Well, Boris' first release of the year totally delivered. Good stuff.

And now Dillinger Escape Plan have released a great new single (with an album coming in May). Perhaps there's chance for another good metal-related album this year:

Dillinger Escape Plan- Prancer


Speaking of Boris, Ensemble Pearl also turned out to be one hell of an album. That particular album also makes that a new album from Stephen O' Malley (of Sunn O))) fame) too. 2013 seems to be heading the right direction, lets just hope it can keep up with what's already released, and hope the albums that I have a feeling are gonna suck won't. (I'm looking at you Yeah Yeah Yeahs).

Oh yeah, let's not forget the new album by Clutch. While I don't think it's their best work ever, it's still got some real kickass tracks on it.

Sigur Ros- Brennisteinn


Well, I am stunned to be honest. I knew about a new Sigur Ros album and I knew that it was gonna be different to Valtari. BUT THIS DIFFERENT??? And this awesome????

Welcome back to the big leagues. Can't wait to hear the rest.

EDIT: They played a second song on Jimmy Fallon. And it's also awesome. http://gwendalperrin.net/blog/2013/0...-jimmy-fallon/

Kuriyama Chiaki to release her first single in a year and 5 months

It’s been revealed that actress/singer Kuriyama Chiaki will be releasing her first single in a year and 5 months, “Toyosu☆Luciferin“, on April 24th.

Kuriyama’s 6th single since her singing debut in February of 2010 was written by former Midori vocalist Goto Mariko and composed, arranged, and produced by 9mm Parabellum Bullet guitarist Taki Yoshimitsu. The song is said to have a beautiful melody, heavy-metal sound, and lyrics full of fantasy.

For its coupling track, the single will include a rock number called “Hodokenai, Bokura wa Zettai.“, which is also composed, arranged, and produced by Taki. It will also include a song that was produced by 9mm Parabellum Bullet, “Roulette de Kuchizuke wo“, which was featured in Kuriyama’s first album, “CIRCUS“, released back in March of 2011.

Some other cute girl also wrote songs for Kuriyama Chiaki a couple of years ago. I see parallels of their career paths.

Goto Mariko also wrote a theme song for 惡の華 (Flower of Evil), to be released on May 22nd.

New Chiaki, could be good. I'm pretty much convinced that she's not nearly as bad as some people like to say she is. Sexy voice and good musical connections, can't ask too much more from this kinda music. I still listen to and enjoy CIRCUS even now, it has a lot of re-playability, unlike other actress turned singer music from Japan (for example, any release by Anna Tsuchiya :-p).

I pretty much only care about Chiaki's music career when Shiina Ringo or Asai Kenichi is involved. Circus would've sucked without them, just as much as Tomosaka Rie sucked without Shiina Ringo.

Her contribution to FAKE?'s "Butterfly (Don't Let My Sun Go Down)" has been duly noted as fantastic.

What about after you hear this new single, full PV is here:

It doesn't sound that awful (to me at least). The PV itself however, is pretty cheapo.
