M-H will disband at 2021/01/01 due to losing confidence of visual kei since the same date, and their alter-ego band "JROCK ONE" will commence activities they will still search for visual-kei news in the future but will not post anywhere in the near future PS1: M-H people are talented enough to find news, and thus visual kei no longer needs them anymore PS2: that mod, psychonnect_rozen, and vk stan twitter/reddit/facebook groups should be happy for this news PS3: hope that this thread will not be deleted or edited by that mod, who is not willing to delete other threads upon his request --- Sorry I wrote a fucking novel ;V

Haha, yeah, that was quite a wild ride. Also when it turned out that Kisaki was an abuser and pedo… thanks to MH I lost all the respect I had left for him, lol. ––––– RIP Mh. Took me a while to write something… I know I didn't post much at the end, because I took a break from the internet and especially social media. I don't know if people really recognize me, since I am here only sporadically, despite being signed since a long time. I admit, I like lurking more than actually talking to other people. I still took part in some discussions and being the weird introvert that I am, I usually regretted voicing my stupid opinions afterwards. In the end I didn't delete any posts though, because I feel that's part of forum culture, owning up to the bullshit you say, even if it's cringe and letting it stay on the internet. Some disputes and lovely banter here was funny though and it fills me with a strange fuzzy feeling to know that i have been part of some fandom drama. It's like being part of an old folk tale, you know? Now I wonder how much of the drama will be even remembered in 10 years… Honestly, a year ago or so I believed MH would stay for much longer, since the forum managed to outlive most other de-centralized communities and websites. Seems I was wrong and it comes to an end sooner than I thought. I know there's a new community on discourse, but I have to admit, I don't like social media sites and centralized web hubs and places. I think discourse is a better alternative than having nothing, but MH's UI was miles better. MH also feels so much more personal… I cannot explain it. I just don't really feel the same thing when I go online on sites like reddit, facebook, etc. Everything's quite dull and surface level, particularly on FB. VK fandom communities on other sites are also rather meh… Anyway, before I start writing bullshit, I just want to thank all the people who kept the site alive for more than a decade. I discovered a lot of great bands and music here, some of the discussions were entertaining to read. Hope you are all doing fine, despite the train wreck of a year we had.

It's really touching to get notifications for being mentioned here. I'll definitely keep a lot of hilarious memories from this place as well. If I had to pick one, that one time we all joined forces and exposed Kisaki over his fake band history was definitely a peak. Whether we interacted or not, I hope everyone gets to live their best life beyond this forum. Have a good graduation and departure™ my dear monochrome citizens. Take care and stay healthy.

Ey my nigga. J yet because MH is closing, don’t think I ain’t forget about you giving me a warning because of “white supremacy” @CAT5 I will always laugh at this. But Ive had the pleasure of talking to a lot of you guys over the years. Some of which I’ve reconnected with since Fukkatsu such as @WhirlingBlackand @EzraEroguro. I remember talking to @Biopanda , Val, and some other folk in the Skype chat till the wee hours of the morning. I remember having the biggest crush on @allisapp for awhile. Meeting @Zeus’s soft spoken and cool ass last year will always be one of my highlights. I remember cracking up at @Jigsaw9’s puns. Man so many memories to bring up...and I’m starting to tear up. Even the not so great times here I’ll cherish to en extent. @blackdoll you are a trip. But passionate. @nekkichi, even after the back and fourth me and you have had, I’ve come to warm up to your persona. @LestatI apologize for lashing out at you the way I did back in the day. You were cool to chat with on regular basis. And I hope you’re well. Rest of you, I enjoyed the convos and and music we’ve shared! I’ve become more privy to hella bands and stuck around this scene much longer than I intended to because of this place. I can’t wait to eventually chat with you guys more in our new home! Mods/admins: Thanks for holding shit down! I’ve watched Batsu and Fukkatsu fold into itself due to lack of proper leadership. Things weren’t always perfect here either but y’all put your best foot forward when it was time to and shit got better. It’s sad that MH is ending but this is honestly the best way it could go out. A lot of that is due to you guys. Idk how many of y’all are transferring over but just in case some of y’all don’t, your services were greatly appreciated!

last message...✝ I want to thank all of you who have made this place home for me. From being a banned shitposter to a moderator is a big step to take with a lot of challenges on the road. My experiences here have changed my life and I am so grateful to every one of you. Who knew that a Japanese rock forum could bring so many wonderful people together? To all my friends here, you know where to find me. thank you all for everything ♥ suji

Made this topic so we could share our social media in one spot. You can find me on Instagram @saracura__ or discord platymelon#1731

As we approach the end I wanted to thank everyone for their contributions in the past. My 8years here have been amazing. Good luck and bravery to yall and see you on the other side

You need to add your four numbers as well for the discord name!

@VkBrutaliaNWe wait for you in jrockone Your contributions are very important for fans

one time at sakuracon i walked into a back room and i saw the entire mh staff team peeing on each other.

I will miss MH tbh

235 fucking pages of some of the cringiest arguments the internet has ever seen. I'm glad to have been apart of it.

The MH plug.dj sessions deserve a shout out. I remember in the early days we'd get a lot of people in those. Fun times.

This breaks my heart and I didn't know about it until now. If you wanna keep in touch with me or see me write stupid shit; follow me @nameinbiography at Twitter. I'm gonna miss the last 14 years we had together. I answer dms and questions, I'm not mean or intimidating. Hope to see some of you guys, if not, then this is my last goodbye to you. Love you all and take care. You've all been such wonderful people over the years.

When it comes to social media, I don't post or share on a consistent basis, but if you'd like to stay in touch, these would be your best bet. Feel free to add/follow: https://www.facebook.com/wesloggins/ https://twitter.com/ongakunek0

cali≠gari will release a new CD titled "15予告版" (15 yokoku-ban) early next year. The oneman gig commemorating the release will be held on 2021/02/11 so there's a good chance that the CD comes out around that time (no further details are known yet). Judging from the title it's safe to assume that it will be a single preceding a future album. The band also announced a tour titled "Tour 15" that will last from 2021/03/06 till 2021/06/28. This makes me think that the potential album that will follow the "15予告版" CD might be released around that timeframe, but the guys haven't talked of an album yet, so we shall see...

I thank you all for making the 5 years I've been around this place much more colorful than they otherwise would've been.

Last Call and farewell... Again in case anyone wants to stay in touch you can do so via twitter @VkBrutaliaN since i have no means on joining any new forum anytime soon. Of course that could change over time but for now that's how i feel. MH was the only forum i ever joined and it definitely was a fun and very intersting experience throughout all the years. Now that everything comes to an end i kinda wish i would've been more active here although i guess i was active enough... XD Anyways as this is officially my last post here, thanks to everyone which made my time here a fun stay and hopefully anyone else will continue to to spread some more LOVE for Brutal系 elsewhere like i tried my best to do here. ;D

Here's some gems I found from my old Photobucket. These have to be at least 10 years old. I reup'd on imgur because Photobucket sucks now. Im too lazy to post east image individually so here's an album I made. https://imgur.com/a/qSVr9Px

Oh, I miss Lestat. Was cool to see someone else in the world who both liked VK and unironically enjoyed the band Tigertailz. She had a lovely writing style as well. I've always been a fairly casual poster, but I've had a lot of fun browsing around this forum over the years. I love watching the development of threads about new bands, in particular. Watching people try to guess whether they'll be good or flop from only a photo and a 30-second teaser, or watching the hype slowly build or die over the weeks always makes it fun to visit the news section. That story about Kawaii_Minpha discreetly farting to try to get a masturbating neighbour to go away was also one of the strangest things I've ever seen on a forum. Lol, even if that person was just trolling, that's a mental image that has really stuck with me. 😂

On MH Farewell event I'll be looking forward to add a lot of Gargoyle's party'ish upbeat and bouncy songs. Who else likes that idea?

As much as I don't really remember how exactly I discovered MH, I've been having a really good time since I joined here back in 2011, when I was 19. My best memories, aside from discussing about music were: - making a lot of threads about Japanese heavy metal - a lot of awesome conversation with users I don't see around, especially Chianti, Ronluna and Chibicco San. If you guys are still somewhere around, under a different name or not, I hope you're doing well - spectaculating a lot about Diru's "Dum Spiro Spero" (MOO meme anyone? 🤣 ) and Maximum the Hormone's "Yoshuu Fukushuu" I only feel bad, because between 2014-2018 I've kinda abandoned and even forgot about MH, I don't know why 😢 But coming back here was such a great feeling! Thank you fellow MHers once again, and let's keep the community alive at J-Rock One!

I forgot I had this saved and it still applies

So Ao held a poll on twitter for his followers to choose between "ただいま。" and "ママが僕をすててパパが僕をおかした日" to remake and distribute for free to all attendees of the 11th Feb 2021 gig and "ママが僕をすててパパが僕をおかした日" won by an overwhelmingly huge margin.

The last new member MH will ever have... Thanks for swinging on by in the last few days we have left, enjoy them with us ✌️

Well you're the last. Its the greatest honor a lurker can achieve.

I would just like to say "Azaeroe" and leave it at that for a laugh, but there's more I wanna say. I was here for just over two years and they were a wonderful two years. Until my WiFi mishaps, I actually managed to log in every single day! Usually when I join a new site I get bored of it quickly but not here. I spoke to some awesome people (and some not so awesome, but they made me laugh), learnt a lot and got many new interests. I'm on my phone outside a closed shop that fsr still has its WiFi going and my hands are cold so I'll keep this short and sweet but it really was an amazing experience being here. Thank you all! ❤️

- April Fool's News Threads - Reading people's reactions when BABOO crashed into the scene with some bonafide baby-diaper-ageplay-kei goodness which they've now removed from youtube (crying), but you can remind yourself by checking out 3:05 here - A certain Italian Lady sharing her ghost stories and j-rocker related dreams - The never-ending search for Maria Cross' movies and kisaki nudes I haven't met as many people as some of the European folks, one time @WhirlingBlack and I *almost* went for drinks, I hope I can go to your club some day. I had the pleasure of hanging out with @monkeybanana4 at a couple of concerts and watching a hilarious shitty movie with @ghost I've made some really good memories here and hope to continue having laughs with some of you. I can't wait for teenage intellectuals and spiritual gurus to keep targeting whichever platforms we move onto 🙏

"15 予告版" will be released at 2021/02/10 (2 types) Limited edition (3080yen) will include 2CD Regular edition (2750yen) will include 1CD

I find it very entertaining that Kyo and I have the same height but he's a ripped short king so he could probably punch the head right off my shoulders. A lot of the Kusomen seem like crafty fighters so I dunno if I wanna risk losing a limb or smth just to try and teach 'em a lesson. I will however take on Keiosu from GLAMSCURE, I bet I could break his tooth pick arms in half, punch that smug look right off his face, tackle his spleen into smithereens, and get a lil' revenge for Kyouka. Also, I'd wanna fight Gackt's ratcheted ass but he's so plastic that if you cut him, he doesn't bleed, his skin just parts like a wax dummy. I think you have to throw him into a fire pit or leave him out in the hot sun in order to win.

Adding this on the "reasons to keeping living" list, thanks homie 👍

I understand what you're saying essentially. I used to not really hear it, but nowadays there are a lot of vocalists I can only enjoy when I'm "in the mood". Check out early Janne Da Arc and Rentrer en Soi. After like 12 years of listening to visual kei, Yasu and Satsuki have consistently stuck out to me as some of the best vocalists, and tend to avoid a bit of the excessive vibrato and pitch slurring that a lot of other talented vk vocalists tend to embellish their singing with
