Infinity (Instrumental)
1. Infinity
Finally, they decided to go somewhere with their music. Infinity does still have them in that stale rut, but the song is a lot more edgier and heavier which is what they needed. There’s just a lot of synths throughout and the song is pretty catchy. CHISA does go back to her yelling/singing which is unfortunate, especially after her ravex experience…I got to say this is just as good as “Shiawase no Jouken”….ok maybe not, but the only thing I hated was that chanting bridge….terrible idea IMO.
2. If
They haven’t had a ballad yet in this era, so they decide to finally release one and I was sorely disappointed. I mean yeah it doesn’t have the typical nuances and there’s actual strings in the songs that made me happy. CHISA’s vocals also calmed down a bit to make it more emotional. Daisuke should’ve stuck with the piano and not have played the synths/keyboard…totally detracts from the song IMO. Yuji too, should’ve stayed out of this one, even if his part was to make the song more epic. Sad part is that this song is almost 7 minutes in length which means this song drags big time…What were they thinking? At least there’s a cool guitar solo.
3. Jounetsu no Daishou (Diamond Mirror SCP Version)
Jounetsu no Daishou has another remix? Jeeze, I thought we left those songs behind…Well, JnD’s remix is actually more along the lines of a real trance track, maybe eurobeat. There’s just not a big difference with the overall sound of the original mix…So I guess it’s just a bit bland.
4. Seeds of dream (ice cream mix)
I’m starting to hate the fact that every single so far has to have one of these remixes. Luckily, it isn’t as damn long as the last one which was about 8 minutes. This is about 5 minutes. It’s funny they took a song that was happy and lively and changed it around where it just sounded lifeless. It’s hilarious to hear CHISA’s vocals get manipulated when she says ~seeds of dream~….Still not that good of a remix.
GND, is finally getting some sort of hint that they are getting pretty boring. Infinity is quite a nice track to listen to and very energetic which is what I wanted. If returned them to the ballad world and finally Yuji gets a damn solo which is a first….but the length kind of hurt the song’s overall listenthrough. The remixes? nah just pass them up.
