At first I was a bit hyped about a new cd, but Twilight Flower, Beast side and Diabolos et Angelie are all very weak songs IMO... makes me wonder what kind of cd it will be. Hopefully the recorded versions are better than the "demo live" ones.

Well I'll probably buy it out of obligation. Hopefully it's better than D+Sect. ::mana::

The show was awesome O___O

I had no idea how evil Seth could make his death growls become.

Anyways, the new songs... hmm...

Nothing really stuck out on first listen, unfortunately. I reserve room for them to grow on me at a later date. They were very high-energy and growly but the chorus wasn't melodic enough for me to stay interested. Mildly more reminiscent of Beyond the Gate and D+SECT than any earlier work.

Mana brought out a bottle of jack at one point and the guitarist chugged a good 1/4 of it. He had dreads and crazy eyes. The show itself was a lot of fun, the crowd was very interesting and everyone was really nice. Finally getting to see mana in person was unreal (my memory feels like it never actually happened, actually.) There was one point Seth was saying all kinds of Japanese things as he was reading words from mana, mana was kind of looking down the whole time biting his lip and looking really sad/ uncomfortable. I imagine he was, actually, sad and uncomfortable. But by the end of the show he got pretty sassy.

There's going to be two more lives in March.

One of the new songs, I believe it is "Twilight Flower" is so good. It was really really cool and the studio version is going to be killer. I want to listen to it again RIGHT NOW! It had a violin loop and cool spooky female chanting breaks and everything I love about mana's music about it. It reminded me of his work with Kanon Wakeshima. :)

I don't really know what else to say! If you have any questions I can try to answer.

Were they in their usual costumes?

They had glittery butler-looking outfits. Sugiya wasn't wearing any makeup lol, Seth had his usual eye patch and Mana was very mana-esque with hints of blues in his outfit and a glowing cross on his guitar.

Mana always looks down when Seth talks, and honestly I don't get it XD A friend of mine has the teory that he does so to drawless attention to him since all the fangirls are going MANA SAMA nonstop otherwise:P

New album, such a great (and so waited) news! Thanks a lot for sharing this news!!

Well, if I correctly remembered... this dress of Seth was the same like the last year... But his hair color is bit funny

Hayato looks... <3

I want him to do another big crazy orchestral song like Dialogue Symphonie. I don't dislike the newer style (Deus ex Machina is one of my favorites also), but I miss those kinds of songs.
I also like the poppy sounding ones like Pageant, but I guess Mana didn't really like it so who knows. Maybe it reminded him too much of MM.

Did you try to take pictures and get thrown out? ::meev::
Any new merchandise?
Any celebrities hanging out at the back trying not to be noticed? ::kozi::

Hate their look! Mana is like a Christmas Tree as I said time ago, He is using so much stuff in his body!!!. Why not wear "casual" or elegant, hes not the owner of Moi-meme-Moitie?

Pageant was always the odd one out, but it's a lot of fun. I hope he does more songs like that in the future for more variety.
(The melody also reminds of Marmalade Sky by Kanon Wakeshima, for whatever reason.) I remember how fun it was to see Pageant on the Scars of Sabbath DVD because it just came out of nowhere and was completely unexpected with how bouncy it was, nestled in with all the KOROSE! nu-metal songs.

When has Mana ever dressed "casual" for a concert though? ::meev::
The only instances I can recall are if they're promoting a tour shirt, in which cases he still has a bunch of junk on his head.

Woah, who's the guy in the back? He looks kind of terrible... I feel like a jerk for saying that, but that's my opinion!

I don't like Seth's look at all either XD I don't mind his hair so much, but his dress look like an old fashioned grandma's dress. The rest look fine and I do like the guy who is leaning against the wall on the right side. He looks great.
