I wouldn't read too much into Kagami's creative interpretation of what English words should mean in his head tbh

Or any other bandmember really. 

It’s hilarious how earlier in his thread (and other places) people were proclaiming this to be the greatest thing in brootal VK and now that there’s an actual sample y’all hate it. 

Reminds me of the other two so-called saviors of VK that flopped this year too.

Gotta stop hyping up bands so early into their careers xD

Idk, I ordered it just in case so if I can get it I’ll let y’all know how it sounds.

This seems to be the problem for what I can gather, is that the live shows are just dead. If they used all the backings and still put on an awesome and fun show for everyone there probably wouldn't be so much of an issue. (talking from experience here) But seems they're highly lacking in putting on a show that's enjoyable to watch and apparently just seems like they don't really care anymore and are just going through the motions which is sad to see considering how much promise they had some time back.

This is exactly the impression they are giving and why I walked out. It wasn’t bad musically, it was just a completely lifeless performance.

dimlim can go as a 3 member band, it worked for Gotcharocka . Oddly, I get them and deviloof mixed up  

Gotcharocka has support members on stage. They have never performed as a 3man unit (they clearly aren’t dumb).

i wonder what's the purpose behind this band going for so long, because it's not the popularity that's for sure

They are bigger in Japan than most of the bands hyped on this forum.

Is this where @Duwang shows up and gives some insider perspective and turns out we're all making a big deal over nothing

“Barely anyone left with those delusions” 🤷🏻‍♀️

Duwang is not going to feed your delusions about DMLM rising like a Phoenix, they aren’t gonna reply. 

They were at the same live as I and the thoughts I posted were shared after discussing our impressions.

"gratia plena, dominus tecum, benedicta tu in mulieribus

Literally the Ave Maria in latin lol

Yeah, but if a band doesn’t get any live attendance

a) Who are they even recording for. 

b) Livehouses may not want to work with them since they fail to bring people. 

After the pitiful, cringe-worthy performance I saw last Friday I wouldn’t hold my breath for the album.

Here’s some tea: some gya commented on twitter how disastrous the whole thing was and Retsu blocked her from his account and the official account. Then proceeded to whine on Instagram. The other guys looked so done. I’m willing to bet they either want out or a different path but can’t say no to Retsu. 

Btw, it was SO bad I couldn’t even stay for the whole performance. The only other band that made me nope the fuck out in the middle of a song was Yumeleep.

A bunch of westerners with me also walked out of it and thought it was painful to look at.

I see more agaru in this band’s questionable future. They won’t make it past the album, that is, if it’s ever released.

I am so relieved. The remasterization sounds amazing and the re-recordings are so good. 

I’m pleasantly surprised by Last faith, they went in a totally different direction. I guess Sena still has a tricks up his sleeve. These songs + the covers prove he can do something refreshing.

I’m so sick of... everything. 

I have had the album for two weeks already and can’t hear it yet :S

Extremely disappointed at all the “fans” downloading it when it’s on iTunes though.

Everytime Cat5 writes a lenghty paragraph on the forum I fall deeper in love with his morals.

I tweeted something about teenagers being horny towards adults all the time made me really uncomfortable and VK twitter turned it into me being an anti-lgbt incel or something. 

Also, wtf is "ok boomer" supposed to mean?

I'm really sick about everyone demanding respect for minorities but the minute I say I'm asexual and excess of sex in conversations makes me uncomfortable I'm ostracized and/or bullied.

My mental health took a bad turn and I caught myself about to google what was the right way to cut yourself. I'm exhausted. Of society.

Some girl with a B ticket pushed her way to the front up to saizen on Friday and kamite girls were not having it so we kindly indicated her to go back and respect our place 🤷🏻‍♀️

Keep in mind you can't push your way to the front or they may get bitchy, especially if it's a oneman.

I certainly would not call Senagya harmful/violent, I am really curious to know where you heard that.

Hell, one of them hugged me and kept me out of harm's way while VOD was moshing and another one kindly gave me the better spot knowing I had travelled for the shows from far away. Omg, such crazy, scarred for life.

Is anyone going to their 5th anniversary oneman in 2020? I've been back and forth about whether I wanted to go just to see what they're all about, but I heard horror stories about Senagya and I don't particularly want to deal with Crazy at my first gig with a band.

I'll go if I can get the days off at work. 

Also, wtf, we are chill if you are. 

If you want to see the band but don't want to be near Senagya there's shimote, you know?

I would love to see Sena without makeup and see what the transformation is like. He seems to love himself far too much in makeup, so just wonder if there's a reason for that. haha.

I've seen him from afar. Not that much of a difference, just plain small asian eyes. 

They are actually really handsome without make up.

I kinda fewl Sena feels more comfortable and confident with himself in his VK persona.

Damn am I jealous that you got to go to that live. Every single band on that list with the exception of NAZARE are on my "must see live" list (or must see live again, as the case with DEVILOOF) ...

Tbh, I didn't pay ANY attention to NAZARE. When they started playing I could see JILUKA getting their make up done from where I was standing and it was far more interesting to watch lol

The other bands were lit tho, the whole event was amazing. 

Thay played the new song last night and it was good live. 

I love that they went for clean vocals again. I love their brutality but I missed that cleaner sound from their early days a bit. This is what I was hoping for.

both went totes broke now?..

 

I wonder what this means for her tbh, I'm not really fond of most of ha solo work;

is she planning on turning GCR into her own Chatéauxê Kamijeaus label to sign younger bands after that?..

is she going solo?.. is she retiring?..

do D stans even care that much about, I guess, another full album and five dozen member photobooks they're planning to schedule over the next few years?

 

I really have so many questions

GCR has already signed bands over the years. 

In the past they've had Hollowgram, Redrum, Blesscode, Vetique and probably others.

Gotcharocka is still signed to them. 

He may retire as a performer, or at least take a long break. I doubt he'll do so as a producer. Hide-Zou is also a major producer at GCR, but idk what the other members will do. 

Nothing really outstanding, but not bad either.

Which would make this pretty confusing since at the time I'm pretty sure dimlim's label was just a made up name they could slap on stuff 

I was talking about the general industry.

In Dimlim's case then the label might have been Isseis. 

Anyway, while they probably don't want anything to with that era, I don't rule out Issei giving them a call and claiming his rights back after seeing a setlist floating around.
