Wonrei

in b4 new album comes with bonus cd: gauze re-recorded

First day had half of DSS, I bet second day will have the other half

all them harsh english words, full caps mode. this album couldn't get any more japanese

lol @ Ao now singing the Kimagure Orange Road theme

there's definitely some new things on some tracks: that volcano intro synth is different, and the drumming is a lot more aggressive on crazy flag, the guitar on shadan etc

Well, when I think of these bands inspired by old school vk they do get some things right, but they really forget about the production, mixing all this kind of "side" stuff. Grieva could really benefit from the shit tier cassette tape sound many old school bands had.

how to get russian models to sing for your japanese band I kinda wonder if their new style might be related to her

Wake? Nice one!

goth ninja is going to be a trend in vk im sure of it

I'd also say most "nagoya kei" bands are definitely indie/alt-rock influenced. Hell some of the 90's nagoya bands actually managed to produce some stuff that could remind you of Smashing Pumpkins and the likes

still waiting for my taiyou no ao

>INCREASE BLUE< u wot m8

It's probably his really round face with huge cheeks, this kind of face gets old-looking fast as fuck when he gets 45 he'll probably look 65 also lol @ entire pv being shot with huge lights on his face so it hides his age

jesus this guy is getting 2 old nice lineup tho

SO BABY HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD ON BABY HOLD TIGHT!!!!

after that yokan acoustic on die's show I'm almost sure they are probably working on yokan ballad version for one of their next b-sides

the guitars are so shoegazily beautiful on the chorus ;_; but the cover is like some bad witch house art. wt

Mask and 24 Cylinders ;_;

JE-FUCKING-SSICA Jesus Christ R'n'r what's wrong with these guys

Sounds a lot better than expected. A Lull on the rain reminds me of ...some old kuroyume stuff?

If this late 80's indie pop sound is what they go for when they come back, then I'm really fine with it

In a sense I always considered Shazna an almost oshare band. Shit they were too happy, even if compared to other 90's pop rock vk bands. There were many of those bands and yeah, I guess they kinda became a sound left on the 90's... too bad because that's what I like the most about 90's visual kei. I personally am very partial to Old VK, these pop rock bands being an important part on it. There's just nothing like their sound these days... stuff like that single D-shade album, early Siam Shade, Craze... they had a punkier edge but still had the melody sensibilities from visual kei.

DS has this really awkward camera zooming thing going on, it's just really cheap and makes the music video look like some goth video from 2004, and not in a good sense. the animu is bad 2 Sustain the untruth at least has a better work in the photography and filming, though the way they they throw the DISASTUR pictures was really cheap... Problem with Dir en grey pvs is that they are all directed by the same guy since Gauze. And this guy really isn't good about it. His page http://www.visualtrap.co.jp/vt/home001.html

yeah red soil sucks but this one is already a big step up from hageshisa and different sense, those 2 were based on cheap ass camera angles and shitty green screen

yeah, if you asked about visual kei that's probably what most japanese people are going to remember: the 90's bands like glay, sophia, wyse, etc
