遠隔-silence-

Did anyone else notice that 99.999 is basically a medley of all their album intros except DISORDER and DIVISION? I can see why they left out DIVISION, because it is rather two mini-albums. But I see no reason to keep DISORDER out of it. He just could have said "disorder" once. Don't they like their first album?

For me it is somehow their best album since DIM. I didn't like DOGMA as much as I thought I would, since I really do like dark/heavy stuff, but I only listened to it twice. I listened to NINTH now several times and I feel like it has all the good elements from their previous works, and I think this is what they aimed for. If you listen to the intro, it has elements from all their album intros from NIL to DOGMA (couldn't find a hint to DISORDER, maybe one of you hears something).

I don't know if anyone of you can remember that German VK-Band, which was heavily influenced by D'espairsRay. They were kinda promising, but disbanded pretty soon. Just found out they reunited at the end of 2013. I don't feel as hyped as I did a few years ago, when I first discovered them, but I thought I might share, since some of you could be interested. Here's their FB-page, where you can also listen to some songs: https://facebook.com/public.infection

Second this, they are great!

Download of the songs: viewtopic.php?p=193671#p193671 2009.07.23 - 1st Demo Single 『陰我』 1.陰我 2010.10.29 - 1st Single 『Black Out』 2.脆く儚く果て無き刻 And three songs, which are probably unreleased: 狂気の箱 アウト　オブ　リーチ (out of reach) モノローグ (monologue)

This sucks big time.

Maybe this comes a little late and already was brought up, but I just realized the GazettE maybe used quotes from 3 different songs by Slipknot in their song VORTEX. I just don't think this is a coincidence, but neither am I blaming them for stealing or something. "Too tragic to stay with you" is the first line of the song "The Shape" "The only thing you really know about me is..." is out of the song "My Plague" "You can't take my soul away from me" is out of the song "New Abortion" Those three songs were even on the same album, so maybe a big coincidence, but I don't think so. It wouldn't be the first time that Japanese bands take their English quotes from American bands. I think mainly to avoid too much Engrish. As I said, no blaming. Just something I stumbled upon and found interesting.

I romanized those, because the lyrics that are around on the net are fucked up. They were only copied into romaji.org, but this translater sometimes skips some English lines and takes wrong readings of Kanjis. I also put them into romaji.org, but corrected them song by song, so this is actually some kind of work and not just a plain online-translation like the others you may stumbled upon.

Strange to see Shou playing drums without UnsraW's Yuuki on vocals. I hope at least their last live will be held.

Hope he gets better. This also means the release of their single DOLL will be postponed.

Same here. Can't imagine them to make an album full of songs like this. If this song really gets released and is all poppy, then I think it will just be this one song.

I think the song will keep to be this way. It's about Nao's child. The title of the song is ??????????手 (chiisana kimi no te), which means "Your Small Hands" in English. But that doesn't mean they get all poppy.
