_ Sadly nothing new yet for SIVA, E'm ~grief~, or Heisei Isshin, but keep an eye out!
② Arc and Dali will be participating in a new Omnibus album sponsored by Barks.jp! The Album is called BARKS Visual Bloom, and it will be available in select stores on 7/18, and on the iTunes Store on 7/23! For those who buy it in stores, you'll get a special sticker sheet! Brand X and ZEAL LINK will also be distributing a special DVD if you purchase from there... sounds like something to get your hands on if you are an Arc or Dali fan! The bands will be contributing the follow tracks:

I remember hearing the full version in the background while I was at tv.banz.jp... the chorus (which is in the soundbite) isn't too impressive, but the song itself was actually okay. Doesn't really help them out though. Or maybe I heard Lily? Bleh Dx
Though for a bunch of kids who just got out of highschool (ie Kei, Ren) it's not bad. Better than what 18-19 year olds here in the US can pull off :P
And yes, Zodia is kicking some serious toosh. They're the new sex-machines of UCP :B
I was surprised by Arc a little bit too... they, and I cannot believe I'm saying this, weren't half bad.

Zodia sounds really good! I hope I actually get to hear a full release soon.
brodiaea is disappointing from the sample. Hopefully the actual release will be better?
