Nice, I got R since I got the L version for 'Her' (looks neater on the shelf.)

I've only seriously listened to kpop for 2~3 years, but it's a great time to start listening. I get more excited over kpop concepts than vk ones nowadays. Today's producers are killing it (figuratively).

Yeah I used to be like... 'MAN I'LL NEVER LISTEN TO KPOP' but honestly... the music has gotten pretty relevant. Like i can see how they have branched so much out of Korea. Plus, I feel guilty. like I didn't realize how much work these people put in to making this their life. Extensive training for years before even getting the chance to get a contract and even then it could be more years before you actually debut. And then even when you do it's just a bigger competition hahahahahahahaha. 

NOT TO BARGE IN BUT.... Yea like 8 years ago I thought Kpop was dumb and worthless and all that, but there are some really genuinely talented groups out there. And more and more members are getting in on the writing and creative process of their releases. It's not just generic factory pop. 

Well I didn't send them there. In fact I didn't even know some of them knew about MH except one friend which is fine. But they weren't exactly saying good things so i'm just like >____>

I mean my friend was fine... but other people I'm like haha MH is it's own unique place. 

my post was a joke, refer to Fight Club movie.

do whatever you want, talk of MH to which you want lol

Congratz!

some of those portrait are really nice,  continue this way

@xrikowow thank you so very much. I really appreciate the compliment and encouragement! I of course have a lot of improvements to make, but what fun is anything if there is no room to grow and challenge yourself

Was never really a fan, but the FREEDOM e.p. was good in my books, all three songs (I may be biased due to my inconditional love for Enter Shikari, but I digress...) and I do agree that wipeout is far, far below standard. all the remixes sucks aswell.

@chemicalpictures Honestly i thought FREEDOM was a pretty good move as well. I liked Rou Reynolds' contribution for sure. I feel like musicians really need to collaborate more often. It's really a good move with cross promoting. But WIPE OUT... yeesh. 

Yeah, like "Wipeout" reminds more ZION than is more original. I like them a lot but I refrain sounds very "American" and pop (of course they have always been metal/electro/pop but that one was more, much more into pop). I hope their other songs won't be like that.
Also FREEDOM was cool, Rou Reynolds' influence was noticeable, what was... really interesting and amazing!

really cool? never hit's the 30~40??!

Netherlands hit 30~38 a lot in summer. but only for a few days. never for weeks.

We normally hit up to 30, reaching 35 is extremely rare. And it's not so humid.

The coast hits 25-28 in summer and it's quite windy.

Tokyo is too near the sea. That's why it's so humid.

But then Chile is pretty cool country.

But i totally hate winter... (-_-)
Can't get used to it... anything below 0 is just too cold for me. 

I'm really happy that this year winter here in Netherlands is warm. 

not much snow, not much cold.. but we have too much rain XD

@Peace Heavy mk II

Lack-co. is gonna be the one band he has where they have a 10 year anniversary live. Watch. 

@The Reverend

Yeah CPS was my favorite too. The music was really unique and I felt like he really used his vocals to their full potential. If I'm not mistaken though... their disbandment had more to do with their drummer????? I wonder if CPS woulda BEEN THE ONE had that worked out differently. Tenten looks like he hasn't aged... but I know he has some health problems and he's def getting older.

@The Reverend Not only VKing but I would say he is also a Vk chameleon, he can make different music styles in different bands without losing his potential.

@The Reverend @togz I'm still haven't pick a favorite between MHBI and CPS, but for favorite line up, would be MBHI; most favorite songs, would be CPS. I love to death ベラミー, In My Dream, 溺れる魚 and My Harlot Broker, those a rare gems that you can no longer find into the recent vk scenes.

@yakihikoMY HARLOT BROKER AND BELLAMY WERE MY JAM OMG. When it comes to VK I feel like you and I have very similar tastes which is kinda rare for me to find anymore. haha

They played Sky Crawlers and I'm so content.

Also FABLED NUMBER had to have been the most hyped show I saw the whole time I was there... after Fear and Loathing. I had to watch that shizz from outside it was so packed. Azami was really great, PRAISE was funny (or their costumes for halloween were) and Her name in blood was just as dope as I remember but part of me think their fan base is dropping????? I missed some stuff due to weather and timing (other shows i mean) and the two shows I had booked to do photos for fell through. But I made A LOT of friends... and improved my Japanese A LOT. 

Nice, sounds great to check Kobayashi voice live. Do you find it different from the studio versions?

Try to see RAZOR or LACK-CO live or instores, mostly to see Tetsuya and Tenten

Also, grab if possible all those LACK-CO unshared songs and their upcoming full album o/

That is amazing  

He was like "OH! SUGOI!!!" Clapped his hands with the sudden realization who I was and proceeded to high five me and then he gave me the setlist with out me even asking cuz I came out all this way lol 

''why''

I don't have anything constructive to say, sorry, please disregard my comment

I would ask if they honestly feel that their current music direction is the best option for the band right now.

Not stuff I'd ask in an interview hmmm. bummer.
