Looks at the pink post-it placed above her head threateningly saying "I will not make fun out of bands in my reviews" and headdesks herself.

Though trying to compare SuG with anything coherent fails, you can consider them as a kind of cheap, colorful, E-colored, health check certificate-less candy which is anything but good for you yet you still consume it once in a while when your candy-rush goes over your healthy judgment capability.

Unfortunately 39GalaxyZ is (if even possible to believe) this insane Oshare kei's band worst output. 39GalaxyZ parades around with a clowny melody, squeaky electronics, really really bad singing (though that stopped surprising after a few singles) and guitars simply crying for help to get out of this rainbow colored LSD mash. I believe that even kindergarden kids (for whose level Takeru's singing/songwriting is) would find this song over the top.

VAMP VAMP VAMP tries to be all oriental and seducive, but it's melody evokes certain allusions on a certain kind of music I DESPISE so it's a minus from the start. The industrial touches and moody, distorted guitars would have worked really good if this was any other band than SuG. Just no. V.I.P GOBLINZ goes a bit faster, rougher, bringing more overall distortion noise a few background growlz, more of Takeru's squealing and some brainless headbanging/jumping. This probably works somewhat decent on a live performance, but here...

Unfortunately 39GalaxyZ doesn't have a upbeat, crazy, sugary yet somewhat enjoyable song that would make the endurance of the [insert pejorative adjective] songs be worth even a bit of your while. I can only imagine really tolerant listeners and DIEHARD fans listen to this single (questionably enjoying it).

Oh yeah and SuG's drummer Mitsuru will leave the band, which I think is a bit tragicomic because of all of the members, we know who deserves to be kicked out of the band first and banned to do music ever (and I'm not speaking of the drummer).
