frayed

Supposedly just the one in Harajuku is closing
 
Forum is taking over the rest. 
 
Yeah, Mejibray’s Forum. And the one who’s recently taken on Diaura.

Yeah, of course! It can be really disheartening to have a bad experience with a band that meant a lot to you, so I’m glad if hearing that can help you find enjoyment in them again!

i’m really glad to hear that.  also, it’s sort of comforting to know that it wasn’t smth personal and that he might just genuinely be an asshole, so thanks for sharing.  sometimes i take things personally, even if they weren’t.  maybe bc of this, ill be able to enjoy diru more now.  🖤

Nah, I think the rest of them are cool. Way back in the day when Dir en grey played those three shows in a row in NY, a lot of people were camped out and the tour bus was basically directly beside the line. More than once, Die would be coming and going and never seemed to have a problem acknowledging the fans/occasionally chatting with them. Then the night before the last show when it was pouring rain on everyone, Kyo went around with their translator giving everyone hot tea.

Tbh I like Dir en grey, but I’m not big on Shinya. He’s always read cold to me, and at first I thought maybe he was just shy or not a huge fan of meet and greets, which is whatever - but then we were both at the same party once,  and when I went to say I was a big fan of his band, he literally pretended I wasn’t even there. I mean straight up, I even did that awkward thing where I repeated myself because I wasn’t sure if he hadn’t heard me or not, lol.

Or just wither quietly away, hoping and praying no one ever remembers that it was a thing

Seems like someone on YouTube has already translated the lyric video for 東京! 
 

Basically they wanted to release the Heisei PV today and had every intention to, but they weren’t satisfied with the result yet - so rather than give us something they weren’t satisfied with yet, to tide us over, they made the lyric video for us

I can get where people aren’t so into it, but for my part I like that they go places people don’t expect. I dig the variety. 

Also what frayed said I'll wait to til I can rip a high quality of this and listen to it with proper audio equipment  just to see what went wrong with the mixing 

I feel like the sound quality is probably because of the whole special format they used to record the single with. I can’t imagine that would carry over to YouTube well.
 
That said, I liked the song.

People here really think's it's ok to dislike people for their sexual orientation and do homophobic comments?
No, it's not.
It's not ok to make racist comments.
It's not ok to make fun of a person because of his body.
NOT OK.
 
NOT OK  
 
Jeez, this is worst than i thought. 
I'm pretty much disappointed 

To be fair, I think their ‘less is more ‘ policy as a whole is paying off for them.

Like MEJIBRAY, except everyone still remembers (and misses) that? Sounds about right.

Yup, admittedly on that gay fic train. My most popular was Gazefic, back when I went by crucifyregret - but I mean light years ago, I’m talking LJ era. People still find me and ask me about it though which is kinda cool.

they grown in me. their music makes me smile. "spotlight" is one of my favourite!
it's okay to like different music! 
it's okay to enjoy what makes you happy!
 
MEJIBRAY, DIR EN GREY stan here but sometimes i blast BLACK PINK AND WHAT?! This doesn't stop me from loving heavy music. 
it's like a fight about pica with pineapple.
