  1. Funny how early DeG, Gazette and Nightmare were capable to do really melancholic and emotional songs without sounding like a "ballad"

      this is like the "VK" "emo" phenomenon to me. so many bands really nail this at some point in their career. and its totally what has stayed with me, when bands more straightforward rock/metal vibe loses its sway with time.

       

       

  2. Kuroyuri, Grieva and Gossip were the Holy Trinity of AINS.that could've lasted for more years...what a shame...

      I'm legitimately surprised they haven't been signing anyone new. 2 of their main bands, and all but one (?? I think???) of their """"secret bands"""" are gone now.

      Me too

      Perhaps they couldn't find anything interesting yet

  3. Yuuki (ex unsraw) is the king of teasers. can't fuckin wait any longer

  4. The ex Kuroyuri to kage members are absolutely prohibited to come up with shitty projects after the disbandment !!!!!!

      I'm too afraid to even say anything aloud.

      Even though that picture of Mei in Rose Valley haunts me, but there's no way. No way.

  5. At least the mediocrity of BORN and late Sadie turned up into two decent bands,but MEJIBRAY...what a horrible ending.

      i didnt get it lol

      What did you want to expect from Mejibray other than that

      Something better than all that we've seen so far?

  6. So many albums coming out this year ...I just can think about CHEDOARA by DIMLIM.

  7. just got into gibkiy gibkiy gibkiy,and i'm blown away...so raw,so hypnotic,so much passion. amazing stuff!

    1. Mamo

      Mamo

      Go to the artist topic glad you like them. They're fuckin' amazing!!

    2. Naaaaani

      Naaaaani

      They got some really sick riffs, awesome guitar work

    3. Mamo

      Mamo

      Beautifulguitar work and vocals, also brilliant bass lines as well as can be expected from Nagoya bands.

  8. If Kyouki (ex Grieva) come back in a non-90's vk style band,it won't make sense. (Just come back in any way lol )

  9. Shiawase na hibi by the gazette is so melancholic that almost makes me cry

    1. Shmilly

      Shmilly

      ironic considering the song is called 'happy days'

  10. i wonder if kuroyuri to kage have any unreleased stuff.it's been more than one year since their last release.

  11. So...Ningen wo Kaburu still boring af. =/

    1. EvilHippy

      EvilHippy

      It is 😕 Utafumi at least was pretty headbang inducing.
      Although, I think that "BLESSING TO LOSE HEART" part will be popular among fans during gigs.

    2. Manji 卍

      Manji 卍

      i didn't like much utafumi either,but at lives it has a completely different feel.and perhaps the  same happens with nigen wo kaburu.but it's not a track that i'll ever care to listen...but somehow i feel like the upcoming album is going to have way much more fun than ARCHE

  12. BURZUM shouldn't have retired from the metal scene,he's a genius.

    1. suji

      suji

      The videos he makes nowadays are the complete opposite, they're just ramblings of a madman stuck in the 50s...

    2. Manji 卍

      Manji 卍

      honestly,i never liked him as a person,i was just interested in his work as a metal musician.

      those albums he has recorded after prison were outstanding

  13. Am I the only who's missing the Gore/violence of the 80's, 90's and early 2000's animes?

    1. Lestat

      Lestat

      Watch the first season of Terra Formars. This season’s Grancrest Senki also doesn’t back down on the violence. 

    2. Peace Heavy mk II

      Try Card Captor Sakura -Clear Card- 

    3. Manji 卍

      Manji 卍

      for sure,card captor sakura is the number one on my top gore/violent anime

  14. the new GHOST album "Prequelle"  is a letdown !!!!!

    1. 123Sandman321

      123Sandman321

      Sure, that line is absolutely horrible, but Forge's lyrics were never anything particularly stellar.

       

      Nevertheless, how does a single line encompass the quality of a whole album?

    2. Bear

      Bear

      Another fantastic Ghost album, just like I expected. Superb!

    3. Manji 卍

      Manji 卍

      Well,guys... it's a matter of personal taste.even on YouTube there's tons of different reviews of this album,not just that line,but 70% of the album didn't capture my attention, was completely different from what I expected.composition-wise it's not mediocre at all,it was well executed ,however,Tobias said it would be darker,black plague, apocalypse,stuff like that,but it just didn't please me.good that you guys enjoyed that.

  15. it's beyond comprehension the number of bands that KORN has influenced.

    1. karai · ebi

      karai · ebi

      I've known so many people who wanna shit on korn or poke fun at me for still listening to them but right, uhh yea hello?

      It's one thing if they don't like the kind of music, but if anyone out there is listening to Derivative Band #??? and not acknowledging it, hmm...

    2. Manji 卍

      Manji 卍

      agreed.also many people hate on them cuz they speak about things that most people don't wanna know or hear about,but after all,they're a very successful band.their sound represented a new beginning for the metal history.you can hear a bit of Korn on many bands,dir en grey,gazette,kuroyuri,etc...

  16. is there any good japanese post punk band alive nowadays?

    1. zombieparadise

      zombieparadise

      PLASTICZOOMS plays around with post-punk a bit.

    2. Tokage

      Tokage

      Madame Edwarda are still around...

    3. Manji 卍

      Manji 卍

      Yes,I got into madame Edwarda recently and it really took me by surprise.even the recent stuff sounds like it were made in the early 80's

  17. Edgy the gazette "fans".  -__-"

  18. an acoustic guitar is better than a PS4

  19. Kuroyuri to Kage was and is my fav band,and still hard to believe that it's over...

  20. Arctic Monkeys  - Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino,such a good album

  21. ゴシップ (Gossip) tried desperatly to sound "catchy" in these last 2 albums,but it simply didn't work.

    1. VkBrutaliaN

      VkBrutaliaN

      ...well, worked for me. ;D

      although i wouldn't necessarily say they tried to be catchier than usual but imo their 2 full lengths are by far some of their best releases they've put out so far. but like always since taste can differ so much...

    2. Manji 卍

      Manji 卍

      to me, their compilation album released before has a completely different feel.the production,the guitar tone,everything was so much better. i respect your opinion.i just have a problem with these two albums,all the previous releases were perfect to me.

  22. black metal is more than music...

    1. suji

      suji

      black metal is life ✝

  23. 85% of  the western deathcore bands should listen to DEVILOOF and learn how to make tasteful Deathcore,instead of these stale shit.

    1. 123Sandman321

      123Sandman321

      Would be great, but I think that the western deathcore fanbase is the bigger problem. Too unforgiving and terrified or any kind of evolution.

    2. Elazmus

      Elazmus

      "western deathcore" ...... "learn" ..... "tasteful"...

  24. Visual Kei needs a new good punk band

    1. CELESTIAL CIEL

      CELESTIAL CIEL

      no one can replace sex-android...

      Manji 卍

      they're good but i don't like much his voice.would be nice and refreshing to have

      a new one in the same style

  25. Speaking about atmospheric black metal, there's a thin line between spellbinding riffs and boring repetition.
