Basically Mad Tea Party :'( Asagi is always inviting artists I like to his events.

If anyone asks what I listen to, I just tell them symphonic metal or symphonic rock, since that's the area of VK I listen to the most. Frankly, it's not really their business what I listen to anyway.

Yeah, it's my approach. And I name bands and it's the same to them. 

It gets awkward when I give co-workers rides, today in fact I was asked to put on some reggaeton and I went "not in my car, not on my ipod". But then again, it's none of their business.

It only gets stressful at home because I get yelled at A LOT for playing japanese music outloud because of the screaming. And once I started plaing j-pop out loud the answer changed to "the languare REALLY disturbs me". Kind of a bummer that after 8 years the language is still an issue for my own mother, but meh.

the thing about getting arrested in Japan is they can and will detain you for 23+ days if they want to, and there's almost no bail (even if AK was granted bail it's on average about 1.5 million yen and there's no way they can afford that). they can't very well get a bassist last minute even if they wanted to play without him. and if they did get a bassist, people would judge the shit out of them for showing up in public like it was no big deal -- when they come back it needs to be with a lot of grovelling because Japan. basically they have to wait for him to go to court or be released before they can do anything anyway.

So pretty much what L'Arc did when Sakura got arrested.

I haven't messaged her on here, I directly emailed her.

One month ago I asked about my package and she said she'd give me a refund and then vanished into thin air.

Kinda hate doing this... 

But took too long to contact in the first place, it's been three months and no sign of the package and now no information whatsoever, won't reply emails :/

2016, stap!

active as a roleplayer on textbase - most of the time those stories are about wolves mixed with fantasy.

<3 this is just beautiful.

Welcome to the forum, glad you finally decided to join us, I hope you have a great time as a member.

This is so childish.

On the other hand, their label probably went all "sell 100 tickets or you're out" on them.

that wasn't exactly what i was referring to.......i mostly meant in terms of race since i'm asian living in a white dominant country. so i sometimes wonder what it'd be like if i grew up in an asian country instead, like japan for instance.

Ah yes, it does suck to be a racial minority :/

Can this be considered a Xmas song though? It is totally unrelated to the holiday.

grow up in a country where i wasn't the minority all the time.

Visual Kei is a minority in it's own country. Sorry to burst your bubble, pal

I wish I was born in Japan/lived in Japan, but I do not wish to be Japanese. I am very proud of my latino boobs, thank you very much.

Seiously though, I'd hate being not only flat as a board but pressured to be submissive and dumb by society. I already hate it in latin america, I couldn't survive it if I were Japanese.

I don't want to work today :C

2016 strikes again :/

Hey! welcome to the forum! I hope you enjoy your stay.

And of course, this one:

And then Black Gene For the Next Scene's Chaotic Christmas, which I can't find on youtube. And probably more I can't remember right now.

maria cross probably....

Maria Cross is probably Monochrome Heaven's guilty pleasure XD

"Mejibray is like the SAO of VisualKei."

That was the best line in the whole post XD

It was fun to read, though more than a "top ten of bands" it's a "top ten of things to try out in VK"

This is a great thread XD

I can't believe Yoshiki has been putting off the new album for twenty f***ing years.
Because why do today what you can do tomorrow -.-

Cion looks like a pimp. There, I said it.

The others look great.

Ohh Kagrra, Purple Stone, Moran and Gotchrocka, good taste

Welcome to Monochrome Heaven! i hope you enjoy it

vrzel...shhhhh

I was comming to post this XDDD

I know they aren't super talented or original and more like another indies band of the bunch... but I dig them XD

As usual, I can't attach pictures (don't bother, I've been given three tutorials). But both lock screen and home screen on my computer are the promotional picture for Asagi's last solo single.
For my phone I usually swich between the selfies Hide-Zou constantly posts.

Kuroyume and Breakerz because of the guys' voices. I got past that and focused on the music.

Nocturnal Bloodlust, Diru, Avanchick, Maximum the Hormone and probably other bands with lots of screaming that made me go "no, no, nope" at first until I gave them a second (or third, or fourth) chance.

Kaya, once I got past the shocking (to me at the time) fact that he wasn't only pretending to be drag.
