Peace Heavy mk II

It has come to my attention that I have nothing left to share with this board. While most people leave quietly unless they aim to make their departure a publicity stunt, I feel that saying goodbye to a forum where I've more or less spent every day for the past 10 years is the least I could do. I've made a lot of good friends here, had fun as a mod for like 15 minutes, and loved being an official reviewer. In spite of all of that, I cannot help but feel it is time I move on. I do not plan on fully deleting my account so I can still leech, but if you'd like to chat about music you can find me: -On Twitter -On the VKGY discord -Adding scans and lyrics to ZombiexJuice -Making half-assed unboxing videos of rejected vkei maxi-singles It's been fun 💋

D is a bad band name because when I want to shit on their Return To Worldland nonsense album I can't even sensor their name like "V*rs**lles" ...it'd just be "*" How will you know who I'm talking about? M? S? A? You can't! Awful

They're on the same label and probably just never made an official store for a label that's had one artist for the longest time 🤷‍♂️

In spite of the controversy, this CD appears to be part of some sort of livehouse relief series, probably to keep them afloat while they haven't been able to host events. Rock May Kan's tweet is worded like they will have other releases from different artists like this to follow.

keep it

Smaller update this time, but I also had a bunch of flyers edited and scanned that have been added to vkgy.

Nah, he's Italian and still doing stuff with glamscure. Different dude

I'm a night shower-er, but my partner is a morning one. I also will take one if doing something that's physically intensive (the gym, gardening, swimming, intense cleaning; anything that works up a sweat or is grimy), but I don't like to shower multiple times a day because eczema hurts

Super fun!

It's on Spotify as well, although better quality doesn't make the album much better :x https://open.spotify.com/album/1sy2BIEq6fROTkBjoP4H0n?si=F_ghAe_rS2uZsUm1exRCnQ

At least they admit to being influenced by sl*p kn*t where most bands would be like "Oh....this sounds like them? That's so weird aha 👀" Also, I didn't realize NeiN were so nu-metal-y? I thought the singles I heard from them in the past were lighter, but I could be misremembering them with the other band Shun is in (Quiet Rain?).

Chisato being in a snowboard game seems very on brand

They kind of sound like a lighter Verxina. Hopefully their 6/20 oneman doesn't get cancelled like their 5/17 show. It must suck to want to get started with activities but then having to constantly postpone them.

Calatorie will be releasing an additional single on May 18th that's considered an extension of his 12-month release campaign. "LAST STAR SIGN (ラストスターサイン)" is themed after 2000's Koteosa-kei. Additionally, singles 9-12 are now available in physical medium.

Their last few singles have actually been kinda good, so cautiously optimistic about this.

Sounds like a return to Sequence Records-era Hizaki writing, which is neat to hear. Hopefully he's able to get this demos remastered, polished, and rereleased in the future.

Ah, that makes more sense. It's very vkei to just remaster your stuff and resell it so that's why I assumed the worst lmao They told you not to buy their stuff????

So that's...only one new song and an intro SE? Yikes
