Liar is one of those songs that I never feel like listening to or that pops to mind when I think of amazing Ayu songs, but I went back to it after this thread and it's so good!
The only criticism of it I have is that the guitar could sound a bit harder.
Actually, I feel that the guitars on My Story could be harder or edgier as a whole and it'd really make the album. Maybe it's a "not very polished, yet not very raw" thing it has going for it. It just lacks edge as a whole.
As far as albums go, My Story is very similar to Duty (and LOVE again) to me in atmosphere and musically. They both flow well and are good playing from beginning to end, though I feel they're really muted and need a harder sound. The tracks are better on their own...
No, I think they sound more distinctive on their own.
The hardest album for me to enjoy is Party Queen and I am.... Party Queen just never did anything for me, and just seems like the most lackluster parts of Next Level (which is great) and Five hobbled together.
I am... feels strange. The singles don't fit the rawness of the album tracks so there's no cohesiveness to it. It'd be alot more enjoyable to me if they either stripped the singles down a bit or polished the tracks up.
Points in its favor:
*Taskinlude
*Opening Run and connected
*Naturally
Negative Points:
*Endless Sorrow ~Gone with the NyQuil~ version (has better vocals, doe)
*still alone was better in the Takano Yuri cm
