CAT5

Back with just one this time

^Yeah, I've liked most of the tracks I've heard from them, so I'm sure the albums are worth a listen. I checked out their latest video the other day and thought it sounded really good, just never got around to a full release for whatever reason. I think I even had DEEPER downloaded on my old computer around when it came out because I liked One Me Two Hearts and Talkie Dance so much, just never seemed to remember when I had time.

RIP. Never got around to listening to a full release from hitorie, but I've always really loved this song and video.
 
 

I enjoyed this a lot. Given it was the least promising of the previews for me, my expectations for the EP are at an all-time high.

it's a yuge imrpovement over samples for sure
 
the video tho.... the sheer "12012 2nd major single PV" vibe of it all... the 1/3 average melvel video budget.... this is noT how you promote scene veterans like them like tf

Hey guys,
My name is Teresa, I've been here since the Tainted World forum but at that time I wasn't fluent in english
 
I used to come to the forum for the downloads forum and for the market, but never had the guts to buy anything lol
 
Thank you for having me, and I am glad the forum is still here after all this time
❤️
 
 

For me, it's Zero Time Dilemma from the Zero Escape series. As per usual with Spike Chunsoft, the concept was fantastic; three people each in three separate wards who are not allowed to directly communicate with each other outside of their respective wards have to escape using X-Passes that can only be obtained after someone dies. Sign me up! Not to mention the character designs were great in that you could tell what they'd be about just by looking at them, which is always good in character design. For example, Akane was sweet and feminine. Mira was the sexy bad girl. Phi was sharp. So, you're probably wondering what the hell ruined this for me. A compelling plotline and a fairly small yet diverse and interesting cast? What could possibly go wrong?
Well... I lied a little. The cast really weren't all that interesting for me. The character designer clearly knew what they were doing, but the writer did not. I just felt like the delivery of all their lines/actions was very flat, and how I confirmed this was by taking some lines from some of the characters and giving them to another and I found it had exactly the same effect. They just felt copy-pasted with a few variations here and there, and it really ruined the experience for me. The characters are important, after all! Anyways, what do you think had wasted potential? It could be a video game, anime, TV series, book, music artist, whatever.

I wish I discovered this community when I first came across visual kei music about 8-9 years ago  but damn this place going on 12 years is incredible to hear 

oh wow 10 years already, congratulations!!
 
I was browsing through my old livejournal entries a while ago and several of them were dedicated to TW haha, I was only a teenager when I first joined and I met lots of amazing people and discovered tons of good bands and music 
(even if all I did was create game threads in the spam section like rate the avatar above you or say something about the previous person lmao I still had lots of fun)
 
here's to more years! 

HITORIE was one of my favorite bands, and wowaka was a brilliant musician. My heart goes out to all of his family, friends, and fellow fans.
 
 

Wow. Horrible. Hoping the best for his friends and family.

That is an awfully young age...rest in peace.

Rest in peace I hope those who were close to him cope well with this.

I fondly remember listening to the vocaloid songs Wowaka made. May he rest in peace...

Oh my God... that's terrible... I listened to Howls some day ago... R.I.P.

Super bummed about this. That's way too fucking young. RIP 😞

ヒトリエ (Hitorie) frontman wowaka has passed away April 5th due to sudden heart failure. He was 31. A funeral has already been performed, but only for relatives and friends. Their tour has been cancelled and future band activities are undecided.

Well, in my case, I think that zeitgeist is just a little little higher in my ranking than ANGELS. And certainly that what makes the difference between those two is that zeitgeist was the first album that I listen from them. (And the main topic of zeitgeist attracts me a lot too)
 
Otherwise, it's interesting to note that on RateYourMusic, the albums ranking is the chronological order. (With the exception that Misstopia is better ranked than To (melt into)) So yeah, Hallelujah is second behind ANGELS. It's great to see that ANGELS is doing a great start on the site, already the best rating and the 2nd with the most ratings in just over a week. (The album downgrade a lot now ahah)

Also the novembers started following me on IG so i guess IM KINDA A BIG DEAL lmao jk jk
