@Pretsy ummmm #breaking_at_12 - finland has hizaki on grocery store cover mag shelves, while north america gets bruce jenner on the "people" cover, and it's heralded as a victory for kweer people representation or something. fyi (2), north america got rid of rock music @ mainstream media almost entirely, and here's the pretsy in his little autist finnish world preaching about explosive cultural relevance of 2005-2006 dir en grey, oh shit. hide yo kids, hide your cultural exports. we have taylor swift, pretsy! taytay will not let obscure japanese bands dominate north american media!

it's a political statement, and they added subtitles not to avoid censors per se, but to give english-proficient expat and japanese business communities a clear idea of where they were going with clever sleazoid -> album era. if you look at other vk and jrock PVs and crews, they's always a number of, I'd say pretty proficient gaijin staff, who essentially report everything they work on to the US embassy, in exchange for being a part of a crew in a language and IT firewalled entertainment industry. this stuff expanded a little bit now that square-enix, or, say, konami and nintendo outsorce a bit of stuff overseas, and hire graphic coders from abroad to work on current gen tech engines, but it all essentially overlaps somewhere. VK industry is a bit more smart and a bit more shielded (how many labels and sub-contract companies does SMEJ have for Dir en grey/FWD bands/PSC/Kisaki projects production and marketing, for example? those are mostly japanese/japanese-korean only managed atm irrc) clever sleazoid was only aired in japan, made it to top-10, and similar in direction different sense PV and vinushka PVs are censored, but also same degree suggestive (medical labs, WWII nuclear pollution, and hentai cross-references.) it's literally a follow up to cage / obscure PVs if you look at their video timeline, uroko is getting somewhere close in a sense they still produce the most artistic stuff for internal japanese consumption, and maybe sell a bit to europe as well. you should also take a careful look @ kyo's back tattoos if you like reading too much into visual kei symbolism. and remember to catch up on history classes as well. ~ north america is barely a relevant or accessible market, but idk if Chinese-dominant territories will let them in again atm.

that's the entire point of that single release, dove. it went with subtitled Japanese PV directly on TV without censoring the pretty disturbing content, and the shitty album remaster was completely on whoever did sound mastering (was that some jealous gaijin pig face metalhead who gave them a flop american distribution deal, or smth?) I remember north american print runs of Deg albums had this consistent trail of SOMETHING SHITTY HAPPENING during production as well. I never made it to the damn 2013 concert because of tour bus something something happening b4 seattle too marrow of the bone is a bullshit album, they literally only recorded it to see how much positive reception a Japanese quality metal band can gather in the us. GRIEF PV was a low-budget joke, it literally looked like they filmed it with a cellphone as a production test for Vinushka later. same with that lol PV for Zan remake, and this sleighing perfecshun

the gods of human rights have spoken, let us dedicate this night to the intricate la sadies slayage appreciation.

I legitimately can not stand most of MOTB, and DSS for that matter. WTD was good.

ngl here for piisu, but slay a lot Danny tbh I think Heidi looks v. friendly

I literally expect them to solely focus on Europe and Asia atm, first gig in Kazakstan after a BELARUS event would be an upgrade already btw #buying_power_lol it all boils down to local politics, and tour management being tangled with. just general disclaimer, I legit loathe russia and america atm, so w/e. bands should make cash, and not suffer lost profits because someone someone thought acting masc was a better selling trope for white potatohead capitalist pigglets, enjoy taylor swift, Japan should support artful high-end tranny music export.

I want Die to murder Kyo's gaybies again and again #mpreg_fanfiction

we all luv talking shit but let's finally discuss important stuff for example what hair do u anticipate most for new tours, since there'd be no LPs in like 2 years for sure

oop @ this fukusuke an cafe cover realness, but I generally like 2/3 of what they record anyway. looking fwd.

yes, you are a capitalist homophobe who wants to cash on Dir en grey management talents, connections, and other interesting deals that Japan offers as a part of global idea of keeping obscure Japanese culture firewalled. jpop doesn't have much global spread either, so w/e, it's a general idea that if it's not spikking Englisa it no good. white girl gay fan fiction is this recent 2 generations Japanese theatre and bushido poetry, speaking in otaku entry-level terms; westernized homophobia is a relatively recent concept there, that arrived with meiji revolution, and established a capitalist scientific progress military state that didn't really last that long past ww2 /r/WhiteHomophobeBully, logout. your current icon really says it all, we got it, you're just a person who likes Dir en grey for their uncanny enchanting musical excellence, and are suffering from the perspiration that soaked their 1997-2003 designers visual kei attire. you have to get my jokes before legal department mention makes sense <3 btw, please either consider last.fm, or reddit for your Dir en grey needs, we're all here to pop some pussay over 2002 Kyo club adventures with bangya in SEA. you...really should not bring this music nerd bullshit onto a visual kei state of art board, I have a brother with private academic musical tutoring, and a lot of music biz friends here and there so this board is still a lot of fun for me for those reasons as well.

sis you're embracing church ideas of typical breeder gendered role-models and instead of promoting Dir en grey for what they were good at (a technically skilled metal band w. a good management team) you are trying to mold them into something commercially appealing for the west, while there is not need to do so, concert tours are not profitable in case with japanese artists. I feel a strong reddit account holder presence from your posts, but w/e. I'm glad you enjoy the music. Shinya hair game is the best thing about them past 2003 anyway. as if their funding and legal departments weren't masc enough for a metal band. w/e.

you're always welcome to skip buying cheki part aren't you?....

did anyone miss 9gbo when they flopped and no members ever returned to the land of relevant visual kei bands? if we get more pscompany quality stuff in return, I'm in here tbh ;________; artkei is real, it just gets better, slay kaya. expecting a year of downtime for ex-moran atm.

it's trendy

I'm so excited!!! they grown into my fav. vk band that spinned off from flawless 2004 ayabie, this is soooo good, and their look is also on point!!

sexting uwe boll lmao, speaking of movies, I thought this thing was dead, but apparently TBA 2017?? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1219827/ http://www.forbes.com/sites/olliebarder/2015/02/17/fans-petition-dreamworks-over-ghost-in-the-shell-movie-casting/ #NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
