Shizuku [w/ DVD, Limited Edition] Customer Reviews
Kagrra,
One of the best band ever! The beautiful lyrics, vocals and music. With Kimono or not that doesn't matter to me, their music are the most important!!! Sakebi,Ishin, Hakai and Kaze are my favorite and wish to recommend to all the music lover out there.
This is my firs album from Kagrra. I must say I am very impressed. I really love the song "Utakata" with the traditional Japanese sound and feeling. The only disappointed in the DVD that is included with the Limited Edition. It only has one music video of the song "Shizuku". Here is the tracklist: 1. Utakata 2. Sayonara 3. Kaze 4. Ishin 5. Hakai 6. Unmei no ito 7. Sakebi 8. Kasun da fuyu no mukou ni... 9. Shizuku DVD: Music video Shizuku
The album suffers from a shortage of tracks. Nonetheless its still quite a good album to listen to. Shizuku, Utakata and Sakebi are definite powerhouses in this album. The other tracks are also pretty good. Many people probably feel that Kagrra, has lost its japanesque flavour they had in the past. However I feel that this is just a transition phase for the band. This album is definitely not as neo-japanesque as their older works but they still haven't lost their touch. In fact I believe they still have their roots intact and are just advancing and refining music. If you like a refreshing album. This album is for you.
sorry about my spelling its one of the best albums i ever lisin to it has alot of efert put in to it i love lising to it alot i hope there next work is even better
Just awesome, this is a really good album from this band, I am not sure if it is better than SAN, but let me tell you people that this must be considered one of the best CD of the year, but if I had something to miss, that will be the Kimonos, yep!, Kagrra is a visual band and I know many people will miss it too, but anyway you will love this CD, BUY IT.
I have to give 5 to this album, because it's the best full-album of Kagrra,! I have already heard almost all CDs of them and this is the best work! But what I can't understand and, mainly, I can't admit is a Kagrra, without kimonos! Kagrra, isn't just music.. it's their style the main thing which capture us! The simbology of their songs translated then transposed in their visual! Like in "Ouka Ranman" or "Miyako". THIS IS Visual kei! If they don't keep their style, even if they keep their songs as always, they will loose a lot of old fans! Because this way, they won't be a Visual kei band anymore; just j-rock/pop. And it's the way of defeat and disband. I really hope that Kagrra, keeps with their Visual kei style and the great quality of songs! Agaaain, "Shizuku" is beautiful! I recomend for all Kagrra, fans!
I have Haru Urara and the San album, and this one now. I'm so happy I got this album because I totally love it! The sound is clear and together--very good job recording this one! The vocals amazing, and the music itself just some of their best work yet! I'm enthralled! Thank you Kagrra for this album because I'm now a loyal fan!
First time I was stunned by the beautiful digipack and then their music! They never let me down and their beautiful music always touches me.
Kagrra, once again pleases with this album. All of the tracks are amazing and they are one of the few bands who can change thier sound a little bit and still remain the same band. I can't wait to see what Kagrra, has in store next!
with no doubt, this is the best album of Kagrra,. The quality of this work is wonderful, best quality ever, members really high their skills, the songs are gorgeous and lovely, and although they try something new on this album, it still sounds like Kagrra,. I love it.
Kagrra took off the make up and is making beautiful music, stronger and melodic than ever. It's still heavy, but with a new atmosphere
This album is so beautiful I cannot find words to describe how much I love it. This is one of Kagrra's best albums ever!!
Wow! This is the most beautiful album i have heard in a long time. Every song has its own little thing that makes it special. It gets better and better every time you listen to it. Kagrra's sound is a little more serious than previous releases i think, after they left their visual style. But still, a magnificent album and a must buy for every j-rock/pop fan, and for old and new fans of the band. Also great packaging and cover art. Just some information: The regular edition of this album has a thicker booklet with more photos of the band. (I bought both ;))
the most amazing cd i have heard in a very long time. Isshi paints a picture with each word he says its just beautiful. a must have for this year.
Easily the best jrock album I've heard in years. The lyrics and the melodies on each track are splendid. I honestly can't find any major bad points with it. This is one of those CDs that you'll listen to again and again. Don't miss out on this masterpiece.
The most 'different work ever' from Kagrra,. Their previous album, "San" has stronger character of neo japanesque, but I rate "Shizuku" 5/5 because of the explorations they've made to enrich this album. There're a lot of new sound, new spirit and surprises in this album yet still ROCK! Isshi's voice has improved a lot, he sings very beautifully. I also found Akiya's guitar sound is more mischievous in a very great way. Some fans may say this album sounds pop; some may say they've changed. But for me, Kagrra, has brought a very rich work for you to enjoy, although this is very different and 'new', they've showed you their skills and abilites. It's a great piece!
