New Jihen album: Dai Hakken [2011.06.29]

[frecklegirl]

Once again the public perception of the hate dwarfs the actual amount of hate getting posted. This happens every time, y'all. Every time. I would love it if for once someone saying "So 2ch has a lot of Daihakken hate" it somehow didn't become "EMF IS ALL ABOUT DAIHAKKEN HATE OMG" for pages and pages and no one realizes it's not true.

SR wants us to stop complaining about Dai-hakken?
Then get down and write some proper music already me lady.
If you've forgotten what "proper" is please listen to the music you used to write when you were 15 yrs old.
And also Tamatebako.
It's not that hard. Even a 15-yr-old can do it.

love and peace.
JR.

edit: seriously, that tweet was just asking for a response like this. You can't stop an avalanche once you've started it.

Well, what she meant was, don't complain ALREADY before you've even heard the whole album. That's why she can tolerate Sports complaints but not Dai-hakken ones because it's not even out yet.

I'll be on vacation (not to a cool place sadly) for the next several days so the Twitter will not be getting translated by me until probably right before the album drops, but I'll catch up on it when I'm back.

@Jihad
My mistake, I replied to this thread by accident, that post was supposed to be in another thread.

Exactly.

I think I shall put this on my important points to note list:

1. Do not mix 2ch or other forums/websites with EMF(we are the coolest forum ever right, guys?)

2. Everyone has their own opinion.

3. Care about Ringo too. Not just her music. (I get a little touchy when comments gets directed to Ringo...)

4. Post your opinions. Listen what others have to say. Calmly sort what you want to believe in.

There. Short and simple.

Fukushuu is one cool song.

I am psyched about the new album. Have to use my maximum google-fu soon to find sources...

I think dai hakken is going to turn out great. This is the period of all hate. The sky is the darkest before dawn. And we will have a brilliant tour after seeing how Ultra C is well-loved by many even though Sports had quite a number of doubtful individuals.

I do wonder how are they going to do onna no ko wa dare on stage... maybe JCHI service style?

Did this part get lost in translation?
Because nowhere in that English translation could I infer her saying this.
My reaction would have been a lot more different if I had known about this.

But really, singles + released material (usually) sets expectations about the material on the album. If the singles + released material are well, not exciting, it's not out of logic to deduce that the following album would not be exciting either.

And plus. All this complaining. It's gotta mean something right?
We don't complain because we have nothing better to do.
We complain because we care.

So SR.
If you even care about us fans who've been supporting you for the past ten years... argh. I don't know. Don't post things like this to fish for encouraging words? It seems rather... childlike.

Change the we's and us's to I's and you've got a decent argument. Not that I agree with it, but I understand where you are coming from. I have learned my lesson about generalising on here and I don't think even some of the hardest of hardest Ringo dissenters think everything new is terrible. Please don't take this as a personal attack, it isn't my intention.

Anyway, on a positive note, my order from CDJapan now says "In Shipping Process"

Hey, there's track lengths on last.fm. But I don't know if it's reliable because the new Dopamint is listed as being thirty seconds long. Edit: Actually no, they don't match up. Oh well.

I wonder if 'Terrible Adults' is Shiina/Kameda's earthquake song. Looking at the (English) lyrics, it certainly seems that way. http://yokyou.tistory.com/145
It's Track 8.

Last fm is never ever right when it comes to track lengths :-p
