Professional Reviews:

-Excite
AKG’s long awaited 3rd album! The band’s sound has increased in spirit so far above, and the present work has changed from pop to a drastic and dark world view. The single "Blue Train" and the preceding single "World Apart" are some of the songs included in this 11 tune album!


-Oricon
The third album by Ajikan including the singles "World Apart" and "Blue Train" is completed. The thoughts that "a music fan that enjoys music in a wide meaning with life every day" were put into the album's title. The songs have a different atmosphere that is fairly noticeable in songs like "Rojiura no Usagi" and "Mafuyu no Dance".

This album rocks and is by far their best! I love the edgy feel the album has and the lyrics are beautiful! A must have for all AKG fans!
akfgfan

This has gone back to their indie roots and I’m happy! It’s like in between Kimi Tsunagi Five M and Sol-fa. So that’s like perfect. I need to buy this, I might wait for it to come out in the states b/c of the possibility of a DVD. But awesome songs! This is like their best album!
AKFGMan

Wow this albums sounds absolutely amazing. I think it is their best yet. The review is really cool thanks a lot -_- the transitions sounds great. I nottice that they added some acoustics sounds to Blackout : ) which made the song better. Its a diffinite must buy FOR SURE. AKFG really boosted up there creativity on this album. They like used all the sources of music in this and made into a Rock feeling : )
Raisu

YAY! I’m expecting FAN CLUB on march 19. I know it’s only a few days away, but I can’t wait! I’ve downloaded a few songs from their album and it’s definitely amazing. Blue train, World apart, I CAN’T WAIT!
Yuugure no Aka

Even after so many listenings, I still can’t believe how much this album rocks! The highlight for me is Butterfly...just can’t get enough of that song. The music is fantastic, and the vocal melodies are just amazing. I really recommend that every AKFG fan (and even those that aren’t so much) buy this album. ‘Tis one of the best I have heard from any band in a long time.

Kinda disappointed on their recent works. Nothing reminds me of Houkai Amplifier or Kimi Tsunagi Five M. But nevertheless, still good.
nsjong

I completely agree with nsjong, since Blue Train I’ve never get the same feeling as with their previous work. Hope their next work to be more like Blackout or Kimi to ui Hana ^_^
Kobashi

This album is amazing, like all of AKFG’s work! I think I still prefer Kimi Tsunagi Five M since I love Natsu no Hi Zanzou, Mugen Glider, No Name, Understand... the whole album actually. It’s back to their rock roots though, and I have Rojira no Usagi and Butterfly stuck in my head. Those songs are definetely my favourites on the album along with Angou no Waltz and Gekkou. I think it’s really hard to decide upon a unanimous decision on which album is best, since all their songs are brilliant. I’ll definetely be buying this as soon as possible.
Rojira no Usagi

it's just another great production by ajikan. they never fail to deliver great music!! ^_^
Kaze

Angou no Waltz was a good attempt at trying to make it sound like a 3 beat waltz though the chorus didn’t quite work in 4 beats. It’s obvious that Ajikan is expanding in their music and songs like Gekkou, Mafuyu no Dance and Senseless proves it. Great album, must buy if haven’t already.
Zen Aku

It’s a great album. So many new songs for all Asian Kung-Fu Generation fans to enjoy! My friends and I are ecstatic about this release and ordered the album. I just don’t understand why the sales have dropped. RAwr.
