La'Veil MizeriA due to release a new single in April: "薄紅ノ葬"
Takadanobabaalien and 3 others reacted to Peace Heavy mk II for a post in a topic
For me, it's the mixing that's keeping me from being super hyped up. The vocals always sound the same: there's no change in dynamic or delivery and that makes it feel flat. -

LAVANS vo.NANA has been fired from the band
ShTon and 3 others reacted to Peace Heavy mk II for a post in a topic
I don't understand why they feel like firing someone is "selfish?" Like, he's fucking up your shows, which in turn annoys your fans and hurts you sales + live attendance. If he's dead weight, drop him. -

3 pointsTranslation kinda like this. Thank you very much for always supporting LAVANS. This time we have not such good news. It's a pity that our live schedule doesn't give us more time, however we tried to get in contact with Vo. NANA however we couldn't get any contact with him anymore. Because of this the 4 of us have decided to fire NANA from the band. Although it's really disappointing and very selfish, we hope to not to worry our fans and everybody who involved any future. We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience. Regarding the currently scheduled live schedule, vocal support shion (ex.LIEVRE CLAY) will join us. And we hope that everybody will welcome him warmly, thank you in advance. As LAVANS will continue unchanged in the future We appreciate your continued support once again. ____________ So another silent; -I leave the band- happening.

That's the shitty thing about Starwave, now that I'm actually getting into some of their bands. The mixing is always ass and that just kills my hype altogether. Also offtopic, but that's what's been killing Labaiser's music lately. Their mini-album sounded *really* good, but their singles always sound like shit :/ -

Thank you. ( : Tonight's post is, a wip from an abandoned commission project, and more eyes. Also now I have a new job interview on friday, it would allow me to make more personal stuff and not have to shell out all my energy on boring still-lives. I'm both excited and filled with fear lol. -

anything is better than continuing with Mia and Meto I like the calm voice of tsuzuku. If it was something like that, for me, they can bury Mejibray forever. -

Suddenly remembered a live stream, it was around 2013 or so, and Sharaku got drunk, it was extremely fast, after one or two "strong zero"... and when he went to the toilet he forgot to turn off his microphone. -

I agree so much. Though, I feel the mixing on this is much better than the mixing on 悲哀囀ル調べ (or at least the mixing on the song Farwell, as I haven't checked out the other songs on it). The mixing on Farewell was 90% treble. Like... I know Kiwamu isn't the best producer, but I at least expect him to eq some midrange and/or bass -

When can we finally have hypersexualized male figurines like we have big titty anime girls? -
1 pointAs if their label would allow them to do such a thing. Ha. I'll rant about BP Records some other time, though... Judging by the previews, the song is not good enough to be a single and the b-sides are bland. It's not so much that the compositions bore me, or that I don't like the idea of the traditional synth, but they just drown all their music in synth nowadays, it's overkill! They need to go light on the background synth stuff and focus on the instruments that they claim to actually play. They did a much better job achieving a balancing of actual music and synth until a few years ago. Maybe I'll grow to really like 春時雨 when it surfaces on an album, but in the mean time, I'm skipping it. Let's just see what コドモドラゴン and Royz have to offer this month...

karai · ebi reacted to platy for a post in a topic
All this hype for kids war and it was just an average song. The new mini is barely passable and THE KINKY and innocent holic are the ones that stood out for me as songs that I would come back to. Regardless, the bass sounded great in every track so props to Tomo for including some good slapping. -
1 pointThere's raw as in sushi, which is good for consumption. Then there's raw as in water, which isn't good for consumption. Raw as a descriptor for music isn't always a good thing for me. It has to bring together the intended effect and the actual effect. Tsuzuku may have been going for seductive, sensational, or even some weird mix of sexual and creepy, but he was unable to execute what he heard in his head. Terrible execution does not get points for trying in my book. This is a problem I've had with MEJIBRAY for as long as they were active, and is why I fell off the MEJIWAGON early. They have plenty of ideas - ideas I wish the rest of the scene would have - but they are barely ever able to translate those ideas into results for whatever reason.

Piracy's role in visual kei
Brandon reacted to chemicalpictures for a post in a topic
To begin, we must pleeease understand that the correlation of piracy = loss of a sale is FALSE. People pirating releases ARE NOT making musicians lose money, period. If people hadn't shared, I don't know, batsu game's latest release, I would NOT buy it. I would simply go on without listening to it, because I don't care enough for them to go out of my way to buy a physical copy of something that would cost me 3 USD if it was an itunes release (btw the single sucks). This is true to 95% of the vk listeners, and has been widely discussed in sample pools much larger than a niche japanese music scene, like videogames for example. People buy what they like, period. If you do not let them at least try, why the hell should they buy your music? That being said, people vastly, VASTLY overestimates the importance of western fandom to the scene. We are not the main target, we are not their main income source, the music isn't made for us. We are a plus in the scene, and every single release a westerner fan buys, it's an EXTRA income for the band. They are not counting with our money, people gotta understand that most of the bands simply don't care if we are listening to them or not, as long as their onemans are filled with japanese girls doing dance steps at their songs. Very few bands have the desire for more international exposure, and if that's the case, they sure have to adapt to our ways, as we are not obliged to accept their 90's thinking in the age of streaming. IF japanese fans started pirating instead of buying, THEN we would have a problem. Music is dogs eating dogs everywhere in the world, why would be different for japanese boys in make up? Bands that are actually good, or at least are able to gather interest in their music will flourish, no matter what. People fail to understand that the scene is small because of it's characteristics, because boys dressing like girls and shredding guitars is niche and most importantly, it's foundation is what holds it back. No ammount of western pirates will make or break a band, period. fun fact, UNiTE. shared most of their discography on Spotify, I don't know if it is restricted in japan (which would be a smart thing to do). Yeah they are bigger than most vk acts around, but that does show they are not following the outdated tunneled vision most bands are, and see us as what we are. Extra income, if they get to book a concert here and there, fine! If not, fine aswell, their focus is where it should be, their growth in Japan, without closing their doors to us, the outsiders. -
