Rui is the dividing line between "suxxors" and "not suxxors" for these people? Figures. Poor Rui - and he brings so much to the band's sound, too! Totally agreed about Red Thread - the song is just WOW. If the rest of the album is as good as that song, it's going to be even better than Biran, and I LOVED that album. All of those bands - Alice Nine, GazettE and SCREW - are growing, developing and maturing, daring to try new things - like Alice Nine's 13-minute prog rock song and GazettE's experiments with dubstep. Would anyone REALLY want a band to just sound the same year after year and never develop? They'd get bored, I think.
