Had the album for about a week now, so I now have a feel for the tracks, so here is my review!

THE introduction - This is really...strange, it doesn't really have the power for an opening track, but at the same time it's REALLY PS1 era Final Fantasy, so it's really tense at the same time and builds up to the explosion of Microphone! It's good! ♥ 3/5

Microphone - I was crazy over this when it was all we had of the album, it's kinda lost its oomph now though, I really like it though! 9/10

count down - I like this until it gets to the chorus, it's very similar to GUILTY, which I don't really like much, it's better though. The mood of the song is really good though, emotive! 7/10

Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~ - I hated this when the single was released, I love it so much now though! It's so peaceful and calm. This starts my favourite section of the album. 8/10

BALLAD - I love this song so much too! I can't really explain why I like it, it's so magical and beautiful. The PV is so stunning too.9/10

Last Links - My favourite song on the album! Wow. Just wow. This song is everything I love from Ayu, it's emotive but not melodrama. I love the sound of this song, I don't think Ayu has had a song with this sort of feel. 10/10

montage - So dramatic! THE introduction is the game opening and this is the villain wanting to destory the world! I only wish it was longer, it ends rather abruptly. 4/5

Don't look back - This was my least favourite song when we have the 4 PVs, but I love it so much now. I especially love how Ayu says "don't look back" - so mysterious and seductive! 10/10

Jump! - Neutral towards this, don't really dislike or like. 2/5

Lady Dynamite - This is so good! I really love it, and the PV too. It's a fun song, but Ayu is really in your face with it too. 8/10

Sexy little things - Uhhm... I appreciate how different it is, it's catchy, and I do like it. But I just don't get it and the hype, I like it as much as Lady Dynamite, but it doesn't beat the less daring, like Last Links. 8/10

Sunset ~LOVE is ALL~ - This is catchy! I never got into this last year as we got it too late for summer, but with spring being here I'm really getting into this! 8/10

meaning of Love - After Sunrise?! I like this, it's typical Ayu, but it sounds very different in places at the same time - kinda confusing! 7/10

You Were... - A nice strong winter ballad, right in Ayu's comfort zone! Not the best, and far from being the worst. This was the song that I listened to after meeting Ayu and cried - so it's got a sentimental place now. 8/10

RED LINE ~for TA~ [album version] - I really like this song, and the a capella at the end it really touching, even if sort of weak in vocal power - but I love the sentiment nevertheless. I love the lyrics to this song too, they go right to my heart right now. 9/10

Overall: 8/10 I like it less than Secret, more than GUILTY and about the same as NEXT LEVEL - but for totally different reasons.
