Sorry to hear that Naru . . . O____o

Maybe move this to Tainted Waffles since this a big joke anyway. the judgement day site is down for maintenance, maybe they changing the dates now? lol

Normally, I disagree with Dawkin's beliefs but he's sadly right on target with that quote, lol.

For anyone curious - here is Andymori's new album information: http://www.andymori.com/3rdalbum/

Harold Camping is a big fat scammer who makes me sick and that's all I have to say.

Hey it's the South Carolina state motto, lol. Thought the same, actually.

^_________________^ !!!!

this cant be for real.

Google is taking over the world, I swear. Integrating with YouTube accounts and others, now this. My blogs were made post-2007 so I guess I'm in the clear. . . ?

Baroque and An Cafe are the best. ^^

Very generic suggestions for Loudness but Thunder in the East and Disillusion (English or Japanese version) are classic albums. A key thing to know about Loudness is to listen to the ones with Niihara as singer. Mike Vescera just sucks. . .don't even bother.

Probably. . . The Stalin (w/ original '85 lineup) x Melt-Banana Number Girl x Boris Anthem x Grand Slam

Love The Stalin (michirrrrooooo), Guitar Wolf, Yellow Monkey, and Blankey Jet City (if they count). Also, obviously a lot of the 80's metal bands such as Anthem, Loudness, et. al.

YES

Didn't she actually get famous enough to get on a Japanese TV show/porn/whatever or something like that?

Haha, awesome. Yay, for more MxBx fans on MH!!!

Can't decide if I like the song or not, but nothing about it strikes me really. But, but, but! I enjoy the music video too.

I like Gackt, don't get me wrong, but I just wish he'd release a decent album for once and not just more so-so singles. I don't even think Reborn should count as an original album - more like another compilation. Edit: Fix'd

I found it via Google on one of my leeching escapades back before I bothered to buy anything. I registered at TW.net long before I became active under some random account to get some Yama-B downloads and then forgot about it until a year ago when I got tired of the other forum I used to go on.

I wouldn't consider myself a HUGE indie fan, I probably couldn't name that many bands as CAT5 or Aion, but I am a HUGE fan of Number Girl and a massive Inazawa fan girl. I think he's the most kawaii indie rocker ever, not to mention one of the greatest Japanese drummers. Never was fond of Mukai's projects, though I thought Kimonos was fantastic. I liked one of Nakao Kentaro's bands Spiral Chord too; they are one of those not-so-typical garage bands. Another band I consider kawaii is andymori, though I've only known about them for a year or so. I have a thing for "indie-style" rock bands with catchy melodies and clear vocals. I'm THRILLED about their upcoming album. Melt-Banana is also a big favorite - finally music that fits my attention span. Agata is <3. Recently, I also got into Molice. I think Rinko is sorta cute and her voice isn't bad either. They are probably the first female-fronted Japanese bands I've really held an interest in lately besides Melt-Banana. I have a thing for that punkish new-wave sound. Speaking of which, I also love VOLA & the Oriental Machine, even though they are actually major now and became Telephones II: Electric Boogaloo. I think PRINCIPLE was a solid album; had more high points than SA-KA-NA had for me, though it certainly doesn't contend with Android and Darkside. I guess to name some bands I have a passing interest within the more "well-known" indie bands: Sparta Locals, Ginnan Boyz, Eastern Youth, and downy. I have more favorite bands in the "super ultra mega underground" category. I love a lot of the Japanese post-emo, punk, and hardcore bands. Sunsgrind is probably my biggest guilty pleasure - I have a weak spot for sappy melodic hardcore sk8ter music sung in Engrish :B. Some other underground bands As Meias, Bluebeard, and Onsa that have the pretty post-rock/post-emo sound I fall for, as long as the vocalist isn't too nasally. Recently in regards to that brand of indie, I've gotten into Cowpers and Exclaim. Cowpers being a 90's hardcore band, and Exclaim being a DIY punk band that sounds like steroids on steroids. Pretty amazing. . . I'm sure I've left out someone else. . .

Lol, that's golden. Don't have an answer to your question, I'm just glad most of the stupidity is harbored on FB and the internet and not anywhere near where I live.

Eeeeeeeek, another Eizo Sakamoto and Anthem fan on MH!!! Welcome!!!
