    Pretsy got a reaction from Atreides in 黒夢/Kuroyume   
    As a small update: they are half-active atm so that might explain it (having this "DEATH MASK" moniker once again and performing older songs once in a while, god knows how long it will last)
     
    Regarding me and my reasons for necroing: the fact that I converted our fellow Stallion into this Kuroyume fandom made me realize the beauty behind Romance of Scarlet. Holy motherheck, I feel so bad for my earlier me and my questionable dislike towards that album, so many Shin gems...christ.

    I might as well lump Dynamite Tommy as the embodiment of anything WTF in VK as we speak:

    (includes the question/almost rhetoric blow on whether Dir was even associated with Extasy due to Yoshiki's hand in their major debut)
     
    Careful and curious observers may have noticed how much did his (possible) frauds/embezzlement cases have affected Dir's success and promotion antics (notice the slumps during certain periods)

    Of course! History tells us that lawsuits are the best way to combat progress and it has never backfired ever.

    Pretsy got a reaction from PsychoΔelica in 6 Disbandments that Really Sucked   
    Interesting to see NUMBER GIRL in the midst of disbandments that took place during TW/MH's existence (since I can imagine e.g. folks from JMR or Jrocknyc's angelfire era being still saddened about it but our current MH peeps? Hmm).
     
    Seeing @Zeus, Bonsai (who doesn't seem to appear here every now and then) or any Ringo enthusiast NOT mentioning Tokyo Jihen's disbandment sorta surprises me in rather odd ways - I mean, even in the wake of new Ringo solo era and its inevitable suckage, which Ringo fan wouldn't miss all the chemistry and fun TJ had during their short-lived era? Not every band was capable of conveying strong nuances and interesting chemistry together and individually, I tell you. I still tear up a little bit when I rewatch their Bon Voyage DVD during occasional TJ binges...helluva consistent live band!
     
    However, in terms of vk -  I was much more saddened about Deluhi's disbandment than what happened to Despa due to Hizumi's throat fuckups and other factors. Whereas Deluhi had a lot of promising stuff ahead (as some sort of "rookie act"), Despa had some signs of expected kaisanization even during early promos for REDEEMER and whatnot.

    Speaking of necessary vk additions - what about 9GOATS BLACK OUT? Okay okay, they became a bit mellower near the end but they were unique nonetheless. Not to mention that it's sad to see talents like utA and Ryo separated...

    Pretsy reacted to WhirlingBlack in DIR EN GREY - TOUR16-17 FROM DEPRESSION TO ________   
    Okay, some notes about the concert today:
     
    The songs are performed largely in their original versions except for OBSCURE, and they're done in the same tuning as on the album as far as I'm able to tell using six string guitars. 
     
    Best live tracks by far was audience KILLER LOOP, MARMALADE CHAINSAW, CHILD PREY (the Japanese audience really made this song to be honest) and Shokubeni. I weren't able to get into NEW AGE CULTURE or R TO THE CORE yet due to their awkward/difficult audience participation but the songs themselves were awesome.
    Sadly no AMBER or Fukai yet but that's coming tomorrow.
     
    One of the strongest impressions I got from the show was how much better Uroko has become live, Kyo really hit all the right notes and the Japanese audience really knows how to improve the mood compared to Europe. 
     
    During Phenomenon Kyo was doing strange dances and drooling all over his hand which he then proceeded to rub all over his body. I'm pretty sure the fangirls were pleased. He also looked leaner more akin to his Vulgarism body than how he's been looking lately.
     
    After Phenomenon was also the only inward scream of the show, for those who are about such things.
     
    The whole band seemed really into it, smiling, posing and running around trying to rouse the audience... very much felt like a throwback to the more casual experience of old.
     
    Utafumi is almost exactly 3 minutes long, and I can't really grasp it. My first impression is: Extremely messy. Lots of clean singing and some passages with quick indecipherable screaming.  I was not able to get into it, but then again this was my spontaneous reaction when I saw the live premiere of Chain Repulsion too, which is now a favorite, so I'm going to give it a few more shows before I properly review it.
     
    Worst part of the show was playing The Inferno. Like really, you have a 19 song setlist and you decide to throw one of the worst tracks of ARCHE on there? How about doing another VULGAR track or just...really any other song?

    But I digress, an amazing experience.
     
    Stay tuned, I'll try to bring some notes tomorrow as well.
