    And now I need a kind soul who can tell me what the lyrics of NEO STARGATE are about. ;-)


    I was just wondering that myself. Do the words explain the masks at all????

    Visually, Neo STARGATE is unique, but I have no idea what's going on. A YouTube comment said 5th Dimension is a concept album...so will the story continue in other songs? Looking forward to more videos featuring kwkm's hair.

    Musically, with Momoclo's recent singles being guitar-driven, I was not expecting the techno sound. The choir is nice; it adds a rock opera feel similar to Mugen no Ai. The song never really kicks into high gear though. I'll need to listen a few more times to really get the feel of it.

    I didn't mind the song until the chorus. It's just so... tame.

    They rest after the exertion of the Kouhaku. The Professor wakes them for the next mission, which is love. "Now the plan is obvious!"

    I think they set out from earth into space, possibly even the future, and are now coming back to save mankind. We are driven to evolve and have sinned to do so. Pandora's box is open, so there is no choice but to acknowledge that we can/must change destiny. They are pure and will make us connect with each other. If we break the old patterns of destruction we can still make it, and be born again. Open your soul, break free, and walk together, through the star gate!

    I may regret this quick summary once the other songs make things clearer ^^;

    songs like these are reason why I love momoclo. pretty baller.

    I can see neo stargate being used as a set-list frontliner. it just has that vibe that gets you pumped, but doesnt really, it just warms you up kinda feel.

    itunes version has no kwkm voice, but has long opera like intro, maybe a minute before the song started.

    Hah, the first thing I thought watching that video was it should be used for The Harlem Shake, instead of The Harlem Shake.

    dubstep has really actually invaded every corner of music now.

    anyone has posted the lyric?

    I spent too much time on this, someone else can do the color tags:

    Spoiler:
    If you close your eyes, you can hear something
    it is the silent whispers.
    "Have no fear and wake up"
    that is the thought that forms.
    The existential drive to advance,
    an unknown part of yourself,
    tell you the time to cross dimensions has come.

    Anyone who traveled the stars
    and came to the small blue planet
    was looking for this.
    Thus we are flying.
    Open the door that slumbers deep in your soul!

    *Praying, just wanting to shine
    the moon advances
    on the galaxy's spiral of time
    to soon be born again.*

    The new dawn
    was not prophesied.
    When we hurt
    why from the future we made?
    Struggling in the darkness of decline
    defeat your programming!
    The creation of new consciousness,
    intensify and take off!

    **Rise and shine
    Release all ties
    Kick your doubts
    The time has come

    Get sharp
    Chisel at yourself
    Right now you can still make it
    and shift the old paradigm

    The axis of time
    is an eternity of now.
    The code word is Ai.
    An unknown path,
    climb the dimensions!**

    The ever repeated
    war and suffering, all
    are evils committed by man.
    Except for the plagues,
    the lessons from the stars.

    But we already have
    purified our consciousness
    and can walk on
    hand in hand.

    Pandora's box is open
    and can never be closed again, so
    man has to recognize
    that we are all one.
    Light is always stronger than darkness.
    There is no stronger force than Ai.

    Oh
    further
    go on
    advance

    *repeat*

    **repeat**

    If it's your deepest wish
    and you let it out
    it won't be a miracle
    for the door to open.
    Let us go together
    through the great
    star gate!

    This is more drum n bass than dubstep. People are very quick to label any piece of music with a bassline dubstep now --- plus this song actually works it into the timbre of the composition - it's natural, it fits, unlike many other examples.

    Thanks for translation^

    Neo STARGATE is up to #2 on the Japanese iTunes single chart. Not sure if it's going to be able to surpass Kyary Pamyu Pamyu though, who also released a new single the same day and is holding strong at #1...

    EDIT: Down to #3.

    There's no credible guitar cover until this guy does one :
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfTDCwUpgPI

    I still can't believe they had the audacity to dare taking the drum n'bass/dubstep path. It's pretty hardcore when your fanbase is made of idols wotas. Yet it fits perfectly into a very coherent song. Osumi rocks.
