The MV of the latest single from my favorite band just dropped.

Once again I'm thinking about how far they have come since the start. Their musical style has changed quite a bit over the years which may not be everybody's cup of tea but I really like them (the songs and the band 😛) and the new song is no exception.

Sorry for replying so late, I first wanted to get a better impression of their evolution for myself. I think as a general rule, I like their more recent stuff more? Image, Take Me Out, A.M.D.K.J. - the more rock styled songs. I also really like Mirror, as a recent slower song. But among their earlier stuff, Shunkan Sentimental is also great. I also kind of like Scandal Baby, while Shoujo S does nothing for me... it's pretty random. Though I have to say that the blatant pushing of their schoolgirl image in their earlier videos and concerts is a bit off-putting to me. I mean they were basically schoolgirls back then, but still... I prefer the later stuff where they show their individuality.

Hey, no problem. Thank you for your impressions. I'm glad that there are a lot of songs that you like. :)

This is my exact feeling. I like the mature SCANDAL more. And they worked hard to change their image. An example for this is the Koisuru universe MV.
