Pretty good for a sellout album.Still their worst.
2008 was 30 years ago
>>129216724DESTROYYYY!!!!!!!!
>>129216724It's just shittier Boredoms with a dying cat on vocals. Weebs only listened to it because the naked anime girl.
>>129216724The wonky anatomy of the arm bothers me
agreed. brutally mogged by shinsekai
>>129219242>It's just shittier Boredomsthey sound nothing alike lol, do you have ears?
>>129219242Aside from Mariko being a fan of Seiichi Yamamoto(specifically his solo work) and one of Boredoms drummers playing in her backup band in 2012/13 they have nothing in common
>>129219341it's artistic expression
>>129216724I know the album cover is supposed to be an artistic expression of the album and it's themes but it just doesn't match the music. They have this loud chaotic sound and the album cover is just a bland drawing of a naked girl, I wish they would've added some color or something, great album and band either way.
i wish i were transi'm cis but i wish i weren't
>>129221922wow! I had no idea! you are so insightful and smart!
>>129216724Titten.
>>129222284Is that related to the post or did you just feel like getting that off your chest?
How did /ourwaifu/ sell out exactly?
>>129222213>it just doesn't match the musicIt matches perfectly
>>129219665elaborate?
>>129222213It matches most of the lyrics. And lyrics don't always match the sound(Mariko loves tonal dissonance, one of the most serious and sincere songs on Second is arranged like a joke song). Cover was drawn by Naoki Yamamoto, very prominent sad erotica mangaka, Mariko is a big fan. He drew 6 or 7 artworks for her, most recently 6 years ago.
And yeah, his anatomy can be weird
Rammsteinpenis stayed up so if these animutitties get removed you know what's up
Band missed out on all the postcovid westoid bux.
Japanese-style manga art is so ugly compared to Europe's.
Can't get used to this hair colour
>>129229878Close your fly, hag.
>>129229164why?
>>129232985Because you're gay
>>129216724Where are they now??
>>129235903Alive, last time I checked only drummer quit music. But it was several years ago.
Just listened to this album. love it. also busted a nut to the cover at 3:16 of 5拍子
Recent live video was fun.Still waiting till she uploads an improv jazz session for once.
>>129225043shinsekai is the name of their final studio album
they have the worst fans
>>129239847They have fans?Maybe some tourists, but they come and go.
>>129226850Ts dope asf
^gay
>>129242106>i don't have sex
>>129216724look, I'm going to be honest. I don't know what this thread is about, but I really like boobs.
>>129241577Just don't pay attention to how much he botched the guitar
>>129229164AYO CAPTAIN JACK
i listened to this album every day back in 2016, does it still hold up? what happened to her?
>>129248079Hold up to what? There's nothing to compare it to, except the other two midori albums, which are both better.>what happened to her?Lol. Let's just say she's fine now. Does a bunch of shows, writes new music(very slowly), posts cat pictures, gets mad and writes rants...
>>129219242>It's just shittier BoredomsThey sound nothing alike.>with a dying cat on vocalsand that's a good thing! Ironic statement coming from a Boredoms fan.
>>129248079>what happenedObligatory:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5QipUaSihghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryNbK4V8IP4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqVNzYahuSw
>>129250033huh?
>>129249396>Ironic statementEYE doesnt sound like a cat though
>>129249396>They sound nothing alike.Blatant lie. This: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-g02aE1oh0 is just early Boredoms but shittier and gayer.
Bad bait. It's also funny how westoids always make the silliest comparisons which you never ever see from japanese or actual j-music enthusiasts.The only real comparisons are King Brothers and J&M(a couple of songs from last two albums).
>>129256912post a Boredoms song you consider similar
In the west Mariko would be cancelled for slut shaming.
>>129257411>weeb is a passive aggressive pussy>and wrong about absolutely everythingSurprise surprise.>>129258012Everything from Soul Discharge, Chocolate Synthesizer and Pop Tatari, you lazy faggot.
>>129263110Hilarious
>>129263110ah, so you are just trolling.
>>129223067>How did /ourwaifu/ sell out exactly?Did she? From what I'm aware of her career, she disbaned the band because she didn't like the idea of being limited in what type of music she could put out without her established fanbase complaining about the change in direction and she's been intending to put out more music, but more underground than her previous workThat's the exact opposite of selling out
>>129223067With the album in the OP.Osakan hardocre band releases first full album on some local microlabel and almost immediately gets signed by Sony Music and moves to Tokyo. It was considered selling out at the time. >>129266198>she disbaned the band because she didn't like the idea of being limited in what type of music she could put out without her established fanbase complaining about the change in directionNo, she didn't even disband them, she left and rest of the members decided to disband since there was no point continuing without her.And she left because she wanted to focus on her family at the time. Just so happened that her marriage ended several months after she quit. Plus, Mariko admitted, that she could never stop writing music.>without her established fanbase complaining It's funny, because her current relationship with much of that fanbase ranges from "i don't care" to "go fuck yourself".
Speaking of selling out, there was also 2014, but that was more of a "i need to get music out and i burned every bridge with Sony". Plus, she was probably at her lowest point in terms of mental health at the time. Still, not letting her do the arrangements was a very dumb move by King Records, almost as dumb as that makeup and album rollout.
her solo production is not as good
It's better(except for m@u and kowareta)And writing is leagues better
The only thing i miss from midori days is the drumming. Well, i miss her having a backing band in general, but aside from 3-4 shows a year it's impossible to maintain now. But that one free jazz show where she had a sax player was sick.
>>129270412wash your feet hag
>>129216724never listened to this album but i guarantee you it'd be better if the girl's armpits were hairy
>>129271234Kys
>>129272841hmm... nyo
>>129270412why are japanese women so based
>>129247537BRING ME BACK TO THE RAILROAD TRACK
>>129270412>sax player was sickHer latest record is also pretty good, but it's only on bandcamp
>>129216724Just listened to this because of this thread, and it's dogshit. Only a horny weeb could pretend it was good. >inb4 filtered
>>129276001This album isn't really horny.
>>129276055It's because of the naked drawn Japanese girl on the cover
There are tons of other albums with naked anime girls on them
it's japanese music for starbucks millenials whose idea of japan is panty vending machines
What's up with retard influx?
>>129217454>2008 was 40 years agoFuck, feel old as balls
