There are a lot of unofficial ones yes but either they cost something or don't have the option to only sync some selected folders instead of the whole thing or they're only command line programs that need 8375026 other things installed first and then 294957 hours to configure them and 3846285 years to learn to use them
I hate technology I want to go live in a cave

| When the sum of the parts is worth more than the whole
Indie death metal/black metal outfit QEDDESHET crawled out of the most decrepit orifice imaginable sporting what would become their trademark sound in 2018, and instantly caught my attention for the vocalist's lackluster lip syncing and emotionless expressions in their "COLLAPSE" music video. Visual kei dabbles in many genres, but black metal and death metal are two of the most uncommon ones, and tend to be mixed with other, more easily accessible genres. QEDDESHET is having none of that, and refuse to adopt the quintessential visual kei sound despite nailing the visual aspect. In that regard, I'd classify this band along with the likes of Deviloof as a new tier of band pushing the extreme metal sound into a more brutal arena than ever before.I thought that I would love COCYTUS, or at least find it tolerable given my description, but I don't. It's a draining experience for a mini album that barely scratches a half hour. COCYTUS only ever moves at the speed of a blast beat, and the vocalist only has deep growls and deeper growls, so each song retains the same exact oppressive atmosphere. No matter how technically impressive playing all the goddamn notes in the universe at the speed of light is, it gets old when that's all there is. "CALL MY NAME", the second and oldest track on the mini album, is a perfect example of how QEDDESHET gets it right and wrong at the same time. It's much more textured than previewing the other four tracks would prime you to expect, but the transition to the poppy chorus takes all the wind out of its sails. The vocalist's reluctance to raise his voice any higher than a throaty mid range roar is at odds most when the chorus hits, and the result is awkward. The band is not on the same page during these rare moments. A lot of pain points can be easily solved if the vocalist adds mumbling, screeching, singing, and/or mid range guttural rapping to his toolkit. Literally anything to spice up the endless variations of garbage disposal gutturals would go a long way.
My review reads like I have a gigantic hate boner for this quartet, but COCYTUS is not a trash release. I try to reserve descriptions of "trash" for things that truly are bottom of the barrel, like idiot or I.T.G. QEDDESHET is bringing more metal sensibilities to the scene, and ultimately more influences is what keeps visual kei fresh. Not many other bands sport this sound, so there's an opportunity for them to carve out a niche. The vocalist is absolutely insane with some of the noises that he can do and is easily one of the best harsh vocalists the scene has ever seen. The rest of the musicians, especially the guitarists, can string some really mean riffs and beats together, although again I feel like there's a bit too much emphasis on speed and technicality over creating memorable melodies. I'm also digging the amorphous, avant garde structure of a lot of these songs, because passages and refrains rarely repeat. I would like to see what they are capable of with a slower pace and heavier riffs.COCYTUS is an acquired taste and it's not for everyone, and that is okay. It's not for me. It's a legit recommendation for those into the most extremes of metal, but that's about it.

There's a slight difference for me. I was in denial with D'espairsRay. They had elements of their old sound that would pop in now and again, but I could sense they had moved on and I lived for those rare throw back moments. DEZERT is legitimately over for me. There doesn't appear to be any, and I'm not sticking around on the off chance they record one more song that's a watered down rehash of some leftover B-side they shelved three years ago. -
2 hours ago, qotka said:It's kinda sad how it doesn't shock people. I'm sure many people found Chanty's blackface hilarious, the same way they associate black people with exaggerated gestures and funny intonations - pretty much the only representation they get in Japanese media.
I would bet that many people did. But like I said before, I wasn't very happy when I saw it. I didn't make a big stink of it, but I did not check Chanty out for quite some time simply because of that stunt. The first time I heard anything from Chanty was when someone put it on a mix, and then I swiped the mini and proceeded to never listen to it. I wasn't sad either when one of the members announced departure. I also refuse to review any of their material here. So these kinds of things do bother me and I do the things I can to express my displeasure, but I also realize that outside of here I have no power to change those attitudes.
2 hours ago, qotka said:It's sad mostly because Japan is not as homogeneous as the mainstream narrative goes. The people they find so hilarious work with them, go to school with them (or with their children), teach them English and live in the same neighborhoods with them. Plus they're exposed to western culture through media. So while I understand why it's not shocking (the discourse on race in Japan is... different), I don't think it's a reason to shrug and say 'oh well that's just the way Japan is'.
But that is the way Japan is! Even if there are other races in Japan, Japan has been and primarily will be Japanese. Japanese customs and culture dominates there and it goes way back, and all that history has an impact on the present. They have exposure to some parts of western culture but a lot of context is lost in translation, and that doesn't displace their culture, and race is one of those things. As a result, their culture puts less value on racial issues than ours does. It's unfortunate, and with time those attitudes can change, but right now that's the way it is. I don't like it, but I have no choice but to accept it. My country is still in the process of sorting its own racial issues out, so I'm willing to extend some patience to them in this aspect.
2 hours ago, qotka said:So did they mean anything by it? Not a big political statement, but using the same tired portrayal of black people for comedy is saying SOMETHING.
And I think this is the most important thing you said. It means SOMETHING, and that something is definitely unsavory, but that doesn't mean we can generalize about the political and religious beliefs of an entire race of people. The same thing goes for use of nazi imagery in visual kei. I know that they know what that symbolizes, and that it is insensitive, hateful, and inflammatory. I bet some artists do it for the shock value, some are more radicalized and believe in it, and some aren't associated with it at all. Plenty of songs feature speech snippets from Hitler, Goebbels, and the like, but these clips are used in many contexts. The simple inclusion of these clips doesn't mean they are automatically neo-nazis.
There was a poster in here I had to censor because they wrote several long manifestos, but between the ranting there was some lucid thoughts that do add some context to this discussion. They mentioned lyrics from several visual kei bands that could be interpreted as one or more band members having radical beliefs. Unfortunately, they did not include an English translation, so I can't verify. Can anyone find translations for the following songs so we can decide on our own?
Avanchick - Jinsei Game
THE GALLO - Maou -Yami Uta-
D.I.D. - nihilism.

What's the difference? No seriously, what's the difference. I see the alt-metal tag thrown around a bunch, but nothing that describes their sound. And considering how many breakdowns are on this album, I took the safer option
6 hours ago, Doesn'tEvenGoHere said:My best guess is that some of the members wanted to keep the early-dezert sound through their career while others wanted to go the exact same way as dezert and take a more pop rock-sounding direction. DAMY's sound had showed that conflict for some time now.
This may be your theory, but I was going to type something similar before I condensed the review. To sum up the spiel I didn't write, it seems like a stereotype that bands that adopt this sound hit a brick wall and eventually go pop rock. I never understood the duality in this, but it is very curious. DEZERT is just the most recent and prominent example of it, and maybe DAMY too (but we will need to follow members into their next project and see what it sounds like to know if your theory is correct). I can't really comment on previous activities, since this is where I jumped in, but I can believe it.

I wish I could find this picture right now, but when Chanty popped up on the scene they did it with blackface. That's what turned me off the band entirely. But did they mean anything with it? Probably not, because they live in a pretty homogeneous country and they don't have the cultural conditioning to understand why it is wrong. I would say they lack that conditioning so much, it wraps around the continuum and becomes something so foreign to them that it's not even shocking. Does that make any sense?

First, deniying the Holocaust is EXACTLY what neo nazis do. And Visual Kei Artists, do so, as posted by the japanese guy that lives in germany.
Second, IMPERIAL JAPAN WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT ALLY OF GERMANY AND THE WHOLE AXIS IN WW II BESIDES ITALY !!!!
How do you not know this???!!
THE ALLIES threw 2 NUCLEAR BOMBS to japanese cities full of people.
Third: Swastika is originally indo-aryan (vedic) symbol, before it became buddhist, iranic (scythian) and Pagan (european) symbol.
Visual Kei artists are secretly neo-nazis, and they are angry at ex-communist and ex-allies countries.
Is this good or bad? well, depends of who you ask. Same goes for capitalists/communists.
I agree with some of the points you made, but not with the conclusion. People do edgy shit all the time for attention. That doesn't mean they actually believe what they're doing. Visual kei bands appropriated nazi imagery years ago, but that doesn't mean they are automatically all neo nazis. Most bands have never appropriated this imagery, so by your logic most bands aren't neo nazis! We're going to need Akane-level outbursts on twitter saying they hate gays, jews, and blacks, or lyrics or interviews that say as much, before I would be willing to point to a band member and say "yep, that's a neo nazi right there".
If you wish to educate us some more, exactly who is it that you are thinking of and what proof do you have? Proof is the coin of the realm here on MH. -
I don't know why, but "Houyoku era" is enough to turn me off.
I've never liked Houyoku. I didn't like it when I was sampling random MUCC tracks and came across "Kokoro no nai machi". Didn't like it when I had more context to their band activities and listened to Houyoku in the intended order. Didn't even like the cuts that made their way onto their "BEST OF" collection album a few years back. There's an air of ingenuity surrounding the album, and it's so clear to hear that the band dropped the depressive phase cold turkey. This feeling that I have towards Houyoku doesn't go away when I listen to Gokusai either, because Gokusai sounds effortless in its approach to the same style of sound. I even tried listening to Houyoku last week! I felt nothing. Anything remotely resembling Houyoku sends me into the pits of boredom.
It's tragic that I had to compare DEZERT to Houyoku but that's what it is. I did not mean anything negative when I wrote it, because I feel like I'm the only person in the world who actively dislikes that album, but there was nothing like it in all of visual kei until DEZERT 2.0 showed up. That's why there's still a niche for DEZERT to fill here, but a sound I found uninteresting then is still uninteresting to me now, and I think that I find DEZERT so boring for the same reasons I don't like Houyoku. It's going to take some time for the band to find themselves and mature even further, and perhaps we will see this band follow a trajectory similar to MUCC, but I don't see myself sticking around waiting for that to happen. -
| It's hard to talk about an album that does nothing new but manages to be interesting anyway
I've heard whispers about the potential of DAMY from many corners of Monochrome Heaven, but I have an unofficial rule about listening to visual kei bands in their infancy. I don't like getting attached to promising bands only to watch them fizzle out, and bands that do that are a dime a dozen in visual kei, so I'm about six months to a year behind on what's new by design. I always had intentions to check them out, but nothing motivated me like their disbandment announcement. It's now or never, and 自己中心的リミッター (Jigokuchuu Shinteki Limiter) should capture DAMY at their most mature, and I figured it would be a logical place to start.
If you are anything like me, you know DAMY best by their aesthetic. It's dark and gruesome, with erratically applied makeup and synchronized outfits that drive the theme home. They sound exactly like they look; close your eyes and imagine generic metalcore riffs with a pinch of inspiration, and you're pretty close. DAMY has all the trappings of the turn of the century metalcore visual kei sound that I've come to both love and hate. The vocalist is a bit weak and nasal with a high pitched singing voice, but he has a quality and charisma to his delivery so I can overlook that most of the time. His harsh vocals can be quite savage sometimes too. The riffs are usually where I give visual kei bands a lot of grief, and to be honest I was expecting 自己中心的リミッター to be a monotonous affair, but DAMY spice it up and keep it interesting the whole time. Musical themes range from pure aggression to madness play, and even a few more lucid moments where the pop chorus hooks worm their way in, but I was disappointed to find that they didn't go outside of the box too much.
What I'm saying is that 自己中心的リミッター sounds equally generic and distinctly visual kei, a love letter to a time in visual kei long past. While you have definitely heard flavors of this style before, you haven't heard it combined in this way, and that's the strongest case I have for giving this album a shot. For example, the guitars in lead single "ままごと" (Mamagoto) are transported right out of the 90s, and is something I'd expect to hear on a La:Sadie's demo tape. On the other hand, album opener "心髄" (shinzui) rips 2:57~3:03 straight from MUCC's "蘭鋳" (Ranchuu) 2:20~2:23, and it only took me one listen to catch that bit of worship and know exactly what DAMY was all about. That is what makes DAMY the best 6/10 band one could hope for.
A part of me thinks that 自己中心的リミッター may mark the beginning of the end for a strain of visual kei that's stuck around for over a decade. It may not have the lasting impact on the scene the way Dir en grey's GAUZE did, which is widely regarded as the apex of the 90's sound, but for once I have no idea what band will step up to fill the void. I've always seen DAMY as playing second fiddle to DEZERT, who before they changed up their sound, were ultimately were playing homage to bands like MUCC, Dio-distraught overlord-, and UnsraW in their own right! Even まみれた (Mamireta) have moved on after exploring this sound for a few releases. キズ (Kizu) might step up, but the crown is open for the taking, and there doesn't seem to be a lot of bands wanting to take it.
Could that be because the scene has been saturated with this style for too long? Is it a feeling that "everything that can be done has been done", and that there's nothing new in this style anyone can offer? Or is it something else? I'm interested in knowing your thoughts and what you think the implications of DAMY's disbandment has on the rest of the scene.
Support the band!

A lot of what we've heard about from Kisaki in the past is hear say. Drama from the 90's may as well be fairy tales. It's very hard to pin down a lot of salacious behavior to anything resembling a serious crime. That's why I think this comparison misses the mark a bit; it's true that visual kei has its dusty corners where I wouldn't want to be caught sneezing, but @Gesu also has a point in that big enough crimes get prosecuted independent of any affiliation to visual kei. This ain't Kisaki's first brush with the law, and the media was also quick to snap up SHINTARO from BLACK CAT and Setsuna from THE EGOIST for their crimes.

I found out I was allergic to all dairy products the hard way. I was not always allergic to dairy, but when I was younger I remember not drinking a lot of cow milk and instead drinking a lot of soy or almond milk. No one really explained to me why, but they figured I had an intolerance to milk and it was better if I never drank it. But give me ice cream, cheese, yogurt, milk chocolate, or basically any dairy or dairy adjacent product and I would devour it. That's why it took so long for me to put 2 and 2 together.
I honestly blame the amount of stress my job places on me as well as one particular individual who was the straw that broke the camel's back. This woman could singlehandedly take my stress levels and triple it by just being around me and being her dumb, idiotic self. I think this set off some sort of autoimmune reaction in my body and now I can't eat dairy at all. I didn't realize this had happened for two years and food which I would once eat without a second thought was getting me sick. The problem with American processed foods is that milk is in everything. They'll straight up lie to you and say "no dairy" on the front and "may contain milk" on the back, or they think that if they call milk "whey" that it's not the same thing (it is).
At this point I have to explain the difference between lactose intolerance and a milk allergy because it is not the same thing at all. When I was younger, I had intolerance. I could drink a cup of milk and get a mild tummy ache. Now I have a full blown allergy and if I drink an entire cup of milk I'm vomiting and shitting my brains out for the next few hours. Intolerance is a reaction to the milk sugars. Allergy is a reaction to the milk proteins. Lactaid does not help because it is milk + the enzyme needed to break the sugars down. I have the enzyme but my body no longer plays well with milk proteins.
I suffered for about 2 to 3 years before a gastroenterologist shoved a camera down my throat (endoscopy) and saw what poor shape my stomach was in. GERD + UC and losing 45 pounds over 2 years was what it took for doctors to give me the milk allergy test, diagnose me as being highly allergic, and then telling me to change my diet up. But by this time the damage was done and now there are a lot of other foods and drinks that I cannot eat or else I will get sick. There's no real list now; I just have to eat everything and see how I feel.
Discovered this morning that alcohol is now off limits
Allergies are real fuckin scary. My grandma almost died when she was younger because she was under so much stress, her body started rejecting all sorts of food. She couldn't eat anything for a while and had to get an IV feed to get nutrients back into her body. I think this is something that runs in my family, like high cholesterol and an almost zen like tolerance for pain. -

On 3/11/2019 at 10:19 AM, violetchain said:God, this one is funny on so many levels.
Before I get into it, random disclaimer: I have nothing against women, International Women's Day, or dedicating the entire month of March to women. Go women! Good vibes for females all around.
I feel really bad for that Ambrose dude, and for all guys that find themselves in a similar emotional predicament. A lot of the assumptions and caricatures we make about men like these are rooted in real insecurities. His hostile reaction to this picture really shows it off. The way I'm looking at it, he's not mad that women are getting actively praised and recognized as much as men aren't being actively praised and recognized. And the key word there is actively, which is why I put it in bold it three times.
What's happening globally doesn't always trickle down to the individual experience and this is a great example of that. While men are more privileged than women in many aspects of life, it is possible that this particular man isn't. He doesn't have the tools, the vocabulary, or the emotional maturity to reconcile what the world thinks he is versus what he really is, or how to express that to other people. All he sees is women being lifted up for being women, and wondering why he doesn't get the same treatment for being a man. Of course the reality is more complicated than that, but even a satellite sees at only one angle.
People responded to the post below him reminding him that men have their own day too, but does that really matter? That day doesn't get as much traction as International Women's Day and I can tell you that people weren't thanking me for being me on that day just because I'm a guy. I can tell you that it's never been the case for my entire life. I think this really speaks to a lack of active and direct support for men in our society. I would bet 50 quid that this guy hasn't received a genuine hug or a compliment from anyone in years and it shows. He might be doing it to himself - he probably is doing it to himself in some ways - but what really matters on a surface level is what is and isn't coming together.
That's why I said actively was so important earlier; I feel like this society has a lot of implicit support for men but only if you meet certain criteria, and that's never really explained to anyone. This guy is lost and confused and there aren't a lot of socially acceptable avenues for him to describe his pain. I was there once too and that's how I recognize it. Active and implicit support is necessary for healthy human development. As a man I feel like I have a lot more opportunities in life, but I also feel like I'm left to figure more things out by myself. I bet his life experiences causes him to double down on his beliefs because according to him, this life is all he knows. I also bet this Twitter exchange gone viral caused a triple down too. This attitude is what happens when you leave people to figure life out on their own and they come to answers the rest of us don't agree with. I was able to pull myself out of that quagmire, but I couldn't really describe to you how it was done.
Lies. I can and it's called LSD, but I don't recommend it to anyone lightly.
This is something I've been thinking about all month, and not out of a place of hate. Men aren't being petty because women are getting attention. Men are being petty because they are lost. I don't know what it feels like to be praised for being a man, but I do know what it feels like to be praised for being black, and that puts me in a really awkward middle ground where I'm in both groups simultaneously and I see both sides of it, and I understand how both sides are right. From talks with several male friends of mine, ranging from chads to dads, it's not that uncommon of a feeling. All these guys having so many insecurities in common is a bigger issue.
I hope that this November, someone can start a viral campaign for actively supporting healthy expressions of masculinity, to give a lot of guys like this a chance to work out their inner discord in a healthy and constructive manner. -
Color me all of the shades of not surprised.
I warned you guys in my TODAY review that this is where they were going to go, and I warned you in the split-single review that just because they can be heavy doesn't mean that they are going to stay heavy. I hate to write off a loss but I've sat through too many renditions of bands losing their way trying to redefine themselves with a "lighter, more accessible sound". Bands seem to be confusing accessibility with being interesting; plenty of musicians are able to write interesting and compelling folk, pop, and rock music. This change seems too heavy handed for me. They threw out everything they've cultivated about their style and replaced it with the most unconvincing outfits and music.
The saddest part is that they tried an experiment by gifting MUCC a song of theirs that fits MUCC like a glove, and MUCC knocked it out of the park, and I still didn't like it. That's indicating to me less that I can't "get over myself", and more that the music is not connecting with me anymore.
Oh well, not the first time I've pretended like a band disbanded. -

7 hours ago, CAT5 said:Interesting. When you change your tune up, or manifest peculiar behavior to those around you, most would rather make assumptions about said change and delve into gossip, slander, and backbiting instead of simply seeking genuine inquiry into the matter. What is the core motivation for such behavior?
This is par the course tho. And I'd say it speaks volumes about human nature.
That's because drama is free and easy to make.
I also blame the current state of our society. We've been conditioned to peel back the surface layer and look for deeper meaning like a desperate high school English teacher trying to connect the color of a wall to the protagonist's clinical depression. We tell ourselves that what we see isn't always it, and that there's always a deeper meaning, even though some things should very much be taken at face value. Some people also look for change as a confirmation in their suspicions, because you wouldn't change if you had "nothing to hide". Honestly, I think it ends up revealing the limits of other people's compassion, understanding, courage, and sometimes even love. I take it as a blessing if I better myself and someone outs themselves as an asshole with no effort on my part to do so! -
So this topic is halfway thru its lifespan...kinda hard to think that one day we will have a random thoughts 2 thread. Maybe, maybe not, depends on if the forum software is updated to let us go past that limitation of 950 pages. But 950 page topics are absolutely ridiculous, and I've seen other forum software cap out at much less, like 500 pages or so, so I am not going to hold my breath.

Hi guys!
Turns out that in the forum there's a limit of the number of pages that can be in one topic, and that is around 950 pages. The first topic was so popular we passed that limit! I'm starting a new topic so you guys can post here.

| It's a fact that this single is compelling enough to check out.
My dislike of live limited and live distributed releases is well known on this website by now, but I'm more than willing to make an exception for split singles. The new MUCC×DEZERT live distributed split 蟲／ガチャガチャムクムク (Mushi/Gachagacha-Mukumuku) grabs my interest more than usual. I follow DEZERT casually and I followed MUCC a little less casually back in the prime days of international visual kei, but both bands underwent a change in direction that blunted my hype. As two bands that I don't actively follow anymore, I found it very interesting that each band wrote a song for the other to perform. I was more interested in knowing what DEZERT would create for MUCC to perform, considering my reaction to their recent change in sound, but MUCC are no slouches themselves.
It was MUCC's song that surprised me more. The speed and attitude of "蟲" (Mushi) is what I was hoping for more of from TODAY, and it fits DEZERT like a glove. If there were any doubts as to whether DEZERT could even be heavy anymore, this song erased them. It's a bittersweet feeling knowing that the ability is there but the desire to create music like this is not, because "ガチャガチャムクムク" (Gachagacha-Mukumuku) is more along the lines of what one can expect DEZERT to create.
If DEZERT did a good job covering "蟲" (Mushi) , then MUCC absolutely owned "ガチャガチャムクムク" (Gachagacha-Mukumuku). If I didn't know that DEZERT wrote this song, I could be reasonably convinced that this is an MUCC track inspired by their 鵬翼 (Houyoku) era. That's a huge compliment to DEZERT's composing skills. It's slightly better than average - I do think the song gets more engaging as it goes on - but it's not a song I see myself revisiting again and again.
I have to note that this split is making several statements at once. It seems that MUCC is showing DEZERT how to switch their sound up without having to abandon rock. DEZERT wants to show the world that if you like their compositions when performed by MUCC, maybe you could grow to like it if they performed it too. This is a senior band mentoring a junior band through a turbulent time in their musical career in a constructive manner, and I would like to see more of this in general.
蟲／ガチャガチャムクムク does a good job at showing the flexibility of both bands. It's a great way for MUCC to get additional exposure, and it's a great way for DEZERT to convince old fans and gain new ones. I'm unsure if either band fully won me back with just one song, but I am much more likely to check out their future releases because of this. If you like either band, I would recommend you check this novelty out, but try not to judge them by it too much. -
@SilverEspeon__, if that's the name you choose to use from now on, I may have been a tad harsh in the last message I tagged you in.
You don't have to leave this site permanently. You just need to learn Monochrome Heaven Rules and Monochrome Heaven Etiquette. The first is in a topic that you should review if you even feel like lurking here. The second is something you pick up only by engaging with the community in a healthy and constructive manner. Plenty of users on our site are going through tough things in their life and they come here as a place of refuge. I have no doubt this can be the same for you, if you want that for yourself. Jump into topics, start topics that interest you, show yourself in the chat every now and again, stop beating yourself up over nothing, and before long you won't feel like a stranger here. But if you do weird things to draw attention to yourself, at best you'll be ignored and at worst...we'll you've seen what happens already so you have a good idea. -
