While Sadie is on hiatus, two of the members — vocalist Mao and guitarist Mizuki — have gone on to form a new unit named The THIRTEEN. Prior to the unveiling of the members of The THIRTEEN, various visual kei artists like members of the GazettE, had been retweeting the duo’s new unit teaser and countdown, lending Mao and Mizuki a hand in building up the suspense of their new endeavor. The pair is set to release their first full album PANDEMIC on May 25, and perform their first live at Tokyo’s Akasaka BLITZ on June 24.
The THIRTEEN have released two teasers thus far, with a spooky first trailer asking, “What’s the truth “THIRTEEN” indicates?” and a second teaser with a preview of their music video for the album’s main track “CHAINSAW”.
The THIRTEEN also provided us with a promotional version of their music video Lament, taken from their upcoming mini-album of the same name though styled differently, LAMENT (ラメント). The video reaches the four-minute mark despite being a promotional version so this should be long enough to give us a major idea of the full thing.
Lament is characterized by the complete absence of Mao’s harsh vocals. This time around the vocalist opted for the use of his clean voice reaching a pleasant higher tone in the chorus. In the instrumentation, we can also hear acoustic guitar, piano, and violins accompanying Mizuki’s intense guitar playing. Honorable mentions go to support members Kazu from “gibkiy gibkiy gibkiy”, and former AWOI drummer Ryo who also appears in the video playing their respective instruments.
Gremlins is a 1984 American comedy horror film directed by Joe Dante and released by Warner Bros. The film is about a young man who receives a strange creature called a mogwai as a pet, which then spawns other creatures who transform into small, destructive, evil monsters. This story was continued with a sequel, Gremlins 2: The New Batch, released in 1990. Unlike the more satirical tone of the sequel (which parodies Hollywood sequels), Gremlins opts for more black comedy, balanced against a Christmastime setting. Both films were the center of large merchandising campaigns.
Steven Spielberg was the film's executive producer, with the film being produced by Michael Finnell and written by Chris Columbus, drawing on legends of gremlins in the RAF going back to World War II. The film stars Zach Galligan and Phoebe Cates, with Howie Mandel providing the voice of Gizmo, the main mogwai character.
Gremlins was a commercial success and received positive reviews from critics. However, the film was also heavily criticized for some of its more violent sequences. In response to this and to similar complaints about Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Spielberg suggested that the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) alter its rating system, which it did within two months of the film's release, creating a new PG-13 rating.
Randall Peltzer, a struggling inventor, visits a Chinatown antique store in the hope of finding a Christmas present for his son Billy. In the store, Randall encounters a small, furry creature called a mogwai (Cantonese: 魔怪, "devil"). The owner, Mr. Wing, refuses to sell the creature to Randall. However, his grandson secretly sells the mogwai to Randall, warning him to remember three important rules that must never be broken—do not expose the mogwai to bright lights or sunlight which will kill it, do not let it get wet, and never feed it after midnight.
Randall returns home to Kingston Falls where he gives the mogwai to Billy as a pet. Billy works in the local bank, where he fears his dog Barney will be captured and killed by the elderly Mrs. Deagle. Randall names the mogwai “Gizmo” and Billy makes sure to treat him well. When Billy’s friend Pete spills a glass of water over Gizmo, five more mogwai spawn from his back, a more troublemaking sort led by the aggressive Stripe. Billy shows one of the mogwai to his former science teacher, Mr. Hanson, spawning another mogwai, on whom Hanson experiments. Back at home, Stripe’s gang tricks Billy into feeding them after midnight by severing the power cord to his bedside clock. They make cocoons, as does Hanson’s mogwai. Shortly after, the cocoons hatch and they emerge as mischievous, reptilian monsters that torture Gizmo and try to murder Billy’s mother, while Hanson is killed by his 'gremlin'.
Chiyuki Urano (浦野 智行 ) is a Japanese classical baritone and bass who has appeared in concert and recital.
Urano studied at the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music and was awarded prizes at several competitions. He has recorded cantatas and other compositions by Johann Sebastian Bach with the Bach Collegium Japan conducted by Masaaki Suzuki, both as a soloist and a member of the ensemble. With the ensemble, he recorded in 1998 the vox Christi (voice of Christ) in Bach's St John Passion, with Gerd Türk as the Evangelist and Peter Kooy singing the bass roles and arias, in a recording praised by one critic as "the essential version of this work", and by another as "the best I've ever encountered". A year later, he recorded the bass roles and arias in Bach's St Matthew Passion, while Kooy was the vox Christi, and Türk again the Evangelist. He recorded in 2000 with them the bass solos in volume 14 of the complete Bach cantata cycle, in Was soll ich aus dir machen, Ephraim, BWV 89, alongside Midori Suzuki and Robin Blaze. He recorded in 2004 two oratorios by Bach, the Easter Oratorio (Kommt, eilet und laufet), BWV 249, and the Ascension Oratorio (Lobet Gott in seinen Reichen), BWV 11, alongside Yukari Noonoshita, Patrick Van Goethem and Jan Kobow.
Urano recorded with composer and pianist Lera Auerbach a collection of Russian art songs called Tolstoy's Waltz, of works by Russians who are known in different fields than music. Leo Tolstoy composed a waltz in his 20s, while other featured works were composed by the writer Boris Pasternak, the ballet directors Sergei Diaghilev and George Balanchine, the artists Vasily Polenov and Pavel Fedotov, and the diplomat Aleksandr Griboyedov. Urano sings five songs, two by Polenow, two by Fedotov and one by Diaghilev. A review notes that he "has a warm, effortless voice and good Russian pronunciation".
