GIRL NEXT DOOR will Be your wings in their 3rd thread

[hpg23]

^ I agree with you, I only liked the album for the single tracks and the instrumentals x___X

It disappointed me as heck too, although their singles make up for it. Maybe the next album will be better?

(I remember now, Winter Game was good too, that with Day's and NEXT DOOR were the only good tracks on the album)

I think it's a strict judgment. You should tell you that it's their first album. It's really rare to find a perfect debut album.

[NintendoHTF1242]

^ Eh, true. But still, They didn't really need to make every track sound like each other. Winter Game sounds like a watered-down version of one of their single tracks.

[KarenPang]

well Lisa & I like it so

helps that we both have copies of their debut album too & like what Yoake said , it's their debut album after all so some slack should be cut off

[KarenPang]

really , is their self titled debut album THAT bad to begin with ? I find it very entertaining from the start to the end even though some songs tend to get repetitive on me

Somemore I pretty much love all the album tracks & the only one that I did not really like up to now's Shiawase no Jouken

I have heard worst jpop debut albums that's supposedly 'worst' than this *points to Shota Shimizu's Umbrella album sadly

[Beauty4123]

i can't even count how many times i've listened to GND's debut album. i seriously love every song and i listen to it, at least, a few times each month, lol. i don't see the hate. i mean, i understand how some people may find the similarities in each song of theirs, but despite the same style, the songs aren't that bad

guess we're in the minority, karen? yay

[KarenPang]

haha yeah Lisa & at least there're subtle differences of sorts from 1 track to another in their debut record which's not a bad thing

I do hope their 2nd album will be even better than their debut as it's quite a known fact that usually albums that artistes make after their debut tend to sound worst than their debut but I hope the trio will not fall into that trap

[NintendoHTF1242]

I just didn't like any of it. I gave it a D- because I just got bored with the sound. And CHISA's vocals aren't the best to begin with. Just because it's their debut doesn't really matter. I still have yet to hear anything post-GND era. But I hear people praising infinity. So I hope that's good for me.

the song's nice but eh , the PV is something worth considering else

[hpg23]

All of their singles are great quality, there's no one of them that I don't like.

My favorite is Jounetsu no Daisho (MASTERPIECE!) and the worst imo would be Drive away (although I love it to pieces, but compared if I had to pick one as the "worst" it would be Drive away. It's an amazing single anyway)

[NintendoHTF1242]

^ Ironically Drive away is the only single song that stood out to me.

[KarenPang]

I said in a few posts back that Shiawase no Jouken's still my least fave A-side of the trio & it still's LOL

[Beauty4123]

shiawase no joken grew on me after time. most of their songs have

[KarenPang]

I don't know , I just never really like Shiawase no Jouken that much as compared to their other A-sides

Even I managed to like all the A-sides in Be your wings / FRIENDSHIP / Wait for you so

What really impresses me about GND is that they always have fantastic music videos. I love that and their artwork is really really pretty too.

[KarenPang]

their PVs are entertaining for sure & that goes for the single & album covers work that they have from their debut til now

at least they hired the right people to get their graphics artwork & PVs right

Yes I gotta agree. I think they've been using the same director for a while.. hope they continue because he seema to be doing a fantastic job

[KarenPang]

other than Infinity which I find it subpar , the rest of their PVs are either very entertaining or looks expensive

[Beauty4123]

i don't think winter game was such a good PV, though. despite those ski-ing scenes, lol. i prefer infinity
