As someone who got to see them last year when they came to the U.S. I am a little disappointed that the track list is so short. They have more songs than that they have translated into English, as they performed them at those concerts. I would have loved to have the English version of Brotherhood for instance.

They actually performed such songs as Splash!, Brotherhood, Samayoeru Aoi Dangan and juice in English during they US tour last year. They also performed Ultra Soul in English on their concert with Linkin Park. And English version of Splash! was played during whole Japanese tour ^^

About the Brotherhood I also thought it would be there... I am not against short tracklist, because it encourages people who don't know them to give them a try without any harsh, it's better than 20 tracks and people thinking "what if I'm wasting my time/money"
