I dunno what you guys are talking about, sure his vocals are different but I don't think it ruins it. In my opinion they're baddassness is still intact!

His voice is different now because he has lost his original range, therefore is compensating for it by adopting a different vocal style. His Creature Creature-esque vocals possess enough vibrato to kill a moose.

LOL, I laughed when reading that.


But it still doesn't make me like it. I'll just listen to the old Dead End and don't bother listening to the new stuff.

A preview of the new song "dress burning" is up on their official myspace.

METAMORPHOSIS RELEASE TOMORROW
Myspaceのトップページをリニューアルしました。
新しいDEAD ENDの新しいイメージと一緒に。
いよいよ明日、アルバムが発売されます。
「Metamorphosis」がどのくらい拡がるか楽しみです。
そして、Tour 2009 "Metamorphosis"に向けてのリハーサルも
順調です。メンバー・スタッフ一同にこの20年ぶりのDEAD ENDの
ツアーに向けて準備を進めています。コンサートグッズも製作してます。
もうすぐ、新しく変化..を遂げた
DEAD ENDのアルバムをそして、ライブを心待ちにしてくれている
みなさんに会えることを楽しみにしています!

Myspace page has a new look and goes with DEAD END's new image.  Metamorphosis will be released tomorrow.  We hope you pre-ordered it and you will hear it soon.  I am curious how Metamorphosis will expand in the international music market.  The rehearsals are exciting and the  preparation for the Tour 2009 Metamorphosis is going well.  The merchandise is also in progress now.  How will DEAD END's metamorphose?  We will meet you very soon at the venue.

So i guess Dead End are changing their style after all. :(

After all of this, i was so excited for the new album, but i might not buy it now because so far it really is too J-rocky by the sounds of it.What a let down.I know i've only heard 2 tracks but i'm not feeling it to be honest.

This whole thing is becoming very disappointing, and they haven't even released much yet. What a shame.

Yeah.

"Metamorphosis" is a lame theme for a reunion of an old band. Don't change because you wanna be with the "cool vk kids". Please.

Yeah, that really irks me, too.

If you're doing a reunion, chances are you won't be attracting many newbies. You'll probably get people who were fans before the reunion, and I doubt many long-time fans want to see ANYTHING change.

Besides, these changes don't seem to be for anything good. Dead End's music never sounded too old-fashioned to me, I would think it would be fine to play nowadays. (Hah, listen to me. "Nowadays"...)

I'm listening to it right now. Nothing has stood out to me yet, except for Devil Sleep. And not in a good way. Honestly, that song is just... terrible. He sounds like that one Kyo guy.

My thoughts exactly,i think that's the worst song on there, especially that screaming bit at the beginning, just ugh.
I think the song that sounds the most like the old Dead End is Kill Me Baby, well music wise, the vocals are just bad on most of them.

I've listened to the new album for quite a few times now.
It's kinda growing on me O.o Just like Princess. I didn't like it at first [except for the main riff], but not I think it's quite good. Not Perfume of Violence, but hey - IV was not Sadistic Desire either.

As you guys have said, Morrie's vocals put me off quite a bit. It's the moose vibrato [lolled hard for that one, thanx :D]
They can still write damn good riffs, but otherwise the album ain't so good. I didn't expect it to be, since my fav Dead End album is their debut :D

I'm think I'm gonna stick with Dead Line. Btw, just ordered the reissue version of it. \,,/

I was thinking of doing that too... But I already wasted more money than I can afford @D@

And thanX for the little "review", but it still won't make me check out the album. :P
