They just posted a new tweet, can anyone please translate this?ん申し訳ございませんが、ニュウアルバム「11」は"占い"の結果により、2011年11月には"売らない"ことになりました。代わりと言ってはなんですが、11月ニュウシングル「#_2」コミングソーーーン!明日へつづく。They seem to be talking about some sort of new single called #_2, also in November. Or only single, no album?
Due to some "divination" thing that says they won't sell well if they release it in November, they will release a new single instead.

Are you guys sure about Hikaru's talent?
I saw piecelang a couple of times and most of his parts were lipsynced.
-
they just needed a band name that sucked as much as the music.
-
haha awsome zero on bass! It's not like he is doing anything after D'espairsRay disbandedAnd Hizaki on guitar wauw. But my oppinion even though it's awsome is that it is kinda weird that Hizaki plays the music Gackt writes.
The songs of Gackt are awsome and I m a big fan. But the music is kinda easy compared with Versailles haha. Hizaki may get bored haha.
But still Awsome
It's just a one song TV performance, nothing serious
Also Gackt didn't write his own single this time lol
-
The new single is charity self-produced and sold at their indies stuff webshop only, so it's definately God Child Records.
Also their sales have been very disappointing recently so I'm not surprised they kicked them out/they left.
-
Good. TBH I never expected Kisaki to release a full album.
-
And yeah, I don't get this GB hype as well - what's so special in them? If I am permitted to ask thatnothing. 15 year olds think their tacky as fuck gimmicks are funny, and their indie status appeals to indievk-dogmatists.
-
I rarely listen to their music, but their live sets are usually a lot of fun.
-
they had a shoxx single release but it was cancelled. So I guess they disbanded that way
-
And yes, there are alot of japanese people who don't know names such as BUCK-TICK, X, LUNA SEA & DIR EN GREY.I find that quite hard to believe actually! But if you say so... it could be true. Never been in Japan myself.
To me this sounds like a British person who doesn't know who The Rolling Stones are. Even if you're not into rock music, not knowing some of the biggest names in your country is pretty... odd. You must've heard of them sometime.
I think pretty much every average Japanese older than 20 has heard of LUNA SEA, Gackt and X JAPAN. Dir en grey are more known among younger people. Buck-tick had some hits in the past but most people find it difficult to remember them *laughs*
-
Pretty much everyone in Japan knows what is visual kei, but most people don't know any band or have just heard the name of some major bands (mostly Gazette or Alice Nine). Gackt, Luna Sea and X Japan of course are still known by losts of people but they don't get much media exposure anymore as they are considered out of fashion or justic nostalgic now.
Most major bands don't sell that much and still play in smaller venues, so I don't think their Japanese fanbase is THAT bigger than overseas maybe..
-
In the pamphlet they distributed at the Japanese gigs it's written in broken english that they are slowly working on new stuff, so I don't think they disbanded but just keep low profile.
-
Zephyr actually regrouped some years ago and were recording a new album, but the vocalist is sick and can't continue (if I remember correctly). They also have an official site up somewhere...
-
I have an acquaintance who worked with the band on their US tour -- and apparently the band has owed some serious money to their management because of the failure of their US tour. This has brought some to question the inner workings of the band. I've always found this whole situation interesting -- but it could be nothing but conspiracy theory. Who knows.Probably bullshit. If the tour was a failure then the promoters/organizers that brought them overseas would lose money, not the band itself or their management, I think. They get an amount of money from those people to perform there so failure or not they simply can't lose money in any way.
-
It was announced at the Aliene Ma'riage gig that details on the band will be out on June 20th.
-
He can't be on stage so they figured out a way he could meet fans at the concerts. Also they are definately going to sell more goods this way lol
-
I've seen Metis Gretel about four or five times in the past and they never played Fairy tale so I guess it isn't one of their most loved tracks xD
-
Lol MH. I remember cocklobin being praised because their music was cool before, now all I read is Nigu is fat. And he's nowhere near fat. It gets old after a few posts you know.ANYWAY, PV preview is boring but song is decent. Nigu still has a good voice.
IRL he's seriously fat. Not that it is a problem anyway..
The biggest disappointment was him not being able to sing live and lip-synched parts...
-
Why is everyone always so hyped about remastering stuff? That wouldn't change ANYTHING on the songs lol Especially if it's a remaster of a 2-months old song..

(unless you meant re-recording of course)
-

Also she will perform live at Takadanobaba AREA on July 7th
Before that she has been invited by Mana to perform at his birthday event, but she eventually turned down the offer.
-
Digest of the secret live? Wasn't it cancelled before finishing the first song? lol
-
I went to tons of metal gigs in my life but none of them had fans as rude (and sometimes even dirty) as jrock fans in EU
-
Most bands: no money and no fans, or at least not enough.
Some popular bands: bitchfights and/or management/record label issues.

Vsoku states Jui is gonna have a solo debut album on April 20th so this is definately unelated to his health problems.
Also Crown records calling him "the second Gackt"...lol
Vo.樹威(Jui)(ex-Vidoll) has departed from Sword Records
in News

The album sales were really poor so I guess Sword Records and Jui ddn't make a very good team.
