^ Good one! That 3-single campaign was just amazing, showcasing their diversity with top-notch songs. I don't like the RAVEN single tho, save for the title track (which is just okay).

 

Also, I love how they basically made an album's worth of exclusive (i.e. non-album-track) music inbetween actual albums. Talk about prolific! XD

Yeah, SM was pretty lame, from that viewpoint at least (well, maybe good for someone who just got to know about the band).

I don't think SM was great at all, though the re-recording of KILLING ME was really cool!

Still, if someone asks "what a MEJIBRAY is," I'll just send them Nepenthes and RAVEN.

^ Yeah, that sounds pretty accurate. xD Nepenthes totally sounds like a "typical" MEJI'song, with all the positive and not-so-positive aspects that might entail (not sure whether I wholeheartedly love it yet, but it's not bad).

The remake of Killing Me honestly makes SM worth it on it's own XD Could have just re-released the Killing Me single with the PV and all, but they did have a FUCKLOAD of unused singles so SM makes sense to wipe the slate clean and start fresh with RAVEN.

 

Trying to rank their singles:

-Shuuei

-A Priori

-Raven

-Decadance

-Karma

-Killing Me

-Sabbato

-Sadisgate

-Theatrical Blue Black

-DIE KUSSE

-Emily

-Avalon

 

Just off the top of my head, anyone else? Note: Based on the title track I'd pencil in Nepenthes between Raven and Killing Me but of course the b-sides could work for or against it. These are based on the single as a whole and not just the title track.

They are so fast, damn, I don't know how they release singles so fast.

 

And even if I love this band there are some song that are lame to me ._. even when I think they have a very unique sound (somentimes) 

 

As many of you, I think my favorite song is Raven, the Pv is great too.

 

The Theatrical album really liked me, (except for one or two songs). And even if it's not espectacular, it's great. 

Eiki was like - Tsuzuku porn spot XDDD ok no. It really had a nice sound. But  in general Tsuzuku changes his voice in a very nice and bad way sometimes ._. I still think he's great.

 

Danm it Koichi, when I though you couldn't suprise me anymore, just, started being more georgeous e_e! 

 

Meto, well, is Meto. 

 

And Mia, really man, you are so talented. I just love his guitar he plays so well. (Somethimes, he fixes all the sound XD) 

 

Well, they are great :3

My computer thinks the VENOMS.app folder is an actual .app application file. My poor computer is so confused. :lol:

Anyway, VENOMS.app might be my favourite MEJIBRAY release. It's sort of tied with THE "420" THEATRICAL ROSES. I'm honestly surprised by how much I'm hyping this release. I didn't have very high hopes for it since it was announced, although the previews did sound good, and I kept forgetting about the release date, but I guess a day or two ago, I started getting VENOMS stuck in my head, and I saw it on iTunes and was like, eh maybe I'll get it from the UK store since US gets snubbed and JP costs more.

I'm glad I did buy it, because I love it! Every song on this release is great! Even the ones that have throwbacks to previous songs. kairi and Until... are my favourites, and I love the symphonic elements. If other MEJIBRAY songs have had synthesised string arrangements, they haven't been done like this before. The songs on this mini are slower, which I really like. I think ACME is the only fast song on the mini.

I am feeling VENOMS.app HYPE! I might delete the SE bonus tracks, though.

^ That really varies, depending on who you ask, but my faves are probably Slivers.exe (mini album), Sabbat (single), KILLING ME (single). So basically the early stuff. Their "single trilogy" of A Priori, Shuuei and DECADANCE -Counting Goats etc... is also nice.

this is kind of cheating cuz its a singles collection but SM for sure, pretty much every song is killer.

SM is a no brainer

the b-sides from Shuuei, A Priori and decadence are awesome

 

The 420 is worth checking out even if you only like a few tracks, (Hungry Psychopath, Hatred x Tangle Red x Hunger Red are such)
