#WeSitStrong

oh shit i had no idea sakamoto was even gonna be animated! hell yes!

Aftermath completely blew me away and then the rest of Immortalis was totally disappointing to me. 

Awesome thread. thanks everyone.

killer thread
 

Its fusion, but is anyone hip to these guys and their affiliated projects?

Regardless if current shit sucks or not, I would never say its something to grow out of. Old school v kei is a such a crazy, interesting phenomenon in music that could have only happen in the time that it did and in the place that it did.

We haven't even seen the full effects of that wave. That scene is gonna go down in music history. the older it gets the more people will stumble upon entering the rabbit hole of v kei from a very disconnected standpoint. Most of us were born when these bands were still releasing music and have an idea about how fucking warped the scene has gotten.

Later people wont even have that frame of reference and will be able to look at the golden era as something totally different. Which it is. 

Wow never heard this mix thanks! Right up my ally! 

I feel you on the rawness of Marrow tho.... People like to trash that album but its not as bad as Arche for me. 

When will Dir en grey finally step it up and add more traditional folk instruments / horns / saxophones or whatever to their sound.... that would be tight.....

Even if you're trolling, ware yami tote and vinushka are some of the best songs they have ever done and I get that vibe from them. So fuck the sludge metal shit.

I wish there were 10 current bands i liked....

Wow thats sad. Nail in the coffin for me in terms of my reluctance to admit I have no interest in them after Arche...

Does anyone here actually own Sans Logique? Do they ever show up for sale?

V Kei Cassette tapes are my new obsession. 

listening to AKB48 is LITERALLY the same as listening to martial industrial

Glad I made an account here. 

Great post. 

I made an account just to say how excited I am that this band exists and honestly, nothing past like 2010 even compares to anything Ryo and his bands have done for me...
