I listened to the new album yesterday (the whole day) and today, but I can't get myself to like it.
The solos are so bad...bad! The only solo, which is really beautiful is Riida's (I can't stop listening to it!). Nino's is so-so, but the others are terrible. I can't listen to them at all.
I love all the "old songs" on "Boku no Miteiru Fukei", but there are only three new songs that I really love ("kagero", "Gift" and "Mukae ni iku yo"). I sometimes like bits and pieces of other new songs (like "circus", the refrain is really nice, but the rest of the song is boring), but all in all I'm really disappointed.
I guess, it's my own fault. I was expecting a second "Time"-album, because in my eyes this album is Arashi's masterpiece.
Well, whatever. I'll not stop listening to them, because they have some songs I really love
, but I feel kinda let down after the new album.
@Beauty4123: Maybe "stupid" was the wrong word. Childish would be better. Aiba's and MatsuJun's solos sound so childish to me (in a bad way). I can't explain it were well, but I'm embarrassed to listen to them.
