Dressed up for Halloween as a cheap Ai from gulu gulu. I actually felt really beautiful lol

Quick, someone tell Hizumi it's okay to make heavy music again. Get him a copy of Dogma and Ninth ASAP.

Deviloof will hold their first Europe tour "BEYOND PROOF" in Spring 2020.

If any fellow Monochromites are coming, feel free to hit me up~ (edit: there was some confusion on the final date for the Budapest gig, it turns out it's 6 May and not 7)

I love that they went for clean vocals again. I love their brutality but I missed that cleaner sound from their early days a bit. This is what I was hoping for.

https://lmusic.tokyo/news/feature/interview170 pretty cool interview with kei, even using the translator. Apparently their three albums since becoming a duo are a trilogy, with planetary secret representing the birth of life, puer et puella expresses living this life and love and sin division is the fall in sin Also he will sing on some songs and it will be a pretty experimental one FREAKING COOL

For some reason, I thought this was referring to the other More lol

I met royalty!!

this basically. in retrospect everything they did up to wtd was impeccable with a fair share of random mistakes, but tbh there's no one in the scene right now capable of doing things right on the same level Deg did it back than.

So this is gonna be a lot to explain and I never thought I'd be going to MH for this, but my partner's mom is having her friend stay over for a while. He's in his 50's, and he thinks because he's older than me, he can parent me, treat me like a child (he even refers to me as a child!) and blatantly disrespects me and oversteps my boundaries. I don't think I can reason with him, since he acknowledges he's an asshole, and is proud of it. He's also very stuck in his boomer ways, as he thinks it's ok to hit children and animals. He's also in general kinda violent, and since he's got here, my partner's mom has been acting more violent, as she's been starting fights, and threatening to hit the cats and calls them mean names now. I'm actually afraid both of them would try to get violent with me and my partner, since they believe in spanking, and still see us as children. He also misgenders me and can't even be bothered to remember my god damn name. I'm always referred to as "what's his name". Aimi isn't that hard to remember, but ok. Oh, and I can't just up and leave, I don't leave this place for another few months, so I'm kinda stuck with him until one of us leaves. In short, he's a piece of shit who treats me like a child, and it's not my say in whether he leaves or not, and my partner's parents really like him. So... what the fuck do I do? I can't leave yet (I move out in a few months) so I'm pretty much stuck with this trailer trash piece of shit, who I'm supposed to have sympathy for because his partner died. Should I even attempt to tell him he's overstepping my boundaries? Oh and a little bonus, both of us are disabled, but he thinks my disability is invalid because I'm younger than him.

Oh, then I'm an idiot lmao.

He pulls this shit live all the time, and honestly the changes he makes sometimes stink more of Lars Ulrich style laziness more than anything else. – not playing the double bass pattern in the last few bars in the chorus of Red Soil – skipping the hi-hat accents in the verses of Audience Killer Loop – whatever the fuck he’s trying to do in the Shitataru Mourou intro Hell, wasn’t he even not bothering to play the rimshots in Ware Yami Tote? Changing parts/ad-libbing is one thing. Just not bothering and simplifying is another.

At their sold-out Oneman on the 27th, they announced that they will release their first full album in 2020. Not sure when that'll be, but that's great news!

Finally watched The Babadook for this Halloween. Very good; it stems more from psychological distress than an horror entity IMO, but still a harrowing experience. Essie Davis was amazing!

The Ghost Galleon is the worst, but even that one is cool. 7/10 imo.

I think that if you want to confront him about it and you feel confident then you should at least try. You're gonna have to stay calm throughout the entire thing though since self proclaimed assholes love to argue. You can't change someone else's behavior for them though. I grew up with some family members who were aggressive and ignorant so I just avoided them at all costs. It wasn't an ideal solution or one that made me happy, but it was a lot better than actually interacting with them and I didn't have any other choice anyway. I just spent most of my time in my room and I never spoke to or looked at these people unless I absolutely had to. I wouldn't respond when they made stupid comments towards me, even if the comments were actually hurtful. I never confronted anyone because I was too afraid to. Now I sometimes imagine what it would've been like back then if I did confront them. I think that the only way it would've worked is if I played really nice and pretend to care about their feelings while coming to some sort of compromise, so they felt like they were getting something out of it too. That's high effort manipulation though, but if you don't mind doing something like that then it might be worth thinking about.

These aren't even different looks, they literally recycled the same costumes for each look, with only mild touchups for the Necromancer concept. Smh.

Didn't notice it's gonna be on streaming services. Nice.

I think it is good human neurosis

Its live footage not music videos

This is my first time doing something like this so it’s just for fun! I’m proud of myself even tho it’s a sloppy mess 😂

Hotarubi is my favourite song on MACABRE. I also really like Taiyou no Ao.

New babymetal album and bunch of stuff i wanted in my collection for some time. Gazette - Nameless Liberty photobook with rerecorded Juunanasai CD Gazette - Decade limited edition with 2 CDs Exist Trace - World Maker with DVD Babymetal - Metal Galaxy Uroboros- Zodiac Dadaroma - Dadaism #3 Dadaroma - Ii kusuri, warui kusuri Nocturnal Bloodlust - Grimoire Nocturnal Bloodlust - Omnigod Kizu - Kizuato A&B Kizu - Steroid A&B Kizu - Human Error B Kizu - Heisei B EDIT: Does anyone know why my picture is hidden? When i right click it and open in a new tab, it does redirect me to the picture on imgur. So the link is correct. No idea why it doesn't appear here.

Had the pleasure of seeing Acid Mothers Temple & The Melting Paraiso U.F.O. live last night in Budapest, great show. Kawabata is still the grand fuzz-guitar wizard. The floor was shaking and my ears are still ringing, it was worth every second. Total beautiful cosmic trip. And tomorrow night they're unexpectedly playing in my hometown Szeged (in the tiniest of venues lol), so you bet I'm taking a day off to travel there and check it out. A dream come true. ♥

hello emo girl here

Oh, I thought you meant the Rumina who keeps forming Luna Sea worship bands and then quitting them after 4 months

Meanwhile, new look!

🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ I was actually having a laughing fit during the shooting but somehow one of the pictures turned out kinda okay??

Kakeru looks fabulous.

👁👃👁 👄 -ヘヴェンズノベル- Also, they made the drummer cover his chin. Maybe just don't do up-skirt shots???

Coldrain came to my city before all of the mess the city got into. Show got postponed but I'm still glad they kept their promise to come!

They are doing this kind of stupid event again, where they think they are the best

When you’re just trying to get out of the &$#*ing rain...

If your grandparents don't know the furi does the vocalist have a shit fit?

Eating that flyer probably upset all 15 people who showed up at this live!! So RUDE!!!

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　x Hey guys. Since yesterday most of the bangyas are commenting about the 0.1g no Gosan x Mathilda drama. I don't know if rumors section is the right place to post it, since it's not a RUMOR, but i don't know anywhere else to do it lol I think many of you know that 0.1g no Gosan is a very polemic band. Their vocalist, Midorigawa Yuu is always chasing fans who are not doing the furi, or saying bad stuff about other bands. For example, he said to the fans don't go to shitty bands like Vexent., said POIDOL is a shitty band with a ghost-writer and also made fun of DOGinPWO (their senpais tho........). On June 28th 0.1g held a event where they intended to play with "minor" bands. One of these bands was Mathilda, a new band that just started their activities. What no one was expecting was that the vocalist Kuu would enter the stage holding a 0.1g no Gosan picture*. Then he smashed it and ATE it all. The fans were surprised and some of them scream in panic. But okay, the concert was over and no one said anything about that.......until yesterday. On yesterday's concert 0.1g vocalist stopped their song to talk about Mathilda. He said how pissed of he was for such shitty band smash their flyer (*actually it was not a flyer. it was a colorful print that Mathilda vocalist made by his own, so...) and said that if any of the 0.1g fans go to a Mathilda concert, the whole band would hate this fan forever, and don't talk to them on instore events and such anymore. In the end, he made all the fans scream "MATHILDA DIE!!!!!". If you look for opinions about that on twitter, it's very divided. But indeed, 0.1g is losing a lot of fans for their posture. In my opinion, first of all, who he think he's to say which bands the fans should go or not? "I WON'T TALK TO YOU ON INSTORES ANYMORE!!!1111" bitch how old are you? 7? the fans are PAYING MONEY for that. It's so stupid. Also, as mentioned, Mathilda didn't use a flyer that 0.1g useid their money to make. And is it THAT offensive? Mathilda vocalist is always eating stuff on their concerts, pizza, apples, and stuff because it's their concept. They choose 0.1g no Gosan picture fot that because IT WAS 0.1g EVENT. It was just a fuck'n performance. Can we also mention how problematic is to make your fans scream to SOMEONE TO DIE? Like......Jesus........ In my opinion the fans are also stupid tho. It's very funny that he's so pissed of, but he's always doing worse stuff to other bands.... So when it's with you you can't take it? HAHAHA I'm really rooting for Mathilda now and i hope they smash and eat Midorigawa next time lol What you guys opinion about that? #MathildaTeam

I highly believe I am asexual, but I would rather not label myself as anything other than myself — seeing as I bear no interest in sexual activity, I feel it's unneccesary to call myself anything –sexual at all or leap into any social construct regarding the matter. I am not sexually attracted to people, but more or less aesthethically. Surely, there are people I find immensely beautiful and alluring to look at, but I could never imagine myself sharing a bed with them for any other reason than actual sleeping. I grow uncomfortable when people touch me for extensive periods of time, and I had rather not even shake hands with people whom I have not known for at least a month or two. I do not know if these experiences are an extension of Asperger syndrome —they very well could be— as there are plenty of people on the autistic spectrum who have no problems with sexual activity and attraction whatsoever, or if they are two separate things altogether. I have had some boyfriends in the past, but I would always grow anxious the moment anything started to happen beyond kissing. Not wanting to have sex with these boys always lead to me being cheated on as I could not and did not want to please their physical needs. This has also lead me to not desire a relationship for myself, either. I do not know if I can ever see myself in a relationship. If I were to have sex at all in this life, I wouldn't have it before marriage. I need to be certain of the person, however it's always unclear whether you will be spending the rest of your life in the same relationship. This is conflicting and currently I am leaning toward not ever having sex at all, even in a potential marriage. Unfortunately it's difficult soloing life, especially with how darned expensive everything is nowadays. You can barely keep up a regular household with two individuals, let alone one. I find anything pornographic extremely distasteful and I bear quite the aversion against the openness of the matter of sex in this age. It is everywhere, and it makes me very uncomfortable and dirty. I find the human anatomy very aesthetic and interesting, and to see it being tarnished by sex is —in my eyes— very sad and abasing. Perhaps this is ironic in that case, but I could never see a penis as anything more than an organ meant for urinating, for instance, yet I find it a very beautiful organ. As for the view on Visual kei artists; as I said above, my attraction to some of them is purely based on aesthetic pleasure. Perhaps it is also why I am more or less attracted to so-called femine-looking men, with softer shapes and tones, that Visual kei is an attractive medium. I like pallidness, long limbs and extremities, and ethereal-looking creatures, I would say even androgynous. Anything that would seem to exceed humanity.

Let people figure out their own sexual identity for themselves, even if it means that they are wrong for a portion of their lives. You are robbing people of a chance at self-exploration because of your own personal beliefs, which is no different than high-minded religious zealots who try to rob the LGBT community of their chance at self-exploration because of their personal beliefs. This was a perfectly harmless topic about people sharing experiences and asking questions until you complicated it with your sectionalism. What others have to say or how others define sexuality outside of Monochrome Heaven is irrelevant to this point because no one here prompted you to take it to this extreme and no one appreciates it. And unless this topic is literally causing you to be unable to live with yourself, you'll survive avoiding this one topic on this forum. I would now like for this topic to return to a place where people can ask questions and figure out what they are for themselves.
