First, let me begin with a hot comment from a customer to BAND-MAID's "New Beginning," writing:
Title: Thrill (Rated 5 stars)

I discovered this group by accident on youtube. Look up Band Maid Thrill and watch the video.  I was amazed by the sound; the bass solo by Misa and the lead guitar solo by Kaname are fantastic. The drumming is amazing by Akane-- trust me she drums like a mad woman.  Saiki's singing is strong and amazing.  Miku holds her own as well. Simply put this album rocks all the way through with strong songs.

My personal faves are Thrill, Freezer, Real Existence, Don't Let me Down and Shake That.  But all of the songs on this album are great.  I Like the dvd too, it works in any player so do not worry about region encoding.  It has two great videos:  Real Existence and Don't Let Me Down. Overall this set was well worth the price and I would definitely love to see these young and vibrant rockers in concert.  5/5.

Thank you Shane! He emphasizes;
The drumming is amazing by Akane-- trust me she drums like a mad woman.
Thankfully, we can make sure about that swiftly with official music videos BAND-MAID uploaded.


Akane's drumming is REALLY wild!, exactly like Shane says.
. . . are you becoming curious? Okay, we put a brief profile of them;

Back to our selection.  

In 2015, the GazettE's album "DOGMA" was sold the most in our music category, and deserve it, lots of customers commented on that. Let me choose one;
Title: Worth every penny! (Rated 5 stars)

The other two reviews (sally's & Nathan's *Staff's note) here pretty much sum up how awesome this album is! ;D And let me tell you, this version is worth all the extra money! You won't be disappointed at all! I've had this album for a couple weeks now, and I still get super excited when listening to it or looking through the books :3

I'm here to point out the DVDs specifically! In the description on here, it states that the DVDs are region 2, so I was worried that I wouldn't be able to watch them due to possible region restrictions. But upon further analysis, when I received my copy, I discovered that on the label on the back of the plastic packaging the album was wrapped in, and one the discs themselves, it says NTSC "ALL"! So fear not, you can watch the DVDs, wherever you are in the world! \(^w^)/ Which makes this Ver. That much more worth it!! (** There are no subtitles though, but it doesn't really take away from the experience **) So go enjoy this album to its fullest, my fellow Sixth Guns! GAZEROCK IS NOT DEAD! -USA fan <3

Before closing this feature, I can't help myself to select this well organized & moving voice to Namie Amuro's "_genic," saying
Title: By Far Her Best Work Yet!! (Rated 5 stars)

Namie delivers one of the best albums of the year! He English has greatly improved and her style has exceeded all expectations! This girl knows how to bring her A-game! With 80s and 90s vibes and synthetic beats throughout the whole album.
Here's my track by track review:

1) Photogenic (5 stars) A perfect intro song to the album! This song was truly written for her because she really is so "photogenic"! "Here you go paparazzi"!

2) Time Has Come (5 stars) This is my favorite track on the entire album! The piano in the verses bring a sensational chill along with the rhythmic pop. And her vocals are so crisp and perfect English!

3) Golden Touch (4 stars) This song has great potential! The mv was very interesting but the music is top of the line! Japanese and English are used here, but if you ask me, she should've done all English but it's still an amazing track!

4) Birthday (5 stars) I was instantly attracted to this song! This song has that catchy chorus that gets stuck in your head all day, but it can stay there! I love it!

5) It (4 stars) This song has very precise lyrics that greatly improve the album by offering a unique twist. "If loves a game I just wanna be It"!

6) Scream (3 stars) Though I adore all of her songs, this one would be my least favorite. It's great with heavy auto tune. Still amazing!

7) Fashionista (4 stars) The video is amazing and she really brings the beat!

8) Fly (5 stars) I was instantly attracted to this song as well! It deserved a mv! Just listen and you'll see!

9) B Who I Want to B (4 stars) Perfect song for the _genic feel! I just wish it was longer! The robotic sound and feel is really club sounding!

10) Stranger (5 stars) This music video was by far the best of all! The music itself was amazing! You can really tell that Zedd hand crafted this for Namie!

11) Every Woman (4 stars) Cute and wonderful English! A woman empowerment anthem for sure!

12) Space Invader (5 stars) The of the best lyrically written tracks on here! I can't stop listening to it!

13) Anything (5 stars) An amazing and inspirational ballad to end all ballads!

14) What I Did for Love (5 stars) David Guetta with Namie Amuro = a masterpiece! A perfect a ding to a great album!

This was the first time I ordered a CD through CDJapan and I have absolutely no regrets! (June 13, 2015 from MJ/SG UNITED STATES)
