Hip-Hop

This is me for basically every genre I actively listen to. Even most bands I like I don't like all of their music, I only like a few albums here or there. 

The only classical music composer I actually ever actively listened to was Mozart, and that's mostly because one of his pieces was in a videogame I used to play alot xD

there's not any 'bands' on this genre lmao but I can't really stand classical baroque music except for a few composers like Bach, Buxtehude or Rameau  to name a few. These guys have write stuff for lute and some sonatas  that I really dig but I can't stand the rest of their music.

As a former Hip Hop person, I totally agree with you there! I notice often the best Rap comes from the 80's and 90's, back when rhyming and all was considered the mark of a skilled rapper. 
There is some modern rap I listen to occasionally, such as Childish Gambino, but yeah. Good rap is hard to find. 

I love some good HipHop/Rap with meaningful, deep (sometimes political) lyrics and a high skill level regarding the intelligent use of language, grammar, rhymes (native language is a plus)... Needless to say this stuff is quite hard to find and buried under a sh*tload of testosterone-driven gangster-stuff praising booty, booze, drugs, money and whatnot... D;
 
It does exist to, it's just like... rare...

Closer by the Chainsmokers sucks. 
F*ck, everything by them just f*cking sucks. I thought their song "Selfie" was just a joke.. turns out, "We ain't never getting older" repeated 848639751937567417^10*485018589 (A number so big, it's in scientific notation) times is not a joke, and it's authentically repetitive, generic trash. 
And the general public eats that sh*t up! I don't see what's so appealing about a bunch of autotuned guys saying the same double negative in an amount so big, it, it has to be in Scientific notation.
Then again, it's pop music. Why am I annoyed if I don't even listen to it? Because IT'S EVERYWHERE. Everywhere I go, I hear that same song. How does it not get old for people? 
Am I just a "goth" person who only listens to trash, or am I the only one with a brain that gets annoyed with monotony? 

I mean, most pop music is boring anyway, since that's only what the labels will throw money at because it's less risky in the long run, but I had no idea honestly it'd get this low xD. Part of me feels elitist, but at least I'm not like other people and I acknowledge it's valid music. May be ear raping music, but still music. (It's kind of like with all the art that's being made these days. I may not like it, but I'll defend it's status as art because, art can be found in anything and there is always some loophole xD.)
Plus, the general public (Especially in my ultra religious area) would call my music "sinful", so I guess on both sides, me and the general public are even xD

They truly are. You know how much I love Kuroyuri, and Dezert has become my new obsession because they're so good! Especially their bassist. Good bass players are rare in Vkei. Chiaki is also an amazing vocalist. I love how feminine the vocals are

kuroyuri to kage and DEZERT just saved my visual kei nu-metal needs
they are the best nowadays

All I've heard about them is how they blocked a fan on Twitter, for saying they only make music, so they can get to meet models.
 
 
Some people worship really boring  music these days. xD

never listened to the chainsmokers but i thought for a loooong time they were an indie band until i actually went on their wiki page one day 

This sh*t better be real

Ryoga +
I dig Kuroyuri to Kage vo though, RIR's Kuro was probably my fav new found over the past few years.
 

Oh, I just remembered. I once came across this girl who was like "Kuroyume isn't VisualKei! They're Jpop!" and I told her "Um, they really don't like the label "Pop", and their poppy stuff, is quite complex and creative compared to most pop rock.". I also pointed out their more Metal early releases and she was like "It may have been Metal, but it's still pop because the riffs were catchy".
Like, I don't think "Shin'ai Naru Death Mask" is "catchy". Also, the main riff to Kurui Dorei sounds like Metallica's "The Shortest Straw". I don't think Metallica could ever be considered pop (Well, at least before the black album. OOPS). In fact, Kurui Dorei is even heavier than some of Metallica. Totally "Jpop"
Also, the fact their biggest inspirations are D'erlanger and Dead End (Kiyoharu even got his early look from Kyo of D'erlanger) kind of shouts VISUALKEI.

This shit right here. Under Syndrome's Sleaver PV. A band using the manji/swastika because of religious reasons is understandable and nothing to debate about. But you really have to be a fool to overlook the obvious Nazi imagery when it's a friggin' swastika on a Nazi armbinder, which is even attached to a SS style unifrom/dress. 
And yeah, I am aware that bands did in fact use this as a way to shock. Doesn't excuse to say "It's certainly not having to do with Nazis at all!!!"

Kaya has announced on his twitter that he is pregnant with a "fetus of sodom".
 
 
 
Congratulations!! Any bets on who the baby daddy is?

Isn't Oshare the western way of calling it? I heard in Japan, they call it Osare

When people pronounce oshare kei like oh share, like sharing is caring. I used to do this, but I went to a VK panel at a con where the girls running it pronounced it like that.

The most I've seen in interviews is him saying about how he can kill Kyo with a pebble, which honestly, I laughed hard at because, um... you sure about that Kisaki? Kyo still may be short, but since you left La:Sadie's, he's been working out, whereas you're still skinny xD.
I also know Kyo also sometimes talks about his hatred for Kisaki in interviews. But I couldn't care less what each have to say about eachother, as it's all immature bickering from two immature people. One is an alcoholic man-teenager with daddy issues and temper issues, and the other is an arrogant 40 something year old stuck in his 20's who is indecisive, doesn't know when to stop, doesn't know when to shut up, and possibly has some sort of god complex. 
I could go on about both, but you get my point. Neither are perfect people, and they're gonna hate eachother, and they're gonna keep being in their f*cked up state unless they get help, and I'd really love to see both get mental help, but that doesn't look like it'll happen any time soon, sadly.

Not used of dark lipstick but I think I like it.
 

 
 

I think one album that really defines my time here is Memento Mori's first album, along with the EP that came after (Haikei Haranbanjou Hiyori). I play both at the same time generally because they really represent what Memento Mori was at the time. A new personality on the Vkei scene that came straight out of the small tokyo indie scene. They weren't your normal Dear Dolce band (definitely not Piece). These guys were much darker, and much heavier. They normally had traditional influences, but showed they weren't above making western style horror songs too. Normally, Shinjou Kasumi chose really crappy throwaway bands for his label, but I feel as if he got 3 choices right: Reload, Raddock, and Memento Mori.  
Both their first album, and the first EP, will always hold a special place in my heart.
Why does it represent my time here? It was the original reason I joined, tbh xD
