Tsubasa was a good bassist, I hope i see him in the future in a another band.
All songs are composed by Issei. Who is composing the songs now?

that's true that it's realistic, but it being realistic doesn't take the shock or distraught away from fans nor does being realistic exempt you from being a dick. So saying it with the tone of "obviously it will happen, you should've expected this. Get over it" is really shitty for fans who were supporting them and really didn't see this coming (like I said, this one in particular seemed really sudden and out of nowhere). It's especially shitty to be told something like that if you are emotionally invested in the band and are hurting from this announcement.
So yeah, maybe you weren't intending to be a dick, but you certainly came off as one.
 
And yeah, we all know that VK is unstable, but you can't really assume that all bands decide to disband cos they suddenly lost motivation. There are many factors that as fans, we can never and will never know. Plus, Lux hasn't posted any information about it other than their last live details so there are even more unknowns than usual.

In celebration of the 20th anniversary since the formation of Matina and MIRAGE, KISAKI will hold BURIAL OF EPISODE-TOKYO- at Shinjuku (新宿) BLAZE on 2018-03-31.
 
MIRAGE will hold a one-day(?) revival, featuring original members AKIRA, YAYOI, and KISAKI, plus support guitarist A.O.I (SHAZNA) and drummer Matarou (魔太朗) (VANIRU). Session band Matina ALL STARS (魔帝那オールスターズ) will appear: V. Kouki (幸樹) [Mist of Rouge~DOUT (ダウト)] / G. ? / B. Enya Tomoyuki (塩谷 朋之) [Mist of Rouge~More] / D. TERO (テロ) [VIDOLL~†я i ￠к]. TOKYO YANKEES, THE DEAD P☆P STARS, Vasalla (覇叉羅) (one-day revival), KING, and Kra will also appear. Premium tickets include a t-shirt. All attendees receive a present. This marks [the beginning of?] MIRAGE's “burial” (meaning has not been revealed). KISAKI made some remarks about his “retirement.” KISAKI might have formed the new company LORELEI ENTERTAINMENT GROUP, though it doesn't seem to be a record label (yet).

蜘影 (Chikage) (ex-Megaromania) has been announced as the mystery guest player! Should've seen this coming as Megaromania performed the day before...
 

Mizaly has been announced that tomorrow he made an important announcement on his twitter account, maybe he form a new band!? Stay tuned, follow him and retweet please!
 
 

Today some fans who have been at Megaromania's Memorial Oneman Live at the Takadanobaba Club Phase (SOLD OUT) have confirmed that a new "memorial single" will be released on 31/7/2018 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the band.
 
 
 
 
 
A fan has posted the full set-list!
 
 

Oh, no.

Yes, my criticism was mainly on the vocals which I find flat...The instruments were better though.

tsubasa was a good bassist so im sad about this and issei's compositions were good...this a NO NO
i wonder whether they'll become more or less visual, tbh issei's simple drumming was holding them back but tsubasa's bass work added that toshiya-style complexity and made them like....new DEG kohai band potential.
 
interesting shake up overall

After their 2 man live with JILUKA in 11/9 , Ba.Tsubasa & Dr. Issei will depart from the band !
And the band will keep going to finish all the lives on the schedule with support member.

Kyouka said they've been in studio lately and he also posted a preview on some lyrics at twitter, but that's Kyouka after all, who knows. He seems to be very busy with daily instagram lives about shit nobody cares about instead.

FIXER new maxi-single "ARBITER" will be released soon
 
 

His clean vocals are nice, but at least we know they're not gonna stick to that permanently; like @itsukoii and a few others have said here, I think them not normally having clean vocals sets them apart from every other vk band, which is great. We need more bands that break away from that mold.

they went from unlistenable garbage to slightly better, not as stinky garbage! some cool guitarwork here and then, liked the solo too.
congrats... but dimlim and nokubura did it better

The guitarist is super cute.

I mean, there’s nothing here that makes this exponentially worse than the average, dime-a-dozen VK band, but that’s the problem; it’s not even bad enough to be noteworthy. 
 
Their nationality certainly plays no part in the mediocrity, as there are tons of VK bands FROM JAPAN that are bland and forgettable. So holding that against them is unfair. Hopefully they stick around long enough to learn and grow. 

tbh nothing is worse than

Trying to buy items from David's international web shop, but they only accept bank transfer, and my bank is trying to charge a $45 fee to send it.
 
Anyone have any tips or suggestions for getting the money over without paying such a large fee?

Oh yes~ I will be in Tokyo around this time, so I definitely hope I can go~ Starwave lives are always really fun^o^
