Edgy face reveals. Unless you're a really popular/established musician making a surprising comeback, there's just no need for it and it kind of defeats the point of VK being a visually striking genre that jumps out at you the moment you see it. It's meant to get your attention and not being able to see the members just completely takes that aspect of it away. I do believe that the music is more important than the visuals but in such a stylised genre, you're taking a huge (and usually stupid/arbitrary) risk by obscuring yourself like that and more often than not, they fail to live up to the high expectations they give to the people waiting to see what they look like with mediocre music. It kind of adds insult to injury, imo.

Still being a session band, however session band ASIA decided to be a more formal band.
They opened twitter, announced their members and they shared a band photo.
 
 
Vo. Sora seems to be ex.少年団. but I've no clue which position he had in that band... 

I also will react to this topic.
 
I've listened to more songs on their youtube.. and all their previous songs are just  bad, shit visual kei music.. not even amazing rock quality, just typical boring visual kei, with no heart with no feelings just.... no.
 
 
but the new song...
The beat, the melody, the kinda vocal sound...
It all mix nicely together as a perfect mix.... it really though your heart.
Truly 10/10 song.
And believe me it is. 
 
Lately I only listen to masterclass rock music. music who is played by bandguys who are longer in the music world as those young dudes. music of people who know what music is.  I follow lot's of "legend Japanese rock stars (which most of you never did hear off tho lol)"  
So because of that I became very picky of what GOOD music is. 
 
 
However, I call this song really a master piece. it's a perfect song, easy to like, it touch your heart.
vocal fits perfectly to the melody....
 
 
But by listening to their previous songs,, I kinda doubt their their album will only contain this masterclass songs. 
 
 
If they will release more music like this... then I surely will support them.
I'm looking for this kind of visual kei bands, who really put everything into music.
 
 
if you dislike this kind of sound,
well then. you really don't have a good taste for music.

I am totally with you Bren, even if their earlier songs were so good, especially Aizou ni tsuki... (my favourite). First Dezert surprised me in changing their style, especially last year with Black Hole, and now Dimlim is following the same path and are doing it REALLY WELL. I don't get why people gets so pissed if a band experiments in a good manner, while there are acts that should stick to what they do best, because they do it BAD (see Initial'L, formerly Lycaon, or Mejibray's Tsuzuku and Koichi with their splendid shit-fest named 8P-SB). So I can't wait to hear what MISC will offer to my ears

What's so not VK about the video?

they still do some layered atmospheric electronic arrangements, but the pacing, agression and variety of their first album is gone.
 
"for the future" is the closest thing misc. has to first cheoadara tracks, and it's not that good.
 
I'm going through the samples again, and "to fool" (with the layered manic laughing track and sho's babby whispering etc that mainstream bands never throw in their music) is a good example of them still doing the most stereotypical vk sound - it's just not heavy.

Well, our passion for Dimlim made us go off-topic but...
 
Despite being a complex matter to approach, and also the fact that there isn't analysis available on the matter (at least in English), VK actually is a genre. There being a lot of variation and diversification both sonically and visually between bands of the scene doesn't necessarily conclude into VK bands don't having a LOT of things in common to make them part of a whole 'scene', in many levels (sound and visuals, but also other aspects related to production of the artists, their promotion, fans' rituals, etc., VK culture per se).
 
'Genre', 'movement', 'scene', call it the way you like. 'VK', as other things, exists by virtue of patterns of key elements that repeat all over their products no matter their differences between; in the end, that is what make their producers, bands themselves, us the fans, people inside and outside the scene, pick the term 'visual kei' to describe some music projects, and not 'glam rock', 'goth', 'punk' or 'metal' instead, in the way of deciding what music to listen according to our tastes.

tbh I'll personally consider them fully "no longer VK" once their set lists no longer include majority of their copycat d.i.d. era and they spend at least a year w/o backtracking into the scene again.
 
if you're calling ur little personal vanity music project non-visual while still throwing ambitiosus principles as a concert ender on every gig it really doesn't feel that ReaL or AuthentiQ

They are 100% visual kei, even the melody is vk lol
but it's perfect vk.
 
perfect melody and perfect vocal.
because melody and vocal it fits 100%. 100% in harmony.
 
 
non visual kei bands truly play different melody and also different vocal.
