WOW. I'm shocked we're not getting just a regular album release. A double album with a great concept. I like the covers and the preview of W FACE as well. Very excited.

The preview on the site won't load for me for some reason. Anyone got a mirror of it?

there you go

Thanks. Not impressed tho, the track sounds pretty boring and I find the pandering of Western fans in the form of "yass bitch slay" so tacky

My expectations for this album will be low but I do like the cover

Releasing a new album is 1 thing but 2 albums on the same day ? :luv2

I like the concept Kuu has gone this time round for her upcoming 2 new albums . I'm intrigued to see which 1 I will like more but of course it will be great if I like both equally

@ maze / Edu , shouldn't you update the 1st post on this ?

OMG I'm dying!!! The concept, the title, the covers, THE PREVIEW. Everything is on point. At first I was meh about the covers, but that font and placement. The pics just looks so mature and edgy. And the title was horrid to me at first, but the explanation makes me love it.

Those lyrics kinda made me cringe a bit too, but I love the production/sound of the track and her voice sounds so clear and soothing.

As someone who loves Ru Paul's Drag Race those lyrics are right on par with everything in life I enjoy lmao. She should have added YAAAAAS MAMA or something lol

EDIT: Random, but the preview uploaded onto YouTube sounds no where near as good as the one posted on her website. All that beautiful bass is gone.

I agree that the 'yes bitch slay' is a bit tacky, I do like the actual song though, sounds good so far.
Looking forward to this release, you dont see double albums much. The last one I remember was Nelly's Sweat and Suit in 2004 haha.

So, alright, I'm compiling every information abou the albums (this just sounds great, haha).

Both albums come in 3 editions, CD Only, CD+DVD, CD+BluRay

W FACE ~inside~ contains songs from ballads to light pop songs, the emotional side. W FACE ~outside~ contains a variation of sounds, from dance tracks to Hip Hop/R&B and also one ballad sung with a simple piano - the aggressive side.

The albums have 3 tie-ins:
- Bring It On is the official song of the Sagan Football Club
- On my way is the theme song for this drama:

- Promise you is the song for the Eyeful Home TV CM

According to the FC shop, all versions have the same covers.
There's FC goodies for every version at the FC shops.
If you buy one of the bundles, you get three of the goodies.
The FC goodies aren't revealed yet.

I am so excited, it's even better than I though it would be!
And it's coming out in pretty much just a month! :heart

sounds awesome:D

The covers that're already released are the CD + DVD versions for both

Her staff shared the preview for W FACE on Twitter with the quote, that it's a start.
Hopefully that means, we will get a new preview every few days.

And it's interesting - March 8th is International Women's Day!

I really love the preview, I missed Kuu so badly!
Can't wait for more!

thats because its not official, its ripped/uploaded from a fansite on facebook

OMG THE PREVIEW :luv2
Hope its for a full song and not an intro os something...I think her albums intros are better than the songs lol Hope not for this time.

previews was okay...wanted something more japanesy...but hey, we get two!

I don't think there will be any intros or interludes this time.

The theme is great and applicable to more than one situation.
They mention there will be intersections in the albums, as those two sides are overlapping. There isn't a Black and White.
And it's great, how you can apply it to the women's situation in Japan - the side, how women traditionally should be in the public eye and the side, they like to pretend doesn't exist to put it strongly.
Btw. On my way is dealing with the theme of inner conflicts, fitting to the main character in the drama.

i searched through Phrased Differently's catalogue and there's only 1 song that matches with the song titles and that's Bassline:
https://soundcloud.com/phrased-diffe...bassline-final

don't like voice in the demo, but with kuu it will sound better for sure if she uses this song

I loved the concept!

It reminds me Beyoncé's "I am... Sasha Fierce"

I really want more PVs... 3 for album is not much for me, But it's ok comparing with ayu last releases...


Wellcome W face era!!!!!!!! :)
