Kuroshitsuji ED2 Full Single - Lacrimosa by Kalafina

Back in January, I reviewed the latest kalafina song (here) which is not Kara no Kyoukai-related (for a change, haha!). Well here's the single with the long version.

Album Review - Everlasting Songs (feat. FictionJunction) by Yuki Kajiura

I've been listening to the new Yuki Kajiura album for a few days now. A week ago, I posted the samples of each track(here). I wanted to write about my impression as soon as I finished listening to all the tracks, but for the reasons mentioned in my previous posts, I couldn't bring myself to it. Technically it isn't really a new album. It's more like a remix album, with rearrangements and new

Samples from Everlasting Songs - FictionJunction Album by Yuki Kajiura

Today is a great day for Yuki Kajiura lovers... Or at least for me, after hearing a sample from each track of the new Yuki Kajiura album entitled Everlasting Songs.

All FictionJunction vocalists will contribute: Yuuka Nanri, Keiko Kubota, Wakana

Yuki Kajiura Live DVD Giveaway: Day 15 - Salva Nos

Song No. 15 is yet another Noir song, and arguably the most famous one: Salva Nos. If you're a true anime music fan like myself, you have probably already heard it. And if not, you have to check it out this instance... The original version is sung by Yuriko Kaida, but another version featured in the Fiction album was sung by Yuri Kasahara. The latter one is the most impressive version in my

Yuki Kajiura Live DVD Giveaway: Day 12 - Godsibb

Song No. 12 from the Yuki Kajiura Live Concert is Godsibb from the video game Xenosaga III. This is actually the first time I'm venturing into non-anime territory, but it isn't that far away, especially since it's a japanese video game. Yuki Kajiura did the soundtracks for both Xenosaga II and III. My personal favorite is the Xenosaga II OST. Nearly all the songs from that soundtrack are amazing!
