Before I Decay - the GazettE

Strange enough, I like the heaviness of "Before I Decay", as well as the PV.

Apart from the cringy image of Ruki in a glossy leather suit with the red, equally glossy leather gloves, I think I love everything. Well, except Reita, I guess. I can't say much about him. Aside from me not noticing the bass lines part---again---he didn't stand up much in the PV. He should've worn a skirt, then maybe I'll be happier. Not that I hate Reita, I'm just finding him deeper at the back. I hope they'll make videos out of some tracks from DIM since Reita certainly made himself known in most songs there.

Okay, so much for not noticing Reita. Pssh.

I love KAI here~~! And his drumming of course. We discussed long ago that Kai's drumming is getting less and less noticeable in some of their songs before LEECH (because I adore this song for the drums itself). It was like you hear heavy drumming because it's a rock band, but it doesn't give you that feeling of WHOAness anymore. So much love love to our image-evolving drummer, Kai, for doing so well with his instrument now. ^^ Just, honey, please grow your hair. And I fucking mean it. D< I just can't help myself whisper "Shinya..." while I was watching the PV whenever the cam zoomed in on Kai because the cornrows was used first by Dir en Grey's Shinya in their PV "The Final".  And of course, I loved Shinya first.

Next! The lovers, erm, GUITARISTS!
The PV of course was fast and so camera framing of one scene was short to catch the next. LOL'ed enough because I only saw Uru's face by the end of the PV, with zoomed frame of his face. But I did love how he seemed to make a piano out of his guitar. I don't know how they do that~ Of course, he was lovely as ever. I mean he looks lovely, beautiful as always, but he exudes such manliness it's impossible not to wake my Urulove spirit! Aoi was eye-candy. I love love his simple attire, which of course is still reminiscent of his former styles that has long, flowy materials from the side or at the bottom. Well, another one is he makes such sexy poses with his guitar, I couldn't help but snicker. XDD Of course, guitar parts were good, but I have to listen again and again because I was focused too much on the drums. >D

Of course, Rukipe.... nothing much. Ruki's a great vocalist that much I can say. I loved the GazettE first and foremost because Ruki's voice blew me away. From someone so small, he could outtake the other members when he sings from that mic. But technically, there's not much of a change in his singing. And I just really wish he'd cut the English. I can't understand it for the love of god. Most of us can't, yes? But well of course, Ruki's talent has much to do with their success so still kudos to the man.

It's been a while since I took the time to examine much of the GazettE PVs since I'm devoted much to Kagrra, nowadays. But well, I give the love back every now and then. Overall, "Before I Decay", well, is a well-edited PV. It's just that, I hope they would surprise us with something more. From Leech to this PV, I'm just seeing one set that can be changed with tweaks according to the concept, but I do miss the stories given in the PVs like the ones in "Filth in the Beauty", "Silly God Disco", my gaaaaaaad, "Burial Applicant" and well, more. So it's a room full of flouriscent lights now, what's next?

Now I'm listening to "Damashi", the other track from the single. I think it sounds like one of their songs, I just can't pin it down now. Oh well~

Odd enough this morning, actually for the most part of my working hours, I was feeling really out of it. I had enough sleep, but I was sleepy. Smoking, coffee and food were not working so that's bad already. Most of my calls sucked and I think I just regained myself in my last class at 13:00. I get off work at 14:00. Demmet.

But! I discovered something new!
Reading man-t0-man porn in the afternoon certainly does good to the blood. 8D
This is what I call smut-teraphy. >DDD
And great smut writing is <333 I wasn't really used to Uru being the seme and Aoi in a skirt, but that's fine since the writer delivered well. I just hope the other chapters be delivered soon as the plot really has some good potential, especially when the characters and relationships develop as it gets more space.
WEE~ smut spazz!
