Should I Be Glad That Tales Of The Abyss Retains Its Theme Song?

I’ve never played the game since I never owned a PS2, so I shall not speak of what I lack knowledge of. However, I can confidently say that I’ve looped through its theme song, Karma, for at least a few hundred times ever since I started listening to Bump of Chicken back in 2006. I was quite surprised that the anime adaptation’s using Karma as the opening theme song too. With this, Bump of Chicken will now have 2 songs out of their entire discography related to anime. In case you’re wondering, the other song is Sailing Day, which was the ending theme song for one of the One Piece movies.

Bump Of Chicken - Present From You

Hurray, yet another Bump of Chicken release. This time, it’s an album with all their past singles’ B-sides compiled. Running at 13 tracks, the last song, Present, is a totally brand new track.


Simple design does the trick

Bump Of Chicken New Releases

This is another one of those non-anime music posts that no one cares about, but I’ll just write on anyway, since I love Bump of Chicken and their music. Their music is really awesome, and they should be given much more attention and love.

Anyway, coming out on 14th May, Orbital Period. Don’t be mistaken by the name as it has the same name as their album released last December. This time, it’s the DVD version containing the latest PVs. I’m looking forward to this, since their PVs have been rather good. Here’s the PV tracklist.

SPACE SHOWER Music Video Awards 08

I don’t have a habit of looking forward to music awards. However, music award nominees are often good sources to find great music, especially in the new artiste category. Take this year’s SPACE SHOWER Music Video Awards for example. I somehow came across the nominee list, and some of the nominees in the new artiste category caught my interest, namely 9mm Parabellum Bullet and Monobright.

2 Down, 2 More To Go

I guess this post’s title could be applied for 2 matters. My examination, as well as my Gurren Lagann DVDs. Just this morning, the FEDEX delivery man brought in my amazon package. To my surprise, it was intact. No ripped up box with missing DVDs that were sent to the MDA, unlike my previous package. Whew, I guess luck is on my side this time. I hope it’s on my side too, when I order the Evangelion 1.0 DVD.

Just in case you are bored of me blabbering on and on, I shall reveal evidence of the loot.

Bump of Chicken - Orbital Period

This is what I have been looping for the past few days ever since Bump of Chicken’s new album’s latest album was released a few days ago, on the 19th of December. Just in time for Christmas ^^

17 tracks and 1 hidden track. Let me do a brief run through all the 18 tracks. Of course, I have selected some music samples that would be provided. After all, what good is a music review without the readers being able to listen to the music firsthand?

I can barely contain my excitement. If the release of Mayday and Hana no Na was awesome, I cannot find any words to describe this album. This would make a good X’mas present too.

The name of this album sounds pretty similar to Jupiter. Makes me wonder if this album is the continuation of the musical feel that Bump Of Chicken was trying to bring out in Jupiter.

BUMP OF CHICKEN 万歳!

24/10 is the day I await eagerly

What’s on the 24th of October?

BUMP OF CHICKEN AND GURREN LAGANN !!!!

I mentioned in a post quite some time ago that Bump of Chicken’s new single, 花の名, would be released on 24/10. I missed about another piece of news.

They are no longer releasing the single anymore.

Why?

That’s because they are releasing 2 singles on the very same date!!! This is the first time I have ever heard of a Japanese artiste releasing 2 singles on the same date. Amazing!!!

The second single is メーデー(Mayday).

2 singles release would also mean 2 hidden tracks. This is seriously going to get exciting.

I’m already hyped up just by listening to 花の名. You should listen to it too!


Sugoii desu ne. I really like how Bump Of Chicken’s slower songs have a soothing effect.
