Finally 優介 has joined 摩天楼オペラ as official member.
To be honest , this is my favourite line-up since they formed,
and the song 真っ白な闇がすべてを塗り替えても is a mega masterpiece,
so many bloody layers of powerful instrumental x extreme high pitch vocal to digest.
I loved these guys when they first came out but I haven’t bought any of their albums since Kassai to Gekijou no Gloria. I’ve been umming and ahhing over whether to get this, but having heard these samples I’m sold, it sounds absolutely fantastic.
