New look!
 
 

My question was always: why don't people love ネガ? For me, they were one of the most charismatic and emotionally sustained bands around, and in their legacy they still are. Both visually as well as musically. I could simply explain them with the song 'guilt trip' on the album GRAVE OF THE SACRIFICE, which is likely the most recommended album by them. I've had the privilege of hearing this track live and I still can't get over how far it reached within me. 
 
I think they stand out because being founded in 2004, there weren't that many visual kei bands around with this image, or at least not in the spotlights. Kotekote had somewhat died out at the time and the mid-2000's were a place for lighter visual kei music like your mentioned vistlip, GUILD, An Cafe, etc. — ネガ broke through that image with being rancid and edgy, and I think quickly took the limelight with their aestethics. And oh, they've had the pleasure of bringing one of the best drummers of visual kei deeper into the scene for as long as it lasted, I'm still sad Yuu left (although I can totally imagine him playing jazz-piano in some bar).
 
It hurts me to see how many people had and still have criticism on Jin's vocal abilities, however. There was a time when VANITAS was released, people were trashtalking him so much that he actually personally apologized on his ameblo for his performances on the album. But I love Jin, I love how lively he is, how bubbly of a character he has off-stage opposed of how he acts on the stage, how kind he is to his bands and fans. Not to mention, I love his music, simply put. For me, he is one of those guys who can undoubtedly cross that bridge toward someone's personal life-experiences and feelings.

the last one "Ether" refers to their new maxi single "ether", and I wonder whether other 4 elements refer to their forthcoming CDs

ベルカとストレルカ
 
I had hidden the knife into the desk.
It was for protecting oneself.
There was no intention of wounding someone.
I want you to believe.
Please don’t see me by your sad eye.
 
煙にまみれた数え歌
答えを探してた
僕は何処へ
 
綱がゆらゆら拍手する人
これが答えか？と太陽が僕を踏み付けがなりたてる
爪弾き  罵声       陶酔の舞台         顔を隠さず奏でる
 
傾く天井             数え歌
ベルカとストレルカ
僕は此処へ
 
ah鏡に映った踊るピエロが
あなたの涙を顔に刻むように歌う
 
僕に乗せられたリンゴが落ちる
 
濃くなる霧と月を眺め 呼吸を確かめていた
もう君は泣かないで      悲しみが募る雨に
僕は傘になろう
 
ah鏡を見つめて踊るピエロは
あなたの涙をガラスに摘むように願う
いつしか             空が晴れたなら
あなたと             二人で
 
 
 
BERUKA to SUTORERUKA

Among counting rhymes covered in smoke
I was looking for an answer
Where should I go?
 
The rope sways and people applaud
Is this the answer? I shout at the sun that bears down upon me
Black sheep, they jeer, a stage of intoxication where they perform without concealing their identity
 
A slanting ceiling and counting rhymes
Velka and Strelka
I came here
 
The dancing clown reflected in the mirror
Sings to engrave your tears upon his face
 
The apple hung upon me falls
 
I gazed at the moon with the thickening fog
To make sure you were breathing
Don’t cry any more, let your sadness become the heavy rain
I’ll be your umbrella
 
When I stare into the mirror
The dancing clown wishes he could take your tears away into the glass
When the sky clears without my noticing
I’ll be together again with you
