    Did you guys know, that Shimizuya Records started removing unofficial Lycaon videos from Youtube just last week? That was the last straw for me. They got tons of my and @kyoselflove's videos removed. FUCKING HALF A YEAR AFTER THEY DISBANDED. Fuck you, Shimizuya Records.

    [BAND BATTLE] THE BLACK SWAN vs DOAK

    THE BLACK SWAN managed to craft a progressive clusterfuck of a MACABRE clone even if the rest of their music is nauseating. We know what we're getting with Jin as a vocalist and even though tonally he leaves much to be desired as a vocalist he runs circles around Yuuki. For one, he can harmonize. DOAK sounds like absolute garbage with no hope for redemption. I don't know how people can listen to DOAK unironically and still profess to love music. They're tied with Ha;qch. and I.T.G for most overhyped pile of drivel to hit the scene post-2010 and if Yuuki / Satoshi wasn't involved they would be another no-name no1curr band that people would only masturbate over in retrospect. I'll stick with my ugly swans.

    I was just watching UnsraW's PV for "-9-" an hour ago and I realized something. Any fucker with a decent voice can be a vocalist... but it takes a special kind of crazy to be a good frontman and Yuuki perfectly demonstrated this. His charisma is a great example of what's needed to really make people pay attention. I adore vocalists with passion in their stage presence. (I realize I just went full fangirl, pardon me)

    [BAND BATTLE] THE BLACK SWAN vs DOAK

    While I agree that their production quality isn't the best, they sound cool. Yuuki just needs to improve on vocals and they need a better sound producer. I literally don't understand why they don't have this whilst they are on Speed Disk and how high def their pv looked. Like cmon. Admittedly I hated DOAK and their sound, aswell as Yuuki's vocals and that disgusting autotune shit from the first single. Not to mention the vocals sound so out of place with these D.I.D. esque compositions, satoshi and yuuki go together like oil and water tbh. Oddly enough though Hakuri and Ito sound pretty alright, while Inside Fear sounds like a song that didn't make it on Providentia, i still want to hear it. As for THE BLACK SWAN, Jin's voice is nasally but it fits aswell as the compositions, but then again he has Makoto of ex-Reviver and Itsuki of ex-Origami. He and Yuuki fit that category of Unique voiced vkei vocalists but going off of basics, Jin just can hold a key better than Yuuki, his voice is a lot smoother. Yuuki does have his sweet spots though, he can harmonize aswell..but it feels like he really doesn't spend time refining his voice. But that was back in Unsraw..I feel Yuuki should take a bit more time to focus on those Sweet spots.

    The Upcoming Video Game Discussion Topic

    I didn't want to post a pic because I was at work and it's veering into NSFW territory. But here are the front covers of the game's 2 versions. Google the game's name, you will get a lot of big boob screenshots. In the past I had some interest in trying a Senran Kagura game, until I saw how big the boobs were. And to use another recent example, Nights of Azure seemed interesting until I saw the boobage.

    #73: Charisma.com - 愛泥C

    Tracklist: 1 サプリミナル・ダイエット 2 骨抜きに恋して 3 腰掛けラップ 4 PH4 5 GODcustomer 6 等身大グレー 7 ベルサッサ 8 自撮ール | Slowly losing charisma, but still a fun release. Pop gets the short end of the stick in "serious musical discussions". A lot of pop is swept under the rug as formulaic music for simple-minded people, so it's challenging for a pop musician to innovate while essentially staying the same artist. It boils down to mixing together a bit of something old, a bit of something new, and the musical equivalent of Chemical X. These are the ingredients which form The Hit Single, a coveted substance sought by many, found by few, and difficult to produce at scale. Over the last few years Charisma.com has taken the approach of slowly but steadily expanding their musical palette in order to produce many Hit Singles. The beats of last year's OLest were much more dynamic than the offerings found on their debut EP for example; they pushed their sound to a place they hadn't taken it before while still keeping the pop hooks and hard hitting commentary that got them fans. Their newest release 愛泥C is set to bring everything together and take it up another level, but inconsistency holds it back. I would describe the issue as death by one thousand tiny cuts. Elements don't come together as they should. I am no stranger to famous Japanese producers assisting the dynamic duo, but it feels like the different producers never agreed on the core sound of the album. It will bounce from pop to dance music to hip hop very fast, and sometimes they go off on weird tangents or include cringe-worthy sections (most specifically "GODCustomer"), which requires the flow of the album be immaculate to make up for the constant change in mood. It's not. There's the lead single "サプリミナル・ダイエット" which is classic Charisma to a fault, the deliciously smooth "PF4", and the infectious "ベルサッサ" which catches my ear and please me greatly. Then there are the tracks which sound pleasant but leave no effect at all on me, such as the end track "自撮ール". Then there are the more abstract trap influenced bangers such as "腰掛けラップ", where Itsuka shows some difficulty in flowing with the beat. It's unfortunate that the most abstract beats are the most beastly but also complemented with trap influences and a very lazy chorus where the beat drops and they echo a phrase for eight bars. It's supposed to sound hard but doesn't. Charisma.com feel much more comfortable in electro pop / hip-hop territory and it shows. Charisma seem to have an easier time making snazzy hits when they stick to pop territory and I'd much prefer if they kept the trap influences to a minimum. Bigger isn't always better, and when some tracks bang hard and others fall flat, the whole experience feels like empty calories. More than ever it feels like they're forcing themselves to be catchy, hip, and "lolsorandom". I adore where the duo takes their brand of pop music, but not at the expense of consistency. They need to stop trying so hard. Throwing everything and the kitchen sink at the listener is a surefire way to lose their attention. Scale some of the stranger elements of the beats back a tiny bit, get all your producers in a room to talk about the experience as a whole, and keep the hard hitting social commentary mixed with humorous lyrical themes the band is known for. There needs to be the right amount of direction to offset the spastic insanity that is Charisma.com. Purchase from CDJapan!

    I know I always wonder this too when a band does a solo. Like if its going to sound the same like the band might as well release it as so. The titles seem to sound like something sid would release but I guess will see. Anyway it goes just hearing something from Mao would make me happy, I always love his voice

    I don't think it's bad at all. It's definitely a nice break from the gloom that DEG spiralled into in the DSS era. There's a mix of darkness, beauty, complexity, and strangely, playfulness. We haven't had fun songs like Cause of Fickleness and Chain Repulsion for quite a while.

    Immortalis blew me away, my favorites being the songs written by Uta, whereas Vitium had me like "???". It was just too calm and lacked something, still not a bad album, just nowhere near as good as Immortalis. Someone uploaded their recent show at Chofu City Green Hall and it's amazing. No dvd footage does these guys justice though, saw them live in 2014 and it's like stepping into some really dark acid trip.

    Arche is the best DEG album imo, followed by DSS. The atmosphere of Arche as a whole, it's painful but every song is so beautifuly melodic, that makes it the top album for me. I know it's a lot more mellow compared to the other releases of the band, but I don't get why people seem to hate it so much. It's like the band went in a different direction while keeping their essence, I really appreciate that.

    MARROW actually turned me off the band for a few months the first time I heard it. I wasn't a big metal fan back then, and its raw, unrelenting aggression confused and shocked me. I had to give it another couple of shots before the album clicked with me.

    Nobody is here? Lol. I liked their first two singles, and if I have to say my favorite song , for now I will go with abiss gatE cause the vocal part is better imo. Anyway I'm really curious to hear the new release, it seems to be even better than these two judging from the preview. Also, the cover is very pretty.
