Lead album promo track Question Time has a video made .
Question might be a weird album title but I suppose the reason why GRANRODEO chose to name their latest album offering as so is because there's no telling what type of music genre you will listen to (a question mark before you listen to each song) which could explain why the whole album is very musically diverse .
The singles that preceded the album's release is already evident of that & so does the limited new number of album material made available .
Album wise I started listening to GRANRODEO since their still excellent 2014 / 6th album Karma to Labyrinth so to me , on 1st listen Question sounds inferior as compared to their past albums especially since Question contains their least number of new songs to date .
Luckily despite the very little number of new material in Question ie. 4 of them , they're all pretty good and I personally really like the Latin influenced Koi wa Hachamecha & the very hard synth driven Give me your eyes (despite the strange song title) .
B-sides wise , I for once don't agree that Jounetsu wa Oboete Iru's Scorn & Kami mo Hotoke mo's BEFORE the DAWN should have been included in Question . Instead Setsuna no Ai's Forte should have been included & I quite like Treasure Pleasure's Ao Iro Sensation .
On whole some might view Question as a step down from GRANRODEO's previous studio albums . I'm sure if they didn't include the 2 B-sides & Tokei Mawari no Torque , this might somehow balance things out & that more new album songs will be included instead .
That said hopefully for GRANRODEO's next 10th album , they wouldn't follow the same structure as what they did for Question .
