I agree with Furik! They've already released UROBOROS and DUM SPIRO SPERO + the singles for that album. They must begin onto their new era now. They can't just stamble on the same ground like they've been for the latest years (all this stuff with UROBOROS Expanded and UROBOROS extra live shows etc. I hope they deliver a ballad or something like "DOZING GREEN", but still a brand new song! But I guess they're not finished with DUM SPIRO SPERO yet. Will probably just be another "DIABOLOS".

A lot of cover compilation albums coming out lately with almost the same album title.. I'm getting confused!

Bad news!! (

Yes, that's true, I actually edited this into YOHIO's Last.fm wiki (see version 1 in biography there) but he apparently didn't like that, so he contacted a moderator on Last.fm and that guy removed his birth name from the wiki. He didn't want people to find out that he's name actually is Kevin Rehn Eires. Didn't be forget that being an artist won't allowing to have a private life? Btw, I listened to their album (samples though) from Japanese iTunes Store (since it's released there now) and the album is actually quite good!! One of the songs "SIREN (Falling Down)" is actually written by well-known Fredrik Kempe (composer of Eric Saade "Popular" and "Manboy", and Charlotte Perrelli "Hero" for those of you who like Eurovision Song Contest) together with YOHIO and Alexander Jonsson. Also, their album (and EP "Seasons will change) are produced, mixed and recorded by well-known Patrik Frisk (founder of Ninetone Records). No wonder they got oppertunity to produce a solid album! Also, all songs are more or less written by YOHIO. If you guys want to listen to the album already now: http://itunes.apple.com/jp/album/welcom ... 16077?l=en Must admit I enjoyed the Japanese version of "Déjà Vu" a lot!!!

i think those are seconds and they roughly translate to 20 days... Yes I know, I was gonna write 179 HOURS dunno why I wrote days :S

Must be a new single (or album), because they have recorded songs this year... Take a look at the background pictures at the countdown page, it's full of "in studio"-photos so perhaps it's their new album. I mean because the countdown will end in ~179 hous?

Lyrics & Music composion is revealed in the ISWC-code for each song. Try search for the songs in a Japanese ISWC database, for example JASRAC (http://www2.jasrac.or.jp/eJwid/) or similar and you'll find information about the composion.

Latest news is still that FWD have reported him missing to the Police department. They also want people to send them an e-mail to [email protected] if they have important information about his disappearance etc.

It seems that they won't have a bassist replacement since the tourname was changed into something like "tourname blablalbalba ~Searching for Bansaku~" But something strange is definitely going on, I mean they've even reported him missing to the police office so I guess this is something serious. Of course he will show up sooner or later, but I wonder if it's dead or alive?

They've just added ～ばんさくをさがせ～ which means ~ "searching for bansaku"

Today, it was reported that baroque bassist Bansaku is missing, nobody has heard of him since June 24 afternoon. They have reported him missing to the police. Today on June 26, their new tour will be starting but since Bansaku is missing they've changed the tourname from the original one to TOURバロック現象 第3現象 激しいライブハウスツアー ～ばんさくをさがせ～ http://pigmy.jp/bansaku.html

In case you didn't see, but the flyer you uploaded says: Regular Edition 1. METEOR 2. Dearest 3. LOUD UP GENERATION Limited A 1. METEOR 2. Dearest DVD: PV「METEOR」 Limited B 1. METEOR 2. Dearest DVD: PV「METEOR」メイキング・インタビュー映像

Finally the tracklist is revealed! LOL the fact that both two CD's on Limited Edition are actually the regular CD but divided into two discs with some bonus tracks. (which actually describes the album title DIVISION pretty good) Now all we have to get is the cover artworks which most likely will be cool as hell Btw, I added the transcritions for the tracklist: Regular Edition 1. [XI] 2. GABRIEL ON THE GALLOWS 3. DERANGEMENT 4. DRIPPING INSANITY 5. 余韻 (Yoin) 6. 歪 (Ibitsu) 7. 影踏み (Kagefumi) 8. 籠の蛹 (Kago no sanagi) 9. ヘドロ (Hedoro) 10. ATTITUDE 11. REQUIRED MALFUNCTION 12. [MELT] Limited Edition DISC 1 1. [DEPTH] (only in limited edition) 2. 歪 (Ibitsu) 3. 籠の蛹 (Kago no sanagi) 4. ヘドロ (Hedoro) 5. 影踏み (Kagefumi) 6. 余韻 (Yoin) 7. [DIPLOSOMIA] (only in limited edition) DISC 2 1. [XI] 2. DERANGEMENT 3. REQUIRED MALFUNCTION 4. DRIPPING INSANITY 5. ATTITUDE 6. GABRIEL ON THE GALLOWS 7. [MELT]

Did somebody else but me hear that that song was actually MUCC - FUZZ? Btw, it sounds like this is gonna be another terrible single

Good news!

Full PV for "Iris" is now avaliable on YouTube since 1 June 2012: JjedA8tCSS4

One song is entitled "DIPLOSOMIA"? This was taken by RUKI on his twitter: http://lockerz.com/s/209588926

http://news.yahoo.com/video/oddnews-227 ... 58227.html Yeah, but he indeed mentioned that "Seremedy is a visual kei band getting very popular" and said "YOHIO is a Japanese rock star" haha.. Btw, there will be a European edition of "Welcome to our MADNESS".

According to CDJapan the transcription should be NATSUKAZE～endless love～

Looking forward to hear it, because 'Aisuru hito' was amazing.

I posted it here because of they're doing major debut on Universal Music Japan and the album is Japanese, but move it if you want ;P THIS! If they actually were a decent band, they should get rid of that crappy singer long time ago... He is so ruining the whole band.

Seremedy (Swedish visual rock band with YOHIO on guitar) will do major debut and release 1st full album "Welcome to our MADNESS" (UICN-1012, Universal Music Japan) on 2012/7/25. Tracklist: 1. Welcome to our MADNESS -Intro- 2. NO ESCAPE 3. Déjà Vu 4. SIREN (Falling Down) 5. WORLD DOMINATION 6. Always By Your Side 7. RICOCHET 8. Torygan 9. SHIVERING 10. Yellow flash, dancing light 11. Bulletproof Roulette 12. closure

So this is just a compilation album?

Yes, it's the one! For this USTEAM it looks like they've added English subtitles to it.
