I love this band and I really hope the album is a killer - but I echo the sentiments that continuing on with this half-lineup is a big cause for concern. How old is Retsu? Mid-20s, maybe? Just browsing his social media definitely makes me feel like he's going through that thing that all creative types tend to go through where you just...outwardly reject whatever it is you think people want you to do. From the dropping of visuals to not filling out the lineup to what seems to be a lot of over-promising for things that just don't seem possible (they announced another full length literally like...MONTHS before RELEASE?? REALLY??), this is the stuff that ends bands. And I really hope that's not the case here, I really want them to pull it through, but I don't think they can do that as a three piece.

After the pitiful, cringe-worthy performance I saw last Friday I wouldn’t hold my breath for the album.
 
Here’s some tea: some gya commented on twitter how disastrous the whole thing was and Retsu blocked her from his account and the official account. Then proceeded to whine on Instagram. The other guys looked so done. I’m willing to bet they either want out or a different path but can’t say no to Retsu. 
 
Btw, it was SO bad I couldn’t even stay for the whole performance. The only other band that made me nope the fuck out in the middle of a song was Yumeleep.
A bunch of westerners with me also walked out of it and thought it was painful to look at.
I see more agaru in this band’s questionable future. They won’t make it past the album, that is, if it’s ever released.

Getting D.I.D. flashbacks.

As someone who Can evaluate music independently of anyone’s prior music career, the song is dope. 
 
as a massive d’espairsray fan in extremely disappointed. But this is NOT a d’ray joint so I have to learn to let that go. 

i don't hate it but i don't love it either. I'm still just glad to hear his voice again plus he is screaming/growling mildly so i'm still hopeful for a DespairsRay reunion again.
 
This "band" is in dire need of a drummer and bassist and they may have some potential. 

i hope they enjoyed their weekend break before they were sent back into the recording studio sweatshop

Is it only me or some of the newest VK bands posted recently sound more early to mid 2000's?

a little less whining please, i’m getting tired. two English posts in a row just to complain? why not spend the energy appreciating the foreign fans who came to see you and/or bought stuff.

It's becoming harder and harder to love this band for every new page of this thread. Leaving VK, whining, programming instruments instead of finding replacement members...
 
I proclaimed them saviours of VK some time ago, now I'm wondering if they will last the year.
 
How things can change.
 

their live-limited single "生き継ぎ" (Ikitsugi) will be released at their lives since 2019/10/26

Cause that's exactly what's happening, I'm afraid...

I'm so glad I have no ear for those details.

Excuse me....
 
Mine are 8.99.

yep. Alice9 and Kaya had done successful crowdfunding for their releases in the past, there's an ongoing campaign to bring Sui to Europe for a concert (I'm not following her so idk if they reached the milestone.)
 
if paid fanclubs fall under your idea of subscriptions, those are out there for p much every prominent vk act.

I'll never understand what's the point of keeping everything as a mystery, I just find it kinda dumb

Chill bro. haha.

Now that's just depressing, imho Rijin is way better than IDEAL. I bought it both digitally and physically.
 
And I can't stand the thought of Issei being comfortable in NAZARE, wearing a smug grin, while DIMLIM are struggling.

They still look better without makeup than half the scene so who cares 

jesus fucking khryst

Last live on nov 12th it seems like.
 
A shame the band had potential but never went anywhere, at the very least I hope Muku continues as a vocalist cause hes got some real talent there
