LIDL reacted to Furik in DIR EN GREY released their 10th album "The Insulated World" on September 26, 2018
I’m intrigued. They haven’t used an English title in a long time. Maybe this means they won’t be a faux-avant-garde band and actually make good rock music again. /pressed

The second disc of Arche had a couple of excellent songs (And Zero and Tefu Tefu) that made it worth it for me. The rest of the crappy remixes I skip of course.

LIDL reacted to cvltic in [UPDATE: IT'S BACK] Tanuki is down; is this the end?
btw the server outage initially sparked a bunch of rumors that someone had gotten arrested for libel or something from the wota/youtube side of tanuki (which a lot of gya/band tanuki doesn't know exists and vice versa). of course the minute it was back there was a thread for exposing people who expressed joy about its demise on twitter lmao

LIDL reacted to Peace Heavy mk II in Why do you think that J-rock never really broke through in the west?
This point is kind of the explanation of your second and fourth point as well. It's not that it's not in English, per say, as there are many hit songs that are not in English over the past few decades ("Despacito," "99 Red Balloons," "All the things she said," whatever people like by Rammstein, etc) but it's that it isn't being sung in a European language.
From an American-centric standpoint, European things are considered fancy, refined, exotic enough to be just out of reach from the common man, but for whatever reason not considered to be inherently foreign. Maybe because many people here are 2nd ~ 4th generation American and still have ties to their ancestry (even if bastardized by 40~100 years of not actually being a part of that culture), or maybe because there is still some remnants of post-war xenophobia that makes the average non-urbanite think "what is this g**k shit???" when coming across anything Asian that's more authentic than Orange Chicken.
That being said, "Gangnam Style" did essentially pave the way for Kp*p to become more mainstream here. I have even heard 2ne1 playing in stores while shopping, so it's not like that one song was some sort of Macarena-tier fluke. I highly, highly doubt a vkei song as the scene currently stands (or has stood in the past) will be able to break through like that. At best, to a normie it will be regarded as Kp*p's angsty gender-whatever cousin.

Also with the possibility of this 🔥Super Deluxe Version🔥 having both sets of tracks from the other versions which makes it a basic cashgrab...👀

LIDL got a reaction from raspberrynilla in 5 Things I Hate About VK
Live Dist releases for sure, and the new trend of the more settled older bands or a member of the said bands doing side project and releasing limited versions with super hefty prices, like, chill Chris Brown! Your DVD just not worth $50 no matter what 😂😂😂

LIDL reacted to Ro plz in How come Mejibray are more popular than a lot of VK bands from this decade?
This.
I became frustrated with the band in a similar fashion as the GazettE when they started falling off the wagon, post DIM. The music was complete ass but the looks stayed consistent. At least with the GazettE, some of the blame could rightfully be shifted towards the label switch to Sony and after DIVISION, they started dropping significantly better music. Mejibray, unless I'm correct didn't have that (kind of )issue. They just got worse and worse over time musically but again stayed consistent with the stellar looks. Its clear that they became complacent with where they were, the die hard fans they accumulated, and had no indication of evolving their sound. There's nothing wrong with that but for a band that had so much potential, you really can't blame people for jumping ship at all.
I'm also under suspicion that another reason why Mejibray fell off was because whoever their main and possibly only song writer was, must've ran outta steam hella quick. It became to hard to start telling songs apart....
