AKFG’s fourth full-lenght album! I love them, but sadly, I’m not updated. x.x I didn’t even know they released a single, Korogaru Iwa, Kimi ni Asa ga Furu, on my birthday xD All I knew was that the last single was Aru Machi no Gunjou xD LOL. Now, I’m going to update myself on AKFG. YEAH~!

Comments:
So, 244 ENDLI-x is 堂本剛 (Domoto Tsuyoshi)’s new name, well, for his solo prject, at least. :D Special guests for this album are Bonnie Pink and Chaka (Psy S.) I haven’t listened to him as ENDLICHERI☆ENDLICHERI much, but I’m very impressed with his voice. He is the reason why I love KinKi Kids. ♥♥♥ Anyway, I’m sure I’m going to love this album. I LOVE TECHNO. xD Oh, and I don’t know what a twin-ray digipak case is. xD ♥
P.S. I’ll make my post about “Kurikaesu Haru” next. :D
edit: Posted the tracklists. I’m not sure with “脳”, though. It’s two things: Brain and Memory, but I typed “Memory” instead of “Brain” because it sounds better, I guess. LOL. I’m not sure on how to translate これだけの日を跨いで来たのだから and ソメイヨシノ. I need help. @__@

Laruku’s photobook of their 2007 tour! Okay, the original release date was February 9, 2008 and, well, I saw this both in HMV and TR, so, this could mean that this is a reissued or reprinted release. I DON’T KNOW. @__@ But, at least it’s still available. :D

Comments:
Haven’t found a cover yet. T^T And the price is so haifaluting xD OMG I can’t believe I used that ‘word’. xD Don’t know if I even SPELLED it right, but it doesn’t matter. LOL. Anyway, the DVD is similar to that of Kanjani8’s ‘47′, only, it’s the Okinawa show. Second disc includes a documentary, most likely these are backstage antics or something. Hopefully, I’ll see ken playing ‘Shinshoku ~lose control~’ on the ukelele again. xD

T&T’s first release, aside from the calendar, in 2008! xD Well, honestly, I’ve never watched a T&T concert, so I wouldn’t really know what it’s like. @__@ But I am still excited about the release nonetheless! :D Uhh, I really don’t have much to say. HAHA.
