Did you say something to him as well? Also, found this on livejournal People said it reminded them of our thread here: One day Kiwamu decided to write a song. Kiwamu asked his coworkers, "Who will help me write the song?" "Not I," said the lazy GPK . "Not I," said the lazy shit foreigner. "Not I," said the lazy former members of BLOOD. Then Kiwamu decided to write lyrics for the song. Kiwamu asked his coworkers, "Who will help me write the lyrics?" "Not I," said the lazy GPK as he goofed off . "Not I," said the lazy shit foreigner as he took illegal photos. "Not I," said the lazy former members of BLOOD as they made funny sock puppets with Kiwamu's angry face. When the lyrics were finished Kiwamu needed to record the song. Kiwamu asked his coworkers, "Who will help me record the song?" "Not I," said the lazy GPK who was too busy partying. "Not I," said the lazy shit foreigner who complained of a broken computer. "Not I," said the lazy former members of BLOOD who weren't involved with Kiwi's current project anyway and didn't give a shit. After Kiwamu finished recording the song, he began to sell CDs and made some money from shit fans. Kiwamu asked his coworkers, "Who will help me spend the profits?" "I will," said the lazy GPK. "I will," said the lazy shit foreigner. "I will," said the lazy former members of BLOOD. "No!" said Kiwamu. "I will! Because my greedy!" And Kiwamu spent the money on a new chair to replace the one he broke while beating up fans.

Wow... I can't believe Kiwamu vs. Shit foreigner actually happened.

Indeed. XD I'm actually kinda curious to hear them now. Though they're probably crappy as hell. Which reminds me, the Crappy indies topic has been kind of inactive for a while. Think of it as a possible add.

^ You actually look like a mix of TOP and GO

Likes watching Naruto.

Boring, as I expected :/

^Lol EU only has trading agreements within the EU, but not with the rest of the world We like to think we can do it all alone. Also the tax here is just forced upon you. The delivery guy from the post office rings the doorbell and tells you how much tax you have to pay. You'll only get your package after you've paid him the taxes in cash. If you think it's bullcrap or can't/won't pay the taxes, he'll just take the package with him back into the van, so yeah, you don't have much of an option here :/

7.7 is a great date for me, but I might have resits of college exams, if I fail one :/ And I won't know until a week beforehand :/

^ Me neither. Not to mention his music is awful, I'd have to get drunk to sit through that shit tbh.

lololol good old Kiwamu strikes again! I don't like his music either, so I'm not going and can't share stories. I actually really wanted a signed chair though But it only counts if he's thrown it.

Actually he's in his full right to say so. He wasn't rude and even added "please", so please everybody stay polite before everything goes escalating. Not using the color because it's not really necessary, but seeing as this is just a rumor and there is no official announcement we'll just have to assume for now it's not true. Also the disbandment of this band is better left in their artists topic.

this. This also, but that's only when it comes to Visual Kei. Other non-VK bands in the J-Rock scene I am not too familiar with (so far I only listen to some pop-rock groups along with Boris) so I'm still trying new bands and releases there. For VK it has mostly stopped unless the previews are interesting, like Nyasagi quoted. Recent example of this is A.

Lol Boyfriend sucks ass. No, this just wasn't good. I've never liked anything after Hit Your Heart tbh. Also the way CUBE is marketing Hyuna is getting on my nerves. The girl is only 19, for fuck's sake, stop portraying her like a stripper.

Yesasia does make a difference, I've had worth of about 60 dollars and wasn't charged.

I ordered a CD around that worth in 2011 with EMS and I didn't have any taxes. That was in January though. When the DVD came (which was like 4900 yen) I did have to pay taxes. I used EMS and it took 2 weeks to arrive :/ But that was mainly because the earthquake had occured only a month earlier and all packages from Japan that were sent to the Netherlands were being intimately inspected on nuclear activity. That also might've had a massive thing to do with it. If all packages are being inspected, then they'll automatically check the worth and tax it with costums :/ I didn't know back then though, I ordered that DVD somewhere end January, before the disaster. After that I never ordered at CDJapan again and switched to Yesasia, because I know I won't get taxes there. The CDJapan worker advised me (if I would buy again from them) to use Airmail, because the chance of being caught is way smaller than with EMS. Can anyone confirm if this is true?

^ It does, i tried it. My package worth was 58 dollars, but the one who packaged it wrote worth: 8 dollars on the package, so it won't even get picked out.

^You can also order them from coolJAPANstore, they're not that expensive and it'll save the work If you still want to make them yourself, I think the article info on coolJAPANstore will list the size of the flags. Or maybe you can buy them at the gig? Not sure, I still need to learn that flag dance xD Also the interview is nice. They're playing Torikagogoten?

But since it's mostly Republicans coming up with these bills and the entire American government is made up of Democrats vs. Republicans, there's a big chance Obama will veto them all (maybe not because he completely disagrees, but also for the fact it's a Republican idea). If the US gets a Republican president (maybe Ron Paul not included) the entire world is screwed. Since Ron Paul doesn't seem to get much support from the Republican voters (since he's only a moderate Republican and not against gay marriage and stuff) I'm afraid he won't make it as the Republican candidate for this year's election. It'll probably be Romney or Santorum going up against Obama. Goddamnit Obama win that election or else.

Only 25 more days! I'm actually counting right now. Hoping for a signing session still, or maybe they'll play Dying Message?

First off I have to say that I'm genuinely surprised with this album. THE KIDDIE's stuff has always been kind of hit and miss for me, since I found most of their songs to be boring or generic. Their major debut was no different and neither was BRAVE NEW WORLD, on which I only really liked 2 songs. It's not that the songs they make are bad, they are quite boring in my opinion. I was actually really surprised when they released Nutty Nasty and after that Utsukushiki REDRUM. Both were very solid and good singles with excellent tracks (Nutty Nasty having the best B-sides, but Utsukushiki REDRUM having the best A-side they've ever done), which actually made me excited for this album. The PV for the title track didn't do much for me in the beginning, but it definitely grew on me and I started to like it more and more. After listening to the full album a few times I must honestly say that they didn't disappoint in what I was asking from them. My expectations were high, especially after Utsukushiki REDRUM. What I like about this album is its variety. The songs range from regular pop-rock to darker melodies and really cool summer songs. They've been throwing in some more random instrumentation in order to experiment, and it worked very well here. The first half in it's whole is better than the second half of the album, but unlike Matenrou Opera's Justice it isn't such a bad thing that it prevents you from listening to the entire album in one go. If you excuse the two or three slightly boring/generic tracks on here, it's a great album, which can go into my category of potential best of 2012. Favourites: MA★PIECE, mr. FIREBIRD, 茜射ス空、落チル影, Nutty Nasty, Summer Dream, Destination, Utsukushiki REDRUM and the bonus track. OK songs: Sun'z up, 来世の女神 A bit boring: ハッピーエンドが待っている, 二人のメモリーズ, stand by me Overall: 8.5/10

Lol this.

Didn't like the mini at all. The songs were just boring and didn't stick with me like they should've. I don't like the MV that much either :/ Sometimes within 4minute i get the feeling it's Hyuna ft. the rest.

I had the same last year. I ordered a live DVD and had to pay 22,81 in taxes. Someone told me you don't have that much chance for taxes if you use Airmail, but I've been using yesasia for shopping now. They just change the worth of the package on the sticker, so no customs because the worth is too low. But I'm Dutch as well. X-Marc told me he often has to pay taxes as well. If the worth is bigger the chance is bigger you'll get them, but they've been way stricter lately :/

Maybe because they're greedy? XD

For every tour they've done they have a different intro. Inishi no Ibuki was one of the few ever released on disc though. I think they released the one for the VAMPIRE SAGA one on some special USB drive. So it depends if they sell it at the tour on a special USB or not, so there's not really an answer unless you've been to all their tours. I had a question about Boris. They released this song for a PSP game back in February, but I haven't seen them release a new single/album whatever. Does a full version of that track exist?
