I honestly couldn’t believe it when they announced that “Do as Infinity” was going to reform their band on September of 2008! Seriously, they broke off on September of 2005 so I thought that I would never hear from them again! So here’s a review of one of my favorite singles by the band; Rakuen! (Meaning “Paradise”)

I guess that there’s only one song to review since the fact that there’s only one A-side track on the single. Rakuen was also played as the ending theme for Inuyasha Movie Four. I like how in the beginning, there’s a light instrumental introduction and the during the middle of the song, there was a heavy interlude of electric guitars and Tomiko Van’s aggressive voice. I guess it suits the song.

There’s not really much to say about this rather small single. There’s good song, and no b-sides or other tracks that would effect my impression of the single….except that this one’s definately added to my top favorites! Now I wonder what type of album the group would be recording in the future now that they’re back together.

Personal Rating: 4.5/5
