I like Negai more, but really they could've stuck 23:30 on the album too since all the other b-sides were.

I don't really like Negai but I kinda liked the album mix LOL

So I recently listened to ⊿. edge (⊿-mix) is my favorite song. Everything in the song is great and had me interested throughout the whole 8 minutes and 44 seconds xD

^I swear I never realized it's 8 minutes 44 seconds xD Totally agree about the "had me interested throughout the 8 minutes and 44 seconds" part LOL

Perfume's still at #2 today, with sales of 16,311. Estimated total sales so far is 166,902. Looks like the first week won't be able to hit 200k after all xD Maybe 180k.

Miliyah's album which is still at #1 sold 22k today, a drop of only 1k.

^ I hope they will be able to get #1 weekly! Is it possible?

Yep, I'm pretty sure Triangle would get the #1 spot as the debut sales were 90k and Miliyah's was only 36k, so if she wants to catch up with Perfume she would need to sell a lot more for the next 2 days xD

I thought this review was an entertaining read:

"It's tough to listen to Triangle (officially "µ" but that's too much like the whole Prince name thing) for more than 30 seconds without crushing boredom setting in. Of course that's exactly the point and purpose of all that Perfume represents. Even their name suggests that a brief whiff is better than a deep and prolonged inhalation. To fill your lungs is to drown.That's not to say that there aren't a few things here and there to grab onto, only that much of the Triangle landscape is compressed and normalized into a smooth, featureless surface. (Actually, there are exactly two attention grabbers, the hard hitting and slightly strange "Edge" and super smooth and delightfully retro "Night Flight.") The group's signature robotic Auto-Tune style is, of course, in full effect and is the largest contributing factor to the aforementioned boredom. The three girls are completely robbed of any of their own personality. There is nothing human or personal in their performances. They are not human girls, they are pure fantasy. There isn't a single word on Triangle that came from a human throat. They are the Hello Kitty of the pop music world, a blank canvas on which their fans can project whatever personal, inner fantasy they may want to believe.[more trash-talk and video clips after the jump]* [Flash: Ci8REzfzMHY&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color 2=0xcd311b]Of course Perfume isn't entirely to blame for the onslaught of fake pop that has surged to prominence in recent years. Indeed the true evil here is the software package called Vocaloid. This is the same sort of text to speech tech seen on computers everywhere, only with the ability to alter the pitch and tempo. That's really all it is, yet the software has given birth to the biggest fake singer in history, Hatsune Miku, a real-world Sharon Apple. It is the idolization of this carbon-copy singing style that has allowed for equally fake groups like Perfume to become massive hits, much to the delight of major label execs everywhere, no doubt. Quite literally anyone with a computer can create a group like Perfume overnight, and at little to no expense. Add in digital distribution and it's nothing but profit all the way down.As long as you're not looking for originality, complexity or any sign of a nail sticking up above the rest, you'll find a lot to love with Perfume. Really, this is pop music, not exactly the place to be looking for visionary song-writing or subtlety. When you have only a few seconds to grab someone during a TV commercial or while they shop in the local strip mall, you've got to go for the feel-good, toe tapping beat and little else. That's exactly what you get with Perfume. A beat, but no pulse."

just wonder, does anyone feel bored with perfume's same choreography in each song's performance? :laugh

Triangle is back up to #1 with sales of 20,851!!! The estimated total so far is now 187,753! Looks like a 200k first week is possible after all! LOL

OMGA! =O!!!!!

It's nice to see Perfume is doing well on the charts!!

LOL at that review!

I can't believe he didn't praise Dream Fighter!! That song is the most addicting song EVER!

hmmm...

i love Perfume when im listening to their stuff. i dont really watch their concerts or anyone apart from Ayumi. Then a friend of mind showed me their GAME tour and then Disco!x3 concert. i found their concerts boring since they don't really change anything much. i think if you consider it as a DANCE CONCERT, it would be fine. but their dance steps are stagnant. the only good thing that came out of Disco!x3 is the medley. most of it were fresh. i got bored fast!

anyway, me and my friend are huge Perfume fans... but we believe that they are a short-lived group. but that's our point of view. we dont know japan, so maybe having a different culture may leave a different impact... but if they were a group here in PH. HA! good luck. xD.

And of course I missed all the videos posted because they were taken down.. :(

That "review" about Perfume was... interesting, but I don't really agree with everything he said.

Perfume stayed at #1 with sales of 17236.

Yay! They broke the 200k mark with total estimated sales now of 204,989!!

this has to be a new record, second consecutive number 1 for an electroalbum... and what else? =O let's wait for oricon to publish something about it!

GO PERFUME! the album is really good!...

oh and if someone wants to read the translations of the 3 of the songs from the album: VISIT HERE. I still love U has AWESOME lyrics!
