Intro

Of course, when I’m stuck on what to check out, I know I can count on iTunes on what to purchase. They recommended me Momoiro Clover Z, and I thought that I should check out this EP. I liked their previous releases, so why not this one?

Good

OMG! I thought I loved them before, but I was wrong. With this release, I love them even more! Their lead single feels so uplifting and positive. It’s one of those songs that can instantly put you in a wonderful mood. The song is fun and full of happiness.

The other song that I really loved was “Noruka Soruka”. I felt that this song easily could have been either an opening or closing theme to some kind of anime. “Decoration” definitely is another great follow up song to “The Golden History” while “Hanabi” is a change of pace slower tempo song.

Bad

I really loved this concept for this album. With this concept, I honestly wanted more. Had this been a full LP, the rating would have been even higher. I can definitely listen to this EP over and over.

Overview

I actually got this album and already loved the songs on it. I thought I loved the titled song until I saw the music video which put me in awe on how the video was filmed and the entire concept behind it. It was pure genius. This puts Momo Clover Z into one of my favorite groups not just in JPop idol music, not just JPop, but music overall.

Momoiro Clover Z is one of the groups that puts out consistent good music along with awesome visuals. Each release feels fresh and different. This release was no different. I can always count on MCZ to do a great job overall.

Overall rating: 4/5
