I came for the Schutzstaffel's cap and stayed for the music

I am a very simple man stuck in time. Dir en grey Malice Mizer Moi Dix Mois Phantasmagoria Psycho Lé Cemu D'espairsRay Art Cube Aliene Ma'riage THE PIASS D

Got disordered feelings from this song, just what I expect from them. ❤️ The MV and it's disturbing vibes is really cool as well, but for some reason got blocked by youtube, lmao.

Será que a mágica da enquete online funciona com Dir en grey também? https://forms.gle/bGN3k3bbj3LdjnqB6

Very close to. The promoter also said this is not affecting brazilian schedule. And I very hope so, because I already bought plane tickets, goods and stuff.

Well, Kisaki probably has stories to tell, the man is out there for a while, knows a lot of people and did stupid and awesome things. Looks like a nice drinking buddie. But in that matter Kenzi would beat him easily. I also would love to hear Kyo thoughts about anything that he wanted to talk about. Walking around the city and talking about everything, like that Linklater's romance trilogy no homo tho. Art Cube's Z/Seth always looked a very acessible and chill guy, would love to picnic with him in the woods too if Mana let me do it.

Just updating: they got 100% plus extra money for a MV for the new single. Really glad for them.

I like them a lot, but this market strategy idea of stretching the hype releasing a single with a high quality pv every four months is really gay. It's like an AAA DLC-based band.

I too missed some ヴィジュアル系 gimmicks while listening to it, but better safe than sorry I guess. Still waiting the album not being too safe.

Oh yeah, sure. But all things considered, it's one more fun fact to the list. "We've changed NOW ITS YOUR TURN... but since we can't print the new album, you can pay that expansive price for these old ones btw."

So, in the brazillian pre-sale we can buy CHE DO ARA and Rijin. MISC is not even listed.

I would recommend this album btw.

Not going to talk about having different priorities in life or less economincal power, but let's not forget that SA is a hellhole and minimun wage, dollar rate, shipping costs, international taxing and so on are different from one country to another.

>the band looks pretty, let's see >what a cool funky music >everyone looks happy and friendly >oh no >OH NO Every fuckin time.

Would love to heart about it too. My friend is speaking with his friend to ask his other friend to get the hoodie for us. So would be really cool if I could really use it without fearing washing the thing.

Can't wait to download see it.

Not gonna lie, that hoodie made jelly as fuck.

What's up? They 've changed for sure. I like their new groove out of the darkness, but a lot to lament too. Not goint to try to fool anyone, It's a +&- album. Hope their new direction can take me out in the midnight when the mist clears away. Maybe it's better for the future or they can try new things again before it's too late. Tick tak, funny world.

Thinking about getting a Takato Yamamoto tattoo, but there are just too many god like works of him.

Oh Lord, please enlighten me, how do I do the visual kei?

damn you Retsu

These questions reminded me of this video: Some things we can take from it: 1) It’s said that Akihabara is a “very tolerant city for men in drag”. The necessity of having to say it give me the perception of being something unusual in other places, potentially weird then. 2) Mostly of their clients are woman (aha!). a) It’s more comfortable to talk with a guy in drag than with another woman. b) A guy in drag is more special than a ordinary guy and, because of it, more attractive. 3) Being in drag is fashion. It’s about clothing and looking good, not about turning into a “real woman”. Which we can relate. Hizaki it the prettiest mother fucker, but when he open his mouth he sounds like a really big dinosaur with tiny arms (just using some hyperbole, love this guy to the heart). That’s a really common thing with visual kei artists. They don’t try to fool you or modify their voice to match their drag character. 4) They keep man clothing for social stuff, like going to hospital. This one says a lot of how the japanese society functions in that matter. For me it sounds like “You can dress yourself as you want: drag, tokusatsu, baseball mascot, but when you are doing you social role, you have to be the ‘real you’ (which is the one in your ID)”. 5) Three of themselves are bi, but they don’t use sexual terms to describe it, like “I am A” or “I am B” but they say “I am attracted by X and Y”. Now, I don’t really know if this is a language thing or if japanese in general are less attached to specific terms to describe their sexuallity. One of them just do drag to get attention from woman (loved that guy). I guess that relates with point 2. With all that said, I have more questions than answers kek, but I think that these are some important lines of thinking to understand the myth of the japanese man with bra and his place in society. I also recommend a movie called “Close-Knit”. Talks a lot about point 4. The director itself is a transgender, so there is a lot of self insert in it. Really interesting to see:

Really loved the first third of the song. For me, Retsu can go as progressive as he wants. It even made me to listen to some Polyphia again. Sho is is nailing it as always. Felt that the song had space for him to go a bit harder. Looks like that it will be a common feeling while listening the DIMLIM 2.0, which I really like since Rijin is golden. A little stretched and the seconds of autotune is always hard to digest, but without any doubt a solid song.

Looking foward it. Phantasmagoria hits still lives in my heart and so does him.
