Dunno if its unpopular, but its an opinion nevertheless
 
The tracks 'Ju te veux' and 'S-Conscious' on the Malice Mizer album merveilles are pointless filler that serve no other purpose 

Hardcore and brootal does not mean a band is good.

- While their songs don't contain the best compositions nor vocals, MEJIBRAY is fun to just casually listen to.
- The tone of Aki's (アルルカン/Arlequin's vocalist) voice is pleasant to listen to despite him lacking the singing technique most VK vocalists use.
- While not fans of them at all, I don't mind the gaijins attempting to make themselves and their careers geared towards VK. Ignoring the fact gaijins are... well, white and not Japanese, their voices typically have the same quality (ex: YOHIO).
- DADAROMA is an absolute joke and THIS IS "LIVE" confirmed that further with the obnoxious tracks both the A and B side consist of.
- I enjoy ペンタゴン/pentagon's music despite the bandmen not being visually appealing in the slightest.

I'm always trying to find new music to listen to and expanding my taste in music. I enjoy when artists have a sort of acquired taste and challenge my music preference. A good example of this is BUCK-TICK's music. They have a very unique and interesting sound that took me a while to get into, but now I consider myself a fan and enjoy most of their music.
 
I typically listen to a new song that I'm iffy on multiple times unless it's dreadful enough (imo) that I just cannot get used to it.

I think so as well. I'm always reminded of how good Atsuki is at drumming when watching them live.
I think the rest of the members have a lot of potential too. Their capabilities are most displayed in 真昼間は別の顔, グッド・バイ, and ドラマ in my opinion! I think Minpha's bass really shines in all of the named tracks and we get to hear more of Taku and Yutori's guitar playing in ドラマ!

Here's a preview of the song that could be heard on Nack5 radio show where Kaya was present on the 15th. It was recorded by Kaya Addicts Argentina staff

I agree on this one. They are a band to listen to, not to look at. Chizuru has a very pleasant voice and Atsuki is a really good drummer.

It's the ones at the anime con's you really have to watch out for.

Every Q+A panel ever:
"What's your favorite anime?" "Do you like (insert popular anime here)?" "If you were to cosplay as a character from an anime, what would it be?" "What's your favorite cosplay?" *
 
Every 30+ year old bandomen ever:
"Uhhh... I like dragonball"
 
 
*Though I wouldn't consider these people VK 'fans'
 

Welcome / I was a lurker too.
Cool you have a good few bands in common with me I'll check out the ones I haven't heard.
Also I say no embarrassment needed...everyone has different tastes, especially in music.

Welcome to the forums

I voted for "visual is in the name".
 
While the music definitely is what makes me like a band or not, a cool look adds an aura that I like. When you've been into vk for a while you can also sense if you will like a band who haven't released anything yet just by their looks, which I guess is both good and bad. 
 
That being said, outside of vk I do not care about how a band or an artist looks. 
 
The list itself self was also cool. I like that la'veil mizeria is there, we definitely need more matina-esque bands, both in terms of looks and music.
 
Also Karasuna Mei from Kuroyuri to kage in a bloody garbage bag needs to be mentioned as well. 

Welcome. If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact one of the mods we have a lot of bands in common, so I hope to see you around the forum. 

I've been lurking the forums for probably a year (give-or-take a couple of months) and decided to make an account once I felt that I understood better how the community functions and behaves.
 
Some of the bands I like (in no specific order) are ギャロ (THE GALLO), GreeΣ, ザアザア (xaa-xaa), 真天地開闢集団-ジグザグ (ZigZag), Develop One's Faculties, アルルカン (Arlequin), MALICE MIZER, and Plastic Tree. Some of these I'm admittedly embarrassed to have a fondness for (LOL).
 
Anyways, I hope to get along with you all! ♡

Jojo's voice definitely had a different sound in "KERBEROS". The change of sound in his voice turned me off from it at first, but it definitely grew on me as I kept listening. However, it seems like he can sing it decently live. I'm actually surprised considering Jojo's wonky vocals live lol.
 
On the other two tracks, his voice sounds as it typically does imo. I'm very fond of all of the songs on "KERBEROS", but I think my favorite track on the single would have to be  神鯨型潜水艦・黒鯨 (Kami Kujira Gatasensuikan Kokugei).
 
Tbh, I can only hope these were experimental songs rather than a style they'll keep. Regardless, I look forward to see what else they have in store for us.

Hi! Welcome to the forum!

I thought it was more in the line of "What do you mean [insert vk indie band] has already disbanded?? They only released 4 promo pictures and announced they were formed, who does that??"

Is it gonna be a soulless club track much like a single from a previous drag race contestant ? Would be interesting to hear kaya singing about yasss werk slay hunni
