    sounds like a song that's like "hey gazette would you make a ballad?" and there's your answer.

    it's good tho ! not like exciting-beautiful but very smooth song .

    i hope the album's more diverse and balanced, but not like beautiful deformity --

    it looks like one of those cheap kanye merch back from the 2012,

    sort of like givenchy style graphics that was so hyped up around that time

     

    nonetheless, i am curious of their music - like i always have 

    but at the same time, a sense of little prediction - like i always have :)

     Sad that Korean VK is almost non-existent.

    rock in korea is basically dead and it's nearly impossible to resurrect it. 

    there are only handful of bands with potential and yet, they struggle to sustain any substantial music

    because korean music scene is under heavy dictatorship of cheap bubblegum pops and hype-based trendy rap music (and trust me, 90% of them are not even tasteful).

     

    as someone who have seen the slow and painful demise of korean rock (as if any of it has existed in the past),

    i blame on the lack of cultural depth of koreans and their untreatable trait of vulnerability to hype and trendy stuffs,

    and above all, their perceptions on 'rock' being something loud, serious, and intimidating.

     

    underground venues at hongdae and deahak-ro were slowly replaced with techno clubs and bars, 

    so-called "bands" like nell eventually became more mainstream-friendly (not that i blame, they need-ed in order to survive), 

    oldschool k-rockers like pia, schizo, etc became almost extinct (not if they are playing major venues like pentaport . . . which also became sellouts to pop and indies)

    even pseudo rocker seotaiji didnt even last 2 years.

     

    rock was never a thing for koreans. 

    maybe for only a few, but not for the vast.

    it's a cultural thing i say -

    Kyo looks ugly as hell lol, the covers too

     

    i think that's the point isnt it ? 

    kyo was never supposed to be 'pretty' (that age of stupidpretty is d.e.d.)

     

    and yet, i love current kyo's fashion !

    he'd probably wearing something high-end what average people wouldn't even recognise / understand

    he has been into designer brands since some years ago (rick owens, julius, saint laurent, kenzo, etc, and just recently, gucci-all over)

    and his style seems a little similar to oleg dou's.

     

    but i agree on the covers being a little weird. but i do understand their point

     

    i need this single.

    j-rock has been in a drought since february .

    I actually think Kiyoharu's voice has held up pretty damn well considering he always has a cigarette in hand XD

     

    i cannot agree with you more .

    he has been using e-cig for sometime , altho he went back to the normal ones .

    he's a stereotype chainsmoker j-rocker

     

    anyhow, im pre-ordering the february release !
