Also a two minute clip of Un Deux on Youtube!

Yay

. They tried to take the payment for mine about an hour ago but I don't get paid until midnight so whoops lol. I heard something about an EU version being delayed until January 23rd. That or I imagined it :pac:

Links234 · 08-12-2014 7:37pm

Yeah, read something like that on their facebook before like a week ago or something, but can't find it now. Don't think the EU release will be anywhere near as awesome as the Japanese limited editions though, I think it's only the normal and 2CD version we'd be getting.

There was a double vinyl for Dum Spiro Spero. I''ll be quite content with the Japanese version anyway

Somebody had a really insane copy of Uroboros on Vinyl up on adverts.ie a while back, didn't get it because I'm not so much into vinyl

Reiketsu · 08-12-2014 8:34pm

That'd be the deluxe version with two cds, double vinyl and DVD if I remember correctly. The limited edition of ARCHE is looking quite tame in comparison :pac:.

Oh, by the way! I said I'd get pics of the new Maximum The Hormone album, because it's a really cool edition with a freakin' comic book. No joke! But it's more than a little NSFW, so if anyone wants to see it, let me know and I'll PM you

Kyo's screams sounding great in that

It seems to be a continuation of the Saku and Kodou videos. My copy is sitting as "Preparing for Shipment" on Amazon now. Estimated delivery is tomorrow....Unless the plane drops it at my doorstep that is never going to happen!

Reiketsu · 09-12-2014 5:29pm

Middling quality, but I'll take it :pac:

Links234 · 09-12-2014 6:07pm

Ah, can't watch that, potato quality >_< I'll wait for my Christmas present and see it then

Reiketsu · 09-12-2014 6:18pm

Haha, it's not the worst tbh! My order still hasn't shipped. Everyone I know that has ordered it are on the same boat, no matter where they ordered it from. Japanese fans have theirs but aren't sharing the wealth as usual.

Links234 · 09-12-2014 7:38pm

Well, it appears my order has just shipped, got a tracking number with DHL, so hopefully yours should be also

Reiketsu · 09-12-2014 9:08pm

Hasn't been shipped just yet but hopefully soon! Got my hands on it anyway :P

Reiketsu · 09-12-2014 10:22pm

Okay, y'all can do your top ten albums of the year now that it's out because ARCHE needs to be on it....holy crap.

Links234 · 09-12-2014 10:51pm

I'm thinking that Arche is seriously gonna overshadow a load of other releases... I'm pretty excited for the new D, Sadie, Nocturnal Bloodlust, and new Jupiter albums too. Also may have snatched up that new Matenrou Opera

Reiketsu · 09-12-2014 11:09pm

Ah yes, really looking forward to The Omnigod in particular

. I'm nearly finished my second listen of Arche now. Uroko immediately stands out for me. And Phenomenon. And Tousei. And Kaishun, Behind a Vacant Image....

Links234 · 09-12-2014 11:20pm

Yeah, The Omnigod should be absolutely class

I'm not gonna listen to Arche until I actually get the album at Christmas, don't want to spoil the anticipation! Mostly getting albums for xmas from everyone

Also means I gotta wait until then to listen to the new D album Kingdom too

Reiketsu · 09-12-2014 11:45pm

Ah god no, not a chance I could wait to listen to it if it was available. I have no patience :P. This has bettered my expectations anyway!

Links234 · 09-12-2014 11:48pm

The anticipation is mighty! But I'm all buzzed about Christmas anyway

By the way, you listen to The Gazette? What did you think of Beautiful Deformity? They're a band I'd adore to catch live.

Reiketsu · 09-12-2014 11:55pm

I cant get into them at all :O. I don't hate them either though. I'm sure you'll have the chance some day

.

Links234 · 09-12-2014 11:58pm

It actually took me a bit to get into them. Picked up Division and listened to it a good few times until I really go into it, been trying to get my hands on more of their back catalogue, got Stacked Rubbish and now Toxic, some seriously good albums

What about Nightmare?

I really like them, they're very different to the usual

Reiketsu · 10-12-2014 12:09am

Wouldn't say I am overly familiar with them but I do like that song

. Will have to listen to them further!

Links234 · 10-12-2014 12:20am

Awesome!

I'd say most people would know them from the opening theme of Death Note, so if you've ever seen that, this'll be well familiar to you

Midlife Crashes · 11-12-2014 12:09am

Just listened to Arche ....Wow :eek: Absolutely incredible.

Reiketsu · 11-12-2014 12:25am

I can't stop listening to it. I already love it more than Dum Spiro Spero. There are elements of their older sound during the album at times but it still sounds really fresh. I didn't have any doubt this would be album of the year for me but I can confirm it now :P.
