Although it pains me to give a RAG FAIR release such a low rating, I'm a little annoyed by the turn their music seems to be taking. They were much cooler -- and much more unique -- as a strictly a capella band. The title track, Natsukaze Tayori, begins with a blend of piano and guitar and has almost none of the 'a capella' feel of many of their previous songs that have included instruments. The second track, Kokoro Yohou, is much better and fitting their unique sound. Not a bad single, but definitely not their best, either, at least if you're a fan of their a capella sound.
