    deadman reacted to Passing Stranger in [Lyrics] DIMLIM - vanitas [English/Romaji/Kanji]   
    Hi, I'm a Japanese student just stopping by to drop some information that might be useful for the translation.
     
    1) If we stretch a bit the meaning of 無意識 and  意識 they might refer to "the state of consciousness/unconsciousness".  This would make some sense since in the previous sentence it is asked "Do you understand (perhaps "know" might work a bit better) that time?" hinting to a time or a state.
    2) In the following stanza, you gave to the sentence an emphasis with that "how" which actually is not present in the Japanese lyrics, in reality it would more like this "my morals/wander without comprehending/ these savage emotions".
    3) In the third stanza I think the first two lines are part of the same sentence as there's a 連用形 conjugation between the two, it could sound like these: "Shutting my eyes to my inexperience/ and scattering the poison  just turns (everything) to shit".
    4) The expression 毒を撒き散らす sounded a bit strange to me, so I decided to look a bit more into it. It is no idiomatic expression, still it sounds oddly familiar to the expression 毒を吐く (lit. "spitting/vomiting poison) which actually means "to reveal one's hate/to speak ill of someone": the expression used in a song might be a way to reinforce to concept that someone not only spit poison, but also scattered it all around (meaning that not only spoke ill of someone, but poured this hate in everything else).
    5) In the fourth stanza you put "I" as the subject, but to me it sounds more like the subject is "those sinful days". Also, the present form in Japanese is more correctly callled "non-past form" as it could refer also to the future---> a possible translation: "Oh, those sinful days/ will exist alongside my rusted past".
    6) In the last stanza you forgot "scary" ---> "Each day's faults are a scary past that cannot be changed".
     
    Sorry for the perhaps too many points, you did a great job in the translation, hope my suggestion might help improving your already great work.
    Cheers!

    This was announced a month or so ago at mixi but I haven't seen a topic here so I figured I'd make on. Phobia will have a one night revival on 5th of July 2019 at Shinjuku ruido k4.

    There's an interview with Sho about the single: https://toppamedia.com/interview-2019-6-dimlim-sho-vo/
     
    I'm sorry I'm too busy to translate, but to sum it up he wrote the song about him growing up with depersonalization disorder which probably developed as a result of being bullied (which was mentioned in an earlier interview)

    deadman reacted to Kabukichoatmidnight in キズ (kizu) New Single 「ヒューマンエラー」 2019.07.02   
    Haha yep, "flat" is an understatement. It just sounds crap, like it was a nice idea they tried but the fact is, 90% aren't listening to their music with the set up they were going for so everyone is just like "wow, well this really sounds shit" haha. I was damn surprised when I first put the disc on, I thought my speakers had screwed up for a minute or something. haha.
     
    It's a shame about not putting out a full album, if Lime is the main song writer then I can kind of understand what he means, but the solution is just to take longer on your work and not just put out 3 tracks every few months. Obviously I know how the Japanese scene works and that they need to keep momentum going and whatever but it IS possible to write a quality full length over time. As the main song writer in my own band, our first release is a full length album (11 songs) which took about a year to compose and even though the label hasn't announced us and the album's not out yet we're working on an EP (5/6 tracks we're thinking) which I have been working on, on and off for another year or so.... The point I'm trying to get at here is that, I personally think if you spend longer to really refine your ideas and stuff, you flesh out the bad/boring/generic ideas and end up with one REALLY solid release where every single part is (hopefully) really cool. I do sometimes wonder how much better a lot of V kei bands would be if they took this approach, obviously I like a lot of V kei bands, so far from saying they're bad (though of course some are....haha) but just have to wonder if instead of pumping (maybe rushing??) out 3/4 songs every couple of months they spent longer to really work on a more lengthy release that was properly refined how it would sound. I mean with my bands stuff, we literally had completed songs that we made adjustments to the week before recording or even during the studio time. haha. Don't rush shit out, take your time and get it right as once that song is recorded there's no going back. Unless you want to keep re-recording it like some bands we know.... hah

    deadman reacted to filth_y in 蘭図 (Rands) 1st single "Leda Atomica -レダ・アトミカ-" release   
    As with their first mini, I don't mind that the riffs/melodies are just recycled/copied 90's material since we can hear it in todays quality/a modern way. It's just so sad to see/hear how the instrumental is so well done and presented/played in the video, the vocals make it nearly unlistenable for me  The mini wasn't as bad as i intially expected vocal wise but with this video it seems like a step back..
    With another vocalist they might've been the freshest (non heavy) act in the scene since 9GOATS BLACK OUT...
