Kaoru went too fast on his individual photo, lol

Pretty cool new look I gotta say.

[SATAN-GOTH-ZONE]

okay I am into it

Somehow did not expect this one to be the token PV track based on its title, nor did I expect it to be 6 minutes long. The PV aesthetics seem nice tho, at least based on what I can see so far.

Can't really say anything about the song itself yet, but I like the vibe of the instrumentals.

@SATAN-GOTH-ZONE rituals, black magic, vodu... I LOVED

The bassline reminds me of Swans' Screen Shot

Interesting textures in places, Kyo isn't grating at all and a few sukekiyo-esque curveballs that I'm thrilled to hear. It's still unfortunate that they're married to this particular alternative/nu-metal riffing that makes the backbone for most of their material. Nostalgically longing for the time when their albums had incredible diverse riffing across the board.
