Love the alternate cover art!
Since Friday, I've listened through the entire album 3 times on my PSP and/or computer while lounging, and I can say that there is no reason to be disappointed. It just becomes more enjoyable the more I listen to it, and I love the style present in nearly every track. I've burned it to CD's so I'll be listening at work as well for much time to come.
Though I plan to review these tracks individually in the future, I'll name a few of my favorites-
- Deliverance of the Heart (perfect way to start off!)
- Nomura Limit
- Son of Chaos
- Lunatic Moon
- Short Skirts
- Serenity
- Crystal Sermon (Addictive as heck)
- Sephiroth's Wake
- Midnight at Club Corel
- Daydreaming Again
- The Crossroads
- Omnislash
- Beginning of the End
- Black Wing Metamorphosis (In regards to this, I feel this may be the only successful remix of OWA - not because a lack of material, but an abundance of it. Considering that, this came out fricken awesome. I feel deprived at only 3:17, because the drive and build up totally captures the feeling of the situation just as well as the original.)
Though if you put it against A:OWA...wow.
Anyway, this album is a success in every meaning of the word on the highest level. Much love for everyone who worked on this! I shall be enjoying it for years and years to come.
