We are in this month's Vijuttoke free magazine~ https://www.club-zy.com/contents/373223 I translated the interview for everyone enjoy~

Oh man, thanks so much. Im really happy you and others are getting the exact feeling I aimed to put into the music. Really humbled, will try to not disappoint from nowﾔｯﾌ〜(*ˊᗜˋ*) ﾉ

wow, Thank you! . . Im really happy that the intention was conveyed ‪ヽ(^0^)ノ

Thank you for sharing the PV ^_^! I hope you all can enjoy it. We are also in this month's issue of Vijuttoke so if you are in Japan you can pick that up in any VK shop or get one sent to you from them if you pay postage! Currently we are recording the next CD single as well as another digital single to fill in the time in-between. Thank you for any and all support! It really means alot to us. here is a digest from our first gig as well~ Stay sassy in the free world!

From October 10th THE MISSING DEAD cd single will be available at LIKE AN EDISON Tokyo and Osaka as well as for order online. Because of my metal activities with hide's ex.members and such too, also available in limited quantity at Shimamura Musical instrument store in Yokosuka. Fliers will be available all over Japan at various VK stores and ESP big boss stores. ３曲入りCD SINGLE 2200円 -税込- 1.DEATH PROPOSAL 2.堕胎罪 3.THE MISSING DEAD On the same day tickets will go on sale for our first live at Star Wave's Halloween event. If any forum goers are coming to the event let me know 🍀 I think LIKE AN EDISON does not ship overseas? but if you can support us via buyer services we really appreciate it!

New Member - Kiyoshi on Bass (LUXURY, ex.The Honey Beez) In keeping with our theme of cherishing the older aspects of VK while moving forward we are super happy to have the veteran Kiyoshi join us on bass. Advanced news for MH: our first gig will be with STARWAVE at 2020年10月29日(木) 池袋BlackHole [Dark Ambition Exposed Vol.120～ハロウィンスペシャル～] 出演：Scarlet Valse, 未完成アリス, LIVERCHT, En'Cell~Dis'Dein More cool stuff coming!

Thank you for throwing out some of those technical terms! Again not going to do it myself, Ive worked with analog formats enough to know I def need to trust someone with experience. Any more technical terms that you awesome folks can tell me to ask if they can provide is a big help ❤️

Oh biological panda, show me the way!

Yo, Going to try and find the best place to rip my Due le Quartz collection live,pv,etc. Do any of you o.g. rippers have any tips on what to search/ask for tech-wise when choosing a place to make sure it is the best possible rip? Am gonna try to scan my complete collection of the fanclub booklets too and will share all fashowskies.

Pretty much any physical format I love so, but the 8cms offered their own unique format for the presentation of the art so really love lots of the releases. Their where even vending machines with 8cms in them, imagine going to one and getting a Dir en Grey single ; P need that time machine already doc!

No no no. Your humor is my fav thing on the boards haha. Never change star child

hey all you cool cats and kittens! We have luckily not disbanded in 2 months as the coolio Karma's Hat predicted but who knows haha. finally we were able to arrange photos during this crazy corona festival. Have to wait a little bit longer to announce our bassist though >.<! New single Dataizai coming soon as well~ Am talking to STARWAVE about when we can do an event as well but still sketchy here. can see more images on our twitter plus me being a dork on TOKYO BORDERLESS TV at: https://twitter.com/Encelldisdein Stay safe out there~!

Luckily 7up is sometimes in soda machines here, the Cool Spot video game engrained me with that western marketing imprint too.

Am pretty sure Pata was paid well and Heath's contract was renegotiated(that is like almost 10 years ago now too?) So thats just old stuff anyways. As for no money being in CDs anymore, its X Japan in Japan. That western ideal doesnt completely fit here, they would still sell butt loads and make profit in country. Do not like to hate on Yoshiki too much, but comparing him to Masaya is pretttty crazy haha?? One abuses human beings, even children it seems, yoshiki may be living in Yoshiki-land but he is charitable and not abusing people physically etc. \=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪ ‧̣̥̇)/ We will always have the actual era of X to look back on anyways so meh

I think to understand source of vk's vibrato stuff and singing style check Morrie from Dead End and Kiyoharu from Kuroyume.

For Luna Sea look up Image live should see their recent performance of it. Really amazing. For X Japan tears is amazing. If you are not impressed by Toshi I do not know what will impress you. He is like the steve perry of Japan haha. Hide is not really amazing technique wise, just he studied was all. Ishii of kagrra has really great falsetto. Was a soprano from jr.high. ❤️

This lady does a really good job of explaining what Kyo is doing technically. Maybe it can be perceived as "he does not have control." At face value but he is really pushing the boundaries on himself all the time so. Metal techniques are harder to grasp at face and can seem easier than they actually are. Just the breathing aspect of it can be so hard.

Kyo's technical abilities are really amazing, if you are actually a pro musician it is easy to recognize that he does some things that not really anyone else can in the scene. You have mostly people who do not really try to learn technique and those few who actually make the effort, same with most positions. Kagrra's Ishi was someone I know who actively studied theory, Jui from vidoll also. Ryuichi from Luna Sea really studied hard, hide once made a comment about how he was amazed how much he progressed. Hide also made a big effort with the same Vocal trainer Toshi used. Toshi still trains with international and japan based vocal teachers.

Oh man thank you for noticing the mix haha ❤️

Am but a single lil foreign man in a sea of fakeness but I try to put my love for all things oldschool VK into these songs ❤️ hope that can be felt in these songs. Have had a lot of people put that save VK thing on me, maybe should make some kind of Jihad song? Kill zee infidels. Spit on the false Queen my bruddahs

Sweet baby jesus the new single is out now. Next month I will be a guest on Tokyo Borderless TV on 7/15 & 25 Will reveal artist photos for band and new member as well. I hope you can enjoy it ﾔｯﾌ〜(*ˊᗜˋ*) ﾉ

Yah after buying is a good way to do it! Breaking even on tunecore is not hard from itunes or amazon music sales but if the trend of people using only streaming continues without change in policy god diggaly dang yah, for a full album price youll need a buttload of streams (　 人　 ) ﾟдﾟ) #musiciansneedpizza

yah if it is actual big big money have heard about problems with them. >.<;;; Spotify is the biggest streamer but the cheapest when it comes to paying the artist T_T;;; That said still super happy when people listen to even my stuff on spotify, play a song 1000 times so I can eat some pizza.
