If you mean it because of the shitty midi then yes, hahaha.

Schwarz Stein's is actually way better:

Woah, it's great to see a western musician joining a japanese band !

 

I AM POSSIBLY MORE EXCITED FOR THIS THAN ANYTHING IN THE PAST 5 YEARS.

Same.

bis is my favorite band of all time, I agree that their style is kiiinda similar (I have a little surprise for you fellow bis fans, as soon as I receive my order from rarezhut =P). I would also add to the list Sug Life-era baroque.

 

The way xTRiPx infuses the electronic sound, and the "rawness" of their sound is not matched today at all. In my opinion,Tokyo Shitei was a try-harder, LM.C is way too silly/kawaii, I really don't see any similarities between them. But I totally agree that good generic is not a problem. (the only one I think stands out from DIV is Shogo, everybody else is normal good, which makes them a normal good band).

 

I guess in the end is just a matter of taste, as you said. I think that they are all extremely talented (in a way few VK artists are, Ena in particular), and their sound is tight as shit. I really can't find anything to complain about them.

I agree with everything you wrote, but baroque is an exception. Unlike all of those previously mentioned bands they did some really innovative stuff and even "created a new genre", which is discussable, but I think baroque is in a higher level compared to all those others bands mentioned before.

And yes, bis is fucking dope, actually. Can't wait for the surprise.

At least they're giving us this present >: I hope someone shares it.

Try bands like bis, porori, old Irokui, Tokyo Shitei... Even LM.C does that. That's why I don't really see any difference in xTRiPx. Same for DIV. I do agree they are way better than most bands nowadays, but they are not innovative, avant-garde or aything like that to me. They're just generic. Good, but generic.Not that it's a bad thing, you know ? I think it's better to be generic than trying to be extremely different and doing a bad job.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I think VK itself is experimental and there are many other bands which sucessfully fuse other genres to their music, but I get your point. You just think they do it better. It's a matter of taste, in fact.

Don't get me wrong since I actually do like them. But just a question, out of curiosity: Why is this band so overrated among non-japanese VK fans ? They always sounded like generic VK to me. I know it's a matter of taste, but I don't really get why people always freak out when they see anything about this band.

I love them and all, but those aluminum paper googles are pathetic. The PV itself/music is pretty good, though.

LOL @ the dude with a motorcycle helmet.

I couldn't care less about this band, but I'll give them a try, because of IZAM.

Indeed. The PV for "It's Just Love" was the best VK PV I've seen last year, though. Probs, they've spent a lot on that and didn't have much money for this one.

Gorgeous. This song reminds me a lot of Aicle, which is awesome, since I miss them and I wouldn't mind some other bands copying them.

Sweet. And I'm still dying to watch their latest PV >:

I don't even care for this band, but a CD only with SEs ? Srsly ? I can't believe people will actually buy it. Nobody gives a fuck about SEs. They've got to be kidding.

This new look is gorgeous and the sample is pretty good. Looking forward to it.

AHAHAHAHA. This is the best thing ever posted in this forum.

w8, wut !?

I didn't even know video glamour changed its name. So they're not VK anymore ?

LOL.

Basically, that wasn't really difficult to download the song, but they made it a little tricky, especially if you can't understand Japanese.

Anyway, the direct link to the song is http://d.frekul.com/mp3/?i=06473f3f2d6695d9b63d59d46207c778.mp3 Just left-click on this link, and save the mp3 file. Let me know if this work for you too, if you still can't i will upload to depositfile or something, but i think it should work, as this is the original link where i downloaded the mp3 from their website.

Works for me. Thanks.

That shitty website won't let me download it. Can someone please upload the song here ?

how do you pronounce their name again??

ZERO HACHI.

There goes the best visualcore band evah </3

Double post, but who cares ? Here you can actually hear a sample of what's to come:

Pretty fucking fabusome, if you ask me.

Woah, INZARGI singing with Marty Friedman ! I can't even imagine him singing in a Death Metal band, but anyways, this band will be providing OST for some RPG game called "KRITIKA"
