Review Kalafina’s Single : Blaze

Assalamu’alaikum... Konnichiwa..!! ^_^

I’m back! Fhewww... it’s been a long time enough since the last post in my blog because of my business *geplaked*. Now I’m back to post about music here. In this post I will post about Kalafina’s new single released on last August, Blaze. I’ve ever posted about Kalafina before but never post about their music review. Yeah, it’s little bit hard for me to give review about music, because I don’t have enough knowledge about music, so I just give the review based on my own taste and opinion about the music. Ok, enough for intermezzo.

In this Blaze single, there are 4 tracks, 2 full songs and 2 instrumentals, and in this post I just write about the full songs, not the instrumental.

Blaze
This is the first song in this single. This Blaze song is used as the ending theme of anime Arslan Senki 2nd Season *I haven’t watched the anime yet*. The rythm of this song is fast enough and the melody is rocky enough, but still matches well with Kalafina’s vocal harmonization. When I listened to this song, I think Hikaru’s vocal is the most powerful. I think Hikaru’s vocal is the best for rock tune or fast paced track songs...
Actually I don’t really like this song, because I think ‘this type of song is not really suitable with Kalafina, this is not Kalafina’s style’. Well, eventhough this song is not ‘so Kalafina’, but the Kajiura-go is still exist in this song.. and I still love their vocal harmonization in this song..

Natsu no Asa
This is the second song in this single. When I listened to this song, I’m so impressed with this song, this is the real Kalafina! Hahahahahaha... XD. I really love this song! Sounds so classical and magical, so beautiful! Sound of flute in this song makes the song sounds so beautiful, and I love Wakana’s vocal, yeah, she’s my favorite in Kalafina... In my opinion, this song has same feeling with song Natsu no Ringo, maybe because os flute sound. Kalafina’s vocal matches very well with this song, but I think Wakana’s vocal is not so soprano and powerful in this song like in their previous songs before, sounds like she has a little problem with her vocal... but her vocal is still beautiful as ususal.. :3
Well, I prefer this song rather than the previous one in this single. Yeah, because I like opera style song rather than pop song.

After listening to the whole single, in my honest opinion, I think Kalafina’s song and style is becoming more like the pop idols than before, but their vocal harmonization is always beautiful. I also think that Kajiura’s music style changes too, not so opera and classic anymore, but I’m glad that there is still opera style in her songs, at least in Kalafina’s albums and singles. Yeah I think Kajiura-san wants her musics can be accepted more by the people... :3


Yeah, that’s my review about this single. As long as I listen to Kalafina’s songs this far, I think, there are always two types of song in their albums or singles, the fast paced ones and classical and serene ones. See you next post! ^___^v
