GUMI - Doku shoku palette

Some classy hard rock from tetraphobia_system and kirakira. Just in case you are too lazy to check Wikipedia, tetraphobia is a superstition that drives people to avoid number 4. But that hardly matters. What matters is that previous songs of tetraphobia, despite lacking some energy, featured delicious, juicy, finest-hard-rock-tuned guitars. Well, the bad news is that deliciousness had been lost somewhere. No, the sound is enjoyable enough. The bass guitar has that soothin’ tone, and drums are just awesome. But still it used to be much better…

The good news is that “Doku shoku palette” has enough energy to kick some old metal slouches’ asses (like mine ;) ). I hope some time we’ll get both the perfect sound AND enough heavy riffs to reach the perfect synergy…

The impact could’ve been even greater this time if not for Gumi. Yes, Gumi, why do you fucking whisper into the mike on the verses parts!? Huh? You say you don’t whisper? It’s just guitars playing too loud? It’s just mixing glitches? C’mon, Gumi, it’s a clumsy excuse. Are you a rock star or some fucking Katy Perry?..
On the second thought, it might explain the deterioration of guitars’ sound…

I roughly translated the title of the song as ‘Pallete of acid colors’
