"i dont know what's popular anymore in modern visual kei, here's us doing pretty much exactly what just about every semi-popular band nowadays is doing"

but sweaty, i've been here all along

These dudes seem to be trying so hard to get that Major Label Acknowledgement but it just doesn't seem to be working out

It took 10 years to record because the members spent 10 years trying to learn english

they deprogrammed Toshi from his weird cult thing for THIS.....

This goes in my personal "top 5 worst sentences i've ever read in a music review"

That opening track on the most recent album was actually really good, but so many of the other songs after that seem to be following these kind of typical 'neo-PTisms' that I'm honestly a little bit tired of by now.. I agree though, those two post-rock experiments were pretty good, and an indication of where they COULD go if they werent so... hesitant to go out of the comfort zone i guess?

In all honesty though? I feel like these dudes would be more than capable of continuing as a reasonably solid fully instrumental act.. I just kind of feel they probably wouldn't get major-label support for it, and (probably) the average VK fan wouldn't really be able to stomach it either due to the lack of a frontman

''Sugar'' stands for MiA's BR sugar daddy ''Dry'' stands for his bangya after they find out there's other girls in the band

the future of visual kei..........

*third world workers also imagine just accidentally ending up in the official dir en grey group chat

maybe it was actually a sponsored live @ the local butcher shop, Ikebukuro Lamb Chop. . . . .

i was there & the doll directly turned to face me and said my full name, kinda weird but i thought it was just part of the song

What kind of *watches Hannibal ONCE* realness is this

Awfully kind of them to name a tour after Shinya Seems I might finally have to get my ass to either Helsinki again (or go to Poland )....

i wonder what they mean with those song titles....

heh my collages, photography, random shit.

They had me with that other PV posted earlier in this thread and they lost me again with everything posted afterwards lol

Finally a look I actually like again... I'm sure the actual music's gonna be good, these guys have been on a roll lately. Lowkey hoping for another full-length album by the end of the year / start of next year

If this one turns out to be bad, I'm probably gonna drop 'em permanently.. Their recent stuff ever since the 2nd full album's been kinda disappointing.

The truly good shit is when you're told in the feedback given by the opponent for your thesis defense to include more references to academic sources in certain parts of your thesis and there just don't seem to be any that are directly relevant to what you're trying to say in those sections

It's been 5 years already? Holy shit, at this point they're gonna end up outliving deadman

For what it's worth, that city he performed in in the Netherlands is known for this kinda stuff: Maybe an idea for a switch in target audience?

Isn't this their 2nd one already?
