Due 'le quartz is definately a band to watch in the future! This group combines elements of pure glam metal with punk and the result is just amazing! I recommend it highly!
And because the Amazon.com doesn't list all the tracks, I'll list them for you:
1. utakata no...yume?
2. Monochrome
3. Manji Garame
4. Shigatsu Tsuitachi Kabatake Ni
5. Jisatsu Ganbou
6. and then there's a live version Jisatsu Ganbou but that's supposed to be a secret.

Definitely a band to watch in the world of Japanese Visual Rock. This indies band is set to go major any day and when they do they're sure to make an impact. Very much recommended to any fan of J-Rock and Visual Kei. If you like Dir en grey, try Due le Quartz. I don't think you'll be disapointed.

Due'le Quartz was quite simply an amazing band. Had they not broken up (like so many of the great earlier Visual Kei bands) they'd definitely be holding a top position in the scene today. People would be saying "Dir en who?", "L'arc en what?" ...well maybe not but still DLQ would be a major player in the world of J-Rock. Sadly this CD is their one of their last. After the break-up guitarist Miyavi went on to bigger success as a solo act however none of the work done by ex-members of this band since leaving DLQ can compare to the result of their combined efforts during their all too short time together. I highly recommend picking up as much Due'le Quartz material as possible, especially their Promotional Videos (PVs). They were an exceptional band (even if their singer went off key in a few songs... yeah that's right I admitted it, he went off key. Funny thing is, it still sounds great).

Despite their recent break up (well, impending break up.. they'll be holding one last Live at Shibuya a/x in Japan).. Due is an awesome band. Sakito may have some odd vocals at times, BUT.. the music is awesome, the lyrics are good.. and their new CD (Rodeo) shows improvement on the band. Unfortunately, no new CDs will be coming out.. you should definately check this out if you like Visual Kei or J-music in general..
