The concert would be a bit difficult. As Ive said, I do everything through the phone these daysI have only very limited internet for the computer, so downloading something is pretty much out of the question; and my phone flatly doesnt have the space for it. Its not a case of not wanting to listen to it, as a logistical not really seeing a way that happens right now thing.

Also, I kinda thought you only wanted comments on songs you gave links to... Kanos album might be a bit difficult to find, though if its easily available on a streaming site Ill add it to the list. Youre awfully vague on Emmas other songs, its just a she has other songs on her channel statement which... like, if you want me to go click the last ten videos on her channel, you could just ask?

Other than that, theres just some AZKi songs which Ill try to find now.

[Later: I see now that you posted both of them. I...probably should have clicked those links before going back the message. Well, either way, I listened to them.[

AZKi - Blue Dream: First result on Google is a live version, first on YouTube (if I copy the Japanese text of the song title instead of searching for the translated one) is a music video with a real person with a cat... guess Ill just listen to both.

One of her better songs. She puts more emotion into it than the songs Im familiar with and it is nice to see her again... still, not really a song Im immediately in love with or anything. Not enough differences between the music video version & live version to be worth commenting on, but I prefer the Live version for actually having AZKi in the video.

AZKi - I was Human: Probably the bleakest song in this topic thus far. I think I like it more than Intersection, but Id probably have to listen to it a few more times to decide. Definitely a good song though.



Going to detour off to at least the first song from that Pain of Salvation album.. Best case, I find a new album that actually can stand against their album Be as one of my favorites of all time. Worst case, dealing with an album of child rape will prepare me for whatever nominations come next topicperhaps Ill even apologize for ever saying anything negative about The Weeknd after experiencing this one. It should be an enlightening experience either way; dont expect writeups though... I have a feeling this is going to be way too heavy an album for me to voluntarily talk about.

Pain of Salvation - Used: I dont know. Its a bit more explicit than Id like, but at the same time, so much tamer than Id been expecting it to be. The main thing I have against it is the over repetition... Getting used to pain comes up 56 times.

But I...kinda like it? I mean, hearing something new (to me) from an artist with an album I love after a few years is pretty nice and I could see it having some definite use if I ever want a very angry playlist. Leaning very low 60s on this, itd be a hard sell to move something like this up, but... yeah, I think I do like it.



Pain of Salvation - In the Flesh: Well, theres the first incest child rape song of the album. Its not terrible; even without the lyrical content it wouldnt be my favorite song by the band, but there are some good verses here (if the song ended after verse 3, Id probably like it some amount)... probably a song around the 40 point tier, unless Im in a mood to give it negative infinity points for subject matter.

Pain of Salvation - Ashes: Nah, thanks anyway. I dont think this singer can pull off the dark voice he needs to fully sell this song, so it just misses the mark completely. I find myself more laughing at his attempt to growl THUS WE HURT!! than anything else. Like in theory this should either be the level of blunt sadness I want or too blatantly about a sexual relationship for me to care about, but my first reaction was laughter.

Pain of Salvation - Morning on Earth: I think I like this one. Right amount of bleakness, spoken word section... possibly a 70 point song? I do want to listen to it a few more times on different days, so its something I like a fair amount.

Pain of Salvation - Idioglossia: *gets three minutes in* ...Nah, I actively dont want to listen to this particular track. Its not doing anything that I care about and skimming the upcoming lyrics, its really all downhill from here anyway.

Decent place to take a break; Ill try to finish the album off tomorrow, since Ill have more time to listen to it then.
