saishuu

Listening to some of these old singles is like night and day compared to the old shitty rips that were floating around before, god bless.

We really should discus on how GREAT guitar solo on Masque.

How It remind me of II-Kaigi.

I agree, that guitar solo on Masque was god like haha. All the mini album was very good! I felt like listening to an old record by Nogod haha. I agree with you saishuu, their best in a long time!

Also, it's fun to see other fellows that enjoy NoGod! Cheers guys!

that guitar solo in Masque was fantastic! it went on forever but it was so worth it. when I thought it was over, Kyrie just kept going lmao he is a beast when he wants to.

I knew they wouldn't disappoint me with a mini-album (Rashinban remains their best work ever) and I'm really happy with how Shingeki came out.

THANK YOU MY LOVEEEEE

'this day. this rain.' still makes emotional to this day, jfc

Time for Mako to get a divorce and start serious band activities again before he's rotting in the ground. There's hope. 

let him enjoy marital bliss the man has clearly suffered enough lmao 

yasss thank you man!

MODS 

Absolutely. They were the best JdA-kei band ever

I mean c'mon, point me a vainqueur song better than this one

BLAZE disappointed me, but when NANIWA SAMBA came out.... that cut me deep. It took me a while to revisit FV after that. There are tracks like LIONHEART, Valencia and Virginia, and GLORIA that are nice~ish, but not nearly as polished as SINCREA's tracks.

yeah, I think so too, unfortunately =\

I believe they did an interview couple weeks ago stating that this was a revival for this event only, that yuuchi was really busy with sukekiyo, but maybe it sparks something in them to work it out somehow

thanks for the heads up!

oh damn, wasn't aware they'd talked about this before. it's too bad 😞

Saishuu topped me

ew no

Let's also not forget the underrated pioneers, Guruguru Eigakan. Anyone with knowledge of the Hirajoshi scale will easily hear that in their music. 

no, I'm talking about Kagrra, only here, make your own status

Maybe I will!

“Ark”.... that is all I have to say about that.

Dune >>>>>>>>

TIERRA it is!

I didn't hear anything about ayu, but I don't follow her, so idk. It's hard to imagine she's retire as well lol

I'll miss Namie so much.  Though it is sorta funny her final tour was called "finally."  😂

@God I like her even more for that lmao she truly wanted to be over with it all

Some aren't similar, but recommendations are: Blue Lemonade, Talk to Me, Peek-a-Boo, Hit That Drum, Power Up, Russian Roulette. 

thanks everyone for the recs! I'll give them a shot asap

except for @Peace Heavy mk II, you can rot

never denied it tbh

*listens to this breathy mess half-once*

reported x

shaking

ayyyyyyy

For the anxious like me:

@RickBuch you are great. thank you

It's starting to grow on me as well as of late. A lot of people seem to love it but now I'm starting to feel it.

SUGGESTIONS - Downtempo Metalcore
Mary's Blood - Power Metal

Rokugen Alice - Melodic Power/Gothic Metal, reminding myself of this awesome band

Hayashibara Megumi - only the songs from Slayers anime series

five months old - a doujin Progressive Metalcore band who plays re:arrangements of aikatsu songs.

FIESTAR, i know its not japanese, but its korean, and i only listen to one song, Apple Pie, cant get this goddamn song out of my head and when i start playing it its on for 2-3 hours nonstop.

the cibo, monoqlopanda, CRAZY VODKA TONIC, and quite a bit of Lucie, Too

Two others with no association whatsoever which I've been listening to on YT: 

Hideaki Tokunaga b/c Rainy Blue is my ritual

Kamiboku *cough* Mafumafu *cough* is a fun (and angst filled, lol) listen. 

Mostly stuff from the Guruguru Brain label; Kikagaku Moyo, Minami Deutsch, Sundays & Cybele and Dhidalah.
