I found an interesting article.

The most underappreciated Japanese music of the last decade:

[boykun]

Cool article. I didn't realize KZK was that underappreciated. All good albums on the list, though I've not heard the Citrus album.

Will edit with my decade list later.

[Stryfe]

Yeah I'll add mine too later on. Can safely say KZK will be on that list.
