I thought this was already announced here. (laugh)
 

 
 
Last year it was announced that Silver-Rose will make his comeback, however not with the old line-up.
Vocalist YOWMAY restarted the band with 4 new members. 
 
Gt. Zoo
Gt. YOU-K
Ba. KAPPY
Dr. ShuLa
(check vkgy for their band history)
 
Joined along to raise up Silver-Rose again!

Actually the band should restarted this year with a nice tour around Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka, sadly due covid-19 this tour plan has moved to next year.
Yet the 2nd live of the band will be (hopefully) on August 1st. 
 

 
And maybe an interesting thing is... even if 99% of their fanbase see them as Visual Kei, they still refuse to call themselves Visual Kei.
More about that reason you can discover in their upcoming interview which I will publish on July 16th!  Look forward to it!

I actually really agree with this. But I also don't think there's really a downside to having more skill, which will just expand the tools the singer has to express the music. (How effectively they use those tools is a matter of the musicianship/artistry.)
 
There's also a big element of personal taste. I remember listening so some "indie" playlist on Spotify a few years ago and every single vocalist was using the same style breathy/whiny vocals. I'm sure some people love that style and I can acknowledge that it's an intentional stylistic choice the singers were making that did work with their music, but that doesn't mean I would ever listen to it again. Maybe in very small doses I could appreciate that style, but it very quickly became grating for me.
 
U sounds like a lot of pop punk/emo vocalists to me, but a bit more nasally. I agree it works with the music style, and it's more listenable to me the breathy indie vocals (but that's just my personal opinion).

It's not really the matter of a vocalist skill.. 
It's more does a vocalist sing along to the music which fits his voice?
 
You can take KLACK's vocalist U for an example
That dude, well he is unskilled, truly bad singer.
But....the way KLACK's music fits his bad singing is just perfect and amazing
 
 
 
 
 
Well there is more.... these songs are maybe his best anyway

after buying music I prefer to play via spotify anyway, because of playing also gives an artist little money.... even if it takes 1000 of plays.. takes hours but well. o.o 
 
but selling via tunecore isn't cheap too... you gotta need some good sales to earn the cost money back 😅
however sometimes they have cheaper or free offers for a limited period. 

This time I have an interview with ex-RE:VEIN bassist 彪(Aya) 
 
 
Born in Otaru, Hokkaido.
In the spring of 2018, Aya launched her own solo project and started to work as a singer-songwriter as well as a bassist.
The concept is “true self“. Because I wanted to make myself known as a person through my own music.
Aya’s music does not glorify suffering, nor does it force anyone to sympathize, but rather it expresses feelings of her own.

Yah after buying is a good way to do it! 
Breaking even on tunecore is not hard from itunes or amazon music sales but if the trend of people using only streaming continues without change in policy god diggaly dang yah, for a full album price youll need a buttload of streams (　 人　 ) ﾟдﾟ) #musiciansneedpizza

vkgy latest interview, with a famous vkei writer! 
Also I worked hard on this one so it's a cross post with JROCKNROLL
 
Nagasawa Tomonori (長澤智典) is a music journalist of note, having written for most major visual kei magazines and bands. We had the chance to ask him questions over several weeks, and so we explore his career, and his decades-long view of visual kei from the inside.

If there are people who still have any questions about the "visual kei" history, we can do another round  
So if you do have any questions, throw them to me and I'll will ask them!
