    Tbh, all the people who virtue signaled Hide's death day, when they never even knew about him when he was actually alive.  That always bugged the crap out of me.

     

    Every VK fan that ever said about any band "they need to put out something harder" or "this is too poppy"

     

    "I don't like x-band anymore bc Tanuki revealed their manwhore tendencies" and related: "x-vkbandoman can't possibly be a manwhore bc he looks too innocent"

     

    Any VK fan that freaks out when someone else says their favorite band sucks.

     

    Extremely pretentious reviews of VK albums.

     

    VK fans who call VK Jrock when they most definitely 100% mean VK bc they don't actually listen to any other Japanese rock.

     

    Any band  said to be copying Dir en grey.  If I could roll my eyes any harder at this, they'd be in the back of my head by now.

     

    Ok this turned out to be less "shit new vk fans say" and more, this is the ridiculous shit I've heard from VK fans over the years.

    Probably Hazuki from Lynch too.  There's some newer singers I like, but they haven't really been around long enough for me to call them a ~fave~ so to speak.

    ↑ People always ignore Chinese music, that makes me salty in general. 

     

    And ugh I loooooathe Big Bang. I have nfi why they're so popular, but then again I never have understood why Diru and Gazette are the mainstays of VK either so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I've personally known quite a few people who listened almost exclusively to VK out of Japanese music and then went to listening exclusively to Kpop, or some combination.   I think those are the ones I draw certain conclusions about lol, and the reason behind this thread.  But if Kpop and/or VK is just part of your musical palate, whatever, it doesn't matter it's all music.

     

    I'm less into Kpop than other types of pop (still like more Chinese and Japanese pop) mostly bc I think the girl pop from Korea is awful in comparison.  Also, the more current groups within the last few years have been a lot more appealing musically to me than the ones in the 00s-12 time period.  I also still like current VK, but I listen to way more indie and mainstream Japanese rock than VK in general.  And I probably listen to more Korean and Japanese rap than pop for the most part too lol.

     

    As for visuals...I personally don't really engage with music much aside from listening to it, so I don't watch many PVs or anything like that.

    actually trying to fish ten current bands out of my pile was pretty hard lol, most of my top VK bands are either no longer VK, disbanded or on hiatus. =/

     

    and i can't believe how long vistlip and daizystripper have been around lol

    Definitely the Shadow overall, but bits of Expat, Hoarder and Historian sprinkled in there too lol.  But many people have told me that they can't predict my music taste or what I'll like at any given time. x)  Or, depending on what they like, they'll be surprised that I listen to x-popular band or x-very obscure band.

    I used to get really annoyed at bad, stupid or cheesy lyrics in songs so once I found music not in English, I never looked back lol.  Even though I do understand some Japanese, Korean and Chinese, it's not enough to put together a complex meaning in the space of a song and v.easy to not even think about.  I just prefer music to be sounds I don't have to think about, Idk. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
