The New Era of HandMC Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
They've got a new vocalist (HALCA), they switched to a new label (Spice Records), and their music became more rock-based, and not to mention that they started using the "F" word in their lyrics. This is the new HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR. This is HandMC gone "indie." Listening to this album I get the feeling that since the departure of Maaki, the band switched to a lower division of Sony Music and become more free-reign on their music. Thus, they get to use curse words in their lyrics and sound more rock...not the usual commercial-type music like the ones that HandMC used to produce. This album is for hardcore HandMC fans and rock genre fans; not suitable for animes like the music they use to make. However, even though you are feeling that they don't sound at that much "HandMC" anymore, there is still a huge percentage in their songs that still sound like their usual music; it's just rockier. I mean, they only lost one person in their band while five other band members remain in the band. The other members are the people who usually writes the band's music in the past. Maaki and Yuusuke was responsible for the lyrics. For us non-Japanese speakers, we usually listen to the melody and the vocal abilities of the vocalists. In this case, although HALCA have a deeper voice, it somehow did suit the music that HandMC is producing right now.

Overall, I am very satisfy with the music on this album. The album packaging, on the other hand, is a different story. I don't know if Spice Records is limited in money resources or it is on purpose, but this album doesn't have a back album art (like usual J-Pop CD singles). Also, the booklet containing the lyrics (yes, the lyrics are in there!) does not contain a single picture of the band. It is just colored pages with lyrics. No pictures. Which was disappointed about because I really want to see HALCA in another picture besides the one and only we saw.

In conclusion, this is worth the buy because of the music. The price of this album is also cheaper than their usual album, too (because of the label company, maybe?).
