LOLLLLL. this album just got trumped by David Bryne's announcement for Here Lies Love. As much as I love Jihen, his double disc effort is gunna have tracks with Florence Welch, St. Vincent, Nellie McKay, Sia, Santigold, Kate Pierson, Tori Amos, Cyndi Lauper, and a Tori/Cyndi duet, amongst others (its 22-ish tracks).
http://www.davidbyrne.com/here_lies_love/index.php but still, this jihen track listing is....weird. I'm not so sure how I feel about a song called F.O.U.L blech. The names in this track last remind of a bit of my reaction to Variety's list. Adult had such an antique-like list, it felt mature and refined. Kyouiku was interesting and innovative. I guess time will tell. |

the 2 secret tracks are
1. the sound of ukigumo farting after eating ramen 2. the sound of izawa's skull cracking under the immense force of roses being thrown at him (...yeah, I can't make a post about TJ w/o sounding like a cock anymore.)

okay if I had to translate the track list I'd do it like this (no offense meant scribble)
・生きる to live ikiru ・電波通信 radio transmission denpa tsuushin ・シーズンサヨナラ sayonara season shiizon sayonara ・勝ち戦 victory kachiikusa ・F.O.U.L ・能動的三分間 an active 3min (official=3min) noudoutekisanpunkan ・F.A.I.R ・乗り気 eagerness noriki ・スイートスポット sweet spot suiito supotto ・閃光少女 flashing girl senkou shoujo ・極まる the end kiwamaru ほか全13曲 the last track literally means to reach an extreme, to reach the limit, to reach the end, to be in a dilemma, so I'm almost entirely sure that it wil serve as some dramatic finish to the album. as to the "other two" unannounced tracks, the only way they could fit the symmetry is to stick them inside symmetrically somewhere between, so at the very least I think Ikiru and Kiwamaru are the opening and closing trcks with 3min exactly in the middle.

This isn't an ordered tracklist. It's a "planned" list of songs (収録予定楽曲), meaning these are what will be included, but it's not arranged in order (or it might be, but we don't know yet). They released something like this for Seiteki Healing vol. 4 and it changed before the final arrangement.

Beaver = The End...LOL.
I'm also a huge fan of Talking Heads and David Byrne, so that is great news...and lol @ the collaborators. I bet all those female musicians share the same fanbase.
And where's this DRAMATIC GROWTH gonna come in I wonder. I thought they would do music: Tokyo Jihen arrangement: Tokyo Jihen this time If Ringo indeed does three tracks, then I bet it's 'To Live' (Sounds like a Ringo title), 3min, and The End. I can't believe it -- it's a Ringo concept album! Am I optimistic? No. But I'm still very much looking forward to it. Last edited by Scribble R : 2009.12.15 at 01:15 AM. |

F.O.U.L and F.A.I.R both reek of something Izawa would write. I'm okay with non-ringo compositions, but non-ringo lyrics for jihen have generally been meeeeeeeh. they better stand for something awesome.

Fuck off g-men
Fuck off and die (You're okay with non-Ringo compositions, kuro neko? As much as I like Izawa, Ringo writing is the factor that decides whether this album is actually great or not. Ringo's not perfect, obviously, but I doubt that I'll ever be blown away by an Uki song. Unless this is where he STEPS HIS SHIT UP) Last edited by Scribble R : 2009.12.15 at 09:31 AM. |
