GossiP, in addition to their GazettE stuff, has used song concepts from their old band JyuLie in the past. 夕暮れにリストカット sounds quite similar to お仕置の時間. Also, the riff of いじめぼっちの鬼ごっこ is basically the intro to 19歳の春 transposed into a higher key (neither are on youtube.) Early GossiP in general was basically just JyuLie without the traditional Japanese influence. I've seen many assume there was a big shift between JyuLie and GossiP, when they see what JyuLie used to look like, but by 2012, they started wearing Kimono less and looked more like the GossiP we know today.

I'll give credit where credit is due, the PVs are very well made and quite cool. Also, Misery is like the closest I'll get to liking "Filth in the Beauty".

Can anyone confirm if this is actually Daisuke? And if so, an explanation of it?
Edit: A friend confirmed it for me. Apparently, Daisuke loved to do plays-
yo right in the feels T_T

Did they record the entire audio while filming the thing? Damn that's some low budget audio quality

IDK, I guess my standards are kinda really high for Kiryu, and having seen other bands go the route of "little to no makeup with regular sounding music" (An example would be Pierrot), part of me gets sorta worried when other bands seem to even sound like they're going that route. Obviously, not every band that gets really popular does that. The GazettE and Dir en Grey are examples. (and is probably the reason they managed to stay around so long). Also, I'm too used to Kiryu's darker stuff, their experimental stuff, or their stuff that has influences from early 2000's vkei. To put it simply, I'm just picky, and paranoid. But that's just me and my weird opinions, which you don't have to like or agree with.

Song sounds REALLY ehhhh, and I had to look twice to see if they were actually wearing any makeup.. which scares me. Minimal makeup, and a song that sounds "mainstream" (gah that sounds so hipsterish to say). It seems far fetched, but there is a possibility they're slowly abandoning VisualKei. Which I really hope doesn't happen, since we pretty much have only them and Orochi left doing the traditional Japanese mixed with vkei thing (at least that I can think of off the top of my head). But idk. I'm hoping the B-Sides convince me otherwise. Kiryu's B-Sides never really fail to impress
-
Well, there is La'Veil Mizeria, whose theme is basically that late-90's early 2000's Matina sound, but they're on Starwave, so their recent stuff has really bad sound quality. There is also Crucifixion, which is practically a Madeth Gray'll tribute band, but with a very good vocalist lol

Wtf is with all the MTH reaction videos? Who is responsible for this so I know who to be angry at for filling my feed up with clones of the same video?

Oh my god this shit is golden
"I like the pop punky chorus"
Yup this dude is a basic bitch confirmed.And the reaction to "What's up people"...
One, your audio is out of sync. This ain't 2007.
Two, "This riff makes you want to stab your neck", how funny because looking at you makes me want to do that to you.
And the Alien reaction... I want to call 911 because it looks like he's having a seizure, but then that'd prevent natural selection from taking place.
This guy definitely has a stable income and is living in a very nice home in the hills and has a job that doesn't involve leeching off a family member.
Also, why do all these guys look like they came out of a Richard Spencer rally about how the fat bald Jew-Turk-Tatars are taking over the pure land? I guess if your video ideas aren't original, your parents probably took the same amount of work and originality into making all of you

I was watching his reaction to Sukekiyo and what he had to say was "drums are punchy"... Hey you know that, at least I know how to review music for the MH trade-offs now.

Hopefully it turns out good. I'm hoping a PV comes with it because I love their current look. Especially the drummer's Kitsune ears and all. Their early looks imo were too AvelCain and DEZERT inspired, but they seem to be branching out as of recent
-
Akuyou by Cuartet shares a lot of similarities with Seiri Tsuu wa Hannazuki wo Koora su Kion by Maximum the Hormone in some aspects. IDK how much influence MTH had at the time though

The boys with Sibilebashir

My Memento Mori live DVD came in and it's so amazing. The filming is done very well and they gave it their all on their final performance. If you can get your hands on the DVD (it's on CD Japan listen under "Memento Mori Last Live DVD." It's also on Brand X http://www.brand-x.jp/product/9466. I got it used on closet child), please do buy it. You won't be disappointed
-
There is this rumor going around that Kuro and K are bullying Mei. Though it's not confirmed, and a few people I know have met them, all say different things. Whether you believe it or not, is really your choice, since it's not confirmed
-
Should I be worried that I'm harmonising to JyuLie songs, since Saku isn't always in tune?
-
Or it also could be he wants to do something else while the other members want to keep with their direction. ^^
-
Is it safe to expect this one to be a Doujin project?
-
My opinion is the same as on the other kinds of modern pop music. No thanks. The sound is simply not my thing, and I don't like the corporatism involved. The only Kpop artist I really like (Though I don't listen to his stuff often) is Psy, because of how satirical his music can be. Though, he sorta doesn't count because he was originally intended just to be a hip-hop artist. IDK if Koreans think of him as Kpop or not, so I'm not sure whether he counts as such or not. Though I really don't like how it's often forced on other people. I remember I used to hang out online with this group of people who were fellow Asian Americans, and they worshipped the hell out of Kpop, to where if you didn't like it, you'd be considered "too white" for them. IDK if anyone has had similar experiences with groups like that.

Does anyone know any examples of "Professional" Musicians getting involved in VisualKei? All I can think of is percussionist Cato Isao and Music Professor/Session drummer Tetsuro, both of which played in bands with the same members, JyuLie and GossiP. As well as the entire lineup of CrowXClass.
And I don't mean involved as in doing one song, but like actually being an integral part of the band
-
-
I'd guess we are talking about formally EDUCATED musicians right? 'Cause yeah most vk bands would be technically professional (although we can't rule out any and all who may also be working on the side to stay afloat loll!).
Love hearing all that about Matenrou Opera, it shows!
-
@reminiscing2004 Yeah, basically what @Elazmus said. Formally Educated Musicians, sometimes those who often play outside of Vkei, like in the case of Cato Isao, who nowadays is more known for preforming Samba music in Brazil instead of support for JyuLie lol.
Also, @Komorebi, that's very interesting! Thanks!

Here are the lyrics to Ogre by Cuartet along with what I think the structure is. Are you reaching cry of people 「Burst city」 you made is about to collapse <Violence><Politics><Crime><Disaster><Weather> be upset of all!! you made 「Burst city」 in these state foolish people do disturb of order (an atrocious crime) pretend ignorance is 「Burst city」 (a prosperity city) disregard of law is useless social 「Tell me your opinion of you!!」 note: at the bottom is a square, x, triangle, a komejirushi (※) and a circle, all of which are in between two hyphens. I have no idea what any of this means. Perhaps it's some weird symbolism? Or it's probably there for A E S T H E T I C Interestingly enough, there is a note at the bottom. 〜全英訳、咲〜, which basically says Saki wrote all the English himself. Yeah, that's kinda obvious. So determining the structure for this song is hard, because Saki gives even Ruki a run for his money on how badly they pronounce English. The first lyric really is "Be upset of all", then after the main riff ends, the first line is sung, 4 times. Only, he seems to end the first 3 ones at "made" (which he pronounces like mah-deh). Only the 4th repetition is sung fully. The words in <> are most likely the growling behind his singing. Then he says "Be upset of all" again. Now, the next lines are extremely hard to pinpoint. The line "you made 「Burst city」 in these state" is most likely what he's repeating 4 times in this part, until the growling kicks in. Then, "foolish people do disturb of order (an atrocious crime)" is growled 4 times. I don't think "An atrocious crime" is actually said though. But I could be wrong. Ditto with the line under it. Then finally, he screams "disregard of law is useless social". The final line, may be what the high pitched voice is trying to say, or the voice is just random, and the lyric is not actually said. IDK, I want to see if anyone has a different interpretation. Saki's grammar isn't as bad as some of the Vocalists from then, but his pronunciation is very lazy. I'll post the other lyrics I have sometime later
-
The lyrics for Cuartet's "Ogre" are all in surprisingly not that bad English, and I possibly could do a cover of it if I memorised them.
Only thing is, IDK which word goes were, because Saki is worse than his former bandmate Ruki at pronuniciation. -
Is Memento Mori's last live DVD worth buying? Or should I spend my money somewhere else?

Excited for this one. Hopefully we can see even more releases from them in the future
