nekkichi reacted to z.ghart in ClearVeil revival in 2021?
I'm one of those few guys who don't put equality between Darrell and Deathgaze. I mean I love Darrell so much(and last cd with covers as well), but that old lineup will always have a very special place in my heart.
If they will follow 12012 way and someday reunite with bringing both Takaki and Naoto(gt.) back that must be one of the coolest things ever.

It's hard to tell.
Their OHP is like... dead or not working but their last Twitter post was in August.
Their official merch site is still up and running.
They're supposedly doing two shows in Shibuya in January.
As much as this band gets shitted on, I really hope they continue to be active. Unpopular opinion but I really enjoyed MISC.

nekkichi reacted to nick in Dir en grey
WTF is this!?
Someone has been pretending to be Kyo for three years and cheated 54m JPY from a woman's family. He even tricks his mom that he is Kyo for 10 years buying DIR EN GREY concert tickets for her to watch "her son" perform.

idk I hate most of vk retakes, they consistently bring nothing worth of quality, but this might the only exception to the rule where I'm 100 % on board with the upgrade:

Re-recordings are a mixed bag. Some of them are great, some of them are dog shit!
I think the only band who has hit it out of the park with re-recordings is and cali≠gari (not counting the TURN minis, those are... a different realm). The complete re-recordings of 10 and Bluefilm are far superior to the originals, as is マグロ 2017. lynch. and girugamesh have also done very well with their re-recordings (although for lynch., their album version re-recordings were not very good, like JUDGEMENT and ADORE).
Everyone else (I can think of) has been mixed...
MUCC did fantastic with 新痛絶 and 新葬ラ謳; some of the songs were better than the originals, though there were a few others that were sub-par. On the other hand, their other re-recording album, the one that shamelessly appropriated BUCK-TICK's 殺シノ調ベ, was dog shit.
My problem with a lot of re-recordings isn't so much the vocals, it's that the guitars are severely lacking and just sound weaker IMO, like on DIAURA's INCOMPLETE, グリーヴァ's re-recording mini (they should have just released the full demo of Bondage, I will never forgive them for not doing that), and a lot of SUICIDE ALI's re-recs. I'm not a recording engineer and I do not play guitar, so I'm not really sure how I can explain this better. Although there are definitely some re-recordings where everyone does a piss poor job all around.
Rant time: the GazettE's TRACES VOL. 2 is an exhibit to present in these arguments: talent ≠ intelligence; the GazettE are some of the stupidest fucking people in music; bands should stop self-producing their albums unless they're Converge. Production-wise alone, it could have sounded better, but it didn't, because they wasted production money on special instruments and completely forgot that garbage-in is garbage-out, and because they were monitoring it with fucking EarPods and probably laptop speakers as well.
I guess if your band name is all lowercase, you're more likely to make great re-recordings :thonk:
