Later, Ifurina. I may still be here <3.
GEMME! *tackles* I would NEVER abandon you guys!!!! I'm trying to find the thread, link me to it so I can bookmark it D: ?
ok, now begins my rant <3!
Well first of all, I was extreamly excited to recieve both albums. It filled me with such joy <3! Though, my experiances with them differed. At the end of MARS I though "this guy, he has such amazing vocals, I love him. I want to listen to it again!" so for days and days, I listened to the album, and I still have it in my cd player frequently. Afetr Diabolos though, my reaction wasn;t the same. It was more of a "that's it?...Gackt..what happened? Alot of songs almost sounded the same!" and I have barley listened to it sence.
First, I'll begin with the MARS album. The first song was a lovely song. As I listened to it, I could just see this lovely blue haze. All different shades of blue overlaying themselfs, it was like a floating feeling. Then it went right into the second song, and I was like "wow. It went from all laid back and pretty straight into this faster song, but it blended so nicley together!". Each track had a different feeling, different mood about it. Every time I listened to each song after that, I would find a new part. The songs seemed to have SO many levels to them, and they were so deep.
Now onto Diabolos. Well, honestly, I can't remember Misty too well... I know it's got no vocals and leads into the second song though. About half way through the album, I turned to my sister and said "is it just me...or does this song sound almost the same as the last one that was on...?!". I felt ALOT of songs sounded the same on that album, which is one thing I DEFFINATLY am not fond of. In reality, the only song I am truley moved by on that album would be "Todokanai...*long a** title*", and it still fails to move me as deeply as his older songs. After the album, I put it back away in it's cd case like "tommorow morning, I'll listen to it on the way to skool. I bet I'll be able to pick up more stuff going on in the song, and I'll appreciate it better.". So in the morning, I tried my hardest to, but couldn;t find that much. I still give it chances, but it doesn't meet my expectations for Gackt.
Wether it's because he's older now, and his voice is becoming less....powerfull from all that smoking, or he just doesn't put as much effort into his music any more...I dunno. I think Gackt should just take a longe long vacation from any work. Give himself a year or so away from everything...but then again, that's just me.

Ah okie smile
Mars is a very good album with a wide variety of songs. But then again, Mars has several good single songs in it as well wink I like almost every song in that ablum and it's probably one of his best. And yea you did make a good point about the overall arrangement of the songs, but that is assuming that people listen to the tracks continuously razz As for Diabolos, his songs in that album has a lesser variety but his voice kind of got stronger, and I don't see why is that a bad thing?
Gackt songs never moved me emotionally. I admit that 'Todokanai Ai to Shitteita No Ni Osaekirezu ni Aishitsuzuketa...' is my favourite mainly because Gackt sounded incredibly sexy there lol Okie and I really do love that vocal heart
