Again? Can Kisaki like just stay still? 

I'm a huge sucker for Traditional Japanese music, and the Inuyasha soundtrack really hits me. They made sure to represent the Sengoku era very well, with instruments like the Koto and Biwa used in Kikyo no Kokoro, or the Nohkan flute used in Sesshomaru's theme.  The overall orchestration really reminds me of film soundtracks from the late 70's and 80's.

They're feasting now that they don't have to deal with money-snatching Tomoe 

That Sho and Koto in the beginning is giving me an eargasm

This look gives ultimate La'Mule vibes. Also, Mitsuki is wearing his nose cover again lol. Haven't seen that since Shuka Ensen.

Honestly, if they removed the hood that My Melody wears, they could've gotten away with it lol. 

Well now it's time for someone who speaks Japanese to DM them on twitter requesting them to do a Taiheiyou Belt parody lol

Nawww.... I think this was done with the cease and desist order they got and then they trashed all their reverse mymelo merch!

Ah. Either way, it wouldn't be the first time a band used Sanrio as "inspiration". Just some bands, like Taiheiyou Belt, were more slick about it lol (that and Taiheiyou is an obscure Piko-Piko/Angura band). Maybe Kaitou Sentai should've parodied Taiheiyou lol (actually, that'd be really cool as fuck). Can anyone show me what the merch originally looked like?  

Here is the Taiheiyou Belt logo. 

Apparently, the band is getting a lawsuit from Sanrio for selling merch that has a My Melody ripoff? 

Actually interested in this. Gonna see if I can get my hands on it when it comes

Some of La'Mule's early stuff had a dark sound. Fantasy and Mind Control come to mind. Thrash metal with organs and all. 

Well, Eve was involved in the making of Ai no Tokui Ten. Eve is an employee of Shimizuya records, the shitty record label AvelCain was on. He was highly involved in writing a lot of the band's stuff, and I believe he played support for them after Sou left, and before Byou joined.

My guess is, knowing the situation and how Shimizuya works, Karma doesn't want anything to do with Shimizuya anymore, but he's locked in a slave contract, so he can't do anything. 

It's also totally possible he's just done with the vkei scene. After AvelCain being abused by the label, him not being in charge of his own stuff, and a whole bunch of other circumstances, he probably just gave up. 

This is a really cool idea! I'll have to try the playlist out when it's finished!

Seems fitting for the situation

Our favorite boi Totto, from 1995 and 2015 after returning a long time after his great musical success in Devil Kitty. (linky)

From information i gathered of his age, he was supposidly 17 in L,dear starting 1999, you can geuss his age in the left image.

Kinda supprising how early this guy has been active.

 

Might want to put posters around Tokyo (and the entirety of Japan) saying "Stay the hell away from this creep" lol

At this point, I'm convinced this is just a promotional stunt. 

I mean, Jigsaw basically double-promoted theirself with Tobiori-Kun.

Though at this point it's like "Oh, that band lost contact with a member? Oh, normal day"

I'm gonna wait until this develops more to get a full opinion, BUT, 

if the person was causing real problems, then yeah, ban her. If a fan was spreading fake shit or personal shit about my band, might as well keep far away from them. 

Kyo from Dir en Grey has a shit ton of daddy issues ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) , if that's what you're looking for

I know Kyuho and he's a really nice guy. Even though Black Metal isn't really my thing, I like how Madmans Esprit does it. 

I agree with this here. When I heard the album previews, I thought to myself "Welp, they pulled a Pierrot" because Pierrot did a similar thing. They started toning down their visuals and going a more pop rock route

Do we still get death penalty for sharing the music?

All I know is ThunderBoiiz, because my friend likes them. 

Anyone know any Japanese Boom Bap, if that's a thing? 

Welcome to the forum! I'm also a Angura fan. My favourite angura bands are Guruguru Eigakan, Jully (though I haven't listened to too much), and Kalavinka. 

Also, who is the bandman in your avatar? I love looks like that. The whole Gill'e Cadith Karuna inspired look. 

It'd be cool if someone tried to sort of reconstruct the old version of Zan. I always wanted to try but my guitar skills are nonexistent

I know that Sakura plays in Gibkiy, which is close with Kozi's band, ZiZ. 

I wonder who the vocalist would be. Fingers crossed Klaha comes out of retirement

God this is a disappointing album, I can tell. 

I can see the cycle repeating. Band gets big. Band makes an album that is poppy. Band doesn't sell well and disbands in 2 years. 

Happens every time
