  1. EDIT: Realised now that I might have misunderstood the topic, but w/E

    nah u understood it perfectly, thanks for sharing!

     

    This'll sound cliche as hell but let me the first to say Dir en grey. Akuro no Oka, Zakuro, Hotarubi, Mushi, Undecided, Glass Skin, Namamekashiki, Ware, Yame Tote, Vanitas... is really redundant citing them but fuck.

    dir en grey do ballads like nobody else...and i mean NOBODY else. theres no touching the acoustic break in undecided, the bassline in zakuro, the drumming in ware yami tote and the solo in vanitas & mushi.


  2. sorry for the gross title, i couldn't think of another way to sum up the topic. there's a thread similar to this for songs but bands are a different matter imo!

    envy came up on my skramz playlist on spotify and i realized that there had not been one instance that i've listened to them in the past 3 years and not had some strong emotional reaction. its not always that they move me to tears (they often do tho lol), but they put me in another place mentally. i want to get 2 envy related tattoos, and it recently dawned on me that they've gotten me through some fucking rocky years and moments. their music is so emotional but it never makes me sad, there's something so lovely about envy that i can't describe in words but it has really impacted how i view things tbh. chain wandering deeply is the most played song in my itunes library.

    deadman are similar, i've only been listening to them for around 7/8 months but i can't watch live footage of deadman without being hysterical because deadman soundtracked the worst of my depression. i managed to dissociate from everyone in my life but the only person i connected to was mako, in the most cliche emo teen way i felt that he understood my pain and he was the only person that i could talk to really. i dont feel much of this anymore, but i refer to him as an angel because i feel as if he held my hand through everything. moumoku no hane to woshi wo te ni and additional cause for sorrow give me chills with every listen and i can barely listen to doris kara tegami because the lyrical content is honestly too emotionally charged and vaguely triggering for me.

    personal anecdotes and sentimental cheese aside, im curious as to what bands that you feel a strong emotional connection to?  is there a band thats helped you get through some difficult moments in ur life or some shit? this thread is kind of dumb and mopey but its always fascinating what a personal connection we make to the music that matters to us so i wont judge ya hehe


  3. in todays #sadgirlsclub news im currently having an intense depressive breakdown thats *Gasp* soundtracked by lycaon. no, not deadman, not kagerou, not dir en grey, not sugar, not emmuree its fuckin LYCAON out of all bands

    on a less melodramatic note i love the lyrics to SHADOW, they're simple and pretty cool. after reading the translation to kesshou hana i was sold on yuuki's ability as a lyricist, but i still wouldnt consider myself a lycaon fan lol they're just too inconsistent.


  4. -comes to start drama over my shade in the disbandment news threads after the constant shady statuses/comments etc-

    i dont take visual kei personally and im confused as to why other people do. i love to roast people's favs for their reactions, which probably isnt a good thing to do but in a scene thats full of gossip, bickering, drama, hair dye, constant disbandments etc what do u expect lol. the japanese fans dont care, but western fans will roar, cry and riot if someone dare talk about their beloved bandomen sama or honmei band in a bad way.

    thats why roasting mejibray is hilarious, and i love/hate mejibray and at the end of the day they're a pretty cool band but the members are soooo much fun to make fun of. shoutouts to the fans who laugh along with the jokes instead of weeping as everyone will have their opinions, and no matter how u feel theres no need to ever get ur panties in a bunch over light hearted comments.

    i cant tell anyone not to take it personal, music is so intensely personal. i just find roasts to be fucking hilarious most of the time, some people think they're needlesly negative but even users like herpes shit talking my fav bands makes me laugh. thats what visual fans dont understand, take a break from the computer, ur bands aren't meant to last nor do they care about anyone from the western fandom's imput unless they're making big bucks off u.

    tl;dr: enjoy urself visual kei isnt that serious

    -rant over-
