THAT'S WHAT'S SO WEIRD ABOUT IT. LIKE THEIR MUSIC IS FUCKING GREAT

i think we've reached the pinnacle of vk band names

Yall have a new contender! REVLOW Ba.塁 (Rui)

Here's another fuccboi to add to the list. REVLOW has announced that they have paused activities after firing their bassist, 塁 (rui) as of August 5. Apparently, it was discovered on July 29 that Rui was involved in many anti-social acts that corresponded with recent criminal acts in various Tokyo restaurants. The band has since cancelled the rest of their live dates, including their first oneman show scheduled for August 29. The release of their CD, "'REVLISM-EP" (scheduled for Aug 23) has also been rescinded. http://revlow-official.com/news/0/36652/

I remember watching this back in the day on adult swim... good times, good times. The silly, yet fluid animation and the crude humor makes it stick out from all the other anime I used to watch. A great classic~

oh fuk fuk, this is pretty good

if you're talking about the dude from DIV, he's actually in the band ACME now.

Nice taste! A lot of us really enjoy classic visual kei, especially kotekei! You'll learn plenty of things about them here, I'm sure. Welcome to MH! I hope you have an enjoyable time here! Feel free to PM me if you have any questions~❤

Just from his profile pic and description alone, this dude is obviously just a huge stan and therefore is fake, so I'm locking this thread. 😶

I'm not much of a movie person, but I got a chance to see The Unholy Three on TMC just a while ago. I really love old movies, especially silent movies, because it's fascinating how easy it is to figure out what's going on throughout the movie, despite not having any spoken dialogue whatsoever, plus the fact that it was during a different time period where movies were starting to become a thing. Other than that, I can't really describe how oddly intriguing those kinds of films are...it's a shame I hardly watch tv anymore and get a chance to watch one that catches my eye. Anyway, it's about these three sideshow performers - a ventriloquist, a strongman, and a midget - who turn to a life of crime in order to make more money. They decide to run a pet shop and to attract more attention from wealthy people, they pretend they have talking birds - well, with the help of the ventriloquist, Echo, of course. To not have themselves be found out, the trio also disguise themselves - Echo as the old shop owner, Mrs. O'Grady, the midget, Tweedledee, as her grandson Willie, and the strong guy, Hercules, as a shop worker. The others associated with them are a woman named Rosie (Echo's girlfriend), who was a pickpocket, and another man named Hector, who happens to be another worker in the shop. Unlike the rest, Hector doesn't really know any of the others and is completely clueless as to what's really going on. I also just saw that there's a talkie version with the same actors who play Echo and Tweedledee. I've got to watch that sometime, if I can find it.

Acid Black Cherry has been forced to cancel their BLACK x BLOOD tour due to Yasu's physical condition caused by overworking. It's said that he had severe pain all over his body, especially on his cervical vertebrae (his back). https://ameblo.jp/abcdream-cup/entry-12298336609.html Yasu's message to fans: http://www.acidblackcherry.com/2017blood/yasu_message.php

Apparently the single has been freely distributed from various stores, ie. Brand X, Puresound, Jishuban Club, etc., since July 13 - dunno if this also applies to online purchases (such as how Bratbax's single was distributed). Quantities are also limited of course. Another version of the single which also comes with a making-of DVD was also distributed at their live on July 22.
