Ordered this via EMS and it arrived to my home in the USA in 6 days in perfect condition. The box is slim with black-grey-white images plus quotes of the lyrics in English. Inside you get 12 very nice full color postcard/photos of the band; 2 of each member and 2 group shots. The USB stick is inside a keychain of the band logo, a pretty neat touch. Plugged it into my laptop (Windows 7), the drivers self-installed and I had music in less than 10 seconds. You get 7 tracks, 3 music videos, and 43 slideshow images of the band performing at a live,these look great and you get to see each member in detail. Secret Mode, the band's single released as a PV on iTunes is fast, catchy and will get your whole body moving. It features beautiful dual vocals,a lightening fast guitar solo, and great electronic elements. The other tracks take on a more indie vibe; with elements of shoe-gazing, haunting, melancholy melodies and just beautiful vocal harmonies. My favorite tracks are Secret Mode, Beautiful, and my number one, Red Tide: Haunting; the vocals are incredible here, smooth as silk while combined with distorted instrumentation. Very nice guitar work and percussion. Videos: Secret Mode--Sleek and fast, beautifully saturated colors giving it a night-club like feel. This will get your body moving; I would love to experience this live. Beautiful--Dreamy, light and airy with a shoe-gazing vibe; combined with visuals of nature this IS a beautiful track. Scenes of the band in candid moments after and during a live. Yusuke does the main vocals. Nova Spiral--Very catchy tune, nice refrain, great vocals by Die, Chidony and G. Live footage of the band performing. I like the indie vibe with clean visuals combined with the melodious, danceable track. Fans of an indie sound who love dance music with a catchy, upbeat vibe will love this band. This is of course a side project of Die from Dir en grey but each member is a known artist as well. This is NOT DEG sounding music at all so don't expect a heavy or even rock sound.
