Following Azagrath example and I agree with most of it.
1. EVERYBODY SAY YEAH (5.5/10)Don't really like the vocals on this one. Haruna sounds really nasal. The 'everybody say yeah' sounds really poppy.
2. 太陽と君が描くSTORY (8.5/10)Love this song. Nice summer vibes.
3. 瞬間センチメンタル (9/10)I like rock and metal, which is why I want Scandal too rock too. They do so on this track
4. 放課後1H (7.0/10)Tomomi's high pitched vocals are great imo. I just wished there was a bit more variation in this song, I keep waiting for it to finally take off..
5. 涙のリグレット (8.5/10)This song really grew on me over the past weeks. Typical ballad, but well executed
6. Hi-Hi-Hi (6/10) I can see it's appeal, but this style isn't my thing. Yes, I'm really picky.
Fast paced vocals like did never really do it for me.
7. 少女M (3/10)Mami on vocals? It's a really boring song
8. GIRLism (6/10)Scandal on autopilot. Short and doesn't stand out.
9. プレイボーイPartⅡ (7/10)Catchy into riff, nice beat. Ok song.
10. Hello!Hello! (8/10)Happy, feel good, nice mix of vocals
11. 会いたい (7.5/10)I'm beginning to spot a theme here. It seems that most of the tracks are 'decent' or 'good enough'.. Like Azagrath mentioned, the mid-section saves the song. Why couldn't the whole song be like this? The rest is, once again, Scandal on auto-pilot.
12. さよならMy Friend (8/10)Very nice. Fitting song for the last song of the album, nice melodies
-------
What to say... Better than the first album? No, because it lacks catchy songs. A lot of these songs are kinda weak and don't stand out. They are not bad songs! But it lacks some power and catchy tunes. The singles are definitely the best songs on the album. This could mean two things. 1. The other songs need to grow on me too. 2. Maybe my perception of Scandal is just wrong. Maybe they aren't the killer rock band I want them to be at all. Which would explain why I keep expecting different things from them. I'd rate this album around a 7.5/10 on average; it's good, but not great.
