why tho we're in the age when major bands vogue in a white room for four minutes, slap a stock ink blot clip on top of that and call it a day. garden is an independent cinematic SPECTACLE compared to that shit tbh

Insanity Injection digital mini-album "Psychotic Cabaret -remastared-" will be released on November 11 under Malformed Maria Records (Makoto's label).

I think we’ve found a new candidate for “worst Jrock CD covers”

GURL.

Typical Takeru.

There you go!

Kiwamu on the sidelines, hoping this sparks a connection with younger Western fans

I already have a best of album which is everything from Orion Once Again to Jagganath.

Any PV filmed in a forest or church is immune to criticism.

well... I'm sure they have their fanbase but to me, it's for the best !

I've always liked the Reiketsu Neriseba pv just cuz i like the collage aesthetic but it is pretty fucking goofy honestly... Child Prey is pretty fucking ridiculous on a conceptual level in its entirety but somehow the whole thing works (granted, the song is still ass, but still)

^ You left the image of the bass player: The knight in the white dress is another singer: vo.蓮(Ren)

With the release of this album they'll have more best of album releases than actual original studio albums.

Yes, thanks you ! I did not even see that I had forgotten a word...

They will hold their 2nd anniversary oneman live 「give a pig a chair.」on October 16. just posted that here cuz for once I can relate to an event name :v

Full MV released

If I'm reading the blog entry correctly, he states that he will be playing with the band at their live on 2019.03.09, but he will quit from the band after the live. I think that's what @The Piass meant?

Top ten favorite bands? That's super hard! I like and listen to lots of bands. After some hard contemplation, here is my list of my top ten visual kei bands. (In no particular order. I think.) Kagrra, - This band will be irreplaceable to me. They created beautiful, harmonizing sounds by being able to play rock music and blend it with the koto. The music they played never sounded forceful or awkward. It also spoke to the wider themes of Japanese culture and truly emanated those kinds of transient yet beautiful sounds. Also, much of the lyrics were either philosophical or referenced to nature - something I really appreciated and adored. It wasn't always just a straight up "I love you" or "I'm super sad" song. Also, they embraced that Japanese theme with not only the music, but also with their costumes and names (of the songs). Knowing that this band will never come back for obvious reasons makes me somewhat depressed. They are other bands like Kiryu or Wagakki Band who use traditional Japanese instruments and wear traditional Japanese costumes, but it doesn't feel the same to me. Something about Kagrra, was simply magical. (I could be giving Kagrra, way too much credit here, lol.) SCREW - They were that band people either really hated or really liked. Ironically, I didn't even pay attention to them until their Duality album. Afterward, I became a huge fan of them. Some fans argued about the change in bassists. No doubt the band's style changed, but I still enjoyed the content they put out. My favorite albums has to be Fusion of Core and X-Rays. Plus, they were super hilarious and entertaining to see live. I was so sad when they disbanded. But I suppose all good things must come to an end. Vidoll - They may have not been the most spectacular or the best band ever, but I did like the music they created. Also, I enjoyed Jui's nice voice. In particular, I loved their jazzy songs. It was such a shame that they disbanded. I would have loved to see them play live. Sadie - They get lots of flak for sounding like DEG (not completely unwarranted - although, doesn't almost every VK band sound like DEG at some point?). Nonetheless, I still enjoyed their music even right before they took a hiatus. I like listening to Mao's deep voice accompanied by the music. DIMLIM - I've only recently found out about this band, but I am digging the content they've released so far. The singer also has a great voice that can growl and sing wonderfully. I'm looking to forward to seeing how the band will grow and what kind of music they'll create in the future. Diaura - Thanks to a friend, I was introduced to this band, and I have loved their music ever since. They've changed members since they first started, but I'm never disappointed by the music they create. (Although, what's going on with them now? It's kind of confusing since they created another band with the same name and members, but it's now stopping? Oh, visual kei.) Versailles - Their costumes, which are reminiscent of traditional European styled clothes, and music grabbed my attention. My favorite albums have to be Noble and Jubilee. Kamijo has such a sexy, alluring voice and I appreciated how they focused on the instrumentals, too. Some bands, it'll usually only be one person who plays all of the solos, but in Versailles, every instrument got their little bit of solo in the songs. (At least, that's what I remember from my skewed memories.) D'espairRays - Unfortunately, I only discovered them way after they disbanded. It makes me wonder why I didn't listen to them before. Hizumi has such an incredible voice and the band plays a unique, dark, and depressing rock sound that I have not heard another band play. It's quite unfortunate as to what happened to the band before they disbanded. They really had something truly amazing. vistlip - Not only are they a funny band, but they also can create both dark, heavy music and light, happy music. Also, Tomo (the singer) has a nice range for his voice. It's soothing to listen to. I also enjoy Umi's rapping parts, lol. Their lives are also lots of fun. Alice Nine/A9 - I was first introduced to visual kei through bands like Nightmare, Kagerou, and merry. But Alice Nine was the first band I religiously followed. They were the first band in which I bought a poster of and laminated it to specifically hang it on my wall, lol. Despite how they've changed their name and style as a band, they'll always hold a special place. I would have also added Shoujo Lolita23Q, Megaromania, Moran, Mejibray, Monolith, and the Gazette. But I could only have the 'top' ten in this list, so unfortunately I couldn't add them ;w;

There are 2 editions : the first one (500 copies) is the one above and the other (100 copies) will only be available during their lives and via mail-order.

kinda sad to say that Clarence Clarity's Think: Peace and mewithoutYou's untitled album have both already bumped TIW off my playlist. . . . they're both just THAT good

I saw this recently on twitter, in regards to the #WomenTakeaKnee and #TakeAKneeForWomen hashtags spawned in backlash to the Kavanuagh nomination. I understand where he's coming from. I'm sure these women mean well, but their methods are certainly in want of tact and general consideration. For so-called blacks, our struggles have continually been co-opted, usurped, subverted, and perverted by groups outside of us throughout our history in this land. And in light of that, it does come off as opportunistic, and even disrespectful, of white liberal women to try and append their movement onto ours - especially when they've never had any 'skin in the game' concerning our plight. Now that's not to denigrate the #metoo movement at all - it's simply to make a distinction. These are two separate issues, and two separate movements. With that said, however; I personally think that protesting is a waste of time - especially for the so-called Negro. We've continually supplicated to a nation that has practically shown no regard for us over nearly 400 years. Our time and energy would be better spent taking redemptive action for and towards our own, rather than endlessly trying to convince others of our humanity.

All of these lost members should just form a supergroup that randomly doesn’t show up to lives.

offtopic but there ain't nothing like playing devil may cry in bra & panties & your married sugar daddy's coat

I went to a wedding recently and stayed in a fancy hotel

I went to a renaissance faire for the first time today, and I got covered in rats!

The American Republican Party should fuck off all the way to Pluto. (re: Kavanaugh hearing, mostly) I have been a victim of "minor" sexual assaults. I have never told anybody about these incidents. I fully understand why women who were victims of far worse choose not to speak up. Looking at the results of that shit hearing, I fully understand why women will refuse to speak up in the future about any political appointee. It doesn't fucking matter to the Republicans/conservatives. "How dare you ruin this good man's reputation?" "I knew Brett in high school, he didn't rape me, so he couldn't possibly have raped somebody else!" "Are you SURE it was him? Maybe it was somebody who looked like him." "We can't ruin his life because of one accusation with no evidence. Oh, there are three accusations? We can't ruin his life because of three accusations with no evidence." "THIS IS A SHAM, THE DEMOCRATS ARE DESPERATE, THEY ARE PAYING THESE WOMEN TO MAKE UP STORIES #SOROS!!!!" Fuck right off. Need I remind you that this is essentially a job interview, not a criminal trial? If a dude was applying to flip burgers at McDonald's, he'd be disqualified in a heartbeat. Somehow, a dude applying for Supreme Court Justice (or, hell, dude applying for President) is held to lower standards. i.e. NO STANDARDS EXCEPT HE'S GONNA TOE THE REPUBLICAN LINE. The very least you could do is delay the confirmation vote and allow the FBI to investigate. But no, we can't have that either. It's a good thing I'm Canadian and will probably not have to worry about abortion suddenly becoming illegal. Or watching the country descend into fascism. Never say never, though. I see that cancer spreading.

Sup🤘 Where are my fellow the GazettE/hide/MORRIGAN/SARIGIA/DIMLIM/まみれた/R指定 fans?

Be sure to sell to Alucardius, he is awesome

Does Dandelion include the trading card? How much shipped to Germany?

it's true, so sad, and this one too

Chair on fire cuz art

The pillows is amazing too! My favourite album is Little Busters: I listen mostly to the more recent Concerto Moon, which may or may not fit your needs. This song, Savior Never Cry, is amazing, and the singer of it is the new vocalist of Jupiter!

Isn't this a degenerate copypasta/shitposting thread though? This IS the spam section after all :v

Degenerates.

Haha, I would not have thought about it until this thread... but having been to a few VK shows I now will absolutely think to myself "oh this has got to be the bit they jump back and forth across the venue during" or "I bet this three minute song takes 15 during a concert". There are names for the different moves??

"Dir en gay" is probably one of the oldest ones I remember. "Gay-zette" Too easy tho... "Giruga-mess" "Fuck-Dick" for Buck-Tick "suck-it-kyo" sukekiyo There's also a joke for Spanish speakers when you call LM.C by their full name as Lovely Mocochang because it translates to "Lovely booger-chang".

A woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could if a woodchuck could chuck wood. lol. Do you believe in karma?

X-ray vision so I can be the most sly pervert on the planet. How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
