Been ages since I last posted here (not exactly the self-pic taking type xD)... got a new shirt, yay~
 

Official details on the album release: PROJECT DARKAGE
Summary:
Special limited edition is ¥10,800. It has the main album, two DVDs (one of them only having one music video, the rest having other stuff, so kind of unnecessary), and two A4 sized books.
Second DVD has a 13th anniversary documentary, DEUX music video, OMINOUS lyric video, making of “DOGMA” (music video), and all the album trailers. One of the A4 books will be a photo book, the other will just have a bunch of text.
Not-special limited edition just has one DVD with a DOGMA music video, for ¥4,320. Regular edition has nothing special and is ¥3,300.
My thoughts:
Since there will be a lyric video for OMINOUS, it looks like it won’t be some outro track. We haven’t had an album end with an actual song since DIM; looks like one of my wishes will be coming true. ;D
Also, I don’t think the GazettE has ever made a title track for an album.
I think the prices are pretty ridiculous. I think the only one that’ll be worth the money is the super expensive one, actually, so I’m saving up for that one.
And what would a Seimeisen post in the news section be without artwork?

ClearVeil and Canzel are the first to come to mind. Hoshi no House is great and UNiTE have a great sound but they're not the same as Canzel as a whole. As for ClearVeil I don't think there's been a band even remotely similar to them. I miss Saki's voice. The vocalist of Carat is kinda annoying, at least in certain songs.
I also really miss Eimy and Pizzcato. The vocalist, forgot is real name, was so different and I liked that.
Others: Pure Q&A, Kazoku, Kisnate (before all the member changes), Kamikaze Shounendan. Probably others I'm not thinking about but there's a few.

Canzel - A ROUND E.P.V.

D'espa really shook me because I was addicted and starting to listen to them and BAM, they disbanded right in the middle of that...
 
For now, I can list DELUHI and Versailles too.

What bands you think should do at least a day revival and you miss them so much?
 
I'll start with MoNoLith, my fav jrock band~
 
EDIT: Since you're saying a lot of bands, I'll say more XD

do one
 

Nightmare hasn't been doing it for me for many years now but Hitsugi's side band Gremlins was a pleasant surprise, I hope he keeps releasing new stuff for them. 

How about a musical theme? (This sounds lamer than I intended it to be) Anything from musical adaptions to movies, to actual musicals performed on stage.

You all forgot a classic:
 

 
Seriously, we probably need a thread for this.

Wake up my children.

Versailles and BLACK CAT are asleep. How peaceful 

Here we'll discuss urban legends and our opinions about them, even find out about ones we haven't heard of yet.
 
 
The killer in the back seat:
 
Basically you have a woman who's driving and she's alerted by another car or truck driver but pushes off the warning. She drives home only to find out that the reason the other driver was flashing his lights towards her was to ward off the passenger/killer in the back seat. 
 
There aren't many American urban legends that are interesting. 
--------------------------------
Urban legends in Asia:
 
Tomino's Hell (Japan) -
 
This legend comes from the book, The Heart is Like a Rolling Stone (心は転がる石のように), written by Yomota Inuhiko. Supposedly, anyone who reads the poem aloud and not in their mind will suffer a horrible fate from death to inexplicable actions. The poem is also said to be excruciating, painful, dreadful and hard to read due to the sheer intensity of the imagery that one develops from the read.
Some websites and users say that it's best to read in Japanese as opposed to the translation for various reasons. 
 
Teke Teke (Japan) -
 
A young school girl, sometimes called Kashima Reiko, was bullied by her schoolmates. One day, near the train station tracks, a friend decided to put a cicada on her in which she frightened and fell on to the oncoming train tracks. Unaware of the shinkansen (the world's fastest train), her body split in half resulting in death, all due to a cruel joke done by her friends.
Now her upper torso roams the train tracks late at night, praying on victims and using a scythe to kill those who aimlessly walk throughout the location of the tracks, slicing them in to the same shape that her body was in on the day her "accident" happened. 
Various websites/blog authors have stated that her speed is equivalent to the train that killed her. 
 
*A movie was also made to accompany the urban legend. (2009)
 
 Sesame Seed Skin Cream (Korea) -
 
A woman was worried about her skin since it was noticeably getting wrinklier as she was aging and desperate to try any method to get her skin back to the natural. The woman had heard from a friend that if you are to bathe in sesame seeds,they'd help your skin convert back or at least reduce the aging process. When she had tried the process, it took a turn for the worse as she didn't come out of the bathroom for a long period of time. Worried, her mother attempted to check on her but was constantly told, "just a minute," after waiting long enough, the mother had entered the bathroom to be shocked by what she had seen.
The sight was her own daughter picking at her skin with a sharp toothpick as she tried to remove said seeds that attached themselves deep into her skin.
