I saw that and the track has a "Paul McCartney" feeling to it.

My copy of EPIC DAY is already in shipping process & this time round I choose not to buy the Taiwan press as I don't really need the DVD footages :x

Looking forward to hear EPIC DAY especially Las Vegas & Classmate in due time !

Wow unbelievable , I've just received EPIC DAY D:



Wow I'm completely stunned as this's the 1st time I've received something before the actual official release date oO

On that note , I wished that there were more pics of the duo inside the booklet -_-

The album looks nice Thanks for the pic
I ve just finished listening to EPIC DAY and as a first impression its okay. I have a few favourites but its too soon to pronounce myself. I m glad that there are only 10 songs because I hate when japanese artists make albums with 14-18 songs and half of them are fillers x.x
The thing with B z is that a lot of their songs are very similar at first listens or reminiscent of other self works but after a while I start to tell them apart. So, I hope this is the case with this album too.
What do you guys think about EPIC DAY?

[KarenPang]

On 1st look , for EPIC DAY to only have 10 songs might seem really stingy/little but most of the new songs are quite good

And as expected the tracks that have gotten short PVs and promo tie in's are the strongest sounding

My fave new album tracks are Las Vegas , Classmate & Amarinimo

Ironically EPIC DAY (the song) is only OK for my liking

That said , I hope EPIC DAY will sell well & considering B'z has been around for so long , I don't see why not ?

I just finished the album and I love all the tracks! But my favorites are Uchouten, NO EXCUSE, Classmate, and Kimi wo Ki ni Shinai Hi Nado. But, is it me or does NO EXCUSE and Mayday sound a bit similar? O.o

[KarenPang]

Yeah now come to think about it , NO EXCUSE & Mayday does sound quite similar oO

I wonder will the full PVs of Las Vegas , Classmate & Kimi wo Kinishinai Hi Nado would ever be released ?
