new PUNCH RECORDS band "IIIRD" (Third) has formed and they will appear at Cure World Visual Festival 2019 at 新木場STUDIO COAST on April 28. They are described as "passionate, depressive metal", so they better be good. 🙏 More info will be revealed on February 2... OHP

I leave you an audio fragment of one of his last concerts, in case someone is interested. Among other songs, "Tragedy Night of Restraint" appears, which will be included in the new CD. Charisma Kijin and Kei together with Taji (ARTiCLEAR) with the look of the concert on January 25th.

Jin has never met a song he couldn't ask "but can we make it 7 minutes long though?" about. (And I loved that about Nega, so this gives me more hope than the first track they dropped did.)

I don’t think that for him or satsuki it was a choice, they’re just both dropdead idiots who tour europe and sell their shitty arts and crafts on the web because literally every other bridge has been burned.

oh I just saw it! Welcome Kinoko Child!

to be fair, the design looks somewhat "kradish" if I may say so also if I remember correctly all the members mentioned something about "from 2nd february on..." maybe I was just dreaming or interpreting too much but I would love to see them together once more,they are just a wonderful combo. Also when shedia "disbanded" we already had this mysterious new band "krad" announced(like I said if I remember correctly) edit: ONE MORE THING.Krad is also from the same lable so it can certainly be that IIIRD consists of ex-krad members. Additionally interpreting the III as a symbol for them sticking together as a 3rd try/band or its just wordplay cause you would pronounce IIIRD third if I am not horribly wrong here

All the memebers used to be in SHEDIA then switched their name and concept, and eventually their label.

I didnt understand everything myself but its basically how they feel about the disbandment,how they thought Krad would be like but the result didnt pay out as they wanted it to and we see it ourselves actually. They didnt get enough out of it and thats what happens usually when bands dont meet their expectations. I think the vocal of schwartz;mist mentioned something like that a while ago aswell,like if you dont sell and people dont attend the lives,which is really sad,cause(as the most might know) I am a huge fan of KRAD(and SHEDIA obv.) and not knowing when and if they will be back really sucks. I just hope they will be more successful with their next bands/projects 🙏

it seems like dexcore lyric subtitle mess taught them nothing x "fibrin blocks the way of dreams" "To the end of the sky even the black swan can't flapping"

I am interessing for mamireta ( they're fun And I like certains song ) and Zero[Hz] ( beaucause I love their music, the voice of ROY and generic sounds). I am not search the originality, but their fun or emotions or for to daydream. I attend their new releases (>.<"). And maybe HOWL , because their music seem oshare kei.

For a moment there I got confused and thought Influenza is some random small kote-kei band's name. Would be a cool band name tho. Influenza 1st デモテープ「Because of Influenza」リリース！

LIQUID 1st full album will be released this autumn. It will include re-recorded version of their previous singles, "月光 (Gekkou)", "REDO" and "穢れ (Kegare)". Details will come at later date.

(this reminds me of Amaji/Kindai Black so much)

LOUD GRAPE

Just recently created this account, so there isn't much. Hope to add more this year ^^ https://www.last.fm/user/monkeybanana4

@-NOVA- Look at this!!! sounds amazing ❤️

I mixed French and English...

Kisaki’s coming back xoxo

This song is seriously giving me NEGA (the later years). A bit tired sounding, but I'd rather take this over another TBS-ish band. edit: LMAO I completely forgot we already had a song by these guys. That one was terrible, this one was okay, so dunno what to expect anymore really... xDDD

Got my ticket for London. VIP sold out within 10 mins lol

🤔They use the word END... Yet, my Japanese isn't good enough to understand fully what they say, So if someone can tanslate it? I guess there is some hidden information inside.

Well, if you want a different sound, you can check out Leetspeak. I do not stan them, but they manage to get people into a party atmosphere live. They are very atypical and I would recommend to catch them at a festival for having a good time. Otherwise I agree on Grimoire being very cool! Such a shame that Tokinokito has disbanded, I really liked their songs as they contained a variety of cool elements.

Virge is obviously my favorite but DIMLIM and Kizu are super awesome too, I've loved pretty much everything they've put out so far. I've also recently gotten pretty interested in Sarigia and Verxina, I think they have some good potential.

DOBE

penicillin always sound fresh x

I feel your pain over your default picture.

Dunno, I found it in a random video with gosan guys lol

They make their bands look and sound cheap, especially established bands who were once popular in the scene before signing with them.

I buy a limited edition from the GazettE album "NIL"

Torikago ~L'Oiseau bleu~ by D Has got an AMAZING guitar solo at the beginning, as well as all through it. It's a slower, gentler song but I enjoy it a lot.

I'll have to update with more but for now this one stands out to me from Sugar. The guitar was super addictive to me when I first discovered this track. Sugar - あるいは裏切りという名の愛

hide - Dice This was my first hide song ever and this solo has always stuck with me. Versailles - Love from a Dead Orchestra This has always been my favorite Versailles song, and the solo has a lot to do with that. Perhaps a touch "noodley," but not enough to make it feel like just pure fast guitar wankery, and there is enough substance here that I find it incredibly memorable. Dir en grey - Cage I'll be the first one to admit that this one is over rated as heck...though perhaps not any more (do people even talk about early era diru anymore? lol). That said, it's still quite catchy and a bass solo still is something you hardly hear. When I thought of guitar solos in Jrock, this is one of the first ones that jumped in to my mind. NoGod - Guren Perhaps this would be in the "runner up" category for me in terms of solos, but I still enjoy this one a fair bit. It also reminds me of how much I miss early NoGod. I know I am missing one major one for myself here. When I first saw this thread, I knew exactly what song I needed to include. But for the love of god I can't remember what that song is anymore.

The single letter ones are bad no matter if it's a band name or a member's stage name. There's way too many K's out there.

i like your mom xx

Royz- which I keep pronouncing as "Roids" Golden Collard green fried chicken or whatever Gackt's other project was called. Dummy-xD - that some myspace name Baboo Aboo F@nny Far east dizain Buglug Gibkiy gibkiy gibkiy Log Micro 4heads pon pon or whatever that name is the 😮 um the : O Fest Vainqueuer Sex machineguns had a name before reminded me of Ino from Naruto SHILFEE AND TULIPCOROBOCKLES <--- wut?

what about pink hallelujah

You could say she was lakynn some common sense. ...No? Fuck you, my mum thinks I'm funny.

Some of the guesses here even make me as someone who's never been to Japan or doesn't know a lick of japanese feel like an insider of the biz. Mamireta disbanding while they're clearly growing in popularity is impossible bar some totally extraordinary circumstance and Gazette and Lynch have pretty evidently zero reasons to disband as well functioning T-shirt factories, oh and... Mejibray? Seriously

he's out x

Pitty will get his revenge one by one, slowly but surely.

I forgot how terrible the cover was for Rentrer en Soi's Amongst Foolish Enemies
