7.5/10

Too repetitive for me, i like the change at 3:01 tho.

Im loving the bass riff, it's the instrument that shines the most through all the song.

The synth sound doesnt excel at all but they really gets you in the mood of the song and i like that.

Idk what to say about the lyrics, they seem a bit dark for me. Definitely the sound of the instruments doesn't accompany the lyrics at all imo.

This is a lie.
8/10, background drum stuff is really good, but that's my opinion on every rock drum. This one, though, mixes in with the guitars really good.
Guitars are good, as well. The fact that he does multiple parts to convey feeling is really impressive, as it gives a mood that only the guitars can provide solely, with support from the drums.
Pretty epic music right here.

I love the guitar riff at the beginning, the wrong notes really makes the song pop, the build-up afterwards was a little bit of a let down, but I like the distorted effect around 1:20 and further on
Felt that the song was a bit too subdued with that distorted guitar in mind though, was always waiting for this big blowout which never really came in my opinion, so not much really stood out except the beginning. I feel like a lot more could've been done with the song.

Kind of a flow that could go above my head, but I wouldn't have anything against it.
I don't know if my wording before that comma made any sense, so, in other words and with more precision: the combination of the instruments and the vocals made it so I couldn't keep a focus for long, although both of those aren't out of what I would enjoy.
I don't get (or "feel") the instrumental transition at 2:48.

I prefer the instrumental version though.

When I heard it (inst. ver.) a bit more than once, it sometimes reminded me of a pattern.
I tried so hard to think about it and I remembered. This.

You might not see my point, but that's fine. That was just my perception speaking.

The melody gives me a bit of nostalgia, it is very easy to get captivated listening to the song.
When the violin enters, and gives us the main verse again just after that, i love how it 'restarts' the song to get us captivated again.
Pleasant harmony, it gives a relaxing and chill ambience.
Really enjoyable song.

6/10. has a very basic metal touch to it, the guitars weren't bad as well as the drums. but i kinda sounds weird with the sudden pauses with the instruments in my opinion. not something i'd listen to regularly

The instruments/digital tools are great, but I didn't feel like the... "distorted voices" really fit into those.

It's ok, kinda gave me nostalgia of when I used to play those games at a console rental shop. But it's not something I'd listen to normally.

Not a particular wow factor regarding the music, but the story is definitely A1. It's also not something I would play on the regular, but it's a good song for debate and introspecting..Human greed and morality.

Good meaning behind it, just don't like rap too much.


One of my more favorable Fujiwara no Mokou songs.

I've always liked eurobeat so I really enjoyed this one.
The vocals are nice but I think they're a bit overdone. I think I would've enjoyed it more if there were less vocals.

A solid 8/10

Translation (by myself):
Songs, girls
Many glasses and nights
Those were our hours
Those were our lives
Vain teenagers, we could do anything
Phony kings, powerless princes
Friends, and only them, are one's true wealth
That's it

The time for the storms has come
Before we could foresee it
Impossible relationships
Defeat, irony
When everything rusts, when even our dreams vanish
Only one land, one dock, one group remains
Friends, and only them, are one's true wealth
That's it

That's it

But once everything lights up
Once fortune eventually comes by us
Glory, celebration, symphony
Ovation, treasure, arrogance
While I'm being showered in tricks and amnesia
Honor and riches
What do I know about them, now?
My friends, and only them, are my true wealth
That's it

Honor and riches
What do I know about them, now?
My friends, and only them, are my true wealth
My friends (or "My true wealth", depending on how you would repeat the previous section)

Vocals are impecable, they remind me a bit of Franz Ferdinand, but more softer and fragile. Lyrics are on-point with the sound ambience.
I love the instrumental progression at 1:39 and how it sets you in the mood of what happens at 2:09.
A bit too generic for today's standards, but i think its fine considering the release age.

7.82/10.

It's actually pretty good, even for a style i'm not particularly fond of. It's well-done.

The vocals are great, the percussion sounds great and has great rhythm, as do the melodies and such. It all works and flows together nicely and there's very little that seems to really clash. I find it hard to pay attention to lyrics unless they're at the front, but-- oh shit, the vocals are great!

I tend to pay attention to the pitch and sound profile of the voice as opposed to the actual lyrics, so i'm not really up for judging that right now.

But yeah. The atmosphere's great, the mood is great, and the song progressed fairly well. The ending could've been a bit longer with some sort of falling action where the slow drop of the guitar had been.

I don't really find it to be my sort of style and it doesn't resonate with me much, but I can at least state that this song is pretty great.

7.16/10.

Not really something I'd normally listen to, as most rock styles don't interest me as much. With everything considered, it's not bad, but it feels somewhat cheesy and doesn't have the earthy mood or atmospheric quality I look for in songs.

Lyrically, the song seems pretty likely to strike some emotional chords in others, as it seems pretty relatable. It's also pretty energetic.

The progressions are fairly powerful and the drums are alright. So are the vocals and guitar.

Overall, it's not bad.

I didn't see whatever coming after the first 24 seconds.
0:24~0:57 and similar parts reminded me of this.
I don't know why, but it feels like either there's something missing to make it better, or some of the "instruments"(/sounds) used in this don't fit each other.

I actually liked this 7/10.
Dreamy and ethereal, especially from 4:16-5:30.
I can see myself pretending to star in a movie as I'm listening to this.



Warning: Fairly controversial song.
Plini
2/10

Not gonna talk about the lyrics. Just state that i dislike when controversial topics are used in any type of song, i think the song itself loses its purpose when that happens.

Generic 'shady-underground' melody. Doesn't has any musical figures? musical arrangements? (i don't know how they are called in english) that catch my attention.

I love trap, i really do, and i have a thing for korean rappers, god they really sound good when rapping. But MUSICALLY speaking this song is way too poor, i think the song has the purpose of 'giving a message' instead of 'getting into the listener'.
That doesn't mean that the song is bad tho, maybe it's just not my cup of tea.

I enjoy the otherworldly feeling and the uniqueness, but I wouldn't listen to this in my spare time.
I love TONS of bands. It's so hard choosing one song!
So, I decided to go for a song which I think gives a similar vibe.

It's great, but it doesn't have the best reputation. I like to listen to it when I feel down because parabola is golden. You can't listen to parabola without parabol though. Not on my watch!

i think this track’s pretty interesting, the soundcloud description being “Space Pirate Tech-Rap” is probably the best way to describe it
Achromalia
7.96/10.

Pretty interesting indeed. Great rhythm and flow with lyrics. The mood is great and industrial, atmosphere's pretty metallic.

Some bits kinda make it a little cheesy or weird, like the "captain's announcement". Not a fan of it, makes it sound comical despite the musical context of a metallic industrial atmosphere, something i'd expect to sound heavy.

An overall cool and quirky track, though.

I like to feel a certain way as I’m listening to music.
This was just a rollercoaster of confusion for me as the composition itself is a bit unique..hard to get into the feel of the rhythm.
However, there were some parts I enjoyed, specifically 1:10-1:21.

It's quite okay in my opinion.
In fact, it's quite fun to listen to. The vocals are pretty good too.
Not bad at all.

6/10. I'm really familiar with the musician who does persona's music. His stuff has a pretty defined style, and I think it's really good... Sans vocals. I consistently dislike the vocals he uses. His music is much better as instrumental tracks. I don't know why, but every time he adds a vocalist to it, it just. It just never fits. It bothers me. Like, it's the right style of vocalisim, but it never really feels cohesive with the rest of the music.

Achromalia
7.93/10

A peculiar song. As it goes on, it becomes quite charming.

Really love the imagery overlapping the band playing, where the hands move on each beat, quite creative.

The general mood is... interesting? Can't quite describe it very well. But the driving force of this, and the atmosphere itself, all works well along with these really interesting progressions, and... yeah. It's enjoyable.

A bit discordant of a chorus contrasting the singing, perhaps, but it feels more human this way.

Good stuff.

The name suits the song. It makes me feel as if I'm the only person alive in this world. There's also an indescribable emotion that still lingers. Eccentric taste in music.

The life I had, my friends could hear it
Wherever people waited for me, I didn't come

That means I'm disordered, yet blended
I'm too complicated, I will never choose
From the two sides, don't you ask me
Where I'm going, even apes ape the adept (lit.: "the wise people")
And those adept ones made boundaries to bind us all

Using boxes, we sort in there the people whom we won't understand ever

I went through thousand of roads and shook even more hands (lit.: "ten thousands of hands")
We're enabled to like Brel and Megui*, and even our enemies (that's a long thing to explain)

I'm too complicated, I will never blend in
Your small groups, living in the present
Hence I'm still vacillating with those glasses
Hearing people wondering "when will the mask* break" (*as in "facade")

It was pretty nice and calm. The vocals is pretty soft and nice to listen to.
Although the melody is really familiar, like I heard it somewhere before. I think it sounds really similar to the dango song.

Sounds a bit more chilled-out and calming with those acoustics compared to the original. Pretty nice. Although I think I prefer the original just because of its' energy and other instruments. The electric guitar and drums are especially 👌 👌 👌
