D will release a new LIVE DVD called ~D TOUR 2018 「Deadly sin」Grand Final　2018.12.21 at 豊洲PIT~ on april 12. *https://twitter.com/GCR_official/status/1108701439256195072/photo/1

Asty will release their third single titled 『もふもふラビット』(Mofu mofu rabbit). They will hold a mini one man live on 2019.05.15 and also have their second one man at Tsutaya O-West on 2020.01.03. They will also produce an MV for 「かごめ唄」(Kagome Uta).

Your basic earphones are going to be a left and right speaker, or "stereo" I believe: 2.0 5.1 is centre, front left and right, back left and right and then bass, as far as I'm aware. Think surround sound and something cinematic, or your average pair of gaming headsets these days.

sup bro how are u

The second song 「ゴミはゴミ箱へ」has been released from 2019.03.09. The third song 「卒業」 has been released from 2019.03.16. The last one has not yet been decided but will be released on 2019.03.23.

🐰Tracklist: 🐰 1.もふもふラビット (Mofumofu RABBIT) 2.未来予報 (Mirai Yohou) 3.DAYBREAK https://crosscat.shop-pro.jp/?pid=141597244 It's odd that they announced a show 10 months in advanced, but good for them I guess 🐇

Pretty sure it's just "rabbit" especially with the rabbit look going on (plus it's almost Easter! an easter-inspired release, that's a first!)

I survived another year. Only 3 more years till I reach my desired age.

How about...this album pales in comparison to the output on Hallelujah? Honestly, some hooks were great, but holy shit -- Yusuke cannot top the songwriting on Hallelujah or Zeitgeist, no matter how much he screams.

My point was that all these soliloquies about bandmen and the community having to denounce Kisaki from the community like a leper who ordered national socialist paraphernalia in the mail completely ignores the fact that in Japan and in the vk scene it probably doesn't work like that. And I wasn't referring to Kisaki's past at any point by the way, but rather to the widespreading hazing and abuse that is not even widespread but referred to in numerous interviews including members of DeG and The GazettE just to name some of these indie nobodies spreading harmful unsubstantiated tanuki rumours, bits of which you can find from this forum. If anything even close to the shit that's in these stories came out involving someone in the American showbiz industry, they'd be goners or at least caused a polemic of such magnitude that we already have with the me too movement and so on; and then you add to this that in Japan you just don't sell out your elders because their gya came out on the supreme justice court of twitter, especially ones that has given a start to a number of people in the scene. God knows what kind of stuff is going in the background too with the father of the child and so on. The pics are about as incriminating as you can get and my knee jerk reaction is to hope the child will be involved with none of these people in the future, but the legal procedures are messy especially when it involves messy people, and if you think anyone at 100% is voluntarily involved with kisaki then godspeed to u fam

Ami Kusakari of sakanaction is pretty good. I had to google her name tbh, but off the top of my head she's probably one of my favorites.

there are a lot of bassists that i love: Toshiya Reita Aki(SID) Hati(9gbo) Masa(Nokubura) yuchi(Sukekiyo)

Not really VK but Cö Shu Nie's bassist Shunsuke Matsumoto (松本駿介) does some absolutely gnarly things I've never heard on a track before. Bump asphyxia and supercell, those songs have absolutely wild bass work.

I think a lot of people here, including myself lol, don't really understand how all this stuff works in Japan in the vk scene especially also in relation of the general public in Japan. Afaik, vk is already perceived as the last refuge for people totally unfit for society, an whether some bandoman is guilty of this and that over there is not really something to cause much attention, probably because the perception of the vk is pretty much true and all these dudes are just really shitty when it comes to treating both women and each other, I mean just look up stories of how they treated the vocalist from Screw back in the day and imagine if something like this came out involving some lamestream band in the west, like that could pretty much be the end of everyone involved; and this is only the beginning, like I think we've already heard tons of stories of really dodgy stuff which while shocking to people in the west accustomed to a totally different kind of culture and conduct, especially when it comes to regarding an elder statesman of the scene like ki$aki. This is an underground music culture of rejects that had a flash in the pan moment 20 years ago that brought it to the surface, which while an important moment it for sure didn't change the general makeup and reality of the scene, which is a large prostitution racket ran by yakuza and horny guys wanting to play shitty rock 'n roll to a fanbase consisting of people with as many issues an the bandguys themselves. And to add to this I think everyone knows the Japanese think we are joke and that some gaijins are rustled is literally no concern of theirs, unless you're willing to fuck or buy them some chrome hearts of course.

hi☆

Can't wait for the new kisaki documentary "never leaving undercode" made by everyone's favorite vice.

His presence and technical finesse on PASSIO is amazing. He was always great but I feel that he’s gotten even better since MUTANS.

Yuchi from Sukekiyo

Been very much into a couple of Xülthys' projects lately. One-man black metal band that nailed the music, lyrics and imagine a lot. Great, dark and moody music and really cool pictures and cover arts. There's something really mystic about the pictures. Reminds me of old pictures of a secret cult of something. Bašmu https://basmu.bandcamp.com/ Girtablullû https://girtablullu.bandcamp.com/releases Flešš https://rawflesh.bandcamp.com/releases Really impressive stuff IMO. Dark, grim, atmospheric, raw. Really got everything.

Do i need to say more? Miya DA BASS QUEEN HANDS DOWN.

kenjirou murai ofc ni~ya (nightmare) naoki (jinkaku radio) also signal bassist could become one of my favorites, but now it never gonna happen...

i really really really dig kenjirou murai's style, i think his playing's definitely one of my favorite parts of cali gari's music

unf yukke from mucc, only because of his slap bass. if anyone knows any other (vk) bassists who do slapping please let me know codomo dragon has some videos of men-men teaching bass in their songs. these have some slapping

I’ve always really dug how Reita plays, even tho I’m not that big on Gazette tbh. Something about his style is really cool to me.

For bass players, I enjoy listening to Rame from Vidoll/BGFN and Jasmine from Versailles (RIP). Both bring out great music and sick beats. Also, liked Yuuto's catchy bass playing (Screw, Liraizo).

Koichi from mejibray definitely know how to slap a bass. Hisame from grieva made some very creative and catchy basslines on many tracks,and of course, Toshiya from diru, he's brutal.

For some reason I'm really attracted to stylish/stylized covers featuring only band members so here's a batch reflecting that. BUCK-TICK - 悪の華 BOØWY - BEAT EMOTION Laputa - 私が消える Madeth gray'll - Lucifer ～魔境に映る呪われた罪人達と生命の終焉～ SOFT BALLET - DOCUMENT Might come back here later and make another post with my fave pieces of artwork not featuring actual musicians, lol.
