Time to finally check out kuroyuri to kage and see what all the praise is about, I'm excited 

I may upload some Memento Mori stuff in lossless soon. My partner has almost their entire discography (minus their full-length and their demo tape) 

Happy Birthday!

Sooo I'm guessing Devil Kitty died again?

I want to start using last.fm again, but I'd have to correct all my music tags. 

ALL of my Vkei tags....

The riff to the new Kiryu song reminds me of Ookami Shounen by Mi'ze:lia (one of Mitsuki and Takemasa's earliest bands)

they mention Kyo for just 10 seconds smh...

So, I just found that there's a Brazilian singer called "Kamaitachi"... what???

When can I edit my rank? I'm already sick of being Kisaki's errand boy.

God Damn Car ,always taking my God Damned money. 

Hey there!

After many (many) listenings to DeG's "Gauze", I could moreless figure out which are the sources of the majority of the songs in the album, in terms of styles and bands. For example, "Mitsu no tsuba", "Yurameki" and "Akuro no oka" recall Luna Sea very easily, "Cage" does for X songs like "Rusty Nail", while "304 blablabla", "Zan" and "Mazohyst" do the same for Kuroyume. 

But there are still some songs whose arrangments don't fit in any "constelations" of arranagments I've heard before withing and out of the VK scene. "Yokan", "Raison detre" and "Mask"; the only word that comes to my mind while hearing them is "dance punk", but I can't tell anything else on the subject.

Any ideas?

So my bf said he didn't like Gauze beyond "Cage", because of Kyo's voice sounding "weird" at him. 

Should I dump him?

I recently feel in love with Kiryu's song Etsu to Utsu. So I was wondering, for those that are more knowledgeable with their discography, do they have other songs with a similar style? I would really appreciate any recommendations!

Which came first? The Omnibus series titled Deep More Deep, or the Vasalla song from 1998 titled Deep (More Deep) Blue?

Still waiting someday some mysterious user on YouTube uploads a handful full VHS recordings of Dir en grey's first concerts, where they played Zan faster than it would be recorded, and Kaoru missed almost every solo.

I don't understand how this hasn't happened yet, considering it did happen with La:Sadie's and also big bands like X, Luna Sea, L'arc, D’erlanger, and many more.

Tbh I got really bored of watching the 1999 Osaka Jou live over and over to have some of the most glorious 90s vk performances ever...

I listened to Dir En Grey's newest album last night. And I am thoroughly impressed by it. It was really a wonderful album to listen to, and reminded me of a lot of their older music. I didn't like their "Westernized" albums as much as their old stuff, so I am very pleased that they've gone back to their roots. I may even purchase the album since I liked it that much. Definitely a good album to check out.

I'm trying to mod GTA San Andreas, and I legit actually said "WHY IS THE MOON STILL THE FUCKING MOON?" 

just gotta drop my 2 cents in a more visible place:

i'm of the opinion that visual kei has been dying for a good minute. but rock "died" in mainstream american music too and its still around. vk will have the same fate. as long as there's japanese people willing to be visual kei, and international english speaking fans willing to listen, then mh will always be here. and even if you have fallen out of love with japanese music, we are still here for you too. at some point, we've grown beyond a site for music and we've become a community and a family, and that is the secret sauce that has allowed us to outlive all our competition.
