I think the biggest problem was that avex should not have invested a lot of $ on the guys & girl in the beginning , especially since with the type of music they does , it's not something that will sit well with everyone

I know they were formed to celebrate avex's 20th anniversary but still , this's no excuse . Even other avex artistes didn't had this massive big huge promo in their early hey days unlike gnd :3

Also , gnd didn't really have any big major hits from their discography . I don't even know how will a casual fan of them react if you were to ask them about gnd in general :x

they will release their 15th single on 30th May D: ;_;

omg 30th May is so very far away D: D: D: D: but I'm very happy that after releasing SINGLE COLLECTION , they will still continue to release new material T_T

Really good news !!

preorder links for their new single are already up o_o

http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/list_from_c...tml?key=460195

Their website has been updated with that rather ugly awful yellow background for SINGLE COLLECTION :x

http://girlnextdoor.jp

At least in http://girlnextdoor.jp/profile/ , they look pretty good but Chisa looked like Minnie Mouse to me :x

oh my god. that is most possibly the most insulting color yellow I have ever laid eyes upon. T_T

It's soooo obnoxious!

SINGLE COLLECTION has leaked out

http://www.j-mp3.info/2012/03/girl-n...ollection.html

It debuted at #13 on Oricon.

Honestly, what the heck is the point of releasing a BEST ALBUM when you don't promote it?!

People need to be reminded!

Wow, this was a big fail on Avex and gnd's part, haha.

:thud

Yeah, what's going on with GND? Why are they steadily falling down???

#13 for this shiiit it already too much IMO lol.

So I'm currently listening to Guuzen no Kakuritsu (Dave Ford Mix) right now since this's the only 'new' track in SINGLE COLLECTION

omg am I the only 1 that feels Chisa's vocals is kinda ... weird in here ? o_o that or I'm just so used to the original version for Guuzen no Kakuritsu D:

But yup I stand corrected , this's a best album I don't really have any incentive in getting :x

gnd are doing two promotional things related to people who purchased the best album.

The first is the chance for the members of gnd to come to your house with a signed poster (mu-mo buyers only, 5 people total. The first winner was posted on Chisa's blog), and the second is to win pieces of clothing Chisa wore in jacket covers or music videos (10 winners, you have to send in verification of your purchased copy to Avex, and there are some pictures on their official site in the News section).

To be honest, that -actually- caused me to consider buying a copy.

Oh, I forgot to say this. The cover itself is just the yellow/pink picture. The sleeve case is clear with the title and the single's jacket history printed on it. Once you take the sleeve off it's just the good picture. :P

well at least they're still making every small effort in anyway possible to promote SINGLE COLLECTION

Damn I would love to win if not own some of Chisa's outfits that she wore in their earlier PVs , especially for Jounetsu no Daishou & also Guuzen no Kakuritsu :O

Speaking of Guuzen no Kakuritsu , I don't like the Dave Ford Mix of it D: something about the updated version is just really .... strange if not weird to me

Chisa's vocals on there doesn't sound very good . That or I'm just so used to the original take for Guuzen no Kakuritsu haha

Frankly even if SINGLE COLLECTION had great covers , I wouldn't buy it simply because I'm not pleased with the tracklist :no

Packaging for the CD + DVD

That yellow coloured background is still very X.X but that's 1 awful slipcase cover LOL

the back cover

does anyone have a DL link for their debut album

I deleted most of my files X___X and I can't find that album since it is called Girl Next Door....keep getting porn instead, lol

LOL

I have all their studio albums so I definitely can help you :yes

what file specs do you want me to rip their self titled debut album for you ? 320kpbs ? :confused

any is fine but 320kp would be great

thanks!
