Wow. How the hell can I get my hands on this?! Live-limited album sounds like a risky move.

btw DALLE has started putting their music up for streaming. Only the song “Killer Killer” and their album, “Ambivalance to Violent” is up as of this post.

Amazing there is gonna be a lot to like on this album. I love how well “D’espa composition with Ryo’s vocal” works seemingly with no adjustments needed lol

Yeah, I got a similar vibe from it too! It all kinda blends together for me so far, but seems like it could have a cool vibe when listened to in full, so hopefully they’ll deliver. :sunglasses:

three or so of those tracks jump right into 2004 style-wise, I don’t care for some poppier numbers, but for w/e reason this album already makes me appreciate how small and tight-knit the scene really is

even if despa are technically dead and we’ll probably never see them back, a combo of Ryo and some manic screaming works just as well.

" In addition, Mix Engineer SIN(M:2~8),
Trackmaker Яyo (M:9&10) participated in the album. "

I was wondering why I didn’t like the mix of the 2 last songs, now I understand… ! He throw his usual drums samples, and overcompress everything, like usual. (Seeds was my favorite, he destroyed it…)

I’m still glad they gave more songs to SIN (ex. Kagrra) it sounds better in his hands (ears). He knows his craft, it sounds so much more organic, even with a virtual drums.

The first songs SEEDS & LOVE THAT NEVER ENDS was played today on the radio NACK5 - BEAT SHUFFLE

I really liked to hear SEEDS, but LOVE THAT NEVER ENDS got my attention.

Besides, HEART was played as background between the interview and I loved and its my fav at all. Then afterwards was played as well the song DROP and its nice track.

the intro of LOVE THAT NEVER ENDS is quite cute but i like hahah

From the samples, this sounds like it could be very special.

The album cover looks like it reads ‘HLOEIS’.
