@Seimeisen@TheZigzagoon Yeah, that's what I'm thinking as well. Basically their first collection album (Dainihon Itangeishateki Noumiso Gyaku Kaiten Zekkyou Ongenshuu) re-recorded would be very cool.

Re-recordings seems to be in fashion now. Would be cool if they re-recorded some early stuff.

Kyo's real name is Hironori Nishimura, not Touru. But as his stage name is Kyo you should probably refer him to as that.

lmaoooooo. kiwamu salty af

Damn, I've listened to both bands but I had no idea they got popular in such short time... that's really cool!

This is something I've been thinking about for quite some time, I am always impressed by vk bands who manage to get huge in little to no time, but which is actually the fastest growing vk band of all time? I can't find any listing like this online, so if anybody knows any bands who progressed really really fast, feel free to write about them here. The first one that comes to mind for me is LUNA SEA January 1989 - start band activities (no label deal). December 1989 - Sold out Machida playhouse (150 tickets sold). (Just for measure, I've never seen Grieva sell more than 250 tickets/gig in their 6 year career). November 1990 - Sold out Meguro Live station two days straight (500 tickets sold) March 1991 - Nuclear Fusion Tour (/w Gilles de Rais & Sighs of Love potion) sold out Shibuya Kokaido (2080 tickets sold) April 1991 - To celebrate their debut album @ extasy records, they giged at Shinjuku Nissin Power station. (800 tickets sold out in less than 30 minutes) September 1991 - Under the new moon tour final @ nihon aonenkan (1250 tickets sold) December 1991 - to match the fan request they announced two days gig at nihon aonenkan (2500 tickets sold). August 1993 - first Budoukan gig (two days, which eventually turned into one day because a typhoon destroyed part of the building) (14,000~ tickets sold) December 1995 - first Tokyo Dome gig (56,000 tickets sold) So, after signing with Extasy in 1990, going major in 1991 (a mere year later) to having their first dome gig 4 years afterwards, and getting it sold out. I think it's very impressive. I'm sure there must be bands who have managed to do it equally fast, or even faster though?

can they release info on the new album already ffs

I made this many moons ago

that guy is a mess

The announcement was that they'll be releasing a cover single of CREAM (cash rules everything around me) by wu tang.

Umm...

this is horrible

It would be gold if an actual jrock news site used our posts as legit information (track listing, cover art etc).

Enjoyed the pv way more than I expected.

Stop necroing these topics and let Yayoi R E S T also use the search function and you shall find what you are looking for.

I translated the first part of the interview last week. I was going to wait with posting it until I'm all done but I think I won't be doing the remaining part for at least another week. I'll update this post once I've done it.

Yeah, thought so too. If they include nounai flower and stuff like that then I am definitely getting it. who am i kidding lol, probably buying both types eitherway .___. i hope they have dvd as well (since their pv collections is on the cover) but i doubt it... and if everything on the covers are included then it will probably be like 6000 jpy for each type.

That is the best song they've ever done tbh also, if the cover art represents the songs on the CD's then we can expect like 25 songs on each cd... minimum. lol.

Mucc did already cover la vie en rose btw, if someone here hasn't heard it

I'm not sure why people are surprised of seeing dezert here. They giged together last year with derlanger and caligari, and they're doing very well for a vk band. They've sold out blitz and venues likes that, no? I've not been In Japan for two years, but I'd say they're equally as popular as diaura and arlequin, but with a darker band concept. anyway, not sure what to expect as I've only listened to derlangers la vie en rose album. I really hope to see sadistic emotion, dear secret lover, lazy sleazy and 1999 shy boy story on the album.

OH BOY HERE WE GO
