This is video 17666, 175 will be the next video.

I will never forget Liz Triangle, and lily-an's divine voice. Never. Liz Triangle, with their "White Lotus" album, stole my heart mercilessly and from then on I became a fan of theirs.

I always think that vocals can be a double edged sword, when the vocalist is good and she/he (or even it, in a vocaloids' case) goes in harmony with the rest of the instruments, that's when the power of vocals truly shine. But, on the other hand, if you have somebody with a voice that isn't made for singing, or if the instruments and the vocalist just don't complement each other, the whole song will fail, horribly.

As easy as you may think it is, it's actually pretty hard to find good vocalists. Fortunately, and really fortunately, in Touhou arranges there are a set number of circles that really know how to do their job in vocals, that is what I've tried to demonstrate with the previous uploads, there was even a Yellow Zebra song in there, a circle known for their J-poppish/techno arranges, and IOSYS (there are a lot of others, like SYNC. ART'S, SOUND HOLIC, I won't list them all, but you catch my drift). And now, Liz Triangle.

I have said this in the past, but I think lily-an (Liz Triangle's main vocalist) can really put her emotions into singing, something a lot of vocalists lack, greatly.

With their most recent album, "B1", Liz Triangle has demonstrated that they will keep on producing their lovely classic vocal songs (which is limited to normally a few per album, accompanied by j-rock or poppish/techno stuff). The album contains mostly stage 6/extra stage arranges, from our ever-favorite Border of Life to Necro-fantasy (both technoish) and another of the albums highlights, a gorgeous arrange of Eirin's theme composed "a la" Japanese folk, and lily-an boosting some amazingly enchanting vocals. In the end, they are tracks that have been arranged before, nonetheless, I think it should be a "must check" for everyone.

Btw, yes I know the image is from Alice's Emotion "SCARLET EYES" album, but I still think it's priceless, oh and it's different from the "666" video, in this one it's only Remilia, the other one had half Remi and half Flandre.
And, if I can, I'll try and get the lyrics translated, if of course "kafka fuura" is willing to accept another request from me so soon.

Remiya Scarlet here, thank you very much for watching. But....

What is a man?
