that face mapping tech is cool as fuck!

Oh mannnn what would I give to see a live ver of this song... They should totally release their last live in dvd, would be so incredible

the crazy rap section of akashic record @ today's studio practice!
 

i'll post them soon. i can't seem to find my copy of yougenkyo 3 but i'll try looking again later..

The only thing that means is that the person now owns the brand "Kuroyume", its iterations and every intelectual property released so far. if Kyoharu and co. would someday do a reunion tour to play the classics, they would need to get its owner permission to act under the name and play said songs; If they ever want to release new shit under the name, they would have to ask permission aswell, and so on. That also means that if the owner wanna get some random musicians and say that's the new Kuroyume and release sugar pop music, it's his call.

You guys are joking, right? I'm no fan of Kisaki by any means, but dude earned some respect with his career, and this lineup is nothing short of STELLAR... would be awesome if we could get a few releases...

They are kinda hit or miss for me, I really like ハナムケノウタ, それでもボクらは今を生きる and ちっぽけなプライド, but couldn't relate to any other song... Satoru's voice has a really emotional tone, it's like he gives a drama flavor to their songs just because he can, I really like that

First single and the first mini SLAYS! I couldn't really find myself interested on the other singles, tho... still waiting on MUZZLE to leak, but it's looking good in the previews! they definitely need more exposure around here

dat preview is kinda lame, to be honest. But tenten is GOD and the rest of the lineup is good, so I'm looking forward

There's no free lunch, guys. The bidding winner is also buying a quite big ammount of million yens in overdue taxes, 100% certain

Generally, there are 3 types of auction of this kind:
 
Something valuable (physical or intelectual, which is the case), is given as guarantee of a loan, leasing or financial operation. If the deal is not honored, the loaner (usually bank institutions) seize that something valuable and auction to reduce their losses. I believe this is the American mortgage model, right? - does not seems to be the case;
 
The owner (let's say Kyoharu) of something valuable has several taxes/loans debts related/attached to this valuable thing. Trying to get rid of this debt, he sells this possession waaaaay below its market value to compensate the debts the new owner will be assuming - also does not seems to be the case, since this kind of auction is generally done by the owner before he is seized;
 
The government ALREADY seized the something valuable that is chock-full of taxes debts, and its auctioning to get some of this money and because it does not have any use to it. It may or may not come clear of past taxes to be paid, that depends. The value is low because that's how govern departments operates, you can check your local DMV for seized cars being auctioned at 60%, 65% below market cost - This seems to be the case, since its already a financial govern department hosting the auction...
 
In any way, Kyoharu is probably fucked, and some major label will probably buy those rights and shell out at least one best album for year till eternity, from now on

I actually find that same thing one of the best things in japanese music overall... Western bands usually releases one album every two, three years, even more. Then go on releasing singles for the songs on that album for quite a long time. Japanese bands do just the opposite. It's good for the fans who will always something new to listen every few months, bands can make a living for that period, and the full album is nothing more than the state the band is now. After that, the cycle starts all over. If they did like the west (Album first, then capitalize on the singles) would be pretty much pointless, since they usually offer a new b-side track, while western bands rarely do so

Multiple versions of CDs with different songs on them irritate me so much. Like, make as many versions as you want with different bonus DVDs or whatever else, I don't really care, but there should always be one version of the album available to buy that has ALL the songs from the release on it. That's all I ask lol. Also, kinda the same thing but putting out Itunes versions of the releases that don't have all the songs on them. Like I'll probably buy something right off the bat from Itunes if it's got all the songs, but if it's missing a song or two I'll likely just pass it up and wait until I have the money for a physical copy with every song. And since currently I'm pretty much just buying digital releases to save some money, that's probably going to be long wait >.<

I can understand his point... It's a shame that bands are barely able to survive in such a unstable and small scene that is vk. You either go big fast or you will forever stay in the same place. FeelsBadMan

Correct me if I'm wrong but Masashi writes that he doesn't see a future (for this band) anymore after 3 years of band activity. He lost his motivation to continue going and doesn't want to give lives without completely enjoying it.
The others didn't mention any reasons just said that it's not due to musical differences and that they are still good friends. So I think it's really because they couldn't gain more fans...

Oh well...
 
1 - I kinda know what this is about, and rules are indeed rules. News section are a section of the forum as any other, so ANYONE could and should post there. While I understand that it's kinda lame for people to manipulate timestamps, use older posts or alter shit just to appear to be the first post and stuff like that, I also think that says much more about the person who did it than it affects the community as a whole. That's why we have mods, I guess. To do what's necessary, even when that means hurting the form in some way;
2 - That being said, people should absolutely NOT dismiss the service @Trombedid for the community all those years. I'm here for I don't know long, and no one will be able to match him/her in news broadcasting EVER. MH is THE frontpage of western VK on the internet, and the news section is one of the big reasons for this. Trombe work was so good and fast that it spoiled us, to be honest. THANK YOU, Trombe;
3 - Him/her/it describing itself as a band is a joke guys, c'mon;
 
Wish you luck, Trombe. maybe bringing up your own news site/tumblr/twitter will provide you the control of the news you think it's necessary, or maybe your're back next week, since we old forum geezers apparently can't stay out for long, as someone said before. In any case, hope to see you again pal. Thanks again! cheers!
