review: dir en grey | "dum spiro spero" (2011) preview

Based on the all too short samples up at Amazon.com... (thanks Asari!)

Amazon.com:

Dum Spiro Spero

Sounds like an intro, so let's assume it is.

A little too slow and sludgey.

Worst part of the song, that clip.

Sounds like another Different Sense. Is that good? Hmmm....

A little dreamy, but finally some melody!

More barking and shrieking, and plain, dull drumming.

Twisty little riff and I like the tweeting guitars.

So far, the other songs make this one sound brilliant.

Sunn O))) called, they oh nevermind I just heard some notes detectable by human ears.

Glistening guitars, builds nicely, but does it achieve fission? Stay tuned...

More brainless death metal with insufficient prog elements.

I haven't listened to this song since it came out, and now I remember why.

The ballad! Liking the bass & guitar and overall mood.

Sludgey but smarter than usual, and classy layering.
