Love or Hate?

If you want, you can use the translation:

Birth of a New Day

However, it's not really meant to be viewed in that manner.
Most likely the album isn't even made by someone from Japan, it's just a part of the a e s t h e t i c.

Nope. Doesn't look the least bit familiar, and I feel I'd remember that.

Yeah but if I'm searching it's a pain to be looking for these ****ing weird characters. Does Spotify recognise it? Okay it does. But I'm going to ask you to keep these albums with weird characters to a minimum. It's too much ****ing hassle. I mean, look at all the crap I have to go through for track listings. Nah, **** it: I'm not doing that. Rec me something in English. That's just annoying and I'll go into it with a bad attitude from the start.

That's absurd, pedantic and excludes albums for reasons not even based on the content of said albums nor upon practical concerns like length. Supposing you know how to ctrl+v, there is absolutely, positively, unequivocally and objectively no hassle added to your job. Furthermore, although this isn't necessarily the case for vaporware, it excludes albums because of nationality and language, which imo is pretty ****ty.

Edit: Also 2814 - 新しい日の誕生 is really ****ing good, so there's that.

But Attahk... Not their best or most representative. Or did you choose it because it's a tad more conventional and also more varied and short?

Do you usually write the track listings by hand? You know that you can just copy them from discogs or RYM, right? If anything is a hassle here, not copying them is.

I do write the track listings by hand, yes.

However I must apologise. I was in a really bad mood last night and that just got to me, and I responded in a pretty inappropriate way. Sorry; I just had a lot on my mind and it seemed like people were trying to get to me. Stupid I know.

I'll add the album.

But yes, as I say, I do write the listings, as they need to be colour coded and fit into my system that way. The trouble with copying them is you get all that extraneous info, like track lengths, who wrote it etc, which I don't use and would then have to cut out, so it's actually quicker for me to just write them in by hand.

Since I'm extremely meticulous when tagging my music and often have to copy track titles from discogs into a *.txt file, I know what you mean.
But it's mostly still much faster. Just select the tracklist from discogs and copy it into the text editor. Oftentimes the main page for an album doesn't even have the track numbers. To remove the track lengths, just double click on them to select them, press backspace to remove and press backspace once more to remove the blanks. Done.
In case of this japanesy album you'd be done in about 2 seconds.
Not trying to criticize your style, just a tip from one OCD sufferer to another.
