LouDNesS, see you on May 26th 2011 at Oklahoma Samurai!!! Have a safe trip on your tour. I hope you play this song at the show. I LOVE IT! \m/etal \m/ad!!!
Well, i woldnt exactly call his voice death metalish but i get you. Yea i was reacently listening to X again after a while, the whole Jealousy albumn to be exact and yea your right, no one can beat X!! I just love Toshi and Taji! Um, not exactly metal or rock but you might like atsushis voice from buck tick. Try "in heavn" and "one more kiss" by buck tick. Kinda poppy though. By the way, whats your favorite top 3 X songs? lol Mine are Silent jealousy, love replica and desperate angel
I've been listening to Loudness since '82 and they TRULY show their own UNIQUE interpretation of metal as a style. Akira is one of my all-time favorites. I'd like to see him get away from the nu-metal, detuned school of playing. I think his rhythm tone and chord choices are JUST AWESOME!!! Even better than his soloing. Their upbringing on traditional Japanese sounds, melodies, etc... are what has made them SPECIAL.
Aww man, thats a tough one. X Japan was my first Japanese metal band, actual it was my first metal band period. They used to be my number one, but now, well.....there number two....loudness rules!!! But Toshi's and Taji were awesome!! Um hide too i guess, gota love his originallity
The drummer, Muintetaka Higuchi, was diagnosed with liver-cancer a short while ago. The band is put on hold until he recovers. My thoughts are with him.
LOl o i didnt know my bad, funny thing though, Toshi was supposed to go of to medical school and become a doc and instead he listened to Yoshki and started X, pretty cool : )
Japanese must be proud to have such a metal band. I'm happy to listen this kind of modern songs made by a band I loved for years. I stopped listening to Loudness releases with the album "Loudness" (what a beautiful album!!! what a great sound!!! what a huge singer). I did not like the other releases after that album. I did not like the course of the band since 'til 2007. If the entire new album will be similiar to this song I'll buy 10 copies.
Okay i take it bac, i love all thier songs....lol enven thier indies stuff which is mostly musical compositions and funny wording, toshi just has a way with words lol
I agree. Dahlia was a poppy albumn. However idk somhow the song dahlia grew on me and well i sorta like it. Sure as hell not one of my favs but its alright. O and yea, vanishing vision was kinda heavy, Vanishing Vision was on the edge of being thrash metal if you ask me lol. but it still rocks though! have you heard the latest news? Sugizo from luna sea is joining X Japan to help replace hide. Idk, i got a bad feeling X is headed on the road to pop
lol as far as loudness is concerned, tss, i cant even begin to say which is my fav, cause damn i love almost all thier songs except thier weird "trying to go with the rap rock flow songs" like "dogshit" and "realman". Hmm. i think my all time fav is "Rock n rolly gypsy" yea for sure it is!!
Awesome Song!!! Loudness is still alive and kicking!! I love minoru's vocals in this song and his acting LOL in the song :)..."no preacher, no teacher all we have is fun" LOL Awesome song!! Akiras technique still rocks hard...just wish some of my American metal fans would recognise Akiras freaking Talent and Loudness's overall power and metal spirt. But no...they just ignore it and blab on bout lamb of god, avenged seventh fold and all that other stuff..which is good but not as good as loudness!
calling me ignorant? haha. ive listened too all their albums, so i suggest you watch what you say. i know this isnt the best of loudness, but you must support their newer song if you are a true loudness fan and stop bitching about their new style. take it or leave it!!
what happened to the solos?The riffs are really good (manowar) but c'mon man, you can't expect this to be a Loudness Metal song without Akira's lightning fast and precision solos like the old days!!!
Great band, always loved their music. I am glad Minoru is back in the band, Masaki Yamada and Mike Vescera didn't seem to fit right to me. Neither of their voices seemed right for the band. RIP Munetaka Higuchi. He was a really good drummer. Loudness definitely has some serious skills.
Sigh, well, i just heard Jade. Its alright, i cant really see what you mean bout slipknot but yea the guitar skills in the song are sucky. Damn, you know i never really was into hide that much, but listening to this makes me realize how vital he was to X and damn do i wish he was still around!! I fear X is going down the road to pop and adopting a radioish sound. Sure do miss thier wild crazy days lol. O well..maybe theyll shape up : )
good chunky rifff but the song really doesn't stand out beyond that....I wish I could totally praise this because I like Loudness but this song isn't doing much for me
ok haha, so you are talking about all that crap and you are only 17??? i mean hahaha... there are new bands that play with the same old school attitude, go listen warbringer, or old bands with good new material like hirax, but dont talk crap dude, you really look like a "kid rock" fan doing this,,,
