ＬｕＬｕ - 日本医療革命 [2008.08.06]

"溺愛クランケ" is an interesting song; the first half is very much punk-inspired, but the second half is a very catchy more rock-inspired section with good keys. "過触症" fuses elements of punk and quirky jazz and then ends up with a very catchy chorus again. Wow, this is really impressive for LuLu... normally it's not this catchy at all. Yet, nearly every song feels like a massive hook. It's not ground-breaking, but it's fucking LuLu, not Arcturus. There's very good energy to this album and it really covers up for the odd vox... but then, those vox are starting to become part of the experience for me. This is BY FAR their strongest material... despite the few damn re-recordings of other songs.

ＬｕＬｕ - 薬 [2008]

Bad news, sports-fans, LuLu sold out. Now it's just more rock. The vox are slightly improved, but they are still grating. Very disappointing that they have gone this route. It's completely stock shit, too, and not even catchy.

ＬｕＬｕ - 第零集中治療室 [2007]

Well, there's good and bad on this one. The good is that it's still punky and catchy. The bad is that the vox are a bit more towards the strange style of the first album, but it's still not quite as annoying.

ＬｕＬｕ - 現実不感症 [2006]

Well, let's see if the vox have improved. Definitely has better vox. Songs are catchy with a lot of punk influence as well as standard J-Rock.

ＬｕＬｕ - 精神鎮痛剤 [2006]

Strange vocals, but not too distracting. First track is pretty heavy and punky sound. Production is fairly heavy and the guitars are distorted well. Second track is much slower with some pretty cool orchestra/key parts. Okay, by the end of the single, I'm starting to get a bit annoyed by the vox.
