    So it's no secret Suicidal Tendencies was very influential to Visual Kei. Everyone knows 90's Visual Kei has punk roots, as well as thrash metal roots, and that combination was Suicidal's bread and butter. This is an example I noticed recently of a Visual Kei song taking inspiration from them.: Furan Yue Ni by La:Sadie's seems to have taken a lot from Subliminal by Suicidal As a bonus I'll throw in Byou Shin by Dir en Grey. There are probably even more examples, but I'm only a very casual listener to Suicidal (I've been neglecting them for so long lmao)

    For some reason, I thought this was referring to the other More lol

    Calling the police would be dangerous though since I'd have no place to go, and it would ensure my partner's parents kick me out. Plus, the police in this town kinda don't like my kind. I definitely will if he actually throws a punch or attempts anything to any of my pets. Right now, my focus is primarily surviving until my friends get their new apartment and my partner and I can move in But yeah, we can PM about this!
  4. So this is gonna be a lot to explain and I never thought I'd be going to MH for this, but my partner's mom is having her friend stay over for a while. He's in his 50's, and he thinks because he's older than me, he can parent me, treat me like a child (he even refers to me as a child!) and blatantly disrespects me and oversteps my boundaries. I don't think I can reason with him, since he acknowledges he's an asshole, and is proud of it. He's also very stuck in his boomer ways, as he thinks it's ok to hit children and animals. He's also in general kinda violent, and since he's got here, my partner's mom has been acting more violent, as she's been starting fights, and threatening to hit the cats and calls them mean names now. I'm actually afraid both of them would try to get violent with me and my partner, since they believe in spanking, and still see us as children. He also misgenders me and can't even be bothered to remember my god damn name. I'm always referred to as "what's his name". Aimi isn't that hard to remember, but ok. Oh, and I can't just up and leave, I don't leave this place for another few months, so I'm kinda stuck with him until one of us leaves. In short, he's a piece of shit who treats me like a child, and it's not my say in whether he leaves or not, and my partner's parents really like him. So... what the fuck do I do? I can't leave yet (I move out in a few months) so I'm pretty much stuck with this trailer trash piece of shit, who I'm supposed to have sympathy for because his partner died. Should I even attempt to tell him he's overstepping my boundaries? Oh and a little bonus, both of us are disabled, but he thinks my disability is invalid because I'm younger than him.
  5. I wish there were more PVs out there that looked like the ones Dir en Grey did for Gauze camera-and-lighting-wise. I wonder what they filmed them with. I probably could never afford that type of camera, but it would still be cool to know.

    Any 90's Vkei song where they rip Kiyoharu's "By-y-y-y" lyric from Shin'ai Naru DEATHMASK. I.E Zan by Dir en Grey, Pala Psycho by Ru:Natic, etc.
  7. I randomly came across this weird but cool video of these Russian folk musicians playing Du Hast by Rammstein on traditional instruments. Also featuring a Duduk player who I'm assuming is Armenian, since that's where the instrument comes from

     

  8. Apparently Sasa from Devil Kitty, MADARA and Ephion became a vocaloid producer, according to vkdb, but his niconico is private. RIP.

      Homodachi no Wa (初音ミク ver)

      @Peace Heavy mk II I would pay to hear that lmao. The chorus tbh could actually fit Miku's voice

  9. We have French, German and British themed Kote Kei bands... but we don't have a Russian one? I mean, we have Vkei bands that have taken Soviet themes, but it'd be cool to see a Vkei band take a proper Russian aesthetic.

  10. The only listenable song is the 2nd soundcloud one tbh. God I hate those drum sounds every other rapper uses. Use some different samples for once lmao
  11. So first Karuna from Kimi wa Surudoku, and now this? Today just hasn't been a good day for Visual Kei.
  12. That's what I guessed at first when I saw that there would be 3 new songs.
  13. Himeaimichu

    How dare ye make me choose between Dir en Grey, Due Le Quartz, Phantasmagoria, Syndrome, and Aliene Ma'riage. There should be an all of the above option lmao.
  14. Wtf. I hope he joins another band.
  15. Himeaimichu

    I hope he feels better soon. I never really listened to him much, but Kotonoha slaps.
  16. So is this an alter ego band? Because I'd totally be down for an alter ego band
  17. This is literally just a tribute to Buzentari by Guruguru Eigakan and I love it
  18. I just saw a bunch of Viets on twitter attack some country singer for wearing the Ao Dai... and holy fuck these people know nothing about Vietnamese culture. They're going on about how someone shouldn't sexualise the Ao Dai, but like, the Ao Dai is already sexualised, and has been since the 1930's. They're all made to accentuate the breasts and butt.

     

    As well, these people were pulling up images of extremely modernised Viet clothing, and saying it's the "real traditions". I swear sometimes I feel like I'm the only Viet nowadays who actually cared to research about our traditions, especially of those that date before Chinese and French rule, instead of blindly thinking the literal historical equivalent of a suit-and-tie is somehow a thousand year old tradition.

  19. So I've really been sleeping on Jigsaw but holy fuck they're like the perfect mix of old school and modern Vkei. 

  20. That is one catchy chorus. Gulu Gulu is here to save the Vkei scene
  21. I like the rerecording of Kiryu's Tsurezureguza, but I hate how they removed the Sitar/Biwa (I assume they were trying to simulate a Biwa, which is a traditional Japanese instrument that sounds like a Sitar, with sitar samples). I know most sitar samples sound fake as shit, and Biwa samples are nonexistent (as it is, the instrument is now only really used to accompany story telling), but if BP Records can afford to have real Taiko drummers during lives, I think they can afford to hire a Biwa-player, or at least buy one of those guitars that sound like Sitars.

      This is a Biwa, btw, for those who aren't familiar with Japanese instruments:

      Zeus

      i'm more amazed one of the guitarists doesn't own one

  22. I finally tried Kiryu's most recent album and single and I gotta say, they're way better than I thought they were gonna be. Also, they went full Kote-Kei on the song 鋸挽 from their last single. 

    1. saiko

      Himeaimichu

      @psychonnect_rozen Oh yeah. She even attacked fellow Nazi sympathiser Ben Shapiro because he was Jewish.

    Might wanna change that subtitle, Kamijo.

    I usually imagine the song being performed or in a music video. When I was younger, I would act out my own music videos while listening to music (and I still do when practicing my vocals)
