I have accumulated many personal reviews while listening to albums. My reviewing style is non-conventional and was only intended for myself. Sometimes I will only use one sentence to describe an album if I feel that is all that's required. Other times I will review an album while I'm still listening to it, leading to a song-by-song review of the album (bringing the size of the review to nearly dissertation-level). There are times when I will even come back to a review to add information that I didn't know when originally writing the review. The point is that I won't edit my reviews to make them more readable or conventional. My reviews are always a direct result of what I was feeling when I wrote them and I want to let that feeling come through.

Rentrer en Soi - 水夢見る蝶々 [2005.05.25]

More interesting stuff here. They're really pushing out of the J-Rock mold now. Lots of progressive drumming and more experimental sections within songs. Very strong song writing. There's much more confidence and conviction. Through all of this, they've still managed to make a catchy album. Production is slowly getting better (mostly notably regarding the drums). Atmospheric, progressive, hard rock, post rock, and even new age at times.

Rating: 8.25
