into any vkei categories, and I like that. The vocals in RED are exactly what thrill me, Lime is damn good in this style. But I like the song more live. If you haven’t heard, they will upload it on YouTube tomorrow. Also I enjoy My Bitch. I do love Kiyoharu, and the melody is in his spirit, but the sound is Kizu style. I hope they’ll release it one day.

??? The song is already out though.

The song is okay. Didn’t like the beginning, but after it picks up the pace, it becomes quite pleasant
