Do As Infinity X [CD+DVD]

I must admit I'm not too thrilled with the cover for this album. In fact it nearly put me off on buying this altogether. So glad I listened to my better judgement. I'm a REALLLLY LONNNNNNNG time fan of DAI, and in all honesty, with Eight & Eternal Flame I felt like I was in a bit of a slump with them. Then Time Machine released, which was much better. However, this album while a bit shorter, IS SO INCREDIBLE. I can't stop listening to it nonstop. Van's vocals seem to have improved a lot as well. There are absolutely no filler songs on this at all. I just feel like they're all potential hits...except for #9, which at a few tiny parts the way Van holds the notes reminds me of a Kumi Koda song for some reason. -_- I highly recommend the album out to all previous DAI fans and even to newcomers who enjoy a mix of Pop & Rock. Just give it a try! PS. I haven't watched the concert DVD yet, but their shows aren't overly elaborate like Ayumi Hamasaki's or Kumi Koda's, but they've always been quite fun and enjoyable anyways. Ryo Owatari (even if you can't understand Japanese) is hilarious on stage both during performances and during the mics.
