Man if there is one member that never stopped evolving in this band is Kai, he is probably my favorite drummer currently active in scene right now

this channel has a couple of the performances up. Enjoy 

I believe this is was 100% necessary name change to be understood better as a band.
First the original name was just Omega, some might think this is better just because its simple, rolls of the tongue easily and is a fairly common word used for cool names. BUT you didn't know anything else about them because it was just too short, making you have to LISTEN to their sound to know what they are about.
 
Now lets see the new name additions "heretic of revolution" by only this addition you already know they are not generic and will change shit up, my only question here is: isn't a revolution already heretic most times? if this is redundant or not it is a point of future discussions.
 
The last addition was the most important because now you know they from the universe in general, not like the other "planet-earth-only" bands. Knowing this, one have to ask: where does each band member come from?
 
One member might come from jupiter while another member might try to make people aware of the 2006 demotion of Pluto from planet to dwarf planet, just because "its was not big enough" according to their standards, the question where is the line drawn, one day people might start not considering other people actual people just because they are not big enough??? now you see why this should be discussed.
 
Now you guys are aware of how deep this name change is, no nedd to thank me for pointing it I thank you for reading until this point.

Well, it is what the title says. コロナウイルス is forcing people to stay home in Japan and the japs have a nice philosophy of spreading hope in times of despair, so they went there and performed anyway and are being nice and posting the gigs that got cancelled online for all to see, including us, poor gaijin. No live audience, no staff, etc.
 
These are the ones I've seen so far:
 
 
 
 
Let's make this collaborative so do share other links here if you know of any. I'll keep updating this list.
 
Previously unreleased lives uploaded for viewing due to the Corona situation are also to be freely shared in this thread - MH Staff
 
And bear in mind most of these gigs will be available for a limited time only, so hurry up and watch or download the ones you're interested in watching ASAP.

You guys must be wondering "why not answer these in japanese and translate it?" but this is a naive question. You are assuming they have a TEAM behind all this shit when in fact the probability of being only Retsu with google translate as his weapon is really high.
 
Although CHEDOARA Dimlim died for this now I see it was only a matter of time. This will only be worth it if Sho also makes one of these vids and cause even more damage to my already destroyed sides

Let's is a maniac. Just look at this video. Hiroshi is taking the piss, he can barely take the questions seriously himself (see 55 secs, just after they cut off a child's scream lol) . This video series  was without a doubt Let's's idea. 
 
Hiroshi was asked why they chose Shibuya Womb as a venue and Hiroshi literally said because it was the only venue that wasn't fully booked LMAO (also they wanted a venue with a screen). He was also asked why there was a 3 month gap between the release of MISC and their first gig and his answer was because all venues were booked... I can't. 
 
1:54 - What the fuck? I can't tell if this is supposed to be funny or what. Who's filming this and why are they having a stroke? This band's tone is so skewed between their essence and suits and wanting to get away from the corruption of visual kei and these shitty, amateur attempts at marketing. 
 
1:54 - 2mins "why do you think 'What's Up?' was the hardest song to record?" 
 
"Ride cymbal is xxxxxx CHIN CHIN" 
 
WHAT
 
Last question "what does love mean to you?" 
 
"the putty in-between... "  He doesn't believe a word of what he's saying, let's be honest. 
 
Get Retsu away from these men before they're humiliated even further. 
 
 
 

watch it while it lasts 

WTF I thought everyone already had a hazmat suit customized for VK concerts in japan?!
The main question is how would Reita apply the nose bandage in a hazmat suit? Would Uruha be able to get a lewd thigh show one as well?
We are losing a golden opportunity to explore never before seem looks here not only by the band but by the crowd too, can you guys imagine what kind of goods would come out of this?

Ya know, as a kid, my parents kept us away from the church and religion in general. It wasn't forbidden or anything...it was just something they practice and didn't push onto my siblings and I. My parents were kinda bohemian in the sense that they wanted us to make up our own minds. So, I honestly never thought much of it growing up, but I didn't realize how much of a blessing that was until these past few years. I'm really thankful to have not been indoctrinated into all of that...
 
But it's interesting because as a kid, I grew up hearing and listening to Outkast and Goodie Mob...and although I listened to other hip hop, there was always something special about these 2 groups to me. Not just because I'm from the same city as them and can relate/connect to them on a lot of levels...but their music always managed to "ground" me, even into my adult years as my taste expanded exponentially. Their music just always had a certain gravity to it....and outside of Andre3000 and Cee-Lo, the rest of Outkast and Goodie Mob weren't incredibly lyrical...but they were raw, and their words still had depth and weight to them.
 
...so I recently became aware that one of my favorite members of Goodie Mob subscribes to the same spiritual path that has been revealed to me, and things make a lot more sense now. There are definitely no coincidences... but tot only do I understand more of what his lyrics meant from back in the day, but I also understand why I was so drawn to their music now. The spirit of truth...The spirit of wisdom...these have always been beckoning.
 
Goodie Mob's first album being called "soul food", also makes a lot more sense now too. These guys' music was basically my "church" growing up.

I still DEEPLY regret I didn't buy Kamijo black facemask with a vampire mouth saying "Bonjour" that he did in collaboration with Melcafe last year. I would have been the coolest one wearing it while raiding my local supermarket.
 

Their 18th anniversary performance is canceled.
 
 

it's now illegal to be a gazette stan, when will kpop 👏

I haven't used a forum like this so long and nostalgia is just rushing through me.
 
Hi! My name's Jake, if we're doing that kind of introduction. I build car washes and, at night, dry my tears with my bachelor's degree in writing while bingewatching horror franchises; in case you're curious, Nightmare on Elm Street is by far the best franchise to watch front-to-back. Pleased to meet y'all.
 
I've been lurking here for a little while because I'm a big fan of Sukekiyo and there's very little discussion of them on the English-speaking web. I'm also a big fan of Dir En Grey (SO GOOD when I saw them in December,) Envy (@my username - seen them twice & their new album is shockingly good,) plus a bunch of different stuff primarily in the indie, emo, and metal orbit. My VK/J-Rock cred is pretty low, but I used to be obsessed with Deluhi years ago because I was majorly into Galneryus so... There's that at least.
 
Another reason I joined was because I've been learning Bass recently and - while getting into bands like MUCC, Kannivalism, Suspended 4th, Tricot, and 9GOATS BLACK OUT - I've realized how much more interesting Bass in J-Rock is than it typically is in the West. Listening to stuff like this is really inspiring while struggling to learn an instrument, so I'm trying to see what other bands are out there. This seems like a good place to browse for that purpose, so... Hi!

Yeah I am pretty sure that kyo lost his virginity just before the time they released anima, not that they have no sexual themes before that but they certainly doubled down around that time
