no one outside of 5 foreign fans care about this meme debacle it had literally nothing to do with anything ps his english is clearly not good i dont think he was trying to say anything about ryuya

Summary: I'm an edgelord who bullies underage fans but I don't want to admit it, so I'm making a fake apology to make myself seem noble, but leaving out the fact that I bullied underage fans. Oh also, I'm shit at marketing and likes to address fans as "Motherfuckers" like I'm some sailor. But I also won't admit that, because I want to look like the victim, because I'm probably clinically a narcissist.

Translated Issei's comment bc it's rife for drama

So, um, I crossdressed some days ago.

LMAO. this pleases me

Yo I've been looking for this deadman CD forEVER. girugamesh - Kuukyo no Utsuwa (first press +signed by all members) deadman - no alternative (mail order edition) Screw - Venom Screw - Virus

i use r/Animewallpaper for all of my needs.

@AimiGen7 @emmny I understand there's a lot of hoopla with Issei's behavior, but don't resort to personal attacks on each other please. Save the dragging for Issei lol, ie. stay on topic

I was reading that part all wrong. He's pointing out that he wasn't nice to members of the band/staff (and fans) and he couldn't grow as an artist BECAUSE of the band. Not in-leu of the band. AKA: they kicked him out, but since he's the leader, he can't say it that way.

OH THAT ISSEI GUY?? Good, good riddance to that prick.... ...wait, isn't he the leader tho? cuz that's what i've been hearing from various ppl

From what I can gather, he got surgery(?) and hopes to return to the stage soon. A tweet from the band's twitter also seems to say that they'll be with four members next live(?) which is on the 10th.

My gf and I are fueling each other's Jiluka obession up to dangerous levels. send help

I feel bad for D's Orokashii Yuu no Yume PV. It's a gorgeous PV in 480p. LOL

I punched the computer monitor

It bothers me that Malice Mizer has and probably will never reunite and make another album. I think they would have already had the financial prospects been attractive enough, but I've always believed money was the reason they broke up in the first place (too much overhead), and Mana is fine with doing M10M. Cheaper band to run and he keeps the lion's share of the money. But I don't like M10M and Kozi's ZIZ band is awful. I wish Mana could talk Klaha into quitting his job at the car wash or whatever the hell he does these days and give it one more go. Yu~Ki is probably bartending or something, he can't get one night a week off to practice? Come on. I'd also love a Die in Cries reunion but that won't happen because of D'erlanger.

Thank you for letting me know

I don't know the other bands, but HATED were an amazing nagoya band from the mid-2000s, the vocalist went on to meth. which was decently popular for a short while. I'm sure there's still some downloads around here on the forum or the net for their maxi-single.

DADAROMA's 2017 年 7 月 21 日の日記 is GOOD. FINALLY a good new song, btw.

Apparently his results are good and he can come back in Nagoya.

well...this pleases me as well.Sho and Ryuya are the only ones who matters to me now i didn't like the production of DIMLIM at all,but the vocals were amazing hope they can make something different from their past releases and still keep it heavy (would be nice if Ryo trackmaker help them out like he did with deviloof)

top 1 bands that should REALLY do a reunion: the mad capsule markets

I hope they won't disband.... they're one of the most promising bands lately.

Haha, I'm not surprised, they had so many live together, and it seems they're really good friends. It's so cute. <3

I want to address something that I feel needs to be. I'm sorry for how cringey I was during my first few months on this forum, with my weird fan theories, and my lowkey highkey defending of Kisaki. I was younger (granted, it wasn't THAT long ago) and more stupid, but I'm a young adult now, and I'm trying to move past from that. I recognise how much of an idiot I was, and I am actively trying to improve. I'm taking more responsibility for myself here, and I've been trying to actually provide more reliable info on stuff as of recent, especially since I have friends within the Japanese VisualKei scene now (one, who I view dearly as a brother of mine, is in a small indie band, and actually sometimes volunteers to work with bigger (compared to his. Usually bands like the AINS bands) bands). I also recognise that I used to be a bit of an attention whore here, though I didn't realise it at the time until VERY recently. The most recent incident was negligible, since it was more of a speculation based on actual logic. I don't think it compares to the stuff I've said in the past that I am authentically ashamed of, and am trying to look past. I'm sorry to those I have angered in the past, or have given a really bad first impression of myself to. I hope you forgive me. And if you still won't give me a 2nd chance, well that's totally fine. But I'm not leaving any time soon. I'm willing to give those who were mean to me due to the shit I said a 2nd chance though. Just know I'm not the same person I was in 2016 (and yes, I know that sounds so stereotypical, but hear me out, ok? I dealt with some personal shit between then and now that made me realise I should probably work on being a better person.)

this is what happens when you let a damn rat lead your band! good riddance (2)

tsubasa was a good bassist so im sad about this and issei's compositions were good...this a NO NO i wonder whether they'll become more or less visual, tbh issei's simple drumming was holding them back but tsubasa's bass work added that toshiya-style complexity and made them like....new DEG kohai band potential. interesting shake up overall

Okay... Issei is an asshole so idc about his departure, I hope they won't disband tho

@ghostGreat pickups! No alternative is, of course, a classic. I rather enjoyed those Screw eps back in the day, but holy crap that cover art is laughably bad.

heeeey cool stuff!! where did you study 3D game art, if you don't mind me asking? i've been thinking a lot about studying game art/design and am planning to attend an art university next year~ i already have a place in mind but just wanna know where you went. ^^ anyway, these look really great! have you been continuing any of these recently? i'd love to see more!

Bought a ticket for MORRIGAN in Paris for my bf! (Not even 60 regular sold...)

I wish he'd tattoo them on already 💦💦

you wont get it until you do them on yourself and see just how much slimmer and sexier ur neck chin and jaw look...can't believe ruki invented contouring

sitting here to study math while MORRIGAN performs in Munich rn fmllll

TOP 1 WORST PEOPLE EVER: The Bragger-but-not-sharer. booooo hoooo

also @ZeusComing here to set the facts about Dir en grey straight: This is incorrect, Setsuna was a WIP project song by Dir en grey that developed over the course of 1997 (starting out as 5 minutes and evolving into a nearly 7 minute track) until finally being scrapped in the first half of 1998 for reasons unknown. Whether Setsuna was an official title or one given to it by fans is still subject to speculation. "Ai Murasaki Iro" Is in fact pronounced "Ranshishoku" based on a newspaper interview which I scanned and upped some year ago from a indie magazine made in early 1998. I know this due to the fact that the name was written out in katakana. It's the onyomi pronunciation of the same kanji. They played this song at every oneman live starting from August 1997 until their last indies live at the Budokan, after which it was scrapped due to poor audience response, supposedly. They had another unreleased longer track that they played throughout the second half of 1997 and on and off into early 1998 which then subsequently disappeared as well. No known title for this track. There was an early version of Mazohyst of Decadence played from 1997 which differed slightly. raison detre had a early quite different version which premiered at their oneman tour in late 1997 and evolved into it's current form during 1998. ZAN is also one of the earliest songs they wrote, and it was played from their first tour in april 1997 and onwards in various stages of evolution until it arrived at the GAUZE form in late 1998. Tsumi to Batsu was also performed during their last indies tour in a slightly different format. They also premiered two new songs at the DUM SPIRO SPERO and Kisou part of the recent tour respectively which haven't been mentioned or played since. I could go on but I think that'll do for now.

Can westerners visual kei? Yoshiki: Yes www Me, an intelectual: no

One of the elderly bandsmen I deeply respect told me recently, that he felt quite uncomfortable when he saw western bands trying to be visual kei. It makes him feel like the japanese visual kei is ダサい too. Well, sometimes it really is.

oh hey, someone mentioned ナイトメア on here and i get to be relevant again~ i'm taking a guess and assuming your copy of ジャイアニズム is the 2006 VAP remaster, which in my opinion sounds absolutely terrible. 通常版 is two jewel cases w/ tan booklets (& separate catalog #s) [VPCC-84156 & VPCC-84157] 初回版 is one jewel case w/ the same tan-coloured booklet in a black jacket w/ gold trim [VPCC-84155] They're the same audio/tracklist, only difference afaik is packaging & booklet contents. i don't know why they thought this was a good idea but this release was remastered to have a similar sound quality to メア's upcoming VAP albums, which i really don't think these songs sound nice with. i'm not 100% on where this PV actually comes from but i'm taking a guess & saying it was included w/ the first press of 自由奔放天真爛漫 [SDR-021], since that's the first release where the track shows up. So as far as getting the ~exact same~ audio that's on the PV, check out that disc. One thing you might want to look into is the 2003 Speed Disk 'original' ジャイアニズム [SDR-049 & SDR-050] (only 1 ver. of release across two jewel cases). I say 'original' bc every track that's on this disc is ALSO a remaster (except for 華談 & love tripper; they're new recordings here) but imho this master is miles better for every single track, compared to both their first appearances on various speed disk singles/omnibus and any later remaster/retakes. I'm a bit biased here but this is definitely my favourite release of メア's catalog, if you call it one release. I think the sound guy took every instrument's track & slammed a hard compressor on it & drowned Yomi's voice in a stupid amount of reverb, putting it kinda low down in the mix. Both the kind of decisions that should ruin a release but somehow it worked super well here, which is why i'm so pissed the later release went for such a 'normal' approach instead.

Takashi Miike live-action adaption of Blade of the Immortal looks so fucking sweet. Miike is the perfect director of a film like this too, as he's gonna make the entire film a big, fucking bloodbath. Can't wait!

For a request!! ^^ Lyrics: Chiaki Music: Chiaki Kanji source: rocklyric Kanji: 「君の子宮を触る」 Romaji: "Kimi no shikyuu o sawaru" English: "I'll Touch Your Uterus" Enjoy~! For such a strange song title, the lyrics are surprisingly more soft core than usual.

ruki probably hates all their music on the dl and just wants to do trap and sell ripoff merch

Fuck this album was trashed by people back in the day, and now it's pretty much entirely forgotten about; all the while I thought it was great pretty much from day one and still spin it on occasion. The aesthetics have this sort of ill-dated charm to them now too.

KAMIJO has never changed though.

Sui (Ghost Phobia ➡ Metis Gretel ➡ Megaromania ➡ lin ➡ David)

That project is finally finished. It was hell putting it together in Unreal Engine 4 and it's not my best work at all, but I'm happy that I managed to complete it and the outcome isn't as bad as it could've been. I'll be working on it as a personal project now in my spare time.

I was diagnosed with Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT) at 18 months old. CMT is a degenerative neuromuscular dirorder that effects the myelin sheath around the nerves. Motor signals don't get sent as well to the muscles, it bt becomes harder to use them, and eventually you forget what it was ever like to use them. CMT gets progressively worse and starts at the fingers and toes and works its way up over the years. I still have some function in my shoulders, hips, neck, and torso, but I can't use any muscles in my legs or arms. Things my specific type of CMT affects (We think it's all related) My vocal chords are partially paralyzed, so my voice sounds like the bastard lovechild of Gollum and Darth Vader. My eyeballs are broke. My vision without glasses is about 20/300 without glasses, 20/100 with. I'm legally blind. My diaphragm is slightly weaken, so I can't breathe in or out as strongly and pretty bad stress, anxiety, and depression from all this and knowing it's going to get worse. The cool ways I adapt and cope I use the tip of my nose to use phones/tablets/anything with a touchscreen. It works really well (especially since I have to be that close to see the screen anyways), and I use a toothbrush in my mouth to type on a regular computer. Playing video games is fun, and I play Overwatch a lot with @Zeus I sit on the floor in front of the monitor, use a mouse on the floor on my right (moving and clicking buttons with my palm), an xbox controller on the floor in front of me (using the left joystick to move/click in for an ability), and the toothbrush keyboard method to type/hit keys for abilities etc. I try to deal with all the anxiety and depression by throwing myself into working on RarezHut. I know I must seem to a lot of people that I only use MH to mostly promote RarezHut, but constantly working is how I stat (mostly) sane. I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for @Biopanda though. He works as my caregiver, co-owner of RarezHut, and my best friend in the world. We've been roommates and he's been helping me since 2008, and I'm surprised we haven't killed eachother yet since we see eachother every day all day. Every day he helps me get dressed, eat meals, take a shower, even as simple as grabbing something from across the room. Panda has been there at my darkest moments when the weight of everything and the knowledge that there is no light at the end of the tunnel causes me to just collapse into a quivering mess of tears.

Is this really Sakrun? Sounds to me like solid vk speed metal. Is this their early song? Was it recorded on a demo? Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance. =D
