【インタビュー】Plastic Tree　美しく浮遊するメロディーに封じられた記憶――新作『アンモナイト』いよいよ到着 
Plastic Tree Ammonite interview.. (still in Japanese though) you could see it here: http://tower.jp/article/interview/76723
here's a little sneak peak of the interview:

[ interview ]

波打つように揺らめくフィードバック・ギターと儚くたゆたう有村竜太朗のヴォーカル――マイ・ブラディ・ヴァレンタイン直系のシューゲイザー・サウンドで幕を開けるPlastic Treeの新作『アンモナイト』。80年代のUKニューウェイヴや90年代のグランジ～オルタナ・シーンをはじめ、メンバー個々の幅広いルーツが効果的に散りばめられた本作からは、どこか仄暗い夜の空気にも似た、ファンタスティックな浮遊感が滲み出している。

2010年末にギラン・バレー症候群という難病を発症した有村の驚異的な回復を経て、いよいよ届けられたこの11作目について、有村と長谷川正（ベース）に話を訊いた。

.

This PV is so cool and I just can't wait for the full album release next month. お楽しみに ♪───Ｏ（≧∇≦）Ｏ────♪

Thirteenth Friday／Plastic Tree PV preview

Just found out in twitter this evening that Plastic Tree (or in this case the Tokuma Japan) already released a PV preview for Plastic Tree new single Thirteenth Friday.. You can check it out above for the PV preview..

well, somehow I love Ryutaro's hairstyle there :) some kind of Sunako Nakahara's style with his hair covering his eyes :)

Really can't wait for the new album release ^^

HBD Ryutaro part 2

just before I was going to sleep, I once online on my tweet again and found out that Kiyoharu is tweeting again.. he said that he got headache in this Sunday.. and he seems like can't sleep again..
after posting pictures of his job and an entry in Glam addiction ameblo and in moonage devilment ameblo , he starts to reply the tweets from his fans again.. but then when he tweets about a Japanese song, (my friend said they are talking about an OST of dorama （セーラーふくときかんじゅう/se-ra- fuku toki kanjyuu)), Ryutaro read it and mention him..


This is their tweets : 
@kiyoharu_sads: だよねぇ、って竜ちゃん誕生日？おめでとうねー！ RT @Pla_ryutaro : あの曲、大好きです。来生たかおさんの曲は名曲多いですよね。 RT @kiyoharu_sads : セーラー服と機関銃、名曲だなぁ。


and then Ryutaro reply it again:
@Pla_ryutaro: はい！誕生日でした。清春さん、ありがとうございます！ RT @kiyoharu_sads : だよねぇ、って竜ちゃん誕生日？おめでとうねー！ RT @Pla_ryutaro : あの曲、大好きです。来生たかおさんの曲は名曲多いですよね。


and also a fans mention something about whether he/she will go to Mito or not but because Pura will also go to Mito (a city in north Kantou) that person thought to just go to Mito. Kiyoharu then replied about how cool it is and Ryutaro added that he was once wanted to go to Mito. (thanks to @kiniro_tsubaki for the translation) 


@Pla_ryutaro: 水戸、ひさびさ行きます！ 楽しみです。RT @kiyoharu_sads : かっこいいよ！ RT @uai20th : @kiyoharu_sads @Pla_ryutaro あ！今度ぷらが水戸に来るようなので、行こうか迷っています～(´ε｀*)


somehow it makes me curious,hahaha..


and there is also an event which called プラスティックトゥリーアルバムリスニングパーティー (Plastic Tree Album Listening Party) today.. I've got a picture about them which posted in twitter this evening..

there is also a review about their FC only live which held on 4 March (but unfortunately it is still in Japanese language) in HERE


okay,that's for now.. oyasuminasai minna and have a nice day!

黒夢 - ミザリー lyrics

Now for everyone who wants to sing Misery but don't understand Japanese,I give you the romaji lyrics of Misery.. Please enjoy..

Kanji Lyrics:

I know blinding days are loving
You don't have to cry for love & hate

I want blinding days & white skin
You trust my destiny, brand new day

盲目の蝶のように忘れ去って　羽根よ舞って
こう言って、さぁ永遠を見るストーリー

ミザリー　驚愕の夢をそっと振り乱して
ミザリー　手を伸ばしたまま

あのkissを歌えるYour lid
ただ再会のベルは鳴って

塗り替えられる昨日と　髪を切った想い
また笑ってくちづけ　ただ永遠願ってる

ミザリー　驚愕の夢をそっと振り乱して
ミザリー　手を伸ばしたまま
ミザリー　今日明日と甘い夢を解き放して
ミザリー　手を繋いだまま

Romaji:

I know blinding days are loving

You don' t have to cry for love& hate

I want blinding days& white skin

You trust my destiny, brand new day

Momoku no chou no you ni wasure satte hane yo matte

Kou itte, saa eien o miru sutoorii

Misery kyougaku no yume o sotto furimidashite

Misery te o nobashita mama

Ano kiss o utaeru Your lid

Tada saikai no beru wa natte

Nurikae rareru kinou to kami o kitta omoi

Mata waratte kuchizuke tada eien negatteru

Misery kyougaku no yume o sotto furimidashite

Misery te o nobashita mama

Misery kyou ashita to amai yume o tokihanashite

Misery te o tsunaida mama
