Honestly, as someone who lived through their "try hard to be metal"-era, but also old enough to remember what came before, I'm thrilled with every new look they give us these days. So glad they decided to get visually relevant again.

Didn't someone quote some interview earlier stating they hadn't even finalized the track list until like June orJuly? 
Maybe they just legit didn't have time to put more teasers or samples together...

I watched 5 Ugly Kingdom, Code of VULGAR[ism], and UROBOROS -proof...- while waiting.

Kyo may be onto something here. Monk Kei-Skinhead is the next level of VK to achieve

Hopefully that's a more thematic decision than a running-out-of-content decision... I want Demo #3 and #4!

This is seriously good though. My only question is if this will top the first mini in terms of enjoyment? I think that was my most played CD of 2016.

I'm very much looking forward to this

THIS IS KASUMI PART 2 AND I AM LIVING FOR IT. 

If true, Shinya essentially saved dir en grey. 💋

Yep, more of those silly ass song comparisons comin' at ya --
 
"Mushigoe" is literally System of a Down's "Chop Suey", and "B.Y.O.B.", just with 8 strings.
 
It's kinda ridiculous how they managed to get away with all of that very blatant riff lifting...I know from previous experience with VK, that most bands have borrowed some riffs and and a bunch of bands just straight up take songs note for note.

I really hate this, but it's true. "Delta" is literally a drop E cover of "Headache Man" (the GazettE).

Girl if you prove this to be true, all the weaves in visual kei will literally fly off.

Well, I mean, 1999 was almost 20 years ago. Also, DEG was playing different music back then.  

And album is named "The Insulated World". Is this some kind of a theme for this album?

tbh sukekiyo are objectively more sophisticated in composition, instrumentation, arrangement etc
 
 

Secretly hoping this too, fam.
 
However, i dunno if our Queens can still slay. Been a point of contention here at home.

I suspect Kyo has gone full Maynard James Keenan and loves his side project more than his main band. 

Maybe this album will be Vulgar 2.0 😏

Though I am not the least experience when it comes to Everlasting-k, Khaos Number has a Youtube channel where many trailers of aki's works are uploaded. I recommend the recent releases over the earlier ones. I don't know if it is just me or if the trailers really are boring compared to the whole songs. There is indeed one whole song there but it is a live recording. If you find anything interesting enough, you can buy it on Zoisite's shop, which was the only place I could find.

Can any one direct me toeards Everlasting-K and Aki's solo stuff? I used to have Conflict/Live into Conflict, but lost them due to storage crashing.

The studs seemed like typical Nagoya stuff for the most part (or typical aie stuff I should say), but it was Daisuke’s wildly incongruous voice that kept the band from being truly great in my eyes. 
 
That and I feel like alansmithee was mostly forgettable.
