I heard clips from it before because they were posted in the fanclub and it sounded great.
Its just taking forever to download
I ordered both versions but I just cant wait to get it in a few days (no patience)

ack! *downloads*
though im still gonna try to buy the album.

i'll come write some crappy review later ^^

Gaaahhhhhh...no download slot available...someone hates me!

*hits F5*

i downloaded already. try again amber chan

andddd.

WHY DONT YOU BREAK THE MIRROR? JUST LIKE YOU MEAN IT.
damn that song is so catchy

man i'm so tempted to download it right now.

I should occupy myself so I won't think about it.

I got it...listening to it right now.

I'm officially in love. Can't wait to see Despa play those songs live!!!

zomg. i skipped screen @ first.
but its a REMAKE~!

ah i like this version more!
damn despa has so many surprises! <3

^ I really shouldn't be in this thread but everytime I see a new reply in here I just click

I just realized something weird....usually when I pre-order a CD they usually send me an email telling me they sent it a day before it's released (since the time in Japan is earlier)...but I didn't get an email yet

lol, *pats* its just one week! one week.
and plus you'd be happy with your bonuses and poster.

man i'd be hella happy.

Hahahaha, YAY! THE ALBUM IS OUT! *throws confetti* XD
Though, I ordered my copy of the album, along with Rentrer en soi's new single, that comes out in a week. =( So I won't get mine for another week or two. T____T I'm pretty good at waiting though. AND I MADE ROOM ON MY WALL FOR MY POSTER! >=]

@Anna: You ordered from CDJapan, yes? I ordered something from them last month, and it released on the 28th, and I didn't get an e-mail till the 29th, my time, but the receipt or whatever it is you get in the package, said they shipped it on the 28th Japan time, so they just might be slow getting an email to you. ^^ Don't worry.

^haha thanks Britt! Darn the slowness! So i'm guessing you're not going to dl the album either? lol

Ok..I thought it was only me but I havent gotten an email from CDJapan either..

Actually, I just checked my CDJapan account and it says it is in "shipping process"..so weird.
Id check your account on CDJapan. Maybe something is wrong with their email system...

^ Mine is also in "shipping process"

They're probably getting the packaging and stuff done. I'm sad. This means they are sending it out later than usual....and this means a delay in me listening to the album

^With my last order, it said it was in "shipping process" the day it released (Japan time) and it said that for almost two days... the item released March 28th, and I got it on March 31st, my time, which is about 4 days total, and I selected the shipping that said it'd take 4-12 days to arrive.
So, it sounds like it'll be the same for you guys. ^^ I think CDJapan is just a little slower with getting things updated and emails sent then normal. Like the other day, I screwed up an order, and I didn't realize it until it was too late for me to cancel on the site, so I had to email them, and it took them three days to email me back that they canceled. o_____o
So I wouldn't worry too much. They've always been good at getting stuff shipped out when the site says they will (and for pre-orders, it always says they ship the day it releases). Maybe they're just down a few people who work on emailing and the site. *shrug*

@Anna: Nah, I'm not going to download the album. ^^ I mean, whats the point of Pre-ordering something if you're going to listen to it before you get it? Plus, I get more excited when I listen to it for the first time when I actually get the cd. It convinces me even more that buying the album was soooo worth all that money.

im ordering it this week,
you guys wont be disappointed
its an awesome album

@ Britt: hahahah yea I'm waiting too. But its so hard

and yay it shipped today!!

*nods* agree but T.T hope i can wait that long since my copy will be shipped with my other stuff like at the end of this month urgh...

can you guy show me the poster and the digipak?
coz i pre-ordered the regular edition ;-;

^ the regular edition pre-order comes with the poster too right?

I'll post up pics when I get it if no one else has ^^

^no for this time o(>__<)o or it's because i was late for pre-ordering again o.o
that's why i pre-ordered vidoll's &myv's new single today to make sure that i'll get the posters&cd/dvd before they're sold out again

thank you in advance, anna~!

^ aW that stinks. I remember seeing that they were giving out posters too = T Maybe that was while supplies last.

and no prob ^^

I'm excited. If the poster is the same as their profile pic on their myspace I will be very happy

^uwahhh T-T *sighs* i hope so...it'd be perfect to pin their posters on the wall...i mean..it's like black&white versions...*dreams*...alskdfjlsdkfsdf i still wait for joining their official fanclub ;-;

^ haha yea I want to join their FC too but then we wouldn't be able to go to FC only concerts or what not

Despa's confirmation. And I get it now.
It's a two day thing, the 25 and the 26. They are obviously playing the second night with the mentioned bands...

^ So they return to the US...they said they would.

*sighs* Sorry...I'm not in the best of moods...

Why don't I shoot myself now...it's in LA
and GIRUGAMESH is going too....ahhhhh *bang bang*


I want to cry in a corner but I have to study now

the only thing stopping me from really getting emo is that Gaze isnt going xD

*nods* I wonder if Gaze will do ANY kind of appearance outside of Japan this year...*sighs*

^ I want to see MUCC too but what kills me is D'espa.....i REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY want to see them again.

*dies*


SIDE NOTE: Yoshiki will be announcing the 4th member of his super band during the festival.. *ahem*miyavi*ahem*

and OT: @ pou: nope I haven't heard anything. I went to their OHP but there wasn't much up yet. And haha I wasn't sure if that was THE Daisuke from Kagerou cuz I don't listen to them. But I knew the singer was named Daisuke lol. But deadman <3 I loved Mako lol

........

i feel like crap already cause i screwed up so bad on my test today.

and now this comes. despa. miyavi. girugamesh.

this is too much for my emo self right now.............

*hugs everyone* It's alright. Even though none of us get to go, we should all be happy for the bands that'll be there. It's good for them all to be able to play outside of Japan, so lets just be happy for that. ^^

@hydest (sorry, I don't know your name T___T) OT, but you're excited for The Studs too? Hahaha, two of the members I don't really know, but Gullet was one of the first jrock bands I got into, so I'm happy to see one of their members back in music, and of course there's Daisuke. I was so upset the day Kagerou broke up, that I skipped school. >__<
BTW, you said you ordered the regular version of Mirrors? Would you be kind enough to scan it or take pictures of it when you get it? I ordered the limited version, but I wanna see what the regular one looks like. ^^

yah, Im happy for them ^^ doesnt mean I cant be bitter about where they're playing though XD

I wish I was rich, then I could just go! *nudges Yoshiki* psst, send them to Europe >.>

oh well, my emo corner went out of use since Diru decided to play here in August, so I'd better go warm it up for this event

I'm happy for them, too. It's not that what makes me upset at the moment.

Sorry guys...I know i'm rambling...but it's stange. Every time I go through a hard time in my life, it's music that keeps me going. When I was doubting myself it was Gackt who helped me through.

Right now it's Despa.

I don't know who of you guys reads my LJ (I don't know who I added to my friends list) so just a short note for those who couldn't/didn't read my last post there.

My mother was sent to the hospital yesterday and she's in intensive care now. I realy feared for her life last night. I had my mp3 with me and it helped me stay strong...it also helped me cry...and it was Hizumi who sang me to sleep this morning, when I finally went to bed.

I don't know what I'd do without music.

^ =OOO omg *hugs amber* hope she get well soon >O< it's hard time but you'll get through it...i mean everything will get better i do hope >_<


oh it's o.k. i'm Pou *waves* what's your name? yeah xD &can't wait to hear their music x] uwahh...skipping school? >< i wasn't that upset just a bit of shock >< but i remember the feeling when tenten left KuRt and it's disbanded like 2 months later, i cried a lot T^T and still cry over them every time i listen to thier music...
of course, i will ^^ but my package will arrive here few days after my last pre-order release (25th this month) ><

@anna : yeah it's the same daisuke xD
@shirley : *pats* do your best for the next time then >_< good luck~!
@ginny : *-* i wish diru were come performing here just once...you're so lucky~!

*hugs Amber* I wish you the best. And I dont know what I'd do without music either. It's such a big part of my life. Well, I could rant forever about music but I wont xD I will just say that it is very, very dear to me. More dear than anything at the moment. I couldn't live without it. It gets me through everything.

You know, I suddenly feel very old. There are children yelling and cussing like you wouldn't believe in my apartment building grounds. Their ages are different but the eldest ones must be about 11 at most. And the language they're using is terrible. And not just the language but the frequency at which it appears. I mean, they're kids. They shouldnt be speaking like that, and I'd sure as hell never let my children talk like that. I dread to think what their parents must be like. They're arguing as well. Saying things like, "I'm gonna f**k you up, you f**ker." Whatever happened to a good old kick in the shin?

btw Pou, something about your name is so cute XD; and dont worry! Im sure you'll see Diru someday. I thought they'd never come here o___o

@Pou & Ginny: Thanks, you two. *hugs* I just returned from the hospital and my mom seems to be in stable condition now. She's exhausted (she lost 2/3 of her blood due to internal bleedings) but fine and already bored to death because she's too weak to read books *laughs*

@Ginny: *nods* I feel the same, whenever I hear youngsters these days. *shakes head*

^ aW Amber i'm sorry to hear about your mom. I'm glad she's doing ok now. Stay strong! Music is basically another outlet for the soul. There's so many feelings when you listen to music (good music at least lol). D'espa always makes me feel great.

well i'm off to take a test that decides if I can make it to the next year of college. I need a 100% and an 80%. WHYYYY?!?!??!?!?!? Well, wish me luck.

^ good luck ^^

I hated tests so much .__.

^same here +_+ thanks, ginny ^^ i think your name is cute either x3

Good Luck, shirley~!!!! ganbatte ne~! >O<

@amber: glad to hear that your mother gets better =D

...i did it...dled mirror...listened to it...and...=X

^ pou!! you didnt wait? what you think of it?

omg.
i got a 90 on the test. (thankgosh)
sigh, i felt so much better and relieved when i got my test back today!
thanks pou and everyone else that wished me luck ^^

@amber: omg, i hope she gets better soon! dont worry, i bet she'll be fine stay strong!

@anna: goooooood luck!!! im sure you do well supersmartgirlfromtech

LOL night 2 (imo) has the bigger bands of the line up playing.....I can see the tickets selling out in minutes already.....
That's like a dream line up right there.

^You totally beat me to the punch, I was about to post that...
Night one... kills me because of the alice nine. and vidoll. *squeals*
But night two will be way too much fun. Just... fun. Fun fun fun. I'm feeling rather simple minded at the moment.

Ah... my dad... I think I can persuade him to let me go and front the funds until I can pay him back. *fingers crossed* Because if he says yes I already have roomies, a hotel room on the street the Wiltern is on, and... >.> I forget.

But tickets. Ahh... I forsee them selling quickly too. *worried*

^ Yea I definitely think the tix will be sold out within an hour tops lol. Since its only TWO shows at the same venue and the bands are split. People who like one band playing on each night would definitely buy both days. Hell I think everyone who is even planning on going is going to buy for both nights. For me, if I had to choose, I would definitely get tix for Day Two.... D'espa + Girugamesh + MUCC (my friend said they are awesome live) = OMFG!!!!

I just pray that if the tickets get sold out at record speed, they'll try to organize another JRock festival....and bring it to other parts of the US (hey...I can at least dream lol)

I think, with as successful as this will be, they will plan more of these "festivals". My only fear is that Gazette will be brought over next time (apparently they tried to get them this time around but it didn't come together quickly enough). And... I won't have the money. Because Gazette is like... my dream band to see. T____T

Lol... me and a friend are fighting over how good Mirror is. I just "ended our friendship". LMAO!

^ haha I still didn't listen to Mirror yet...soon...Monday i'm hoping to get my package ^^ I've been only hearing good reviews about it so i'm excited.

I would love to see Gaze too. I'm not as huge a fan as I used to be but they were always a band that I have wanted to see (I'm still a jumbo fan of Ruki though. I would travel very far to see that man do his pelvic thrust live). If they went this year....I don't know what I would do.

For D'espa i'm thinking that they will definitely be back to tour sometime soon so i'm not too worried. But for some of the other bands they may not be back for a while so that's why I really want to go. Like seriously, when will Girugamesh be back?!?! WHEN!?!?

Oh Yea: Duel Jewel fans, they said on the JRRevolution myspace that they are planning to tour America this summer. Hope they do. I would see them. Yuya is freakin hilarious.

I second that. I've seen them live twice in a very short amount of time (one week ) when they were touring Europe with BALZAC. And MUCC are really awesome live, honestly.

Gaaaahhhhh...that reminds me...we still need to send off the photos from the photoshoot and the concert-pics...

And sorry for the short OT ^^

to me, the ultimate dream concert would include Dir en grey, Gazette, Rentrer en Soi, Miyavi and D (additional bands would be like...alice nine, Girugamesh and SID)

Ohhh yeah. I would just pass out from the awesome. Of course if hide were alive it would include him too.

Diru and Gaze in the same building @_@

^or diru + sadie *runs away*

it's awesome to see all those bands but my dream would be like...going for each of their concert *-* so i can scream/faint/melt/crazy or whatever with those two hours xDDD

D'espairsRay is always my no.1 dream concert...hope it will be true...someday *sighsssss*

^ Diru and D'espa in one building would make me flipping freak out. Though i've seen both of them so I can't complain much....but I want to see D'espa in a headling tour since the last time they only played for half and hour

and hahha Sadie....I like Sadie...it'll be cool to see them live (they're on my "additional bands" list lol) but I wonder what Diru thinks of them.....I mean Sadie did used to do a lot of Diru covers....sorry OT

@ Amber: Does Yukke still have his bowl haircut? LOL

Sadie is a really cool band. Man, these Jrock threads are such a free-for-all

OT rules!!!1
