Pretty sure the "ass" is in reference to a donkey (ie, jackass, etc.) It's like the saying "the wolf in sheep's clothing".

Updated original post with lineup~

Found an official twitter - it appears to be the new band of Ba.まろ (maro) (ex-canary → Objet De Neige → Honey Killer → ノア → w/c同盟 → 【_Vani;lla】 → L&DS → 週末ディストーション L&DS.)

Plus, making an extra thread would most likely cause confusion and the threads will have to be merged anyway. So just adding a new reply is a timesaver really~ As for band info, that can easily be found by googling the band and finding stuff on vkdb, Wikipedia, etc.

And you know this how???

MARY RUE will perform on November 7 at Shinjuku LOFT. A 4-song demo CD was also distributed at their 10/8 live:

this is so fucking great, how did shape shifter even happen

me every fucking day and sometimes

As I'm doing with my MERRY scans, I would like to preserve Marco's photos, whether they're artist photos, photosets, etc., especially since they're a smaller band. Being a more unknown group, they may "vanish" over time as their merch/special photos are especially rare, and the only thing left are low-quality pics uploaded by vk blogs who frankly don't give two shits about them. Like with MERRY, I made a tribute blog about Marco to preserve their pics and spread the word about them at the same time - sadly no one cared (it's Tumblr, not a real shocker anyway), so I was left with the choice to shut it down as it was starting to become a hassle as I ran two other blogs. Now, here I feel I can post their artist photos and my scan collection since they're slightly better known here. ^^ Just a warning tho, my scan collection is rather short, since their photosets are extremely hard to come by since they're limited to preorder bonuses and no one auctions them off or anything ;w;
