Yet Ukigumo plays/bastardizes most of HZM's parts on guitar instead. Ukigumo can't play lead like Hirama could and Ringo certainly can't carry the guitar parts. They need Izawa on guitar to try to bring some drive to the song.

We are lucky they disbanded, right?

Maybe? I would have been perfectly happy if they each went on to do solo things but reunited every couple years to do an album.

When'd Ringo get her bottom teeth fixed? Lots of mouth-closeups in that performance.
I don't think the performance is that bad, but I think it's fair to say they weren't bringing a lot of energy. Ringo really killed the note at 5:18 though, but by then the song is over. |

Does anyone else just think in that performance Shiina just acted more like "-Shiina Ringo-"?
I'm psyched. (Also, its been such a long time since I've heard Gunjo. Its still such a good song.) (I am being waay too positive lately.)

Have listened to it more than a half dozen times so far, on good headphones while walking through bland landacapes, and my mind still wanders.

We should be used to these sub-par Music Station, etc. performances by now (unless this is your first one). The live DVD is where it's at. The only disappointing one was JCHI, IMO, in terms of giving disappointing live renditions of songs (not the quality of the set list itself S&T > Variety)
I'll say more about individual songs in color bar later, but I think it's a pretty disappointing EP bar sa_i_ta. |

I'd say that's a function of the setlist more than anything. Konya kara Sawagi evokes Honnou a little bit (and Shiina holds the mic the same way in the performance and the PV) and obviously Gunjo is their first single and she plays guitar a bit.

Good news for people who like bad news.
