  1.  Looks like some sessions band is around with morrigan vocalist, dimlims original bassist, and the drummer that just got kicked out of yumeleep

      Scala is the session band they have with ex.LIM members. I thought they’d already written original songs, so it was surprising to see they had joined cula.

  2. Is there any non vk Japanese acts people would recommend (still in the metalish area)

     

    I basically just listen to anything Katsuya is involved in

      Yeah, just the mixing and mastering for their last mini album because Ryo was his Senpai and I guess let him do it so he could get his foot in the door

  4. Finding out that the Canadian from Baboo (JOY), Chobi (DIV) and Im pretty sure their Tetsuya is Diauras Tetsuya. Dunno who the lead is.

      diaura's drummer is tatsuya not tetsuya

  5. does anyone have the editing skills to take that band photo kizu has for heisei look but to change the color scheme to look like what they had going on in the music video

  6. Leda’s babymetal fanboys outnumbered his vk fans 10:1

      It was a 3 hour live, but they didn’t play The Farthest, yomi no yuzuriha etc. Hopefully next week’s setlist is different. But I can’t imagine them coming back... all their music tastes are so different now

      Pretty much everyone in front of kamite were male... but it’s not surprising since there are never any girls that show up to his seminars :(

  10. Just found out that Azu from Dhalis is still active with a new band, ZON, and what surprised me the most is how much he has improved as a vocalist 😳

    1. helcchi

      helcchi

      Mike as well, he goes by Mii now

  11. Now I'm curious. If you sign to a VK label, do they have a stock of their own costume/fashion pieces for their acts to use/rent? Or do you need your manager to find thrift or costume rental outlet? Or maybe your label would hook you up to the outside source that they have a deal with? Hmmm.

    1. helcchi

      helcchi

      DRESS en DORIS (http://d0ris.com/costume/works/) and Rion (http://rion-rose.com/works.html) have custom-made the costumes for almost every vk band in existence

  12. Who's the best drummer on the scene and why (what in his technique/style makes you think that)?

      Check out this thread on 2ch ranking vk drummers lol

      http://anago.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/visual/1269526832/

       

      And I think these kids deserve a mention:

       

      hibiki shiraishi (matenrou opera supper) - clinician, and can play various styles. Also his stick tricks.

       

       

       

      for speed, Zyean (jiluka) improves at a rate 50bpm a year. Last clocked at around 330bpm

  14. I goddamn miss MALISEND so much, these sounds... Slap me if i'm the way off but i kinda put Valluna, Mediena etc in the "same category" of bands in my mind. Not to be exclusive or stupid, they just resonate to me in the same way. DIAURA is shit nowadays, Valluna was fucking bomb. 

    1. helcchi

      helcchi

      Counting on ディオーラ to bring back the valluna vibes.

  15. 襲の自作自演屋's "雨ざらしの唄" is the most Panic Ch song I've heard in YEARS. What a throwback!

      Omg you're right! All those early 00s oshare-kei memories came flooding back 😨

  16. Does anyone know if the vocalist of Awoi came back in a new band and i didn't notice,or he still out of the scene since the disbandment?

    1. helcchi

  22. Who's got 'best look'(s) in VK in 2017 thus far? Can be based on level of outfitting and makeup app. (in addition to straight weirdness as when this is normally mentioned lol). I clearly have a ba.Futaba(balalaika) thing going on, the band's media pages have filled my feed with his grace for months now so I am giving the man FULL credit. FolkS?

  23. Is... is this real?

      After removing his moustache, it's him. It definitely is Ken.

      Who trapped him in the gym?
