    when Yoshiki was in British news because his scarf landed on the queen's shoulder during some horse racing event. half the publications called him "scarf lady"

    i'd be inclined to agree but whenever i mention DIAURA to someone (or when they see my DIAURA flyer on my wall) they almost invariably go "heh, diarrhea?" i always thought JILUKA had a nice ring to it. i feel like "Nocturnal Bloodlust" would also get you hyped to listen to them
  4. instead of sleeping i listened to kagerou all night. fuck

  9. i havent been paying attention to vk for a lil bit while i was dealing with some mental health issues, did i miss anything good?

      wellll, im probably not the best to take on the topic as I've been here all of two months and I, myself been catching up on 10-or-so years of vk BUT that said, here goes nothing, in no particular order: 

       

      - DIMLIM lost two members (gt. and bass), and the world held its breath for a while, but they've just announced an album for December (as a trio) so we can all rest easy for now

      - nokubura's future is still unsure, as right after the single supposedly dissing the two lost members, their new guitarist was caught with marijuana ~karma is a bitch~

      - Despa's Hizumi is back doing some electro vk and everyone and their mother is salty about it

      - Yoshiki continues to be an asshole, hardly a news at this point, he made a 10mln yen donation to Kyoto Animation, which is all well and good if he didn't milk it for publicity to the last drop; he also met the UK royal family, unsure if it's related

      - Yumeleep lost a drummer and I'm not entirely sure which side is the general public on, since there was shade thrown from both sides, as far as I know, related to internal bullying (I'm not really a fan so dunno)

      - there's a new band around - MOTHER - and that wouldn't be anything noteworthy if it wasn't for their, let's say unique, promo campaign, check out their thread XD

      - also not strictly vk, but there are some additions to forum rules so also check that out I guess

       

      that's about for the stuff I cared to remember from the past 2mo ^^;

  10. last.fm's layout continues to get worse

    1. God

      God

      i’d probably quit using it too, but i’m a big fan of being able to track things and keep stats for them.  it’s v satisfying.  maybe if someone made something similar to last.fm that did things better.  but it seems like people are more interested in tracking what shows/movies they watch than music.  dont get me wrong, i use sites for that kinda thing too.  it’s just cool to be able to look at my listening history too.

      I quite like the new layout of the artist pages actually, but the new 'recent tracks' part looks so lame, lol.

      Would be nice if they actually had a feed where we could see what the ppl we follow are listening to

  11. my fav thing about the yoshiki scarf thing is that the queen didnt even notice because shes like 150 years old and probably doesnt even know where or who she is

      She's probably a hologram at this point, lets face it (Actually, that would explain how Yoshiki's always everywhere too, hmm)

    3. Ruri

      she's actually been dead for a few years now. they just hook her up to a generator and shoot electricity through her whenever she needs to make a public appearance

    that's why i said *most* lol there's some good black metal but its mostly not for me. but thats just my opinion & i am nothing more than a dumbass online, dont take too much notice of it R-Shitei have a weird nationalist undercurrent, that's not really too surprising. they probably know the meaning but i don't think it indicates any genuine beliefs, just good ol vk shock value
  13. Ruri

    (・ω・ )ノ hey guys whats going on in this thre- Σ(・Д・;;) (・Д・ ;;) =3 im outta here
  14. Ruri

    yeah, black metal nazism is some serious shit, and kinda scary to think about. the shock-value nazi imagery in vk and the occasional thing they have against foreigners in the bangya community is nothing in comparison another difference is that vk is good and most black metal sounds like a stray dog being beaten to death with a tambourine
  15. Ruri

    i see kpop fans decrying toxicity in their fandom and im like. psshh if only u knew

    LIPHLICH
  17. Ruri

    i really like tsuzuku's clean singing but not like his banshee squealing when he does harsh vocals. its rough and he oversells it but that works for me. compositionally i think they were fantastic. definitely pretty unique & probably one of my favs just for that i simply cannot will myself to care about 8p-sb though
  18. Ruri

    the only other genre i know of that has an abundance of ambiguous nazism is black metal, and it's funny to think that it shares that in common with squeaky-clean azn femboy pop-rock

    jajajajajajajajaja XD

    i found his voice grating the first time i listened to them but it kinda grew on me. i have a real soft spot for dramatic over-singing tho
  22. Ruri

    mejibray... i don't get why people don't like them tbh
  23. wonder why he'd leave it 12 years to do that also, this feels really odd to me because the start of their hiatus lines up almost exactly with when i started getting into vk
  24. all the best visual kei is made between 1979 and 2019. after that it really goes to shit

      I'm just glad my favorite band still puts out good consistent music. Cuz I agree, some of it now is not as good as back in the day.

      this status was just supposed to be a joke about how i like all vk. i don't think vk is going to end in 2019 :<

    3. Gesu

      Gesu

      Ooh... gomen.

      To be fair, though, I don't think it'll end, either. It just probably might not be as great as it is now (I hope that's not the case and that it continues to improve). Who knows?
