It's not my intention to suddenly start to post every video I find but this one posted on SOTW got the better of my curiosity.
Although I find it superb with a very Japanese precision, it doesn't stir me up to any where near the level Wilton & co are capable of doing.
Regardless of his split tones, growls and altissimo it still some how feels sanitised and polite.
Even when he turns on the magic 3.5 minutes + into the track.
Don't get me wrong it is superb I love it and its not an option to stop before the video ends but......
I find it very easy to conjure images of of the best performing things to come out of Japan when I listen to this...
Say a Yamaha R1 sports bike for example, a faultless slick, reliable, exhilarating rocket.
Yet a noisier, less reliable (allegedly your honour!) ducati turns the heads and steals the soul.
Is it just me?
