↑THE HIGH-LOWS↓ - "Do!! The★MUSTANG"

The first artist on my iPod:
↑THE HIGH-LOWS↓ (from Japan)
The album is "Do!! The★MUSTANG"

The first track is pretty shallow sounding, and I immediately thought the vocals were lacking. So, this is how the album starts? No introduction at all, we just jump right in there. Not a good start, High Lows.

Satetsu sounds almost like the same song. As does Noronoro. Wait, no. Noronoro is a hell of a lot more annoying. At the very least it sounds like the guitarists are making an effort.

Kouya Harukani has a (gasp!) different sound, but damn, they should've ditched that vocalist. They have a lot more problems than just the singing, but it would be an improvement.

I'm not even going to bother with the other tracks, they all. sound. the. same.

The last song should end on a good note, you don't want your listeners to end the record feeling unfulfilled or something like that. But no. The vocals on Purapura are pretty unbearable. Hell, Purapura is unbearable.

As I skipped through the album, none of the songs stood out as being anything other than typical 90s pop/rock/crap. I can't even say anything about the separate tracks because, well... they're all mediocre, cliche, uninteresting, soulless pop. Not truly awful, I can imagine someone would like it... Just not me. I prefer to be able to differentiate between songs, after all.

Overall...
1 out of 5

I just really don't appreciate unoriginality, hence the pitiful score.

Nice start to the blog, huh!
