me then: *spent the whole time bitching about Labaiser's Imperial Propaganda*
me now: FUCK I LOVE IT
((the mixing quality still sucks xP))

You should! Saya has a nice range to his voice which makes their songs a bit more majestic, and their visuals/compositions remind me of Phantasmagoria/Lin.

MERRY will legally be an adult in November! At their anniversary live, they will be joined by none other than deadman, as bassist Tetsu has been performing with them as of late!

News forum rules updated: don't start off a thread with a copypaste of the original Japanese text of the topic you're covering. It looks out of place and therefore looks very low effort/lazy, because of the extra work other users have to do to translate and correct the post.
Again, the news forum is a cooperative effort, so if you need any help with certain topics, we're here to help! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to shoot me a message!

I don't mind the twitter embeds with the translation (it does not have to be accurate, just a general summary), it's a legit source and it's basically where the breaking news comes from. As for a shitload of tweets/videos/other embeds that take up a lot of space, I recommend putting that in a spoiler as it takes longer to load.

Not sure where to put this but here's some small news: Kami's family have asked people to refrain from visiting his grave.
Quote† Kamiを想うファンの方へ、ご親族からのお願い

psa: i've noticed that some of yall have been lazy with the news posting lately, so i've updated the news rules:
-
@Lestat I explained that in the replies, but tl;dr, I elaborated on updating thread titles after a significant update (announcements, release info, etc.)
On 11/26/2017 at 6:44 PM, suji said:- Please be sure to update the title of the post after a significant update has been announced. For example, if you start off with the topic, "MERRY new single" and the name is announced later on, please change the title to that of the release itself, ex. "MERRY new single, "Kasa to Ame" release". This gives the threads more variety and it's better than skimming thru topics that all have "MERRY new single" in the title.
**Highly recommended for topics whose releases are announced after the creation of a thread. Ex. "Plastic Tree to perform OP" turns into "Plastic Tree new single, "Inside Out". This prevents any confusion, skimming through extra info, and especially unnecessary duplicate threads.

quick reminder for those posting news, here are the rules! if you have any questions, please reply here or message me!

Since most of us don't speak Japanese, the translate tool is essential in spreading vk news to this site and other outlets. However, as it is automated, it's not gonna be 100% correct, so I always welcome any corrections from native or fluent speakers if necessary.
What I don't like however is when I or anyone else is being accused of starting rumors all because of a mistranslation or an error. That's not helpful at all - that's just being an asshole. If you're unhappy about that, then maybe speak up sooner or contribute once in a while.
-
@Zeus Well, then still sometimes people are saying such words as Suji wrote, or they say, don't translate if you can't understand Japanese enough etc.
I've got a lot of bad words (around the web), and yet often people who know Japanese still don't even think to help out. Because you simple have to learn the language your own!
But how can you learn a language if nobody helps you with learning it?!....
I think if someone knows someone did translate it wrong or even misunderstood it, that someone who understood it correctly simply could write down a translation. I mean, translating doesn't cost that much time if you understand a language good enough isn't?!
-
we cannot force one to translate. This was a good example that we all should be more cautious about the news and translations we are spreading. I can understand that with heavy news like this, people might get upset. Of course not justifying being rude towards you.
So don‘t take it too personal, let’s learn from this and move on👍
-
@cheesy_VK_Freak if those people expect us to do all the work for them, even while knowing we're not fluent, then they shouldn't get butthurt by the end result. js

So it looks like Last.fm is purging all pictures and shouts from certain artist pages for some reason...
https://www.last.fm/music/Nokturnal+Mortum
I wonder if they've done this to vk pages yet...
-
They have been doing this since at least this spring. There used to be a discussion about this on their support forum, which seems to have been removed as well by the staff, but an archived version exists under this link: https://getsatisfaction.com/lastfm/topics/why-did-last-fm-decide-to-kill-a-bunch-of-artist-pages?

tfw i gotta pay almost 50 fucking dollars just to ship a $16 cd......
any alternatives for fromjapan? i might use shopping mall japan, but it's been a while so idk if they're any better...
-
Come to think of it, before, I had purchased CDs that came with flyers (from Like an Edison for example) yet I only had to pay like, $20+ for shipping via air mail, and now all of a sudden the cost of air mail has jumped to fucking $30-$40, so I have to go for EMS shipping instead?? It's ridiculous and I don't understand it...
-
It happens, I usually don't buy cds and similar because of the higher taxs to send it to me, which can be from 40 to 60% of the cds price without the full or partial tracking, this ends begin factor number to don't get them. Example, last year I was planning to get BORN's last album with limited edition footage from their band best moments and it suddenly said the final cost would be like +$70. For me is really expensive, so I didn't got it.
