Z CLEAR // サイン (Sain): I’d rather love than be loved

雪 (Yuki) 2 November 2025 No Comments
After the release of their single “広島” (Hiroshima) in late December of 2024, Z CLEAR have released not one, but two new singles: “ぶちROCK” (Buchi ROCK) in April and “サイン” (Sain) in July. That last one is a one-track digital single, but does come with a music video.

“広島” (Hiroshima) already had a strong power of attraction, but this new single is definitely a sign that the group is on to something! It’s power attracted 雪 (Yuki) once more, so she took a closer look at the single and accompanying MV, and is ready to tell you all about it in this review.

NETH PRIERE CAIN // 神の啓示、月光の聖女 (Kami no Keiji, Gekkou no Seijo): Why am I crying, without any light?

雪 (Yuki) 28 September 2025 No Comments
NETH PRIERE CAIN’s single “神の啓示、月光の聖女” (Kami no Keiji, Gekkou no Seijo) may have been released in February of this year already, but the single tells an interesting story of contrast that we do want to share with you.

For that reason 雪 (Yuki) took a closer look at the single and the music video for “オルレアンの少女～la Pucelle d'Orleans～”, and she’s now ready to tell you all about them in this review!

雪 (Yuki) 31 August 2025 No Comments
The newest addition to 摩天楼オペラ (Matenrou Opera)’s discography is the single “AGONY”. Despite only containing two songs, the single showcases exactly what the band is good at while still bringing a new element to the table in the title song.

雪 (Yuki) took a closer look at the single and will tell you all about it as well as the accompanying MV in this review!

DEVILOOF // Devil’s Calling/Angel’s Cry: The story of love that I vow to die for

雪 (Yuki) 3 August 2025 No Comments
Despite being released in August of 2020 and now being considered an ‘older work’ from the group, the “Devil’s Calling/Angel’s Cry” single from DEVILOOF contains two very interesting songs that are connected to each other in a very interesting way.

In this review 雪 (Yuki) takes you deeper into the single to hopefully let you see these two songs in a different light than you might have originally.

DAMNED // STAIN: A sense of emptiness brings no comfort

雪 (Yuki) 25 May 2025 No Comments
In September of 2024 DAMNED released the MV for “STAIN”, following the one for “Thanatosis” that came out in April of the same year. V already covered “Thanatosis” for you, so now it’s 雪 (Yuki)’s turn to cover “STAIN”!

Will this be another banger, or will it be a stain on the band’s reputation? (It definitely isn’t, don’t worry, but we couldn’t resist the pun!) 雪 (Yuki) did a deep dive into the song and will tell you all about it in this review!

ゼラ (Zera) // Uncanny Valley: Let’s keep dreaming scary dreams

雪 (Yuki) 4 May 2025 No Comments
After the release of the “MISSA” single in September of 2024, ゼラ (Zera) are already back to add a new single to their discography. “Uncanny Valley” was released in late February of this year, and exists out of three tracks and a music video. Does this single provide an answer to the uncanny valley-hypothesis or is the name just a placeholder?

You’ve probably already noticed that we’ve been covering ゼラ (Zera)’s works more often recently, so 雪 (Yuki) couldn’t wait to dive into “Uncanny Valley” to find every little tidbit hidden within. And of course tell you all about it! Let’s put the hypothesis to the test together!

Azavana // 灰色の海を泳ぐ蛍 (Haiiro no Umi wo Oyogu Hotaru): Can I still hope for dreams and love?

雪 (Yuki) 27 April 2025 No Comments
The very first single of Azavana, “灰色の海を泳ぐ蛍” (Haiiro no Umi wo Oyogu Hotaru), may be their first single, but it’s definitely not their first release overall. The group already released two mini-albums in November of 2024, but this single really caught our attention with it’s poetic title, and even more poetic lyrics. In this review 雪 (Yuki) takes a deep dive into the single, and is more than happy to tell you more about it as well!

雪 (Yuki) 13 April 2025 No Comments
A year and a half after the release of the single “Kingdom”, NOCTURNAL BLOODLUST return with the release of the digital single “Nail in the coffin” on April 4th 2025. But, is the new song really a nail in the coffin for the group, or is the name just a great target for this joke?

To find a definitive answer to that question, 雪 (Yuki) took a deep dive into the song and after some thorough research she came up with the answer for you in this review!

TRNTY D:CODE // [HELL]hound.: Tame him before daylight

雪 (Yuki) 6 April 2025 No Comments
Despite coming out in November of 2018, TRNTY D:CODE’s second single “[HELL]hound.” contained an interesting mix of ヴィジュアル系 (Visual Kei) and metalcore, ticking boxes for both genres left and right for the currently inactive group.

With this review 雪 (Yuki) hopes to bring an older release back to the surface, while looking at the interesting mix of both genres at the same time.

Z CLEAR // 広島 (Hiroshima): I’ll just be myself

雪 (Yuki) 2 March 2025 No Comments
“広島” (Hiroshima) is already the 11th single for Z CLEAR, but why are we jumping into their work with this single in particular? This single not only contains a wonderful message, it also looks like a unique moment in time for the band themselves.

Originating from 広島 (Hiroshima), the tile of the single alone is a bit of a hint of what’s to come already. 雪 (Yuki) did a deep dive into the single and is more than happy to tell you all about it!

クルエラ (Cruella) // レミゼラブル (Remizeraburu): Collecting the scattered fragments of memories

雪 (Yuki) 23 February 2025 No Comments
“レミゼラブル” (Remizeraburu) is the very first single of クルエラ (Cruella), a band that’s emerged out of the temporary project 悪役〈C〉 (Akuyaku C) in September of 2024. The group released this first single about two months later, in which they combine the madness of the メンヘラ系 (Menhera Kei) style lyrics with a circus to create the three tracks we hear on this single.
雪 (Yuki) took a deep dive into the single to find out more about it, and she’s more than happy to share the results with you today!

蛾と蝶 (Ga to Chou) // アゲハ (Ageha): Follow the rhythm

雪 (Yuki) 2 February 2025 No Comments
“アゲハ” (Ageha) is the very first single of 蛾と蝶 (Ga to Chou), a band with a rather interesting lineup considering the members were formerly seen in projects like Ashmaze., Lycaon, R指定 (R-Shitei) and 己龍 (Kiryu). While the group only officially started their activities on December 24 of 2024, the first single is already there for us to listen to.

雪 (Yuki) did a deep dive into their very first release, and is more than happy to tell you more about this unique project.
