  1. damn hopefully i can get their "Happy Halloween" live limited single!

    pretty curious whether it'll be a heavy or more of a jazzy song - or maybe a mixture of both hmm...

    none of either their jazzy songs or the heavy ones are bad at all so perhaps a mixture of them both would be extremely ear melting and odd, since not many bands (as far as my poor experience in modern kei recalls) mix jazzy tunes with heavy riffs, the only song that comes to my mind is burst forth by screw...

  3. 欲を壊せたならどれだけ楽
    最大に幸福な余命宣告

    迷いよ消えろ

    消えそうな感情はまだ温かい
    直に血の池 針の山も終わりさ

    I'm Not At The Point Of Death Yet
    No One's Killing Me

    生きていてこそ価値がある
    頼れるものはただ一つ、己の身のみさ
    他人を信じても信じても救われる気がしねぇ
    それが人生の本性だ

    薬を飲み干したら両手は自由
    縛られた不自由にも流れ星

    迷いよ消えろ

    消えそうな感情はまだ温かい
    直に血の池 針の山も終わりさ

    ひとひらの僅かな理想の中で
    毒を零そう

    I'm Not At The Point Of Death Yet
    No One's Killing Me

    -------------------------

    If greed was destroyed how much easier would it be
    We would live much happier

    Without a doubt

    Extinguished emotions would still be warm
    Directly to the bloodstream, needle tips are the end

    I'm Not At The Point Of Death Yet
    No One's Killing Me

    Being alive has a meaning
    You should depend on nothing but your body
    I think that believing and believing in others saves you
    That's life's real nature

    Drinking up the medicine with both my hands as I please
    I'm tied to discomfort as well to a shooting star

    Without a doubt

    extinguished emotions would still be warm
    Directly to the bloodstream, needle tips are the end

    Among pieces of few ideals
    The poison might get spilled

    I'm Not At The Point Of Death Yet
    No One's Killing Me


  4.  

    The Baztan trilogy - Legado en los huesos (Legacy in the bones) by Dolores Redondo (Spain). Actually I finished this one today.

     

    KRAKFLICKEN by Erik Axl Sund (Sweden). And started this one.

     

    I'm a thriller freak, especially if it's psychological thriller.

     

     


  5. Feel free to provide any correction! (the "needle and coupling" stanza still sounds odd to me)

    The song belongs to the mini-album "konsui" and I find it incredibly addictive because its simple composition and touching lyrics, it totally worths a listen.

    Btw, if you want a complex and easy explanation of what Anitya is visit Wikipedia (Tri Laksana)

     

     

    ANITYA (kanji)

     

    夢にうつつ ここは眠れる森
    百の孤独が埋め尽くす闇の中で
    遥か彼方 切り刻まれた記憶
    僕が愛した僕はどこにもいない

    Near-Death Experience Dead Bed
    無常な針と交尾 授かった運命は
    微睡みが誘う 深い深い底へ

    眩い光が解き放たれ失う
    この意識、この世界でばらばらに

    夢にうつつ ここは眠れる森
    百の孤独が埋め尽くす闇の中で
    遥か彼方 切り刻まれた記憶
    僕が愛した僕はどこにもいない

    止まった心にまとわりつく茨
    赤く滲んだまま死んだ様に生きる

    全ては空っぽ 所詮、御伽話さ
    あの景色、あの世界を想うだけ

    夢にうつつ 命は揺らめき
    水の中ずっと溶けるように沈んだまま

    途切れそうな現在を離さず繋いでて
    君のその手で 君の目で 君の声で
    遥か彼方 色鮮やかな記憶
    望み通りに紡がれる幻想の糸

    ANITYA (translation)

     

    Put into trance in the forest

    Where hundreds of solitudes fill the darkness

    Far memories shattered into pieces

    Because what I loved is nowhere to be found

     

    Near death, the uncertain needle and coupling

    Experience, the acquired fate

    Dead bed, an invitation to sleep deeply, deeply at the bottom

     

    The lost, dazzling light is unleashed

    Within the consciousness shards of this world

     

    Put into trance in the forest

    Where hundreds of solitudes fill the darkness

    Far memories shattered into pieces

    Because what I loved is nowhere to be found

     

    Near death, a stopped heart

    Experience, embracing the thorns

    Dead bed, the remains of a blurry life

     

    Everything is hollow, just like a fairy tale

    Such a landscape, uniquely dreamed in that world

     

    Put into trance while the life is swaying

    Sinking into the water while dissolving

     

    The hectic current relieves me

    Those hands of yours, your eyes, your voice

    Far memories brightly coloured

    Longing for the thread of illusions that is spinning


  6. @n00blet:

     

    imo, an oversimplified conception doesnt make something a 100% true, but it doesnt make it a 100% false either.  so if a man walks down the street wearing a night dress (forget about v kei which is simply a japanese fashion, that i adore btw) most people would think he's gay just because an ordinary straight man would not wear a dress,at least, in front of other people. it is not written anywhere, however, that wearing a dress is a gay thing to do but still, most people think going against canons is indeed an 'odd' thing to do.

     

    as for the two types of gay men, it's something i've wondered all my life. from what i could inquire, if u speak to an effeminate gay man he would say he's had a tough life and all that thing so that androginy could possibly be a resultant defence mechanism towards all the 'hate' received (dont ask me how). on the contrary, those who 'you wouldnt tell they are gay' seem to have had a common life so they could be incredibly manly perhaps and, in my case, find it almost shocking once i figure out he's gay (maybe this is because i unconsciously associate gay to effeminate *shrugs*)

     

    anyway this is the conclusion i've arrived, im interested in reading others' opinions though.


  7. i can tell when someone's gay by the way he sustains his gaze at me, and, why not, diverts his eyes to my crotch.

    im not saying this is a rule, because staring to someone doesnt make anybody gay, but it's pretty foolproof. anyway, it's easier for me to tell because i like men as well, and i can "read" lechery like a neon sign hahaha

     

    i think observing something/someone however is unavoidable because we're curious beings, and as such we can't against our nature.

    some weeks ago a straight friend of mine admitted that he uses to observe other men's crotch just to know how well or bad gifted they are (i can assure he's straight, though i see no point in checking anybody's crotch unless, of course, im about to have sex ).

     

     

     

     

     

    ergo, if we're still speaking of this it means we're still culturally regressing. damn, i thought gayness was already removed from the DSM III already!!!
