The only japanese autism musician who I know is the composer Hikari Ōe, and yes mental "ailments" is still  a taboo in Japan , only few musicians talk about this subject like Ryo the singer of Baroque and Kannivalism who suffered of adjustment disorder.
He had written  his autobiography Utsu-byo Rocker (Depressed Rocker),  in his book Ryo describes his grueling struggle with the illness in five chapters each called 'Mental Breakdown', 'Adjustment Disorder', 'Life in Hospital', 'Return to Society' and 'Life and Death'.

You also have Fukase the singer of the jrock band Sekai no Owari he was interned in specialized institute for treat his attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

I guess we may also add ex-D.I.D. to that particular category, as IIRC he's been diagnosed with BPD if I'm not mistaken. 

it's still kind of sad that such things are so stigmatised over there, but at the same time, I guess they still are to some extent in the rest of the world as well, so...

The major problem is for many asian countries (Japan, China, Korea, Philippinnes,Vietnam, Hong-Kong,Singapore etc...) they associated that with weakness, guilt, and shame.

For them say to their familly or friends they suffer of mental "ailments" they will "lose their face" infront of them and in asian societies when you 'lose your face" you lose your social standing, reputation, influence, dignity, and honor, so for "save their face" they prefer keep that for them.

I hope one day they will change their point of view about that.

Thanks! Going to spend it wisely listening to some kvlt music. Or maybe just sleeping more. Haven't decided yet.

Listened to it once so far, pretty good. It seems like an album that needs to grow on you, I guess.

wow i love mana-sama's music *_*

Bonjour!

should I be upset that I actually knew of this song before now

dadaroma would

fucked up but true is that the instrumental reminds me of cascade for some inexplicable reason

Yeah, really enjoyable almost all the way through and I love that they dropped these artificial sounding vocal harmonies, sounds way more natural now

LOL, thanks!

Track 3 on their comeback single is super sugoi

There is hardly anything amusing about this feud. They care about the election because they do not approve of our laws, language, culture and religion and only think of their own country, and / or warping ours to their own hand. Well, then go back home and leave the most diverse and culturally accepting country in all of the European Union. They do not think of themselves as Dutch, they think of themselves as Turks only. Let's hope tomorrow changes this all, I know who gets my vote.

I can't help but wonder sometimes why people move to countries where they clearly don't fit in, nor do they want to fit in? I mean, turks aren't refugees, so they can't use that excuse... I know that I'd feel uncomfortable moving to a country that differed strongly in moral values from my own, so I wonder what drives them.

A lot these protestors did not move here, they are second generation and were born here from parents who moved to the Netherlands because we requested Turkish workers in the 60's to 80's. I do not know why they feel so inherently Turkish only when sharing two nationalities, though. My dad works in a steel processing factory and most of his colleagues are Turkish (those from the aforementioned migration plan), and a lot of them are ashamed of their offspring and the general rebellious Turkish / Arab youth.

I know a few members share your thoughts Carmelzors.

Yoshiki probably already has full Air Band kits in preparation xD.

And plot twist, it's a surprising success. Not because it's just literally imaginary instruments. No, because one of Yoshiki's business plights finally didn't fail!

He once teased us with a blank CD two years ago.

~feels~

holy shit a vaporware video with an actual budget.

They experimented with losing their fanbase xoxox
