I've loved everything they've released so far but this one might actually be my new favourite. I love how they aren't just repackaging Hunger/The Dead Sea over and over, too, and they actually have a bit of variation in their music. After the first song in the campaign I was kinda concerned that's the route they'd take, which wouldn't have been too big an issue since I liked it but it's nice to have variety. Also, the wonky English is growing on me, I actually found it more charming than anything else with this one. Seriously loving this band so far.

Personally I was never too fond of MALISEND's vocalist so I'm super excited that it's Ryo on vocals, he's not an outstanding vocalist or anything but I find his voice captivating nonetheless. The previews sounded amazing and the members all look spectacular, this is one of the best things that's happened so far this year in my opinion.

I'm not against Engrish, just as a general rule, but with each new song they release they keep managing to push my tolerance limits just a little more. These English lyrics are so absurd. I don't mind necessarily because everything else is great, but some lines really are godawful. They deserve points for trying, though, I'll give them that.
 
Speaking on the music itself, I love everything they're doing. Some of the choruses feel a bit samey but it's not too bad, I don't mind it. I'm looking forward to hearing the rest of this campaign of theirs, hopefully they keep releasing great stuff and don't burn out their ideas halfway through or something.

That was way better than I was expecting it to be, though honestly my expectations were probably lower than they should've been simply out of bias against Melvel's vocalist. His voice was one of the very few that were truly intolerable for me. But he seems to have changed his singing style enough that rather than sounding incredibly grating to me, it actually sounds really cool. There's something about his voice with that style of music that's just sort of special; it almost seems like it doesn't fit but in a way that makes it fit near-perfectly. I can't wait to hear the whole mini album, because the preview sounds like it has the potential to be one of my favourite things of 2017.

The song and video were both really cute! The brighter, cuter, more colourful side of visual kei was a large part of what what got me interested in Japanese music as a whole, so it's great to see bands like that still pop up every now and again. I'm looking forward to more from these guys, I really hope they last.

The only thing that diaper is absorbing is my will to live. The music video was cute, kind of lame but still cute. I really don't understand how they went from a cheesy music video about bullying, to wearing adult diapers and riding around on a kid's bike with a onesie (is it even a onesie?) on and a dummy in his mouth, in the span of less than a week. Do they think it's cutesy? Is this some sort of fetish kei? Are they just insane? Tbh I still think they're cute so they could do whatever and I'd still stick around but this shit has gotten real wacky real quick.

Being a VK fan is like being a GoT fan... Don't get attached to anyone.

This is pretty terrible to hear. Not just as a fan of the band either, having the band break up the way they did has gotta suck for the members. I hope they can find a new vocalist and start something else pretty soon, I liked their super electronic style.

Damn that's a big ask... esp. considering I don't think they have some release that coincides with that show.
 
Also, if this really was their record label saying "get 300 people at this show or find a new label" does that not hurt Terakoya's ability to convince other bands to sign with them?
 
Like, if I was a band on the come up would I want to sign with a label that made public a demand to get a certain number of people at a show??
 
Just drop 'em and move on if they're not making the money you'd like, don't embarrass them.

Gt.Yuiha has blogged about the situation, just basically going thru the band's troubles, how Rino's act was pure betrayal, and the fact that he himself will be the only guitarist. Here's the link if you're interested.

I was sorta amused seeing this pop up so soon after announcing Shiori's return. I feel awful about it though, I'd imagine this whole thing feels horrible for the other members. I know at least Liki has talked a bit about it on Twitter. It's pretty sad. I'm curious about the "secretly planned musical activities with other management companies" thing though, I wonder what it was specifically that he actually got up to.

Whilst I love everything this band has put out, I had already kind of decided from the preview for it that 'CORE -Worship-' would be my favourite of their consecutive release thing, but after hearing the whole song I'm pretty sure 'CORE' is just my favourite song of theirs in general. The PV itself was cool too, I love their outfits. Great band.

Really disappointing, I really liked most of what little they released. The main problem I had with them though is that they would release too much of what I would consider filler stuff, if it can be called that. On their 'JOKER' and 'iNSOMNiA' releases, only the first song seemed like they really cared too greatly about it, leaving 1 and 2 songs, respectively, that felt like they existed just to pad the releases' length out. Since from what I know they've only released like, 7 songs so far, that means 3 of the 7, nearly half of their discography thus far, is filler stuff. I don't know if that's truly the case or if it was a result of inexperience writing music because it seems like this is their first proper band, with the only previous credentials I've seen from them being that a few of them were roadies for other bands.
 
I do still like the 'filler' stuff, but it really could be better. My biggest hope in the disbandment is that they get some more experience as musicians and songwriters and at least some of the members come back in other bands later down the line because they really do have potential in my eyes, but iNSOMNiA just isn't the band in which they fully realised that potential.
 
On another note, really looking forward to the album.

It's hard for me to describe it but, that song/PV was really cheesy and lame, but in a way that I absolutely loved. It kind of reminded of some older oshare bands I used to like so that probably helps. Definitely a band I'll be keeping track of.

The look isn't the most original I've ever seen but it's not like I think it's bad or anything. Their music could probably do with a bit of polishing but I still like it as it is, especially the vocals. I hope for good things from them.

The title song sounds so good. I've been hoping for more from them, this is really exciting.

I love when bands use violins in their music which makes Aiolin is a band I'm super excited about, so this is excellent news!

I'm curious as to what it'll actually sound like. There's a really noticeable stylistic discrepancy between Nameless and the entirety of "Can you feel this kisses?" so it's kind of difficult to guess what new stuff from them will actually sound like. I'm assuming it'll probably sound more like the style from "Can you feel this kisses?" though, which is fine with me as I really, really liked that whole mini album.

Their ridiculous obsessions with hyphens kind of bothers me but I really like their music, I'm excited for it.
