Er, there are no bonus tracks here... was this also a special promo item at Otakon?
Anyway, "Shackles of Night" was not at all what I was expecting it to be, but it's grown on me quite a bit. I prefer the "vocaloid" version, which features a modified, auto-tuned vocal by "Miku Hatsune". I can't really stand the original version sung by Shihori. Is it bad that a 'robot' can sing better than she can? Also, "Antique Doll" was NOT composed by Kikuta, but Shihori. I've made this change. Last edited by Jormungand; Sep 27, 2010 at 02:13 PM. |

So if you had to compare it with the other albums by Kikuta, which one has a similar style?

Hmm. "Shackles" is prog-rock, but all synthesized. Sound quality and instruments are similar to what we hear on the "The Mysterious Island of Souls" episodes from Lost Files and Alphabet Planet.
As for the composition itself, it's exactly what you'd expect of Kikuta prog-rock. It's more like Mysterious Island of Souls and Soukaigi than anything, but not as colorfully arranged, not as harmonically or melodically complex, and just simpler in general.

Maybe I will delete this tracklist (those TBA tracks would have been canceled, after all). The catalog number also may not be SoN10. |

OK. My copy is the CIAP-1002 one. I'm not too pleased those bonus tracks were canceled... they were advertised as "Hiroki Kikuta x Hiroaki Yura" collaborations, which would've meant Kikuta works that were performed live!
