You can put Dai Ikkai Ringohan's Sid on HF, sure.
But you don't put MM's Sid or Gekokujyou's Sid in HF. No way. Unless you want to be killed for blasphemy! <- (Shinji's favourite Ringo song is Sid to Hakuchuumu. Kekeke) |

Variety is blasphemy not art

You could heavily argue with that Adult comment -- I think Izawa's Tokyo Jihen songs have been horrible, and I think we have more to fear from his songwriting than we have from Ukigumo's guitar. Amagasa and Puffy are still 'special circumstances' because they're for other artists, and not proper SR releases. Whether she's still 'got it' or not is unclear. I still like her vocals, by the way, although not in the 'trailer' for the Expo videos, which sound too screamy and horrible, and not in the classic Shiina Ringo sense. |

It was fun while it lasted...
I have to thank Shiina for alot though. Her music helped me develop a taste for indie pop, weird... I can't imagine loving Citrus if I had never heard Ringo.

But to be on topic, I have no expectations for the 2009-season. If they come out with something new I'll listen, but I'm going to treat it for what it is not by where it comes from. You could say I've given up hope, but I'm still a fan (of the Old Shiina) and I still have such respect that I would listen to anything she releases.

starting up a new band with her being a guitarist along with uki with a NEW vocal. This will be hard to get use to for her fans, but her voice is just getting to bad for her to continue be the main vocal. |

A new band with SR on guitar AND includes Uki? Wat. Uki should be nowhere near SR on any project and SR is a terrible guitarist. If she plays anything it should be piano.

^ y'know, that might be an absolutely stupendous idea. If she's gonna abandon her old/good stuff anyway why not really take a radical direction. Just abandon the idea of a traditional band and traditional band kinda songs. It clearly hasn't helped her much.
That's outside the box, not tripe like Kronekodow. It also won't happen =(

Does no one like Ringo's voice anymore? It may not sound that great in Expo, but it's not like it's been consistently bad for the past few years. The last time it sounded so grating was in Dynamite Out (and some of the louder songs in S&T), but other more recent concerts like DVL, JCHI, SoTC vol.2, and many of the minor lives were fine. Of course she won't sound like a 19-year old woman when she's 30, but it's not like her voice is bad (if you're already a fan).

I really didn't have an issue with her DO voice, after a while. Her renditions of her older songs sounded better overall there. It's not really easy to look past the vocals when the artist is standing up there...singing! |
