The A-side is of course pretty strong due to it’s rockin’ sound and tie-in to BLEACH. Ranbu no Melody is another strong single from the band showing off their abilities as a band. It’s a good live, but the previous ones were a bit stronger.Ħth single in and it’s making me want an album release from them. I will agree that since this was when SID was known as a V-kei band, the song has that kind of dark sound that most groups have. I really liked how Hosoi Koe sounds in the beginning with the strings and light synths playing around before Mao and Shinji enter the song. In this case it would be their 6th single of the same name. Of course it wouldn’t be a SID single without a live version of one of their indies songs. Hosoi Koe (Live from SID Summer Festa 2010) I pretty much fell in love with this song and it’s classy and something I would’ve never expected SID to pull off.ģ. Unlike “Ranbu no Melody’s” J-rock sound, Danro is actually a jazzy song that’s filled with piano, bass, and light percussion.
Definitely fits the anime easily!įor their B-side, Danro is something I wanted to hear from the band and if there was a time that I felt that a band can just do anything with their music, SID pulled it off in flying colors with Danro. I mean when the title comes out as Wild Melody, I was slightly expecting more of a punch, but what we got isn’t bad at all and I liked Mao’s vocals and Shinji’s solo in the song since that gave it that more wild presence. Of course, when you get a song to have a tie-in into the BLEACH series, you know it’s going to be pretty damn awesome and then mixing it up with SID’s already strong repetoire of songs in this era, Ranbu no Melody is no exception.
