Someone's heard the album, allegedly, and posted impressions. Can someone translate this? kuro?

I know I said I just want to take the album for what it is, but I can't resist. Progressive rock? 'Flat feeling'? 'Feeling of speed'? 'Rollercoaster'? Jazz? Izawa dominance?

I wanna knooooooooooooooow

So "doable" = "fuckable", very interesting translation script

The author was wondering if the songs could be done (performed) live, but concluded that the band would do it without problem (high skilled).

- Impactant sound.
- Progressive rock feel, punk feel, jazz feel, speed feel, rolling coaster feel.
- The development within a sound and in the entire album impredictable
- Alternative vibe (that he feels now more on Tj than Shiina solo)
- Izawa composing is more dominant (the early composition credits seems to be true).

Gaman?

A general high praise but, like someone in 2ch said, this could indicate that opinions on the album will be very very radical.

Okay, I know it's pretty freaky, but.. the pic in the blog shows a sheet saying "Tokyo Jihen new album Sports", okaay.. if you can notice, the other side of the sheet has a table with the track names and their composers... i tried some stupid photoshopping and i got this:

Ikiru: Ringo
Season Sayonara: Ukigumo*
Kachisen: Kameda

*this one is really sure, since his name only has 2 kanjis

2ch are adamant that the 'rumoured' tracklist and credits is true though, as it's popping up everywhere. And as clakaz said, Izawa dominating the album seems to go with the rumoured six Izawa tracks (two co-composed with Ringo). Sorry for 'dirtying' up the page with Japanese XD:
