The general sonority of the band is the common math rock that someone who knows the genre is familiar with, weird time signatures delivered in an energetic and "punk-ish" way, the thing that is different about this band are that they are more oriented to pop-rock/j-pop and I think the compositions tend to be less daring than we normally see in the genre.

As usual of math-rock, the band members are highly skilled in their instruments and play the tracks in a very impressive way. The problem that could be perceived listening to the album is that doesn't take much to starts sound formulaic and "simple", don't get me wrong, as I said everything is played in a very technical way but the compositions don't have the feeling that is trying to innovate, it sounds much common to math-rock and the band is playing in a very "safe-zone".

The songs have vocals in Japanese and are very good, the tracks are sung in a "pop" manner, sometimes the singing goes pretty high and the track receives a very dramatic aspect.

This is a very solid album, none of the songs are bad but most of them are not exceptional, it accomplishes the goal of a debut album that is to establish the band's identity and made me interested in their next works. It could sound too simple for those who like more "avant-garde" things but if you are familiar with math-rock and want something that just sounds cool and will entertain you for the next 48 minutes, I recommend this record. 3 Stars.
