Ah, is that who she is, haha. Their website's just too odd right now, weirder than it's ever been. Oh yeah, the slight alteration in the TJ logo there, does that make any difference in its meaning or anything?

/edit/

Oh, and btw:

Adult rocks so hard.

Damn.

The new Jihen album is good, but for some reason it isnt sticking in my head. This is stressful because I was such a big Ringo fan and there isnt a single song on the album that gets stuck in my head.

I'm loving this one so far (unlike the case with 'Kyouku'), will have to listen to it a few more times before I can list my favourites though.

Looks like I'll have to pick this one up when there's an OS release.

It may take some time - I'll admit straight away that KZK took a lot of time before it really got stuck in my head, and it's my favourite Ringo solo album. I love the sound of the new TJ album and, although it's not stuck in my head yet, I'm sure that will happen - just as with Kyoiku, which I totally loved as well.

sxesven, or anyone who has listened to the new album:
Is Shuraba -ADULT Ver.- very different from the single version?

From Yahoo! Auctions Japan. Looks like the special packaging is the type they used for Nakashima's "Oborozukiyo~Inori" and SPEED's "Carry On My Way."





BanFan - > Softer drums, jazzier guitars, and less noise.

I prefer the single version of Shuraba, it had cooler effects and it was a richer song, but the album version is still pretty good, the best song in the album even with the changes. The ending of the album version, though, is actually much cooler than the single version..."a la WONDERLAND" I would dare to say.
This album is definitely much better than Kyoiku but there are still a great proportion of forgettable tracks. And the fact they "plannified" the album by making shuraba jazzier made it a bit too homogeneous. Ah, and Superstar and Blackout are excellent songs indeed.

Thanks for the 'Shuraba' info ~K+ and ImpactBreaker.

*Can't wait to get his copy of the Korean Version*
-----------------------------------------------
One more question: Does the booklet have color themes? They did white in Shuraba's PV, black on the Shuraba packaging and green for the promo shot in my signature. I'm really hoping for some cool colors.

My favourite tracks at the moment from the album has to be Tegami (this track rocks hard), BLACKOUT, and Keshou Naoshi at the moment.

'Tegami' has that awesome build-up to end the album with a bang like 'Souretsu'. The distortion at the end of 'Keshou Naoshi' that seems completely out of place with the rest of the song is fantastic too.

And bits and pieces of SUPERSTAR reminds me of Gibbs.

My favourite is actually "Superstar", BECAUSE it does reminds me of "Gips". "Tegami" is my 2nd favourite.

I'm actually planning on getting all her solo albums, but as usual, I'm faced with real monetary constraints. Also, they seem to be rather hard to find over here.

But I thought Adult was quite impressive compared to a lot of the other stuff that's out on the market these days. At least I didn't have to skip a lot of tracks. Kyoiku was a little too jarring on the ears IMO, however fun it sounded.

This thread is so dead o_o Sad, considering I love Ringo and Tokyo Jihen to death.

I'm so addicted to "Jusui Negai" right now, such an awesome song

BTW: Their new DVD titled "Just Can't Help It" is up for pre order on CDJapan right now.

I love when they played Sourest as an opening. All these kids came out and sang with Ringo while wearing bunny ears. They rock so much, even though I was dissapointed with Adult.

^^ I can see why you though it was dissapointing - Kameda like..took over on Adult. I myself thought the album was too slow, even though I love it tons. I wonder how Ringo feels sharing the power now..since Kyoiku is basically a Shiina Ringo solo album in disguise.
