All 3 discs for Vestige Of Scratches have been uploaded to EU spotify recently, I think they're just trying to get more of their discography onto a streaming platform. Weird how they added the -Kai- remix album though.

The CD is pretty good! I'll definitely keep an eye out for them

Wow its like good cop bad cop

If Issei pulled a cease and desist on his compositions being played live then he’s a bigger dick than I thought. It’s not likely though. They probably just don’t want to play that shit anymore. 

I do agree with you, however, how would a cease and desist work in this scenario? Wouldn't someone automatically relinquish the rights to the music if they leave the band and gets replaced?

done 👍

I'd suck the dude on the right off, no homo

The drumming on the song isn't even that bad. It's just that one fast section which isn't horrible but I've been hearing that same drum pattern since Dum Spiro Spero. How the hell did he even get through the extreme tracks on DSS without becoming a robot that can only play a few simplified drum patterns?

You would think he would have learned how to maneuver in sections like that by now but I guess not.

It all sounds the same to me its just as shallow as American pop music, I don't see a difference so I will never understand why K-Pop is as popular as it is. It has to have one of the worst fandom's I've ever seen though, I've never seen a music genre with a community as bad as K-Pop's. The only thing I can compare it to are video games like Undertale and FNAF (albeit Undertale was a decent game).

K-Pop song: 음경

How long before Sho wrecks his voice doing those fucking inhales?

Hes probably months away from ruining his voice if he keeps doing it consistently, he sounds pretty rough from what I've heard. This man needs a vocal coach, I don't want him to lose those beautiful sounds of pigs dying.

Sounds like if insulated world had another long song idk. It’s dir en grey and that’s about it

Honestly it just sounds like a bunch of the Insulated World tracks mixed together, its not too appealing but if the track is gonna be 10 minutes I cant really judge from 2 minutes of listening. I just hope they don't keep trying to get the Vinushka or Macabre feel again, Zetsuentai was the worse track on the album lol

Cant wait for VAGNA

Anyone else who noticed that Kidoairaku leaked with poor audio quality?

Yep, cant believe its 2019 and people are still ripping music under 320kbps

I really thought Vanitas -White- and Aizounitsuki -Black- were gonna be fully fleshed out acoustic remakes, that was kind of a bummer.

I think I would have enjoyed the album more if I didn't hear the entire first fucking half of the album months before release, the weird ass interludes don't help either. The entire album doesn't seem fresh and feels a bit recycled like they were trying to look desperately for material, in that case, I wish they would remake Nightmare, they remade Ruin and Aishite Kudasai so why not Nightmare? I also wish to GOD that they used a real drum kit when recording the album, it sounds like ass. The instrumentals in general are so bland and uninspired that its the main downfall of the album. One redeeming quality about that album is that I can finally hear the bass now lmfao

The album is definitely a bummer but not dreadful, its for sure their worst release so far though.

Interesting to say the least, I think the vocals could be somewhat improved though

I feel like the vocalist is trying too hard, its all over the place (which sometimes can be a good thing) but in this case its just sloppy in my opinion. Definitely not gonna put them aside though, they have potential.

Don't know why, but reading this made me remember "Inconvenient Ideal" is another song about abortion. Forgot to mention that one earlier. How is Different Sense about abortion?

I've always been told the song is about abortion and after looking at the lyrics I could see why people say that, especially after watching the music video. Looking back on it now the only lines that stuck out to me in terms of talking about abortion are "The arguing and the intimacy of the assembled" "Starving for euthanasia" and "What is so pure about pushing them around?". Other than that, after seeing @nekkichi's post I have realized that I am most likely wrong.

anybody know how many dir en grey songs are about abortion? 

 

for some reason whenever im going to through the comment sections of dir en grey songs on YouTube i always come across at least one comment which reads how the above song is about abortion. 

 

From what i know only one of their song is about abortion which was 'mazohyst of decadence'.

I believe "Different Sense" is another one about abortion

Hello! Long time no see!

 

((some of you might recognize my previous handle, "greeeeen"))

 

So recently I've been listening to some of the bands I used to listen to circa 2009-2014. Just this morning I came across Crossfaith (I specifically only dig "Omen") and Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas, and upon listening to their songs it just occurred to me I really liked a certain electronicore band, though I can't seem to recall the name. They have a rather long, nonsensical English name and released an EP in 2010-2011...

I just got into Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas recently as well and I never thought I would like an electronicore band so much. To give you an answer though, could the band be "We Butter the Bread with Butter"?
