^Saw them last night for group_inou's tour. The couple new tracks from Illumination they played were so good. It's got more of the IDM stuff that was touched on in The Sun Sank. Also, maybe it was just cause it was live, but felt a bit heavier, with an almost dubstep feel to it. The new sound kinda reminded me of Arakajime Kimerareta Koibitotachi he. Can't wait for the release. Really talented guys. They play live just as well as they do on record. Sadly I will be heading back before their release tour. They apparently played a show in L.A. back in March. Asked if they planned on coming back, and was told maybe next year, so hope that happens.
group_inou was also awesome. A must see live. the energy of their set is amazing. Just an overall fun and feel-good group. They seem to draw in the ladies despite being two geeky looking dudes. lol
Anyways, after long searches, still looking for the new te', kamomekamome, texas pandaa, and luminous orange. Damn mac slsk clients are all dead or unusable so can't look there either... or someone tell me what's worth buying. lol
