    Uh, his daughter must have been a pregnant teenager then. I seriously, seriously doubt that's true.

    Considering the wiki has 90% of the D'espairsRay information wrong, too, I wouldn't trust it. I suspect it's made up, a mistranslation from elsewhere, or such a widespread rumour that people actually believe it's true.

    What can't Mukunoki find? He doesn't just buy concert tickets for you. You can give him a link to whatever you want to buy from a Japanese website (puresound, Yahoo Auctions, mbok, bidders, a band's official website or webshop, etcetc., which is where you're most likely to find band merchandise for sale) and he'll buy it for you. He's really the best choice for this sort of thing because he's 100% reliable and really friendly. I've used him to join D'espairsRay's fanclub three times, to order merch from Yahoo Auctions Japan, and goodies from official webshops. He's the best, imo.

    Everyone I know who has tried using a different service has always gone back to him.

    I have to agree with the first paragraph above. Not many of my favourite Japanese bands have released a full length this year and it has been a fairly slow one... everyone else released minis or singles, so I'll just have to include those to bulk up the list. In no particular order:

    D'espairsRay - MONSTERS

    ムニムニ - Magical Moonies

    BUCK-TICK - ???????

    Lillies and Remains - MERU

    アヲイ - 葵

    ヒトツメ - ??色グランギニョル

    THE SOUND BEE HD - 蜂

    マモノ - 世界魔界化計画

    Creature Creature - Inferno

    That's pretty much all I can think of. If I were to list albums by bands that weren't Japanese, I reckon it'd be much longer.

    Most of his reviews are a damn sight better than any other VK fans or indeed "professional" reviewers on that Jame could write. He posts reviews here, too, and he's the only person not to overrate an album even when he actually likes the band, or say something along the lines "herp it's mediocre, I give it an 8!!" You can trust that if he says something is terrible, it probably is.

    If his sister has a history of mental instability, they'll take that into account.

    That combined with his otherwise spotless record, his sister's previous encounters with the law and the number of witnesses you have should keep him from getting into too much trouble if any.

    They shouldn't be able to keep him without solid proof that he actually did anything anyway. And unless she deliberately made it look as though another person had injured her, a medical professional should notice self-harm. Or is she blaming him for causing her to self-harm?

    Fuck yeah Europe

    Also, I dislike Versailles but I wouldn't say they were particularly overvalued. Although it does irritate me that portions of their fans think because they listen to them, they're suddenly musical geniuses, impressed by two-hour-long solos and couldn't name a better guitarist than Hizaki (or to a lesser extent Teru) if they tried. Perhaps it's the members who are overvalued. Who knows.

    Adagio = neo-classical/progressive metal = thousands of times better than Versailles btw

    If you weren't previously aware, sound does indeed exist in space. Air is "not needed to have sound, only a medium in which compression/rarefaction waves can propagate." NASA are converting charged electromagnetic vibrations from the cosmos into audible sound. Haven't heard the planets "chatting" amongst themselves? Then you are missing out. It's chilling. You might be hearing aliens. :urg:

    Since YouTube videos can't be posted (at least I can't figure out what to change to do so, the post new topic page says flash is off), I'll provide links.

    How Earth sounds from space

    There is a website that has a clip of Saturn and Jupiter "talking" to each other. I've forgotten the link, though.

    On another space-related note, did you know that Europa, Jupiter's moon, is rich enough in oxygen to support millions of tons of fish? In fact, a vast liquid water ocean is believed to reside beneath a crust of ice 100 miles thick. No life has actually been detected there, but it does suggest some places out there could be capable of supporting the kinds of life familiar to us on Earth, if only in microbial form.

    Creepy? Interesting? Interesting. I think so.

    Well, they sort of have to! They use backing tracks for synth/electronics/female vocals/etc and a lot of their songs have multiple layers of guitar (I believe there's about six or seven in Squall) and Karyu can't play several guitars at once, the most I've seen him play simultaneously is two. That and Hizumi's voice trouble last year, I think, is why they use pre-recorded tracks. :U

    This is about the download section.

    How about hiding the download link, and only users who comment on the post could see it? I mean at least the leechers would say thank you.

    Agreed, I appreciated that feature in the previous-previous Tainted World and was sad when it was taken away.
