Yeah, I guess

 

How about Riku?

 

Misery is Nothing and Lovers are my faves. Everything else was alright, I guess.

This album just screams out 'bland'. So does his next album. And his work in Seremedy.

 

I used to be sort of a fan of Yohio, but now all he does is make me snore. His music reminds me of American emo/scene/screamo bands that no one really gives a fuck about. At least I like Heartbreak Hotel, it's pretty catchy. I can't believe he has a fucking Vocaloid too...

I also really loved this single, it's given me hope for Kamijo's solo career. I hope his future releases are as good as this one, maybe even better. So far, Symphony of the Vampire is kinda average compared to this.

 

Louis - This totally fits Kamijo's sound, it sounds so badass~ The PV is amazing, and at the time, I didn't really know Kamijo all that good, so this was a really good first impression.

Grazioso - It was nice, and the length didn't really bother me that much. I liked the music box theme that went with it. ^^

Gensou Trianon - I like the sound of this one, very Jrock-ish. Sounds very beautiful.

 

Overwall, I really enjoyed this single. Although Symphony of the Vampire wasn't as memorable, I hope more of Kamijo's songs are more memorable like this one.

Yes.

 

Do you like mainstream bands?

Sloppy joes.

Kira.

 

Eroguro or Oshare Kei?

Good God - Korn

 

How are you feeling at the moment?

Vidoll~

Banned because you like some of the same shit I do. ♥

Swept off my feet and bearnapped cuz I wanna know what being bearnapped is...kidnapped by a bunch of bears (animals or bearded gay men???). xD

 

What are your thoughts on oshare kei?

1. Megaromania

Metis Gretel....ehehehe....;w;

Irokui

Da'vid Shito:aL

Malice Mizer

X JAPAN - Forever Love

8/10 because I think it says 'Cenation' and it makes me think of watching wrestling with my family.

I can't believe no one has brought up Gara from Merry.

 

He's a huge fanboy of Dir en Grey, specifically Kyo. (And he's also a huge fan of Kiyoharu too)

• He started off as a Diru roadie, and Kyo basically became his "senpai", giving him advice when he became a musician and basically forming a bond with him.
• Merry covered Diru's song Schwein no Isu for the album, Crush! -90's V-Rock Best Hit Cover Songs-.
• Gara appeared as guest vocals for one of Kyo's solo songs, I think it's Sukaporutoruno 'Kiyomizudera Porno Type'.
• Kyo produces Merry under his label Firewall Div.
• Gara and Kyo posed together in one issue of Massive.

Ah sweet! She's a drag queen and she sounds really nice. *_* Kinda makes me think of an old-timey Kaya.

 

She also likes to speak out against the government and war, since she experienced it herself. Now that's my idea of a badass.

That's a pretty weird lookin' poster. Who knows how this performance will go...;w;

I think this thread should be locked now that they've actually disbanded and have moved on to other bands.

This is probably one of the most craziest things I've read about visual kei bands. I really wish the best for Yuki.

My first visual kei band. May they rest in peace. ♥

The name's Dyxanadu. I'm also known as Bardie.

 

I'm kinda new-ish to the visual kei scene, been a fan for about a couple of years now, but don't really consider myself an expert or anything. I just really like how the whole thing works, it's so crazy sometimes. Although most visual bands do look nice, I'm not in this just for the looks, I do care about the music too. As long as they sound good, then they're cool.

 

My first visual kei band was Megaromania, may they rest in peace. I also like MERRY, Moi dix Mois, Metis Gretel, Versailles, Dir en Grey, Lin -the end of corruption world-, KISAKI Project, etc. As of recently, I've started listening to bands such as Phantasmagoria and X JAPAN. I like some oldies too, such as Da'vid Shito:AL and Malice Mizer. I tend to listen to indie bands more, yet I'm also now trying out mainstream bands as well.

 

I have a growing collection of VK items such as photosets, chekis, and magazines mostly purchased from people selling them on Tumblr. *_* I haven't attended a single VK concert, which depresses me, and I want to learn Japanese, partially to be a bit closer to the VK bands I like, to know what they're saying. ;w; After all, I've been very interested in Japanese culture for as long as I can remember.

 

I've been on this forum on and off when randomly googling something, but now, I've been actually acknowledging it, and I think this may be a good place where I could make some VK friends. This seems like a nice place I guess, haven't been on a forum in a very long time. I'd like to know more people who are into visual kei, and just visual kei in general. I hope I have a good time here. ♥
