you know DAMN well who

I wish,,

but I truly have no clue who this dude is...

o.o 

ehh who?

they didn't gave any reason....

so maybe it's due the COVID-19...

no gigs, no money. 

Night Pirates formed in December 2004 in Fukushima.  Mainly active in Tohoku and Tokyo. They released five albums. Also the band played together with; The Checkers, Rock’n’Roll Gypsyes, Cools, PRIVATES, Mr. Hiroya Uchida, etc.

The band has kept growing their own live performance style since starting the band and it has never been changed. The performance makes the audience be united with the band, being with an attractive performance, definite skills to play music and their policy to have poppy rock.

Fukushima FM-POCO’s personal program “Ode-Night Pirates” enters its 11th year.
ON AIR during! (76.2MHz, Friday 20: 00-21: 00, Sunday 18: 00-19: 00 (RE))

Today's interview is with newcomer visual kei band BIS (ビス).

Hello folks, this time a bit more special interview,

I'm sure some of you know their name, since this band is known for a bunch of anime and game OP/ED.
You might could know them from the animes: Togainu no Chi, SoniAni: Super Sonico The Animation and ramatical Murder
But also from gams such as: DRAMAtical Murder ReCOИИECT
Two of their CD's can still be bought on CDJAPAN and two of their CD's can be purchased in the itunes store!

Also vocalist Ken1 is  from Valentine D.C  so his voice is surely not unknown to a bunch of us! 

I hope you guys will enjoy the interview.

Today we have an exclusive interview with vkei band GLIM GARDO.

GLIM GARDO is so new that they've yet only performed secret lives, but their music has already gained attention. Vocalist Sakuya (朔弥) has a melodic yet powerful (almost metal-esque) voice that contrasts nicely with the contemporary heaviness of the instrumentals—and all of this is wrapped nicely in the skin of a dark, dramatic fairy tale.

Read on to meet this band that we're expecting a lot from.

Hibiki from SARRMATH, THE HIGH GRIP (ex-calmando qual)

There's really nothing bad about this dude at all....

Also all Calmando Qual members don't really have anything done really bad...

Kenka, is simply heavy beer drinker

Tak, never did hear any bad words about him 

Maya, a fan once said he didn't gave some fangifts to the other members (lol), (but surely fixed problem)

Can't say that I've ever heard any bad stuff.

i've report it to twitter...

that's kinda animal abuse....

If MEGA took down that folder, then they may take down yours too, colorful人生. Consider reuploading your files somewhere else, like YouTube, in which as long as the videos are unlisted it's pretty much safe. Other good streaming services for piracy are VK.com, as mentioned above, youku.com and bilibili.com. In those, videos are almost never taken down for any reason.

Way ahead of you. All of my files are backed locally and I have secondary accounts for all folders. If a folder gets taken down I can just paste another link. I'm thinking of making a YouTube account (obv. not a franchise channel so different gmail, etc.) to host all the content. That will take quite long, so I'll hold off that idea until it starts getting dicey.

I did took the folder down myself..... 

and you better don't upload to youtube.... even if you use a different "gmail etc"  it will be taken down for sure. 😛

Your MEGA folder was taken down https://mega.nz/#F!JYUT1ATY!CD9GhA29uQ0T1UDPAjTWlg. Is there any way you can re-upload the contents in there, please?

sorry won't.

thank the user on vk.com you still can get it there.

Hope he recovers good and hopefully this is a warning to everybody that corona is something you need take serious....

This time I share with you an interview of a vocalist of a band who was popular end 80's early 90's, played in bigger halls than now.

The band official restated again in 2018 and also this year they planned a ONEMAN tour in small live halls (200-300 capacity), we still pray that the tour won't be canceled due the CORONA virus.

Their old music can be found on itunes and spotify.  

Also for THE MINKS

You never too old, never give up your dreams!

It's an interview which let you smile and laugh (^o^)

3rd world reading this

For them I would prefer ghostsharing. but if they can pay for internet, they might be rich enough to buy a song once in the while too... and spotify works for them too. So no excuse.

What I think is super weird is that really really indie bands embrace streaming, big-time bands are just starting to embrace it (thanks to L'arc starting that trend), but mid-tier or big in the indies scene labels completely refuse? Like, why are Loop Ash, Plug, PSC, or Speed-disk's catalogs not available? It's so weird.

They surely have some reasons and you can guess one of those reasons.

btw i sure as hell hope that everyone preaching the gospel of ''dude you gotta support my anime boys!'' has never ever bought any second-hand cds or downloaded any releases themselves because that would be extremely hypocritical and embarrassing for everyone👀

Well if you buy second-hand because you cannot buy an original copy anymore it does no harm. And we also know that buying from Japan still can cost more than buying it from someone second handed, but that doesn't mean that everyone wouldn't download a release a all on the legal way. But yes, if you never would have supported a band by buying a CD and actually not willing to buy a release digitally then it's hypocritical.

I agree with this.

I also think if we want to gain more trust and respect from visual kei bands but also from their fans is to not act as a "shit" "I dont' care" gaijin.

Digital music isn't that expensive to buy via various platforms. 

We can listen to it freely via spotify (in most cases)

And some of us even have a subscription to google music, apple music or spotify premium.

But I only agree for the uploads which are also on spotify.

Releases which aren't on spotify are to me still "difficult to get".  because you don't have the legal opportunity to check it out freely for free first. 

will be streamed on youtube. 

THE HIGH GRIP,ex-Calmando Qual, SARRMATH vocalist Hibiki non-visual band.
Always rocking on stage, with lots of energy, shouting out his heart. A true rocker!
The band started in 2008, their bassist Kenka (now in SUNEMEGAMAFY) left the band
in 2013, however that didn’t stop them from continuing the way of ROCK’N’ROLL!
Also THG guitarist Moomin and drummer Shinzo are always full of power! Nowadays
THG is supported by Tsuyoshi and DAISUKE, both are also wonderful bassists.

Today we have an exclusive interview with new vkei band Astaroth.

Astaroth is an orthodox visual kei band who revealed themselves at what was advertised as a solo oneman by vocalist MISAKI, on January 16th of this year. The members have a strong connection to the Kansai (関西) scene, and they've drawn favor thanks to their promising first single.

The band talked to us about their inspirations and how their first steps toward activity have been so far.

Astaroth, thank you very much for agreeing to this interview.

Then if you don’t know what the situation in Japan is, shut up and go diss bands who try to do nice things elsewhere. 

I don't diss anything! =_=

I'm only worried that this project doesn't work out, because of the corona crisis.

jeezzzz

This was announced and planned before the corona crisis. 

I don't follow them, but if it already was announced....

Still it comes a bit in a shitty time, but still good that he don't stop this planned idea, hopefully people will keep up supporting so that a bag of money can be donated to the koalas.

Thats why things like ACACIA and Hard Koala are important. People seems to forget about stuff really fast these days. Everyday there is something new to worry about that the media will be bashing in our heads at left and right, but the animals are still there suffering from the fires aftermath and is important to still think about they too.

Yup, but I don't know how the situation in Japan is, but as a fan you also need money to support your favorite band, and if you cannot work and if you don't get paid... it's difficult to support this amazing project.

Hopefully D will announce later on a nice amount which was collected ^^

As far as I remember he said everything is going to help rebuild. Asagi is always donating for animal shelters and rescues anyways so this is expected of him.

still comes a little bit shitty in these corona crisis. but still it's amazing ^^

can someone just share his blog entry and translate it fully.... 

"since there won't be any comeback"

So it's disbandment them as a band. but they can come back under a new project together. 

Not bad isn't?
