Moe-P-san
has showed up on Nicovideo with one of their work, ‘Asylum’, which was released
on Piapro half a year ago. The one thing you need to know is that the song is
epic. Its epicness shines even through the horribly screwed up mixing! But let
minor technicalities not distract us, for it’s really prime example of good post-hardcore.
Though the most interesting thing that caught my attention is distorted vocals.
Moe-P uses quite a distinct technique which makes screaming rasping and, well, a
way closer to ‘natural’ sound.
OK, now I
know playing djent at half speed is a good idea. Well, ‘Hito yo…’ isn’t djent
strictly, but it’s the closest thing if you add up folk metal (at half speed
too) and acoustic guitar sound. Yes, I’ve used the words ‘djent’ and ‘acoustic
sound’ in the same sentence, what a heresy! :)
But c’mon,
who cares? ‘Hito yo’ is a really nice piece with tight bass and solid
atmosphere. Miku fits just perfectly. Besides, Miku is our religion, what
heresy are you talking about? :)
