I had to listen several times to LOVE again in order to make a
review (and I was too busy these days to be active on AHS ugh)
LOVE again it's a solid and cohesive album, so much cohesive that I thought I were listening to an 1 hour long song.
It's not a bad thing though, because I felt like Ayu was taking a long, emotional and deep chit-chat with me through music.
I have the same feeling while listening to ASFXX. LOVE again resemble more her first album than Love songs as others said before, imho. But with better vocals
. There aren't outstanding nor amazing tracks that make you speechless (her last one for me was BRILLANTE), but some good tracks yep. My favorites album tracks are:
Bye-bye darling (that guitar intro
)
SAKURA
petal
untitled for her... story 2
Single tracks:
ALL of them except You&Me
Overall it's a great album especially vocally and lyrically wise. I don't think it will be among my top 5 but it's far to be on my least favorites
.
I'd give a
8/10 to LOVE again.
