“As metal as one can get in heels and pink bows” – Kotaku

The quote comes from the gaming blog site and describes Aldious as they release their first overseas album Radiant A. It has been around for a couple of years on the Japanese market, but prices have been high. Now you can get it through JPU Records or Amazon here in UK. It arrived today having been released yesterday so will join the earlier material I have that has made its way here from JapanCD. The great advantage of being able to order nationally is that I will avoid the £8.00 handling charge that Royal Mail hits me with each time a CD arrives from Japan and there is VAT to pay.

It would have been great if the quote referred to Metallica or Slipknot, but I think they never went through a heels and bows phase.

Over the years I have added to my collection through the World Music Network, subscribing annually and picking up a selection of albums over the year. Two years ago I mistakenly selected digital download as my choice of delivery and went for a couple of months wondering why my selection had failed to arrive. On querying they sent a patient reply explaining my situation. So having paid for hard albums I forgot all about it, so imagine my joy last night when I discovered half a dozen albums that were still waiting to be downloaded! I noticed that I still had a good number of selections available and they still work. So ten downloaded albums and Radiant A will give me plenty of listening for this week.

By the way the girls in heels and bows are rocking!
