  1. I kind of wished certain bands would stop overcharging for mini albums at 3000+ yen because I've come to terms with it probably being my preferred length/format when it comes to vk releases. Singles are just too short in general and when a band is really good 2-3 songs just doesnt cut it and idk I just dont think theres alot of bands out there capable of keeping my interest for 45+mins/10+ tracks.

  2. i know as time goes and they become more popular, people are gonna be even more divided on Kizu than they already are but imo with each release im more and more convinced that this band has the IT factor.

  3. i know its hard to compare singles to albums and we got some really solid singles coming up but i dont think anyone can compete with virge this year

      Virge's album hasn't even come out yet...

      im just going off vanish and le ciel so far

      hopefully.  but be careful hyping an album based on the singles.  you get burned a lot doing that. 😅

  4. i know people are hella divided on the insulated world but im still quite excited to see what dir en grey's single sounds like later this year

      adjusted you say 👀

       

      wouldnt happen to have a link  or something on you. or maybe the audio presets/changes they used? 

       

       

      but ya agreed, a band of their caliber, popularity, and success should have pretty good production/mixing/mastering. god knows what went wrong

      @chipathy "I was just going through my stuff and for this "remix" or whatever I did, all I did was decrease the track volume by 2db then select all frequencies above 4kHz and increase by 2db to bring out the high-end."

  5. i know this is a pretty common thing im pretty sure everyone here faces but jesus it really sucks having vk music as a main interest/hobby and having no one irl to discuss it or share music with. bless the internet 

    1. Gesu

      Gesu

      I used to have an IRL friend who liked J-rock, but I fell out with her because she was being too needy. That sucked, because I was going to go to a Kamijo concert with her in September last year but I ended our friendship in July, so I didn't end up going because it was at night over a hundred miles away and I didn't fancy going by myself. A cynical part of me wishes I had just grinned and bore it until after the concert... ah, well. I don't have to put up with that crap here on MH.

      when i was in high school i had a small group of friends that were into it too. we would share what we bought since youtube wasn't around, etc. we both had a falling out with one of them and i was close friends with another up until a couple of years ago. we would still go to shows together when bands came abroad, but after a while i started to realize i was giving way more to the friendship then they were and we kind of drifted apart, too. i feel ya. 

  6. i miss akane/d.i.d. so much 

  7. I miss bands like unsraw, d.i.d., 12012, signal, and sadie everyday

  8. i need catch up on my backlog and the two bands i really wanna peep next are emmurée and merry, any specific standout releases (albums, singles etc) or should i just do a deep dive on both of their discographies 

    1. Alkaloid

      Alkaloid

      emmuree: "love letter" & "Hokage"

       

      MERRY: "Fukurou"

    2. yomii

      yomii

      emmurée: 灰色(haiiro)

      merry: under-world

  9. I need new apex players to squad up all my friends have already moved onto new games I have no interest in 😭

  10. I sure do love payday aka congrats you get to pay your bills day 

    1. yomii

      yomii

      i love how this and your new profile pic match together

  11. I went to google the cover art to the first NICOLAS single so I can set it on my phones library but then i remembered what the cover art actually looks like so I think it's best to leave it blank lol

  12. i wonder how many more scapegoat mv's we'll have to go through until haru starts killing his gf's again 

  13. i wonder whats the deciding factor for most people when choosing between several types for a release, is it the cover artwork, the bonus dvd with a music video/other behind the scenes footage, or exclusive tracks 

    1. Jigsaw9

      Jigsaw9

      Whichever version has more tracks, that's the one I tend to choose. I'd rather listen to the most a band has to offer than watch some potentially lame video I could see on YT anyway.

    2. Komorebi

      Komorebi

      it depends on the content, really.

      If thw DVD has a making of I go for that, or the extra track on the regular edition...

      But I'm a collector, when I like a band enough to get their material I eventually get all versions if they have different content. 

    3. Paraph

      Paraph

      usually the one with more tracks, or the one with more content in general. when i was younger i would choose the best cover most of the time, but i usually regretted that so i learned the hard and expensive way lol. if i really like something i will consider owning all versions down the road.

  14. I'd be surprised if it actually led to anything but it's still fun to speculate, hiro from nocturnal bloodlust has been hanging out with Z from rshitei who just recently went on hiatus 🤔

    1. sleepy coffee

      sleepy coffee

      Ya I probably have the semi unpopular opinion where I actually really like rshitei but I think in a new environment they all have more to show off, if that doesnt happen to be the case then well hopefully they comeback soon lol

  15. I'm a dude who's never had long hair til now and I'm completely lost at how I should take care of it, anyone got any pointers or tips

    1. yomii

      yomii

      conditioners and hair masks will be of a great help〜 but dont use them on the roots - you want your hair to be moisturized but not greasy. also you dont want to brush your hair while it's still wet. blowdry with the grain(hope i used proper words for that, sorry if not). if you're going to use flat iron dont ever use it on wet hair too and it's better to use a spray.

    2. platy

      platy

      Get your hair trimmed regularly. Every 3 months at least. Otherwise it'll get split ends and you'll have to chop up a longer portion of it than you'd want to

    3. sleepy coffee

      So since I'm pretty clueless I just randomly bought something called matrix biolage from the store (I have 0 clue what's good I just got whatever was the most expensive) and also picked up some micellar shampoo from a brand that has already escaped my memory. Anyways since my hair feels pretty thin and meh I've been using all the stuff daily and it all seems to be working pretty well already lol

  16. I'm loving La'veil MizeriA and Crucifixion, god bless this place otherwise theres no way I would've came across either band

    1. Paraph

      recently discovered La'veil MizeriA too! my heart. it was an instant stan.

    2. sleepy coffee

      The fact were getting full lengths from them, virge, and verxina. We dont deserve to be so fortunate

      I endorse this status

  17. I'm not entirely sure how well their stuff sells in japan but Kizu's YouTube numbers are pretty crazy high at least by vk standards, I wonder if theres any chance in the years to come for overseas touring...

    1. madygrain

      madygrain

      They're doing well at lives at least. They grew pretty fast.

    2. WhirlingBlack

      WhirlingBlack

      As far as I know their stuff sells really well, when my friend was going to buy Steroid she had to go to three different stores because it was sold out everywhere on release. Based on the fact that their first single sells for 8000+ yen at PureSound also tells me that there's a demand bigger than the supply.

    3. sleepy coffee

      Well even if oshimai has fake views kizuato is passing it up probably in the near future and 0 has also had a high amount of views for 2 and half months

  18. I'm so fucking  shit with finances, just realize I've been paying for Amazon prime and a gym membership for the past 4 or so months without using either service or remembering HSJSJSODHDODLDL

    1. YuyoDrift

      YuyoDrift

      If you don't use Prime for more than free shipping then you're better off without it.

       

      Also, who wants to pay for gym membership? Lol most people have memberships that allow a guest to come with and they don't even know it.

    2. God

      God

      me with netflix, tho.  oof.

  19. I'm still surprised Akane hasnt made a comeback yet, does anyone know if theres been any updates on his end or if hes ever commented on making music again, I know hes quite active on Twitter so maybe hes talked about it

    1. YuyoDrift

      YuyoDrift

      Thats funny. I was just thinking about him the other day.

      It would be a shame in vocal talent to just call it quits 😕

  20. I've already listened to the Virge album like 4 times from start to finish, I need help

  21. I've become readdicted to league of legends so I think this is the end of any free time I used to have 

  22. I've heard of em for awhile now but I just barely came across any of FerrisWheeL's music yesterday and now I'm irked everything is super rare and live limited lol

    1. suji

      suji

      that suuucks. i love them too, they're one of those homage-kei groups that are somehow still around ❤️ but nobody pays attention to them

       

      ever since they lost those 3 members, they haven't done shit :( it's a shame

    2. sleepy coffee

      sleepy coffee

      Do they even have a website or social media?

       

      Also I assume only 2 of their singles so far have made their way onto the internet, trying to find as much as I can but so far it's only been 3 songs lol

  23. I've lost count how many times I make lunch before work just to leave it on the counter 

  24. Idc what people say or think, I'm still fucking with this heisei single hard a month later 

  25. Idk if it's because they wanna stay super obscure and indie but I feel like crucifixion would be a good fit for starwave
