09. Music type you find yourself listening to most? Punkish rock, post-hardcore and folk

22. Last song that you heard on the radio/CD…etc…? Don't remember
23. What do you think of Classical music? Like with any "genre", there's stuff I like and stuff I don't. Not something I actively listen to however, since it's too pretty.
24. What do you think of Country music? Like some due to too much exposure, but not the poppy modern kind.
25. What do you think of Death metal? I've come by stuff I like, but Black metal is where it's at.
26. What do you think of Visual Kei? Collectively it's shit, but if the music comes first and the visuals back it up, it can be very cool.

41. What genre could you never listen to? Dance pop makes me sick
42. What language do you listen to the most in music? Japanese
43. Do you like long songs? I don't pay attention to the length unless I get bored half-way and that's not due to the length, it's due to the song not being good enough. So yes.

I'm interested in your mix too, CAT5!
-
You can see the crazy kitty bigger and better on the album page, put it as your wallpaper, get comfy with it etc.
-
inb4 omg they vk againWell, now that you mention it...
No, actually I'm glad that they seem to be back to making/being whatever they like instead of trying hard to distance themselves from anything make-up related, which felt like the case for a while.
-
Well I believe AMON (Symphonic ver.) already counts as a remix right?No. If it's a separate recording then it's not a remix. Remix is when you use the same tracks to make a new mix.

People's reading comprehension skills, as in lack there of, never cease to amaze me. Go read the post again, guys. It's on the previous page.

^What? The regular edition cover is a Katan doll as well.
アルバム『Beautiful Freaks』の世界観をさらに広げ、深いものにするアートワークとして天野可淡の作品
"KATAN DOLL"の写真を初回生産限定盤A、
通常盤のジャケット等に使用。
So with the regular there is an exclusive picture of KATAN DOLL ?
No, it just says the covers of Limited type A and regular edition are from that book. Could be more pics in the booklet of course, who knows.
-
The Shibuya doll museum Maria no Shinzou made an announcement tweet about the Merry covers, and the tweet before mentioned how the artists they got a confidential visit from the other day were the members of MERRY. So they went to see the dolls in person? D'aww, that's my Merry.

I wonder if people still would give tsumi to kisei the ratings 8/10, 9/10 (extremely high quality, close to being a timeless masterpiece) etc if it instead, for example, was an unknown polish death metal-LSD band who was behind itThere are many bands that play entire albums with songs that sound like Tsumi To Kisei and people like them.I'm one of those people.
So am I. That comment was seriously daft.
I like the whole single a lot.
Yet the guitar solo still sounds like it has no relation to the rest of the song, and I hate solos like that, so it bothers me a little. Everything else I like.
-
The doll ones are the work of the doll artist Katan Amano who passed away twenty years ago already. They're from her book KATAN DOLL. Her work is very, well you could say eroguro in it's creepiness, so I think it fits Merry.
-
Please tell me you're all being sarcastic.
-
I think zaazaa sounds very Merry, since it's always raining in Gara's lyrics.
-
I really need to go to a Merry show in 2003 someday
Fix'd : |
Not saying that I wouldn't like to see メリー live as of now, but it would've been amazing to see the band while it was still eroguro and Gara was masturbating on stage or eating ink or something.
Um, have you not watched any of their recent DVD's? I suggest you buy Type A, if you want to see ink drinking.
A little disappointed by the percentage of actually new songs.

Ohhh more Közi finally? So happy to hear that.
-
Oh I remember reading the newest Tokio Passi (2010), it's a humorously written Finnish travel guide about Japan, and for the section about music the author had interviewed some music industry guy to hear about what's in at the moment. And the first (or second) thing he mentioned was Visual Kei! I was like whaaat? But he didn't name any bands, just went on to name drop popular artists, stuff like Tokyo Jihen and The Cro-Magnons.
-
Calm down, Will.
I like the cover, and I like this album having an apparent concept.
-
Good job! Stay awesome, please!

First some Hameln and then a little bit of 消毒(?), which will be on the album I think. -
Haha, what's with all the boogieman hate? Annoying vocalist/s aside, IIRC they sound far more interesting than kannivalism. Or most VK, but that's not saying much.
-
Wanna bet they're just referring to the album release?
Though I hope not! Only band in the world I'd travel to another country for. Something closer than Japan would be nice for now.
-
wish there was more of shinjuku nana in that video :'[You and me both. Such teasing!
Well I'm really hoping that song will be on the limited type B DVD.
MERRY new album "Beautiful Freaks" release

They put up some sweet words about the album from other musicians: http://merryweb.jp/bf0727drop/mes.html
I appreciate the amout of nil up in there, ehehe. And Tetsu Kikuchi going on and on about how much he loves the guys made me aww.
