Now that you’re done vocalizing with Hiroto Saitoh’s catchy Vocalize album that we reviewed last month, it’s time to look into his other music release from Comiket 77. This one is titled Usotsuki to Inugamitsuki Music Collection, and while I’d never heard of the game, the Japanese-styled artwork on the cover immediately caught my attention.
Just as the Japanese title and artwork would suggest, there are a lot of traditional Japanese sounds here.

Given that I knew nothing about this album, I was surprised by what I heard.
