So,it seems the Dadaism series of mini albums ends at the number #3 at last
hope their music can change as well from the jazzy/half-heavy/ballad to something more exciting,because they have quality on their music,
but since Dadaism #3 i can't get rid of this "meh" feeling. judging by the usual "circus" concept on their new look,the flow won't change much...let's see
 
 
but......KIDS WAR!!!!!!!!!

They're really doing the most aren't they. I hope this has some variation and some interesting aspects. Definitely at least one particularly heavy song, one good ballad. I feel like they're really throwing together a ton of ballads that sound the same.

I still can't wrap my head around the logic of announcing a release before it's been recorded (or even written). I want a new GazettE album more than any of you, but dude, what were they thinking?!

Can someone please tell Ruki that it's  "Last heaven of mine" 

i think the songs UGLY, DOGMA AND ONMIOUS resumes the types of tracks we can expect for the new album (could be possible a jazzy song?)
Ruki screams had a great improvement compared to the past 3 albums before dogma.i wonder if they gonna add something really new for this record or just get heavier.anyway,i'm very hyped as well

I hadnt noticed it before but the text in the logo reads "The world moves with killing and being killed"

i didn't have a top 5 for worst sentences i've read on this forum,but for sure i can start with yours
The final and Kasumi  were good re records and if you didn't like them,the original ones will be always there.

This only makes me sad,Zoro was my fav band,and their disbandment as a duo still unacceptable to me because they were doing so fucking well with those unique electronic/rock  songs. Now that ryuji is finally back,I can't find his new material anywhere,it just pisses me off

Talking about the new three re recorded tracks,just hope that fukai goes like" The Final" re record.same structure but with their current production,and beautiful dirt sound like a violent deathmetal like the re record of Zan was. And The lllD empire I really don't know what to expect,just wanna get really surprised by this one

If I can get hold of the kanji I'll get on it  

Went ahead and translated this addicting song by request from @platy. Although I work in translation I don't have much experience translating lyrics but I hope you guys enjoy.
 
Just a couple of notes. For anyone that doesn't know, "ojamashimasu" doesn't really have a direct translation. It literally translates to "I'm going to be a nuisance/bother" and is usually used when entering someone's house in Japan to acknowledge that your host is allowing you to "intrude" (enter) their house. Although "ojamashimasu" is said multiple times throughout the song I tried to translate it in various ways that I personally believe conveys the meaning of their usage in the song better. The whole song is one big perverted metaphor for intruding on, or more specifically violating a girl.
 
Note: "Chome" is one part of Japan's crazy address system and denotes districts of a town. The song basically travels through different districts (district 1, district 2 etc) which are also metaphorical. He's going to ojamashimasu every part of the girl.
 
English translation is my own and I wrote up the romaji myself.

i'm a  huge ゴシップ(Gossip)  fan since their debut,and somehow i can feel that something about them kinda got lost with the time
i mean...that "rawness"of their early sound (first single psycho pass,hijime bocchi single ,first mini album and R-18 single) ...that was pure madness and filth
even sounding like Kagerou/gazetto rip off.wasn't a long time ago,but that beginning was gold.i liked the samples, still pretty good
but now everything sound very polished and kinda forgettable.However,i'm glad they still very active

Yeah, that's probably one of the main ideas behind the release. It gathers lots of songs which were, until now, only available at their lives or some indie stores in osaka. The album is already up for pre-order on cdjapan which means that it's going to be their first nationwide release. Seems like they want to expand their activities.

Guitars sounding monotonous.
 

Is it one of those kind of best album where the band wants to gather all of their "fragments" like the singles and minis released when they were kinda "unknown" and get a fresh restart to do greater things? I hope so...

New Pic! Kuroneko always beautiful!

I think you read it wrong, the person is saying that all 3 bands are inspirations to younger bands, not that the Gazette came before the other bands

the gazette is source of inspiration for many vk bands like dir en grey,kagerou and etc
sounds pretty promissing,but everything looks forced,like trying to sound amazing adding many different elements on one track

DIMLIM have a new twitter.
also they changed their bandlogo which looks brutal AF! 8D
really curious how their musical development will go on from now.
on a side note: they just finished up recording the 2 songs for their ONEMAN live distributed single in late january.

When a vk band debuts ,their disbandment date should be given already

Deviloof posted their merch for their upcoming oneman. There's a shirt that's Keisuke's back tattoo ... which is dope! I wish it wasn't white, though. I have their old logo tee, but I want their new one as well.

Do take a break. Please.
 
Also, that cover art just gave me eye cancer, lmao.
