it is announced at 翠-Sui- birthday presents live "Unlimited Voice" at Ikebukuro RUIDO K3 at 2014/01/23 that his new band will form in 2014 spring (which will be his last band), although details have not yet been announced

Perfect strategy. Wait for a band from the same city as you to disband, then take their name. BAM instant fans. Maybe they can trick people in by announcing one of their lives as a "secret one day revival" and see how many UCP fans show up.

I have played this game more than I should have, lol. It's one of those "Just one more round and then I go to bed..... oh, hey, are those birds singing outside?"-type of games. XD My favourite victory so far: bribe the city states into submission while conquering all other civilisations, except Alexander (I left Alexander because he has a high tolerance against warmongers and liked me even when I was a ravaging tyrant subjugating the entire world. Plus, he's a cutie.) Then, when it's only me and Alexander left, initiate a UN vote - and win for lack of other candidates. So cynical.

His "voice quality" has gotten better, but I'm not happy with his execution. His style, especially from Division and on wards,is IMO flat, boring, and just weak. He doesn't back his vocals with much substance and nowadays his melodies just drag on and on.

It's a very hilarious reference to a Cyclamen insult turned promotion for their new album.

I get what you mean, however to me they really hit the rock bottom with grief, red soil and that zan remake videos kondoh is actually pretty good when he has budgets to execute his ideas, but i kind of agree that his videos are very formulaic. at the same time, this guy also directed kr cube and obscure, to me those are like the best visual kei videos ever made at all, on par with pierrot's excellent peak videos. isn't rinkaku done by the same team behind agitated screams of maggots?

omg leave his charmingly anaphylactic voice alone I was wondering when those singles would actually get released. They seemed to mention them and then forget they were doing a multi-release campaign |D Yay @ kind of knowing how to be brvtal now. Lol @ rehashing a part of "Hello Katty" again... again. Yuuga is like the Taco Bell of vkei: he uses the same parts of songs he's written but then just mixes them up in different order and BAM that's no longer a 5 layer burrito, that's a baja gordita supreme. Icon.

DIV - 夏の行方 (natsu no yukue) Reason: Not sure what it means or if it's just random, but I simply love the composition. Who knew goldfish and marbles (?) would be a winning combination? Plus, the black background also makes the colors pop intensely. 戸川純 (Jun Togawa) - 玉姫様 (Tamahime sama) Reason: It's mysterious and creepy in a subtle way. I can easily imagine this being a still from an 80s horror movie, like The Fly - or in this case, The Dragonfly. Ehpion - Re:union Reason: Once again, simple, yet stark imagery. It's gorgeous and reminds me of an old Dutch still life painting. the god and death stars - addle apple Reason: So simple, yet so iconic! It definitely makes an impression. I'll never forget this album cover. I think I've learned that I tend to like the following in my album art a. simple b. mysterious c. black backgrounds with bursts of color d. any combination of the above Of the albums that were already posted, I'm also enjoying Boris' and FOLLOW THE WHITE RABBIT's.

Here's two pictures of me. The first one is probably from November 2013 and yes those are prescription glasses not image glasses, I'm pretty much blind without glasses or contacts. The latter is a glorious and amazing bathroom selfie straight outta Instagram from summer 2013. I'm amazed of the tiny amount of "normal pictures" I have of me. In almost all of my pictures there must be either 1. my student overalls, 2. student cap or 3. shitloads of other people in it. And yes, student overalls and student caps (technical universities only) are a huge thing in Finland.

Topic is simple. Show a picture of an album cover you really like (album and artist name would be helpful too!) and briefly explain why you like it. 陰陽座 - 鳳翼麟瞳 Reason: If there was ever a mysterious album cover that conveyed the mysterious, ethereal nature of an album without having to listen to it, Houyoku-Rindou would be that album cover. Also, it has Kuroneko on it and everyone that knows me should know that I fancy myself some Kuroneko. UnsraW - GUILTY Reason: UnsraW always tried to be a band with unsettling visuals, but this is the only album cover of theirs I find remotely unsettling. It's also one of the only album covers I feel like they put effort into. Too bad I can't say the rest about the mini-album. Versailles - Ascendead Master Reason: To me, this is Versailles best attempt at mixing their concept with an album cover. I generally don't like seeing band members on album covers, I think the Holy Grail album cover is very simple and the Versailles album cover bland. JUBILEE is take it or leave it. Plus, it's hand drawn and that's pretty boss.
