Anyone remember Daichi Kuroda? What's he doing today?

That song is one of my replay tracks, literally.
Someone on LiveJournal made a lot of rumours about where is he now, but nothing is certain at the moment... https://da-family.livejournal.com/554364.html -
That's from 2011 so we haven't heard of him in a long time. The rumour of sex change was at the back of my mind now that I read those comments. He's like another Klaha by now.

Guitars anywhere?

Nice melodic singing in Doukeshi, but then the musicalization is downgraded by the use of synth which literally drowns out any possible guitar lines (if any...). The other songs pretty lazy and generic sounding. Do they really attempt to make memorable music? I really wonder if there's any remaining passion in being D...

A question for you, native English-speakers who like Phantasmagoria. When you sing Mikansei to GUILT, what do you say, And nothing my bloody or And nussing my bloody? 😋
-
Nice! I hope they do well and, if possible, release a DVD.
-
They sound good, skilled people, but as usual today, their music lacks any essence/spirit that I sense with old VK bands. They might as well drop the aesthetics they put on; it plays no relevant role at this point.
-
Great visual production but their music ends up being forgettable.
-
I will walk together to future not promised. It keeps walking together, to future in which you are...
-
Their music is reminiscent of what Malice Mizer sounded like around the time of Ma cherie; at least to my senses. It looks like we are seeing more bands bringing back what some of us crave to hear today. I just want them to succeed.
-
I tried to translate 静寂の闇に舞う愛と悪戯の遁走曲 and... what an overcomplicated title seems to be. 😄
-
I was never a follower of WIZARD although I used to like a few of their songs. I supposed this was caused by smoking which seems too common among VK musicians. Sad news.
-
Many bands actually, but one long forgotten: Baiser. I loved Baiser, it was one of the bands that had a great impact in me. Today I feel the band has fallen into unfair oblivion.
-
Is this real? I don't know how to take it.
-
Probably not musically, although this band aimed for the 90's Visual Kei sound, but aesthetically, definitely La'Mule influence. They were a good band that weren't appreciated enough. GAUZES
-
Like many bands today, they sound uninspired and then come up with aggressive riffs for the "look, we're bad guys" shock value.
-
I love Noir fleurir but I admit a lot of their songs sound like they were just learning the concept of music; they sounded inexperienced in how to compose music I would say. Omocha no MIISHA stands out because it really was a well conceived song musically. I wonder what the impact of the song was in the Visual Kei scence was back then. Their music matured clearly in their last releases before disbandment although it lost the Visual Kei style.

At this point, looks have lost any possible meaning and interest.

I kind of like them but that poor artificial violin sound should no longer be happening in 2019. Either get a better synth or hire an actual violinist. The PV is really dull. Find a house or a mansion, decorate a little, use candle lights to create an atmosphere and move around the place.
-
It takes me back to 2008 when LuLu began activities.
-
I guess asking about his diagnose is useless because they always keep it private. I wonder what his condition is.
-
I don't really listen to BUCK-TICK much although I like some of their songs. I don't know if they're still considered a Visual Kei band, but in the recent days I came across some of their latest PV uploaded to YT and I'm in complete love with those songs. BABEL and MOON sayonara wo oshiete. such beautiful and enchanting songs; especially MOON sayonara wo oshiete, it evokes mono no aware feelings in me. The music, lyrics, the theatrical performance. Pure art. I can't express accurately the beauty some humans are capable of creating.
These guys make great music, one the current state of VK should learn from. My strong disatisfaction with today's VK finds relief in BUCK-TICK.
-
Definitely...I saw some folks were not that thrilled with BABEL even as long time fans, but I think it has all the feeling of the old still. I don't think Mr. Sakurai is able to perform without charged emotion lol, even some of their 'grittiest' songs still carry that same sense for me too. Can enjoy other new bands sure at an extent, but B-T are on the tier above and won't be forgotten in time.

Isn't he Seth? And how do you properly translate 濡れる夜 into English?
-
More of the same.
-
I find their music so... 😴 I only liked them around the time of Yami ni chiru sakura. Such potential with that style.
-
English and French don't have the mysticism that surrounds the Latin language. Bands using words from any language to get their names is no problem. I simply feel Sukekiyo overuses Latin and it feels pretentious.
