You can already view some full songs from it on Youtube (putting it behind a spoiler tag cuz it's a lot of videos). They might not start if you play them here, but if you click on the YT titles and open them on YT they should work.
 
 

 
....Okay, I admit I just made this thread cuz it's pretty killer both Atsushi and Mukai are collabing with her.  

the bigger question is that.....marder suitcase is still running??

Riku has announced that he has joined marder suitcase and will commence solo activities from 4.22
 
 

Yep this is what I want, nihilism eating sunflower seeds off the floor in your underwear while the neighbors watch-kei

ex-Wizard guitarist ますみ (Masumi) has been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer.

Monochrome Heaven's 2019 Banner Contest
 
Hey everyone! This is a shout out to all digital artists on the website interested in content creation. It's about time to add some new bands into the rotating banner at the top of the forum, and for that we can use your skills! What better way to show off some skills than in a friendly competition? Here's the basic idea:
 
Create a banner according to the rules which I will define in a moment. Respond to this topic by submitting your banner in a post. Since you cannot edit your post after you submit it, make sure your post is the way you want it before posting. You can submit as many banners as you have time / energy to create. The second phase of the banner contest will be anonymous voting from the community. The top three voted banners will be added to the top and the members who created those banners will be announced then. Winners of the contest will get their screen name in a special color in addition to having their work featured at the top of the forum! Rules:
 
Banner should have dimensions of 800x120. Banner should have a thin, rounded white outline. Banner should preferably be a PNG, but a GIF is acceptable if you are interested in making an animated banner. Banner should in some way relate to Japanese music. Normally, we feature a band at the top, but there is room for creativity. Banner should have the text "Monochrome Heaven" on it. Banner should contain material that is Safe For Work. NSFW banners will be automatically disqualified. Banner submission should remain anonymous until the end for fairness. All banners will be shown at the end. Banners can contain anything else you think will give you an edge in the competition.  
The submission deadline will be open for four weeks, or until May 18th, 2019.
 
 Have fun! I'm excited to see what our members can come up with.  
 
 
 
 

I misread track 3 as cuck in the dark and got unreasonably excited tbh

My babiesss

I wish they'd come up with a fresh idea for once. Their post-reunion stuff is just one big lazy, derivative, self-referential snoozefest. But every time they announce something new, there's this tiny bit of hope that it might not suck or put me to sleep.

Oh yeah, uploaded the newest MV + Episode of XXXX to my Youtube channel! 
(Hopefully they will stay without getting taken down)
Translation help would also be highly appreciated
 
 
 

Asty will release their third single titled 『もふもふラビット』(Mofu mofu rabbit). They will hold a mini one man live on 2019.05.15 and also have their second one man at Tsutaya O-West on 2020.01.03. They will also produce an MV for 「かごめ唄」(Kagome Uta).
 
 

They will perform at Shibuya WWW on 2019.09.18 for their second anniversary. Also, they will be holding a one coin, one man tour to commemorate their second year anniversary as a band.

They are in a dire need of a hiatus, for a year, at least, because this is getting worse and worse. The new Youtuber bullshit is just a cherry on top of all that trashpile. It feels like BPR wants to milk out every last yen, 'til Mahiro actually goes blind.

Yeah for me if I want to listen to something profound or whatever, surely I won't find it here lol, but I still love them (except those handful of radio sounding songs.) They are perfect for what I listen to chaotic music for, but they only fill that specific niche like Igorrr. I only listen to お邪魔します casually outside of physical activity or art time.
Sometimes you gotta enjoy the Face/Off's of music...I say this not really being able to listen to pop music at all, and everyone has their own taste, but you get what I mean maybe. 😺

I really like Mamireta but I also think that their music isn't high quality or particularly interesting.  Their compositions are very simple, Batsu isn't the greatest singer, I think a lot of their songs follow the same format and end up sounding like nothing new.  People have the right to dislike them or complain about their newer releases.  But at the same time I think their music is fun and energetic so I keep enjoying it, and it doesn't seem like they have any deeper reasons for being a band anyway so I don't mind anything they do

At this point they have enough singles to fill up an album with nothing but them, so I lowkey hope they don't include any or just release a best-of instead idk.

look look look (*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)
