There will be a ONEMAN for only 50 people in MARCH And a new album will be released in OCTOBER next year. That was the announcement...

Haha... did I give up an idea to write a band special review? I know this bands name but because of their happy look I somehow don't want to check their music out..

So what ya all think about this band? I still do think that there 2 first tracks are nicer than their new single. Even so I do like them and I hope they will keep up on releasing good tracks in the future. At least I can dig this new visual kei band. (and we all know that I'm so picky about bands...)

Sweet x Home is also one of new visual kei bands which we don't need to forget about to check them out. Aside their nice look they also know how to create good music. This single is maybe not that good as their last 2 songs which they released. (the one on the website and their last single) But that doesn't mean that this single is easy to enjoy. This single contains only 2 tracks.. lets see Paralysis It's a nice track which also reminds me a bit of "BOSS BATTLE in game" music but also it reminds me a bit of Acid Black Cherry (only little bit). This song is also easy to dance and jump on. Its an easy song to like. It's not a "WOW" song. But its totally fun to play. Life&Penalty In this track Kasuri voice comes out the best. Still this track doesn't do it that much for myself. But also it somehow has a cool "in game" melody. The song also starts way more heavy than the song actually is which is a pity, because I love heavy heavy heavy. But they do a good job in, heavy parts and slower parts. heavy, slow, heavy slower... they way a song doesn't get annoying to me. It's a nice B track and its stays a B track for me. Hopefully this band will grow into more greatness and keep on going to make quality music. Because the start is really good. I'm looking forward to the next releases.

After not such long while Xaa-Xaa gives us again a brand new single. 3 new tracks. The first track (Yuki Tokei) we all already know from youtube because they released the full PV on their official channel. It's a warm nice ballad. Kazuki's voice sounds really heart toughing what I totally love of this band. The melody of the song but also how this song is sung is totally played with feelings and warmth. Just as songs should be. It's no way that you could dislike this song. The 2nd track Tulip stats with a nice up-beating drum followed by nicely played guitar. Kazuki's voice sounds lesser warm but still damn rocking and warm. Somehow this song reminds me of a different song which I cannot come up with 1,2,3 (maybe a DEZERT song?) But the up-beating melody fits he song. only the "yai" or whatever sound it is, sounds a bit funny. which wasn't really need of to put inside. Also with this track Xaa-Xaa proofs that they are a great band. the 3rd track Waraitai kedo Waraenai is also an amazing song, however as people already said the end after the silence is simply useless. But hey we can cut that off the song. But its a nice upbeating song too, but a fast melody. nicely played. lesser warm voice but Kazuki's voice is great anyway. But I still miss some real heaviness inside this one. It could be more crazy and wilder. Xaa-Xaa is once again to put old style of music into a nice newer jacket without songs sound way to mainstream of these days. It's still one of the newest promised bands who also care to provide some good music aside their awesome look. I'm looking forward to the next release

Not only, also because his vocal is simple not everyones taste. But looking forwart to pirate dezerts new album. somehow I feel to lazy to buy their works. XD

If you think they suck, be free to write down in at least 2～3 sentences what they don't have in their music, the reason why you wouldn't love them. Would be nice and kind.

They aren't really visual kei, just a slight mix of it. Many of you did hear about the name because of the split single BLIND, which Yazzmad also contributed too. However still many of you call them a boring next core band or whatever... Even someone told me that the vocalist should get some vocal lessons, because his voice sucks.... I truly think they are way underrated. However to me E.T brings back nostalgia. To me they sound as the sound we got into in the years 2000. Remembering all those cool Metal and Nu-Metal bands. Maybe also bit of screamo. You know bands such as KORN, limp bizkit, system of down, papa roach, crazy town, blink 182, rammstein, etc etc etc... Which they a bit mixed of the core metal of these days. Yet I think people here should maybe try to give them a change more before saying that they suck until having ever listing to a full release. Their music is pretty easy to get via Closet Child or Puresound. Also they still sell all their CD on live gigs and they are truly worth to visit a concert from if you are in Tokyo. They play often with pretty good other bands which people love here. Next month they play a 2 man together with LAMENT in Ikebukuro Chop. Check out their Music Video of their song: I HATE ALL (lyric is fulling English (Engrish)) And to make it a bit more easy to check them out here SOUNDCLOUD: https://soundcloud.com/etjapan previews of ALL songs. And I still love their love for KORN

Kanji actualy reads as: *kado ___________________________________________________________________________________ ENGLISH: Translation: @DarkWater and Takiko At the backstreet where all voices crossed quietly a scenery was seen. Sunlight came through the shaking trees, the wind brought the scent of the early summer. I spitted out an answer out of my confined abandoned feeling I bluffed in all those letters, since I couldn't handle it. How long got I used to it even without any voice, while I was isolated in time? Standing at the window losing hope, the bright green thought made me cry. Every time I repaint my memories, that faded over the years. I never get tired of retelling them daily. The past never can come back if something happens, I'm accepting it even with regret. Without a break I will flow and will end the daily manner. With Sweetpain I grow up to be a man Will be alright With Sweetpain I grow up to be a man Whatever the thing it messed up my heart. I'll never can get rid of the innumerable regret... With Sweetpain I grow up to be a man Will be alright With Sweetpain I grow up to be a man Maybe it's alright With Sweetpain in my heart Will be alright grow up to be a man Maybe it's alright With Sweetpain in my heart Will be alright will be alright...I'm keeping going on.

pff 3000 yen for only 6 songs....

Yo folks, We got SOUNDCLOUD, Facebook, Twitter, audioleaf, myspace reverbnation... You know those websites. Are there any more popular websites which you can promote your own band on, with cool futures and such... Or are those simply the best and most known?? I'm not talking about "bandcamp" Also since YOUTUBE RED started to see light in this world to which other video streaming website a band should go? Dailymotion? Vimeo?

lol 2,160円 3 songs and a PV... manmanman someone loves money too much

I'll take Janne Da Arc - ANOTHER STORY 池袋アルパ店 特典 3€ Janne Da Arc - コメントカセット3€ please with HQ rip ( ) shipping is Netherlands~

nobody? it's really not that much.

Kiwamu also kicks off bands from label if they sell to less CD/DVD

I know many of you do use wordpress blog to create fancy newsblog. However wordpress has an own build in subscribe form. But that one is a widget only and cannot added in a page. Now some annoying america-jin ask her to add a subscribe form like this wordpress blog has: http://themccordlist.com/showroom-magazine-sign-up/ Its added in a page. So not in a sidebar. I've checked the plugin but you need to give so many information to even make it work such as your home or company address. So, are there any good plugins for a subscibe form, which you can add on a page but not on a sidebar widget only? I onlh found newsletter plugins. But I need something that people can subscribe to the blog and get updates each time a new blog post has been made. Thanks. Even... wth does subscribe to a blog if ya also can bookmark it...?

got a cd signed like that too.. So I did cut the plastic that it was small enough to fit in the cdcase lol XD

yeah totally to bad that we don't have one more great pv.

twisted clock will be gone is calmando qual is also gone. twisted clock was just a name change. But let's hope that they will restart under a different name. At least I don't think Kiwamu would allow them to continue as calmando qual? (without giving him a big donation of course... lol) But yes, lets wait, we will know hopefully shortly after their disbandment our who knows even more soon?

It is. But if we check starwave bands only 2? Didn't disband all others did disband. So I think if a band doesn't want to be under kiwamu... Maybe they should disband or to pay fees to kiwamu? At least I cannot imagine that this band really wanted to disband.... I think that something did piss off hibiki very very much. But what? Don't know. Also... they wrote after Livert announcement of that they had an announcment on their oneman, that they will have an announcment too. Hibiki was good friend of the vocalist of livert. So.. livert kiwi trouble could been a reason too. I also think if qual really really wanted to disband that they would write down some real reason. They don't say why. Also hibiki said, that they will release a new cd and maybe some other nice things before they break up. And they break up months after livert... Don't know its all odd to me... Can't imagine that they break up because they wanna give up Calmando Qual....

Haha 15 fans... well in the meanwhile they got much much more fans. Onemans are filled well. So many people wrote that the disbandment annoucement was a big big shock.

Is there really nobody around who can check out a few translated lyrics if there are still mistakes inside for me?? From japanese to english. You would be a big help. Those are already nice translated but some don't feel smooth enough, so I wonder if there is someone willing to check with me. Of course you get all credits too.

Kiwamu knows how to break bands.... I'm sure its because of him. Maybe I will go to their last oneman.
