Diaura officially switch labels
sakuran and one other reacted to Jigsaw9 for a post in a topic
To be fair, I don't think FORUM has an official website or Twitter. They do have an official Youtube channel tho (and weirdly enough a Google Plus profile with two updates, btw the profile points to the official MEJIBRAY website as the label's "official site" lol). -
2 pointsThey shouldn't have photoshopped them so pale. You can obviously see their tanned skin in the reflection of the window. I was about to say contouring has gotten out of hands these days. Also didn't realize they moved from Sapporo to Tokyo.

Zeus and one other reacted to Karma’s Hat for a post in a topic
Just started playing the album. First impression is that it's pitch black and very dense, totally committed to being loud, dark and asphyxiating in the way it's produced and composed. Songs are loaded with shit despite being a bit of a toning down from early DIMLIM, and I like it. My first impression is that it's like this mix of early DIMLIM and a little bit some late 00's nu metal like Unsraw and shit like that. The vocals are awesome with enough personality to be able to be picked out from a line, while still being technically totally acceptable even when they retain this roughness that's characteristic of visual kei. Loads of early DIMLIM and heavier nokubura material callbacks in the songs, which is nice although it doesn't really reach the peaks they sometimes did. I haven't even finished the album yet tho so we'll see. For me personally this album won't have as long of a shelf-life as it will to other people who are fans of this style, and for them it should definitely suffice. Edit: Am I getting a little bored? yyeeaah probably Edit 2: This is why you don't write about anything before you've even listened to it. Idk if I'll spin this again but I'll relisten to some tracks in a bit. Definitely gets more early DIMLIM-esque in the second half although I suppose my earlier comments still hold some water. The best moments I reckon are the first two tracks by a country mile, or that one just gets exhausted of this kind of music when it's not top shelf in what it's doing. Anything further I'll suppose I will write in my 2019 ratings list. -

This is literally what the gya's on tanuki thinks, and is also very possible. -
1 pointBecause I have no life, here have a small list of visual kei artists available for listening over spotify. Some have full discographies some only few albums or singles. there are also instances on several artists from all over the world being grouped together on one page, because of shared name. What is spotify? - to put it short, a digital music streaming service. It comes in two flavors - free with ads, and paid via subscription, with no ads and few useful perks. Sign up, log in, most likely download their application to your computer or mobile and you're set. Isn't that piracy? - no it's completly legal and artists and/or their label (we know how that goes...) are getting paid for each listen. For the start I cut this list into two categories. First one is the bands that retain their japanese song tags even on spotify - for all purists who want their last.fm scrobbles accurate Amber Bullet Angelo - mixed with different artists Anli Policino Annie's Black Black Gene For the Next Scene - mixed tags BUCK-TICK - region locked Calmando Qual Capella - mixed with different artists Cløwd CULT the Movie D - ??? they used to have few albums, like Vampire Saga there, but it seems to be gone now. Perhaps region locked. Daizy Stripper Das:Vasser Fixer - several different artists mixed together on that page girugamesh - mixed tags GOLDEN BOMBER Gossip GPKISM Grieva - romanized name, but correct song tags Insanity Injection Kamijo ラヴェーゼ (Labaiser) La'veil MizeriA Liv'ert L-Lotus- Lost Ash lynch.

Another problem would be actually finding the music, physicially or digitally lol, most would be hard to find to even listen to. -
1 pointKizu and Virge seems to be wassup atm I've also been recommended DIMLIM by ppl whose music taste I trust, but haven't gotten around to listening to them yet.
-
1 pointMy guess is that they will come up as a formal band after those gigs. The bad part is having to wait basically till the middle of the year to see what happens

Kou just confirmed it's a time limited band, unfortunately. Although that doesn't always mean they don't intend to keep on playing together, iirc Memento Mori started out as a time limited session band as well. -

"いつも入ってるスタジオとバンドとはべつにちょっとしたライブでる。年内。" "I will be having a live with a different band from the one I usually go to the studio with. Sometime during this year" From Mei's Twitter. Just a session band, but still... ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN. Still curious about his actual new band. I guess we won't see or hear anything from them this year at least. -
1 pointOh wait, I remember now... But, maybe their next release will sound more amazing Looking forward to listen to their new release... it can be more worse or even be more amazing.
