    It's funny how at the time of MYV doing the Kvki Boiz stuff, it seemed to have huge mixed reception in the foreign communities. People were shocked by him having like mc hypemen and a DJ.

     

    In hindsight, especially considering what he's done in the last decade, that period was so fucking inspired and unique ..

      Lucky you! @Jigsaw9 It was definitely one of the best eras for him live.. I've gotten so much playtime out of this dvd

      I hated that entire period, but I'll always respect Tomomi for staying sane enough managing this mess and calling Sugizo's digits. their collab single was that periods saving grace

      I was binging live clips last night. It's just crazy how tight/good they sounded live. Every solo is nailed, the switch between harsh and clean vocals -- I could go on forever. Too good!

    Does anyone know if Sherow Artist Society is still a thing? There site still hasn't been updated since like 2008, so I'm wondering if the label is still responsible for anyone

    1. suji

      suji

      Fuck, that's a good question. MU was the only band in that label recently, but I believe they're on hiatus as they kicked their vocalist out...other than that, it's just there...?

    2. Zeus

      Zeus

      only bands i remember on that label were matenrou, versailles, and MU. the first two are still on the label but are managed by major labels and SAS gets a cut. idk if kamijo is doing anything with it or not but it's not gone just not active.

    3. Lestat

      Lestat

      I believe Sherow Artist Society gradually merged with Chateau Agency (Kamijo's production office, since 2014) and became one entity with the latter name.

    2. reminiscing2004

      reminiscing2004

      What do you think is troubling you about it? :o

       

      I was kind of uncertain at first, but once I figured a theme I was having fun

    3. platy

      platy

      @reminiscing2004I was confused what theme to go with, so I decided to challenge myself with a type of music that I don't listen to very often and so I'm finding it hard to pick songs to go on it :shock: It's my fault, but it's a good challenge to myself! 

       

      I'm very curious to find out what others have picked as a theme :roll:

    Maria Cross's "Sex" came in my head while cooking...

     

    Is this a turning point in my life?

    Listening to Phantasmagoria for the first time in years, and I'm having flashbacks of 5th grade. We were on a field trip and this girl asked me what my favorite song was. And my answer to her was "Kousoukyoku -Variant Jihad-".

    1. Hohchicano96

      Hohchicano96

      Fuck, I just remembered playing BAISER's En fleur for a guy while on a bus heading towards some landmark during a field trip in Washington D.C. when I was in eighth grade.

    3. Himeaimichu

      Himeaimichu

      Where I live, if I told ANYONE my favourite song was "Variant Jihad", yeah they'd probably turn the bus around and turn me into the police. (It didn't help that younger me had a short lived fascination with Middle Eastern aesthetic...)

      Is it really just ~1000yen on amazon.jp? I think this has a good 10-20 songs since i think i read its their complete disco plus unreleased songs?

    3. reminiscing2004

      reminiscing2004

      @filth_yIt is only 9 songs, but with an S.E. track as well according to discogs. Just one new track, the rest re-recorded from the looks of it

      And yeah thats what all the distro's are selling it at :o

    1. The Moon

      The Moon

      hifumi imo!

    2. Ada Suilen

      Ada Suilen

      Utakata, definitely.

    3. monkeybanana4

      monkeybanana4

      As @Ada Suilen mentioned, Utakata for sure! Shiki and Shiroi Uso are some pretty sad songs as well.

  11. reminiscing2004

    early kagrra, is love

    1. nekkichi

      nekkichi

      I miss early psc sfm these days

       

      had a blast of newfound love for this song in particular, but kaggra, is next in my ~nostalgic4teenyears~ playlist

    2. reminiscing2004

      reminiscing2004

      early PSC is all of my favorite shit. the early 2000's due le quartz, miyavi, gazette, kagrra, alice nine, hanamuke is the stuff i have so so so so much love for.

       

      Great post, i love the gazette's uber emotional songs from the era. juunana sai, ito, okuribi, miseinen.

       

      I don't know how else to express my profound agreement. nostalgia YES

  12. reminiscing2004

    Anyone know much about Atmos*note?

    1. suji

      suji

      All I know is that the singer transitioned to a woman after they disbanded, I believe.

    2. reminiscing2004

      reminiscing2004

      Ahh, interesting. I've been enjoying their songs on the Shock Edge 2003 and Decadence 2004 V.A.'s. Will reply back here if I ever find more, besides the generic info on vkdb/last fm. Thx!

      Follow your intuition! I'm open to anything, so please don't worry about my taste ^^

      I started reading this as "dressed up alice nine to watch alice nine" haha XD

      That's a piece of history though<3

      Dir en Grey 1999 Osaka-jo Hall. The atmosphere, the songs played, the cohesion of the performance is just perfect imo.

    if you were ever a fan of the band, the new Killie is a must buy. decent sounding re-recordings, the densest release yet. instantly enjoyable if you've listened to their other recordings.

     

    a perfect summary of their work, only shame is that it wasn't released a decade earlier when it could have caused some more waves....

     

    not quite as cohesive in a conceptual way as some of their other releases, but serves the purpose of a great album, in the more traditional sense.

      holy shit, I'm really impressed. thank you so much, I 100% would have never found this otherwise @colorfuljinsei

    Any diehard fans know what G.A.L.D. or F.T.O. stand for? I've just noticed I never really tried to figure it out

    1. IGM_Oficial

      IGM_Oficial

      Urban dictionary knows it all

    2. Zeus

      Zeus

      F.T.O. = fight the order
      G.A.L.D. = giving all love dearly

      these are just my best guesses

  22. reminiscing2004

    a video tradeoff sounds really interesting. same concept as the standard mix tradeoff, but your mix is made up of music-related video clips. can be all music videos, or all live bootlegs, or all pro-shot, or anything in between. definitely might take a bit more effort, but I really like the idea of trying to make a consistent theme across a bunch of clips

    1. suji

      suji

      that sounds like a cool idea!

    2. platy

    had a dream Leda was playing Keyboards in a new band under the alias "Sew ooo", and there was a bunch of random new (nonexistent in reality) VK songs I found that I thought were great, and I was really excited because I felt that this was a breakthrough, and that I could now triumphantly say "there is great new visual kei!! my nostalgia ends here"
