Personally I'm really enjoying their new psychobilly direction. They've come a long way since their oi! roots, although their mid-era harsh noise material remains my favorite stuff by the band.

throwback to that one time when kyo interviewed alejandro jodorowsky

Contacted _Yomigaeri on twitter for her shopping services for Rands goods, she wasn't charging a fee, so that part was great, so I asked for a towel and the latest album.
 
Communication was very sparce and I constanly had to bug her to get any news. She only ends up getting me the towel as the day she chose to get the CD, the store had an instore. Lucky enough the band finally released it for download. So that was fine. Took about two weeks after she gets home to finally ship the towel. I've asked her what the shipping price was, still waiting for the answer as I should be getting a some money back.
 
Maybe it's just me but if someone offers a shopping service, they should be more active in dealing with their customers, keeping them updated, do things when you say you'll do them as you areresponsible with someone elses money.
 
I wouldn't use her again.

I moved back to Tokyo on December 31, 2018 and started offering shopping service for everyone, rather than just my friends, for small fees.
I've been to 37 lives in Tokyo in 2019, so I know how things work.
 
‼️I'm focused on getting merch from lives, cd/dvd releases (from stores) and tickets.
I won't accept small orders from online stores anymore. I've done it a few times and the tiny service fee I'd have to ask for it wouldn't cover the time/materials I'd have to put into it‼️
 
General service fee is 20% of the item.
+ shipping fee and packaging (if a box is needed).

if I read this correctly Inori is taking time off due to family circumstances

Oh my gooooood, that's so good.

I guess Retsu's pride will take a huge hit and he will be pissed off and release "What's up [2]" where he will slam outseas fans.
 
No bangyas and no gaijins.

Guess who's going to Mexico, well not Dimlim
Less than 30 Tickets sold, I'm part of the problem, a broken university student without money, I'd love to go but no money
 

Yup, really. It has very little of any vk signatures in it, and that's cool for a change. It's dumb and heavy and that's ok. 

Oh yeah, I fully agree. Have liked where these guys have been headed.

I don't know what's worse - Black Pig or this one.

This is simply metalcore chugs for the sake of metalcore chugs.

Zero creative musicianship.

I listen to this song like 5 times now and i cant remember shit from it. This is one of the most boring and uninspiring things they've done

Absolutely forgettable

Usually i don't care for CDs like that but in this case with NAZARE and DEXCORE this has to be the most AMAZING collaboration EVER!!

I would recommend this album  btw.

How can you still call them worn out when you complain about his drumming since, idk 5+ years now? It seems to be his style by now, get over it or stop listen to them.
I am not a drummer but damn, this same sentence complaining about him every time in every thread for so many years now gets kind off annoying to read. 

Don’t know what they expected. If they’re pushing for an international audience, renouncing VK isn’t it.
 
There are basically four camps:
1) Those that will only listen to VK, because the aesthetics are slightly more important than the music.
2) Those that mainly listen to VK because of an interest in the scene, but who wouldn’t stop listening if a band dropped their image, if the music was still good. Won’t seek out non-VK bands regularly .
3) Those that listen to all types of J-music as long as it’s good. Doesn’t care one way or another if it’s VK.
4) Actively avoids VK, either because “it’s gay”, or “I hate the fandom”. Won’t listen to a band that used to be VK either, because of fandom crossover.
 
So basically, there’s very little reason for a band to drop the “VK” label, especially in the foreign market.

At this point idgaf about Dimlim as a band or Retsu, I’m in it for the telenovela realness. 

Also noteworthy is that Ryuya and Taishi still follow Hiroshi on twitter. 
 
No one follows Retsu except Hiroshi

Ooohhh, so edgy, I can't control my tits anymore

What is this now?
 
Did someone else quit?
 
 

This feels like a forced transition into pop rock or whatever it is they're trying to go for, I was hoping for some mathy songs like whats up but I just ended up being disappointed with how boring the album is to me. Lots of creativity has been lost, they just sound like another j-indie band to me with this album.
