Visual kei band known as “D” have been around since 2003 but after five years of being an indie band, the band was signed to major label avex trax in 2008. The band which consists of vocalist ASAGI, guitarist Ruiza and Hide-Zou, bass guitarist Tsunehito and drummer HIROKI have been capturing the attention of rock fans through their single “Yami no Kuni no Alice” used for the film “Twilight Syndrome: Dead-go-round” and “Hamon” being used for the theme of the Nintenodo DS video game “Twilight Syndrome”.
In December 2009, D released their fifth major label single titled “Day by Day”, a song which would become a theme song for the dating simulation mobile phone game “Love Summit”. Overall, both vocal tracks from this single are awesome. Great musical arrangement, awesome guitars and both are upbeat tracks especially the coupling track “妖奇蚔 which is a more darker track, heavy hitting track with deep churning guitars. Both tracks are different in style but are awesome.
As for the DVD, the DVD features each band member jamming with their instruments and ASAGI singing the song in an empty room or typing the lyrics of the song on his MacBook Pro.  CD insert features lyrics and production credits but also comes with a collectible card featuring an image of a member of the band and the rear of the card featuring an image from “Love Summit”.
Overall, a wonderful CD single from D and both vocal tracks are definitely recommended if purchasing via digital.
