If anyone is curious this is their setlist from last time I saw them  (3 and 4 are new songs)
 

Hoping for something nice here. Also happy Kyoka is not in this band, as it most likely would end up on hiatus within a year if he were.

IMO both of those are bands that White People care about more than actual Japanese fans... (because they look cool)

At least it's cooler than on purpose, possibly making someone feel bad and insecure about themselves.

Great assumption. I love myself too much huh? Where did you pull that one out from eh? I actually have a lot of self image problems and had all kinds of shit thrown out at me for things I did in the past involving music. It made me feel like complete shit but I continued on. I'd love to know where exactly you got this idea about me from. 
 
I would also like to know why you're using my real name on here. Obviously I wish to be known as "Neolicht" on this forum. I even deleted my real name from most places on the internet. You must be stalking me or something I guess.

Not necessarily, even though I assume a lot of people probably do. People also post selfies when they feel good about their looks. Is it really something bad though? lol. What's bad is bashing on how someone looks.
Also, to be honest his make-up is not very different from most 90's indie visual kei band lol.

I think there's nothing to be ashamed about. I've had some bad projects and I'm also in an old school vk influenced project that I formed online through this site. Every band has been shit when they first started out. It takes a lot balls to put yourself out there and to try. It's a lot easier to just sit back behind your computer and say "Lol look at these sucky weeaboo poserz" Than to try it yourself.
 
I do appreciate this thread though and I think it's cool to share music in this way bad or not. All forms of criticism can help a band. I listen to criticism and try to become better with it. Although some people just like to be assholes too. My band is still working on an album and I look forward to hearing all of your criticism or impressions when it's finished. I'll even post it in the "Truly crappy western vk" thread here.
 
I'd also like to say that no matter how shit I feel about my past or new works I do it all because of my love for music and expression. A lot of people are afraid to put themselves out there but the good artists continue to do so and continue to grow. Most of the people in these bands are teenagers or very young and inexperienced. Take a look at some of your beloved Jrock bands at the same age, level of equipment, etc and you probably won't see much better.

Gaz, don't be a dick. If you are genuinely curious, learn to ask in a polite manner instead of an insulting one.

Had a photo session with my friend today. Enjoy my sexyness!

有頂天(uchouten) will resume activities in 2015, and they will release new CD and their previous original albums will be re-released

Are they going to do anything other than take gorgeous promo pictures and continue to disappoint??? Release something

Whew! Just scanned through the whole tread and I'm relieved that the VK inspired band I played in aren't mentioned anywhere as of yet!
 
To what little credit we had, I think we were pretty much the first VK-inspired band formed in Sweden. Had a bunch of original song which where deftly not preserved for posterity (at least none of the good ones were).
 
Either way - we weren't cool enough and nobody liked us, so that sorted our "career" pretty efficiently.
Still - I learned a whole lot of things during the experience ...mainly lots of stuff to avoid and what not to do when you're in a band
 
Fun times overall though ...I get my portions of nostalgia, though I have to admit that playing out live at crowded bullshit conventions with crap equipment being scrutinized by not-very-approving DEG fangirls is something I can live without these days.
 
The best gigs were when we played for mostly non-VK people ...had we toned down our shitty makeup and started to sing in English or Swedish, maybe something would've come out of it. Who knows! But on the other side - how h4rdc0re is that?
 
There exists at least one video up on YouTube of our horrendous escapades, but I'll keep that a secret for now.
Uglymouth is forbidden to chime in on this question

Transcribed by myself from the "booklet" of their first real release. It was difficult since they wrote it in a real weird way... Will try and translate it as well when I get time, if someone wants to try it as well, go ahead.
 
薄暗い玄関
私は引きずられカミソリの浴槽暖かく溺れて
溺レテ・・・溺レテ溺レテ溺レテ溺レタ腐ッテ・・・
壊れた私ハ浸食シテイク
手を伸ばして睨みつけたもがいたたけ
排水溝へと流れて無数の赤 染め上げたわ

私の白い机が嫌いなあなたは笑うでしょう？
溺レテ・・・溺レテ溺レテ溺レテ溺レタ腐ッテ・・・
壊れた私ハ浸食シテイク目が覚めたらこんな浅い浴槽に溺れていたんだと気づいた
朝日はもう出てるのかな 暗くて鏡が見えないから 「よかった」 笑いましょう
フタをして隠した悲観的な私空き落としたあなたそれは私でした。

Jeeeeeesus christ.
What the fuck is wrong with you. People don't like you, either take a good long look in the mirror or live with it ( I don't have too many fans and I get by just fine ). Applies to every single turd who writes this passive aggressive garbage here on the regular.
