Yeah, I remember. I used to follow him. Too bad :/ I was digging the preview
-
Ok, so "before they got popular" I waited for their release for ever but never found it. Wasn't it cancelled?
-
Can't live without fucking up my friendships.
-
I actually need to save money for August.. I wasn't fast enough for the gray hoodie so the minute they released this one I threw money at my contact LOL
-
I can't believe they are SERIOUSLY keeping us waiting until August. Ohh the Faizh look was spot on. IDK who is assessing these guy's images, but whoever it is, they're slaying. yu-ki iwata is slaying too.
-
Same, like they all always look nice and then there's Ricko who either looks cute as fuck or like he just sacrificed a goat to satan. I am madly in love with the new look. Everyone's.
-
You mean the "Asagi broke a condom 20 years ago and quickly burried them before anyone knew" band? XDDD I hadn't seen this topic, but I must mention As'REAL, Malisend and Killaneth as my favorite short-lived bands.
-
He always does, but I'm impressed by Ricko. Boogie looks hot as fuck...
-
Ricko looks unbelievably pretty. AND OMG SENA IS SUCH A SLUTTY BABE I AM SO COSPLAYING THIS. I've been screaming for the past two hours. They all look great ; ;
-
OK, I normally cannot tell when people use autotune, but this is TOO obvious. And terrible.

Yas!! Finally!! I knew they were going to keep JaY.

I have very, very mixed feelings concerning this topic, so all I say may sound confusing. I may sound cocky too, but you guys asked for opinions. I also tried posting this under spoiler but phone won't let me... Brace yourselves, rant is coming: Of course, just like any foreigner, I got into this thanks to piracy. Of course, I do download pretty much everything shared on the VK section, even if just to sample it and delete it half an hour later (I no longer hoard music I do not like). And, just like many people, I occasionally share rips because I know some people will enjoy them and some others might discover a band they will like and support. Yet I truly despise when my rips are shared outside of this community, even though my common sense (who usually sounds like Yuyo) dictates it's the right way to preserve and spread it. Maybe it is because here it stays within a community of people who also buy and share their rips and it feels more like an open trade. Key word: feels like. But feelings are not meant to be rational, right? I support about 10-12 active bands. A good portion of my salary goes towards VK. I make certain sacrifices in order to make sure my honmei can have their rice and redbull. Hell, I even pay people to get me goods at lives so they can get more money from me in a more direct way than buying second hand stuff. Maybe that is why I feel I 'earned' the right to trade rips of the bands I do enjoy yet don't love enough to include in my monthly spendings. And I feel people who share rips here kinda earned the 'right' to get my rips for free. Because they support the scene too. Sometimes I even dl rips from the bands I do buy from because I'll buy the release with the next paycheck or the following, or sometime in the future when I stop blowing my money on chekis (sorry, Diaura). Which is why it kinda bums me to spend hundreds of dollars on music, share it with people who also support the scene as far as their wallets allow it, and then it gets leaked to people who not only don't support the scene, but feel entitled to be given rips anyways 'because they love the band so much, omg they mah favez!!' I don't mean to say I am a better fan than they are, or a better person, or whatever. I'm probably a pathetic chick who blows her paycheck on asian drag queens who attempt to play metal instead of in... idk whatever shit regular people spend their money on. But it really gets on my nerves to read so many people on social media, especially Hispanics, viewing piracy as a 'right'. Demanding for HQ rips, whining about those 'fucking selfish japs/gringos who get everything and don't share fast enough'. Fuck you! If I buy a release I do not have the moral duty of posting it online. And in those very same communities I see a handful of people leeching, bragging about 'their collections' (virtual collections of course) and sharing our stuff just to make themselves popular. 'Look, I'm such a VK connaiseur because I have two hard drives filled with VK I got from MH. I'm a true fan cuz I have rarez. Now kiss my ass if you want me to share the rip I didn't even originate'. I know a dude who's considered the 'wikipedia of VK' because he's always talking about the many bands he knows and buys. Turns out he doesn't buy shit, he leeches from JpopSuki and here AND HE FUCKING CHARGES FOR IT. HE IS SERIOUSLY MAKING HIMSELF A NAME AND MONEY SELLING OTHER PEOPLE'S RIPS. AS HIS OWN. I understand the role piracy plays in the scene. I know it's exposure, and it helps spread the music and make bands popular. It preserves files online (though I've been all day looking for geek sleep sheep's albums and I cannot fucking find a decent rip, I swear). It also gives way to interesting discussions about music. But I also understand it fucking pisses bands off, many have told me so. It even pisses off western VK bands I know when they see their music up for grabs where they didn't post it. It's sorta disrespectful in a way, to say "yeah, man, I love your art but I ain't paying for it'. I have literally read those words online. I don't know if my point is even understood here... I've even defended piracy when talking to a few bandomen, saying that it actually promotes their music and gains them new fans. And I understand without piracy most of us wouldn't be here today. Boy, I really wish someone would share those Amai Boryoku live limited EPs. But I hate so much that downloads bring people here only to leech instead of for all the other amazing features this community has to offer. I hate that people outside of the community get popular or even get money spreading our rips without even mentioning Monochrome Heaven. I hate the way they talk about us when we don't share fast enough, like we owe them the rips. Like it's our duty to share the day before the release and in HQ... With so many bands posting their previews on youtube, full releases on Spotify and iTunes, is such an open piracy still necessary to promote the music they work so hard to make? (I refuse to use youtube and Spotify, I hate them, so I'm being cynical by just bringing them up myself). All the people who say 'I don't risk buying releases I don't know I'll like' can now hear the previews on youtube/spotify, right? I think I'd really like to keep the DLs here to the community and the people who contribute, so maybe people elsewhere will stop taking us for granted and have a solid reason to complain about us... I'm ready for the MH trolls to go berserk on my feelings and opinions. Keep in mind these are just rather irrational feels and opinions and that my opinions stem from my own experiences and my own reality, which is not the absolute truth and does not account for other people's experiences.

Por temas de piratería, tengo entendido que Argentina tiene completamente prohibidas las importaciones de CDs y libros. Intenté mandarle unos como regalo a una amiga y no hubo caso :/
