Seems it was a staff mistake who uploaded it in low quality (i did’nt noticed). They lost 20k views :confused:

Not the best move, Youtube has a feature that lets artists/labels swap the video and keep the views, like with this (in 2010 we didn’t have 4k)

Well, there goes my hope that this would be an all-out rager. :sweat_smile: Sounds decent enough so far tho! Also it’s good to see the variety of songwriters, even in previews these songs sound quite varied to me (for lynch. standards).

they’re firmly in the “ai generated djent (10 hours)” territory, and things only seem to improve when they rip-off other bands directly (I hear a lot of gazette influence in crime, bleu, and sink, all of which are the only songs I can stomach out of previews)

calling me is probably the best one here so far, but I won’t be listening to any of that anyway once it comes out. I hope they go back to releasing singles at some point, covid CD they released was their strongest in a long time.

oh and the nice studio sound from ultima is seemingly gone too ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If sink has a good breakdown slapped in somewhere it’ll probably end up as my favorite :pray: I like the bass in nihil

Glad some big vkei names are coming back since some big names disbanded. There pv sounded good hope the album holds up for everyone I know there has been talk about thier sound being bland or something? To me they are decent I get a few lynch bangers and move on. My fav recent release had to be sinners. I feel like this band should have did some like best collection album re-records or something for their return instead of an album to give themselves more time to come up with more fresh new ideas.

Praying for another Ysk banger

pragma has a great nagoya feel, of course it’s a reo song

NIHIL, PRAGMA, CALLING ME, and SINK are the most appealing to me based on the previews. Overall happy with what I’m hearing on here.

Not much to really blow me away at this point, but I learned a long time ago not to trust previews. There’s definitely some promise in some of these tracks and the fact that all the members had a chance to put their stamp on the album is a nice change of direction.

I do kinda like NIHIL, CRIME and CANDY in particular but overall sounds like the album cover lol

Doesn’t really seem like anything new to set it apart from past releases unfortunately(Not that I dislike generic lynch, I still enjoy their music, but I don’t really feel much of a need to listen to the newer stuff over the old). I was hoping Hazuki would incorporate the vocal style he used in ALLERGIE, it would definitely set it apart from others, but that doesn’t seem likely. Also why did they choose such a bad album cover? It’s just like the limited version of ULTIMA but worse, at least imo. Anyway the most appealing songs to me after hearing the previews would be NIHIL and SINK.

Call me a fan, but I like everything I hear here. Excited for the full length.

Agree. There’s a lot of diversity here, even if it’s not all that heavy.

After listening longer previews (1:30 on Apple Music jp), as huge fan Iam so glad they finally did something new and different, no fillers, just 5 guys who did 2 songs each and you clearly hear the effort to try things, go in another direction.

I can’t wait to hear the full thing at midnight now and to have my copy.

(Ironically, (I saw CD photos on twitter) they put the lowest effort possible on this cover and edition : no alternative art for limited, random shoot, white borders, full black and white CD, only PV and making as bonus, no instrumental CD like the 2 previous albums, no live BD (I know they sell budokan separately but…). Well I prefer that way rather than good edition but generic album !)

Is this album region-locked to Japan only on Apple Music?
