Love Game and Plastic Smile Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
Perfume’s second CD “Game” continues their previous wall of disco synth, cute vocal harmonics and computer ‘game’ sound, with some added electro calypso beats and synth rock. Certainly excellent songs here especially the electro catchy “Plastic Smile”, the synth-rock “Game”, and the calypso bass laden groove of “Butterfly”. Songs are written and arranged by Yasutaka Nakata of Capsule, so you can be assured of some cool electro synth pop here. “Polyrhythm” opens with funky but familiar Perfume melody, but “Game” really comes to life with track 2’s “Plastic Smile”. A highly rhythmic, catchy and super hook ‘single’ with a beautiful refrain that will stay in your head for weeks. Its classic Perfume for fans that will want to play to friends to get them grooving and converted. “Game” though really rocks (air guitar stuff this) and gives the ‘wow’ factor and appreciation in buying the album! It’s more industrial electro likened to “Electro World” with similar riveting synth rock beat and much heavier groove. With opening industrial electro rhythm, pulsating indie steel guitar, bursting in at 0:29 with a fantastic heavy synth melody and great vocal refrain this that just blows you away. Listen to this on a headphone set and on-line gaming world and you’ll be in synthetic ‘game’ heaven. Settling down with “Baby Cruising Love” this more moderate beat cruises along to a bright fuzzy synth beat and a cute vocal melody.

“Chocolate Disco” is quick paced with a cute child like melody and a lovely fun disco refrain with repeated titled vocal. T6 is slower with a bright vocal refrain and moderate rhythm beat. T7 cranks up the BPM with a nice electro stomper rhythm. Its quick paced and brought to mind the sounds of 80s synth makers Buggles and Landscape by the swift disco rhythm. “Take Me Take Me” features lovely 60’s type vocal refrain with a 1-2-1 disco keyboard rhythm and synthetic acoustic guitar sound. T9 as quite a spacey upbeat melody with more bright vocals from the girls. “Butterfly” although a delicate title, surprises here with a great calypso bass heavy synth rhythm and a sure fire dance song. T11 is familiar Perfume with a highly charged disco beat and finally “Puppy Love” is a bit of synth rock with a Japanese traditional melody amidst the Perfume sound.

“Game” continues Perfume’s previous cute harmonic vocals and sound with some great tracks and no doubt a cracking album! If you like Perfume also try J-pop electro band Capsule.

Nice quality Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I previously reviewed the CD+DVD version of this album, but I ended up buying this version since the other version was sold out. I'm really happy with the photobook quality. It's on GLOSSY HQ photopaper and the girls have some REALLY nice shots.

I love all the songs on this album and really recommend this album instead of their latest Triangle album if you are a new fan. This CD will make you see Macaroni in an entirely different light and make you want to dance while eating chocolate! I love how unique this album is and I'm happy I finally bought it.

(For more reviews of the music, look at my review of the CD+DVD version).

Very sad that this is out of print T_T Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I kept seeing Tohoshinki run into Perfume on different music shows in japan and was debating whether or not to try this group out. Now, I'm just sorry that I waited so long to try out this group and now this is out of print! ^^

Perfume makes some amazing techno music. Polyrhythm (Track 1) is now my very favorite techno song and my favorite single by this group. Watching them perform this is very fan... Perfume carries a certain charm with them even though they're so young (only about a year older than me ^^) and to think they've been out since 2003... O_O

If anything, I'll buy the regular version of this album or the Polyrhythm single. ^^ I also plan on buying their Budokan performance, but I hope that comes out in different regional versions (I need Region 3, so I'm hoping there will be a Korean or Hong Kong Version... T_T)

Give techno a spin with a little Perfume! ^^
