    Holy shit, 12 minutes! Now I'm having trouble deciding which one to get!


  2. OHP discography page updated with covers.

    ("DICTATOR" looks kinda lazy IMO, especially with the logo work, but "GENESIS" looks kinda cool!)

    "GENESIS" re-issue will be distributed by CROWN TOKUMA music distribution (they distributed the first press as well).

    "DICTATOR" re-issue will be distributed by K&A CO.,LTD. (so I'm not quite sure if there will be digital download or nationwide shop distribution for this one)


  3. ^do you even VK?

    I mean, this isn't even as bad as some bands do. Sometimes there's 5 versions with 5 different b-sides on each ~buy them all~

    Visual kei works more like a trading card game than a music scene

    ヴィジュアル系〜gotta catch 'em all〜

    But yeah, it could've been worse; there could've been more alternating b-sides on the previous singles, and as for "Ink," there could've even been a third alternation of track 11 for the deluxe edition. Still, it appears the only song released this year that won't make any version of the album is the re-recording of「鳴り響く、鐘」from the「静脈」single.

    But I am curious to see how different「96小節、長き不在。」and「218小節、かくも長き不在。」turn out to be.


  4. This is one DIAURA's several live distributed songs.

    I have the lyrics for this one typed out in Kanji, Hiragana, and I fetched an English translation, too.

    Maybe someday we'll get to hear this song...

    lyrics: yo-ka   music: DIAURA

    漢字歌詞:

    「舞い散る季節にまた逢いましょう」拡がる痛みの中で

    このまま記憶に溶けてしまえば 春を侍つ二つの影

    執拗に肌を蝕む もう忘れたはずなのに

    愛された記憶だけが残されたくらい場所

    もう幾つ季節は巡り 音を朱くす言葉達

    置き去りの心を探す術さえ見当たらない

    揺れて飛び散るこの心

    僕はまた・・・

    「舞い散る季節にまた逢いましょう」拡がる痛みの中で

    このまま記憶に溶けてしまえば 春を侍つ二つの影

    揺れる飛び散るこの心 終わる風に舞っていくの

    僕が笑ってくれたならそれだけで

    記憶は空へ 意識は土に還るとも

    交わる時を浮かべて眠るの

    桜の下に理めた二つの約束は

    褪せぬままに形を保つの

    「舞い散る季節にまた逢いましょう」拡がる痛みの中で

    このまま記憶に溶けてしまえば 春を侍つ二つの影

    さよなら・・・もう逢えないけど

    さよなら・・・ここで見守るわ

    約束の花舞う空で

    さよなら

    ひらがなかし:

    「まいちるきせつにまたあいましょう」ひろがるいたみのなかで

    このままきおくによけてしまえば はるをはべつふたつのかげ

    しつようにはだをむしばむ もうわすれたはずなのに

    あいされたきおくだけがのこされたくらいばしょ

    もういくつきせつはめぐり おとをしゅくすことばたち

    おきざりのこころをさがすじゅつさえみあたらない

    ゆれてとびちるこのこころ

    ぼくはまた・・・

    「まいちるきせつにまたあいましょう」ひろがるいたみのなかで

    このままきおくによけてしまえば はるをはべつふたつのかげ

    ゆれるとびちるこのこころ おわるかぜにまっていくの

    ぼくがわってくれたならそれだけで

    きおくは空へ いしきはどにかえるとも

    まじわるときをうかべてねむるの

    さくらのしたにりめたふたつのやくそくは

    あせぬままにかたちをたもつの

    「まいちるきせつにまたあいましょう」ひろがるいたみのなかで

    このままきおくによけてしまえば はるをはべつふたつのかげ

    さよなら・・・もうあいえないけど

    さよなら・・・ここでみまもるわ

    やくそくのはなまうそらで

    さよなら

    English lyrics: (courtesy of Diaura Creature, diaura-fans)

    "Let us meet again in the swirling season“ in the expanding pain

    'till the memories fade away, two shadows await the spring

    The insistence erodes the skin, but still it is to await that it is forgotten

    Only the beloved memory is a left, dim room

    'till now how many seasons have repeated and the sound of dieing words

    Even the left heart seeking the way is not found

    It's shaking and shatters this heart

    I'm still...

    "Let us meet again in the swirling season“ in the expanding pain

    'till the memories fade away, two shadows await the spring

    It's shaking and shatters this heart in the ending wind going to dance

    Only if you laugh for me

    The memories to the sky also the emotions returning from above

    The times we meet floating and sleeping

    Under the cherry blossoms burried promises

    'till they vanish supporting the shape

    "Let us meet again in the swirling season“ in the expanding pain

    'till the memories fade away, two shadows await the spring

    Goodbye... we can't meet again

    Goodbye... watching over here

    The blossom of promise dancing in the sky

    Goodbye

  5. Excited about this! I thought there was going to be a fourth single in December to maintain a "new single every three months" pattern, but a new album is better!

    I still haven't gotten their previous three singles, so I'm just going to wait until the album track list is revealed.


  6. For me personally, it's really difficult to make a tiebreaker for these two bands. DIR EN GREY has gotten me into the bands I listen to, (in my opinion/pov) they have had a huge impact on Visual Kei outside of Japan, and the scene would likely be much more obscure without them (whether or not you still think they are VK). If I had never discovered them, I would know nothing of the bands I listen to, and while I could've came across the name once or twice, I may not have been able to really get into the GazettE. Still, I seem to invest more of my time into the GazettE as of awhile, and since this really is a tie for me, I went with them.


  7. I kinda thought the same thing as sai did...

    Stronger Ayabie = old Ayabie?

    I honestly kind of doubt it, because it would be too good to be true.

    Either way, "ANSWER" has given me faith that the next thing they create will sound great!

    I do hope this hiatus can give them the opportunity to make another DEATHBIE release.


  8. I used to do pre-orders from Closet Child, which meant just sending an e-mail to them telling them which CDs I wanted, but I seem to have lost their address.

    Plus, I think they changed their ordering system for overseas people.

    Can anyone tell me if they still let you pre-order unlisted things by e-mailing (or at least asking if they will be able to get you a CD)? If so, what's the e-mail address?

    They changed the ordering system for overseas. Info here: http://www.closetchild-cd.jp/page/5. Don't e-mail them for order inquiries.


  9. YES IT'S ABOUT TIME! August is going to be a great month.

    sure :P

    Yeah, I said that because Trombe said the album was scheduled for release this month. This was before official release dates and the delay were all finalised. That being said, I'm actually kinda pissed that we have to wait to hear it until October!


  10. I think all the discs in the limited version are supposed to have their own cases with different artwork. I do like this idea, but the high-ass price tag completely ruins it (IMO so does the DVD). It's why the regular version is selling faster. If the GazettE were American or European, this idea would've worked, because fans would only be paying $25-30 instead of $90!

    I do like most of the previews, and I spend ridiculous amounts of money on music from time-to-time, but I'm not sure if I want to pay $90 for this...


  11. btw.

    Are there CD shops who do not send with EMS?

    or who say they send with EMS but if you can ask them to send with SAL?

    And what CD's shops beside YESASIA write on the parcels that the value of a CD is lesser as 20euro?

    Because of the stupid customs over here -.-

    Closet Child always writes the value as ¥1,000 and if you ask them, I believe they can send packages by SAL. They have an English speaking employee, so you can ask them questions by-email.
