KARMA IS SHAKING RYO DID THAT

So the single is called 透明になった〇〇。 but I just got my copy and the CD is tagged as 透明 when I ripped it.. kinda weird! 

Alright so I decided to translate them anyway, so here they are:
 
Too all [MAD]ist
Delivering news like this to everyone who kept believing in us, and for us to not keeping our promise until the end is very hurtful to say the least.
These five years with Grieva is something that I won't be able to exchange for anything ever.
We managed to get great members, [MAD]ist's and lots of valueable friends.
We laughed a lot
We cried a lot
There's been a lot of stuff we've regret
And we've seen a lot of beautiful things
In all of this I managed to find my reason to live, and the place where I belong
Spending days as Grieva was nothing but happiness to me.
I wanted to protect it forever, but in the end I couldn't.
I'm terribly sorry.
 
I can't thank all of you enough.
Us actually existing for five years as band is all thanks to you.
For the remaining gigs, I want to express this feeling and create even more beautiful atmosphere than what we have been able to do so far,
therefore please stay with us until the very end
 
Grieva KYOUKI
 
Thank you for always supporting Grieva!
We started Grieva in 1st of july 2012, but 30th of december it has to come to an end.
To me, Grieva is like a family and the life I have built up. 
We've been troubled and thought a lot together
Smiling together everyday, trying to become a better Grieva together
Seeing fans getting happy because of us
Wondering how we're going to face new fans, how to get new fans
We've searched for answers for all these things together.
The fact that we managed to do all this, with all these amazing members is something I proudly boast about.
 
Five years is definitely not little time, and if all of you weren't here for us then nothing of this would ever be possible, and I also wouldn't have been able to grow as much as I have.
Thank you all so much.
The time we have left together is barely none, but
I want to give back the favor to each one of you during the remaining gigs.
If you think "Grieva was such a great band" when you're thinking back on us, then surely nothing will actually change and we'll continue to grow.
We'll keep on fighting until the very end, so please continue support us!
 
Grieva ROKU
 
Thank you for always supporting us.
From 2012 we've changed a lot, we said goodbye to members but still kept looking forward and doing activity. However, at 30th december this year we have decided to call it quits.
We're all very good friends and we've felt a lot of stuff together.
We've always encouraged each other so much, and to be honest, for the first time in my life I've thought "So this is what friends are!". 
I really think we managed to create one of the best bands.
If I'm going to be honest, had I not been invited to join Grieva at that time then me today would be very different.
These five years has been a rocky road, but because of that we have all been able to grow personally and as a band.
Being able to keep doing this for five years has been all thanks to you. Getting up on stage, seeing all of you has always made me think "this is my reason for living".
These five years has been the absolute best of my life so far.
I feel nothing but gratefulness because you made me be able to be this happy with my band, all of you, and all our staff.
Thanks for supporting us for five years!
There's not much time left but I want you all to come to our final gig and leave no regrets behind as we close up this band. We're going to do our best for every last show we still got up until then, so please come support us until the end!
 
Grieva HARU
 
It's been five long years, huh. Time goes fast!
I wonder if you're all mad when you're reading this announcement? Or maybe you're sad? Sorry for such a sudden announcement.
For me personally I could continue play in this band with these members for the rest of my life.
Every day we've had a gig I've been so happy.
A lot of you have told me "Grieva has saved me" and it always made me happy to hear. On the contrary, I think hearing those words have saved me in a way.
Being able to play bass in this band as Hisame, and having all of you fans has always made me so happy.
There's not much time left but we have a lot of gigs, let's enjoy them to the fullest together!
 
Grieva HISAME
 
This band Grieva is the band I've done most things in
The band I laughed with the most
The band I cried with the most
The band I thought "I am so happy" with the most
The band I've regret most things with
All of this as Yuugo from Grieva
And me as a person
Is something I thought I'd never experience.
And this is my fortune, in a life I thought nothing about me ever would change.
We've fought so hard together, done stupid shit together and discussed our dreams together.
It all comes to and end 30th of december.
Grieva has been active for five years, and it's been three years since I was invited.
I don't think if I'm the one to say this but in a good way it feels as if Grieva has combusted.
Either way Grieva will be Grieva until the very end.
None of us are on bad terms or anything like that.
If we all can treasure each day as it is and have fun together then I'll be happy. 
Feast your eyes on Grieva until the very end, if we're able to leave a mark on your heart forever then I'll be happy.
Sorry for everything ending.
Please support us until the very end.
 
Grieva YUUGO
 

That's great! Not a big fan of them but I'm happy that it isn't B7KLAN who's handling the tour, I'll still try to go if there's a gig in Paris or another city in France. Also looking forward for you to bring other bands in the future  

I hope the band is gonna be a lot different than Arlequin and Pentagon

What a weird look. It feels like they just bought a big box of used VK costume pieces and kind of awkwardly stuck them on over their street clothes...

Lmao those prices, the only purpose of that collab was to milking fans afterall

I hope they'll release new music in the future

He's a good singer to you ?
 

I think he did some wild stuff during live streams on twitter... and the wrist cutting thing during live lol this guy is known to be a mess 

the GazettE grew up pretty fast too.
 
Formed in 2002, first release "Wakaremichi", the 1000 copies sold very fast and 2nd press was released 2 months after
Major debut in 2003
2004, oneman live at Shibuya AX sold out (1500 tickets)
2006, tour final at Nippon Budokan
 
They also did Tokyo Dome which is a pretty big deal for a vk band but apparently it kinda flopped so.. 
 
 

He doesn't sound that bad during MRD to me but yeah he sounds better in the Peace & Smile Carnival Tour one. Maybe he was just sick or something? Especially that during this time they were touring and recording all the time. I guess he practiced a lot too

^ finally listened to their CD this weekend and imo they sound way better than i thought ;D
not that i probably would be like i need to buy every single one of their eventually upcoming CDs but still a good listen i definitely don't regret buying .

For anyone new to PLC or the PLC fandom/PLC lives in Japan, here's some general info about the band which you may find helpful.
 
PLC/Psycho le Cemu (Pronounced "Saiko-ru-Sheimu", and shortened to Saiko by fans/gya) is a five-member band from Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture. They formed in 1999 and it wasn't long before they gained popularity in the post-90s VK scene, landing them a major label contract and debut in 2003. Then, in 2005, Daishi was arrested and charged for using meth, and then the band soon went on hiatus. Unfortunately Daishi's arrest burned the band's dreams of playing Budokan, but unable to let this dream go, the members decided to reunite following their 15th anniversary in the hopes of still playing there some day.
 
Each member has a color and distinct character, and both are represented through costume and story concepts for each release.
 
Daishi (Blue) - The hero
AYA (Pink) - The girl
seek (Green) - The monster
YURA-sama (Yellow) - Warrior or mystic (Often depicted as being rich, noble, or egotistical)
Lida (Orange) - Sidekick or whatever is left over
 
You can find a general catalogue of their story and character concepts for each release here, almost up until their hiatus in 2005. (in Japanese) They reformed briefly in 2006 to perform a tour for the release of their Epilogue album, and then continued their hiatus status until 2009 when they toured to celebrate their 10th anniversary. Following another hiatus after that, they got back together for a 15th anniversary performance in 2015, before officially resuming activities that following September.
 
For the most part, their lives consist of playing their music before, between, and after skits or plays of each their story concepts. They also MC and tell jokes, often pointing fun at Lida, Yura-sama's big nose, or their (female) fans. Fans wear glow bracelets in their favorite member color(s). In the past, fans would also carry glow sticks in these same colors, but recently less fans are carrying them or have replaced them with light-up rings. Most of their songs have corresponding furitsuke, and new fans might find much of this furi difficult/overwhelming at first.
 
As far as stage positioning goes, despite being the leader and lead guitar, Lida takes the shimote position (audience left) while second guitar AYA takes the kamite position (audience right)
 
If you follow the fandom online, you'll notice that many fans and gya refer to other fans (and occasionally the members themselves) as Saiko Yarou (サイコ野郎) and the band as (最古). The former means something like "psycho punks" and the latter is a pun meaning "super old", seeing as both Lida and Daishi are already over 40. Each member also has their own nickname(s) online.
 
Daishi - D
Lida - リダ or リーダー (Leader)
AYA - アヤ or 彩 (AYA used to write his name with this character during their early career)
seek -シーク or  飼育 (a phonetic reading of "shiiku", literally meaning "breeding")
YURA-sama - 鼻様 (Hana-sama, or Nose-sama, because of his larger nose)

Nice look but the first one was better imo

Almost sure they are gonna annonce a new album there and I would love if they release a dvd of the 15th anniversary live cause the setlist was bomb

Wasn't expecting this kind of sound from a band with Mashiro

All of you guys pretending that ViViD never existed nor that their progress was way too fast for acts of such calibre...
 
Lol.
 
@Kiryu999NIL was their major debut album (with King records AFAIK, which technically makes Cassis their very first major debut)
