Preview of the collaboration song is out.
Nice infusion of the use of an elevator into the reveal.

Tokage reacted to hopefully_benign in Which visual kei trope would you ban?
Obsessively distinguishing between active bands and inactive bands ('active-only' all-time favorites lists, etc). As if a band never existed as soon as they split up. As if defunct bands don't constantly have reunions, and active bands don't constantly split up. etc.
afaik no other genre has a fanbase that cares so much about activeness.

Tokage reacted to seys in DIMLIM
someone posted a "translation" in the comments
Q1. Please introduce yourself.
A: My name is Retsu, I play the guitar on DIMLIM
Q2. What is the nature of your human being?
A: It’s a weakness
Q3. Why do you think so?
A: I’m really weak but they are not always weak. Weakness is also strength. I face that weakness every day.
Q4. What do you have in mind when you compose music?
A: I don’t know anything about music theory, so, I enjoy the chemical reaction of phrases while writing songs. I also have in mind to space things out, if you listen to it you will be able to see the scene clearly. (Note: Retsu means phrase in the sense of a phrase in music theory; lazy copy paste here: “In music and music theory, phrase and phrasing are concepts and practices related to grouping consecutive melodic notes, both in their composition and performance. A musical work is typically made up of a melody that consists of numerous consecutive phrases.” I also want to note I’m not sure about that “have in mind to space things out”; what the Japanese subtitles say tho is that “also it’s to emit sounds that don’t exist in this world”. Anyway, I think he means experimenting and adding sounds together to create a scene.)
Q5. Why did you decide to release MISC. now?
A: It goes around the same place and has seem like(?) content. Nothing interesting. So we released the exact opposite. (Note: sorry the first line is really hard for me to understand; but the Japanese subs say that in this world there’s only content that spins around in the same spot)
Q6. What do you mean by going around the same place?
A: Everybody gets along in a small world. I don’t think that’s necessary. There is rarely no need to get along.
Q7. Don't be influenced by others. Be yourself. "What is your real intention?
A: As you said, there are few people who are themselves. I think so no matter what you look at. I leave it up to others to dress up, listen to the faces of people I can’t see. I wave a flag of the opposite colour, if you have something to say why don’t you do it? I think so
Q8. Compared to the previous album "MISC.", I feel that there are less exposed haites in the songs and lyrics. Why?
A: I don’t think so at all, I’d rather throw it straight in the middle
Q9. Who would you like to listen to?
A: I want people all over the world to listen. If love is the only thing in the relationship to death? It’s time to take off your glasses and look for the real
Q10. What was the most difficult song to record this time?
A: All the songs
Q11. Why is that?
A: (?) don’t dress a song (Note: Retsu is saying it’s because he doesn’t flare the musical composition with unnecessary shit, so it’s not overworked I assume)
Q12. May 9 is the first performance of this year in Japan, but why is it performed more than 3 months after the release of "MISC."?
A: I want you to come after you know it well. We are ready to accept your thoughts. So bring your ugly (?) and or your suspicions (Note: we want you to come after you’ve gotten familiar with it, we’re ready to receive what you think of it, so bring your ugly thoughts/views/opinions and suspicions you have of the album with you to the venue)
Q13. Why is the performance at Shibuya WOMB?
A: When I first saw it I thought it was the only place. See you at the show
