Don’t forget about the new Megumi Hayashibara album: CHOICE: 2010.07.21
Ali Project’s new single is called “Ranse Eroica”.
Rina Aiuchi released two digital singles, Sing a Song and GOOD DAYS. Both suck though. GOOD DAYS is more acoustic pop/rock and Sing a Song sounds like cheap gospel rock. Not very good.
Yeah I managed to hear those….if there were bigger covers I might’ve reviewed them…but since there’s a third digi single announced imma hold off on it.
I laughed my fuckin ass off when I saw that diggy-mo’s new album would be called diggyism II like wow how long did it take him to think of that lol!!! And damn jasmine when you comin out with an album shit it’s been like two years since you came out lol!!
Why does it say that you reviewed 6 FORCE when you haven’t yet? I really want to see what you think about it too.

Holy crudz Joe Inoue finally has a new single!! It’s been like a year since GO★ (lolz). His hair is so wicked on the cover xD
You need to review Miliyah’s new album now!! It’s the most amazing album this year!

Hey, I was wondering if you still plan on reviewing Ceui’s music. She released an album earlier this year, and now she released a single a few days ago, but I noticed it’s not in your list. The album was a bit of a flop, but this new single seems pretty good, so I look forward to your review if you plan to do it.
tyty
There’s also a doujin release by Akiko Shikata this 31th, titled Istoria ~ Kalliope ~, which serves as a continuation and culmination of sorts for her Istoria ~ Musa ~ collaboration album project.

Sorry if it just looks like I’m throwing stuff at you, but these all look promising to me, and I look forward to reading your reviews.
And Shimotsuki also released other album this April 25th titled “Koboreru Suna no Aria”, which I can say it’s pretty good, but much more heavier in storytelling than any of its predecessors. And furthermore, it’s also a direct prequel to Griotte no Nemurihime’s story, which fills it with a lot of musical connections to it and to Tindharia no Tane (although unfortunately, that also makes its ending quite tragic by default).
Sorry, didn’t notice it was already in the list… V_V
Apprarently Haruka Tomatsu will release a new single called ユメセカイ (Yumesekai) in July 25th
