4.0 out of 5 stars Much better than most of their recent stuff, February 19, 2005
This review is from: Dictators Circus (Audio CD)
OK... I like Pierrot's indies music... Make that LOVE their indies music... I haven't really liked their newer stuff (like ID ATTACK), but this CD is pretty good. The remixes aren't as good as the originals... Jisatsu no Riyuu and Torikago both lost a lot of feeling vocally in this album, but all of the songs are bearable.... I usually dislike remixes by any band, but Pierrot managed so somehow make it work for them... I would recommend the original CDs first (especially Pandora no Hako), but definitely try this CD/DVD set. If you want to be taken back to when Pierrot still had their own sound, get this. It's a bit (ok very) expensive for a CD, but it's worth it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Collection of Indies Pierrot, July 17, 2010
This review is from: Dictators Circus (Audio CD)
Pierrot was a Japanese Visual-Kei band consisting of Kirito and Jun on guitars, Kohta on bass, Takeo as drummer, and Hidelow as the primary vocalist. The band was formed in 1994, and was one of the longest running Visual-Kei acts in Japan by the time they called it quits for good in 2006. This release, the 'Dictators Circus - Kijutsuteki Senritsu' is a compilation album released 12.17.2003 on the Universal Records label that includes several remastered versions of their indies era material. The necessity of remastering their older work is questionable (in a lot of ways I prefer the originals) but it's still a great set and a good way to get an overview of their indies work without tracking down the individual albums.

Track listing:

1. Jisatsu no riyuu
2. Adolf
3. Nounai morphine
4. Screen 1 torikago
5. Dracula
6. Oni to sakura
7. Aoi sora no shita
8. Sepia
9. Mangetsu ni terasareta saigo no kotoba
10. Human Gate

There was a limited edition Japanese pressing that includes an 11th bonus track entitled 'Toumei yue ningen nari', as well as a DVD containing recording session footage.

All told a very strong collection and well worth the pickup.
