we are very proud to be able to bring MORRIGAN to tour Europe in November this year with the help of our friends at KINETIC VIBE.
 
more details and information coming soon.

I think Mikaru did a very good job with this release, have you considered how hard it is to sing/talk in another language? Especially English, one of the hardest languages to learn in the present day!
I was lucky enough to see him on his latest European tour and it was such a lovely experience, his interaction with everyone was great, the live music was great, it was lovely!  - I can't wait to hear more releases from him in the future! 
 
 

I was hoping for a hoax until the very end ...
I'm so shocked and I don't know what to say ...
They were the first band I've ever owned a CD of, they were the band that introduced me to Metal ...
Rest in peace Chester.

I was so bored that I put in my favorite lenses and tried to do cool make up (and failed) to take photos but only those two turned out well

I have heard a few estimates, but it is still a little way away. (Don't worry unless something big happens, it will drop in 2017)
 
they are working extremely hard on this album and are putting in well over 100% of effort so I can assure you it will be worth the wait.
 
and as for the new guitarist, in my opinion he is worth the wait too.

I hope Yuki returns with a new band!!

replaying this since they've posted it. I'm literally drooling all over my place because I freaking love it

I wasn't sure where to put this so please move it if it's better suited for another subforum!

There was a relatively interesting article on e-aidem interviewing the chief manager of the Tokyo likea branch about why VK cd shops continue in an age where CD purchases are on the decline. It's not every day there's an actual article on VK as a whole and their conversation was more interesting than I expected so I wanted to translate it for anyone who might be interested.

I only included the pictures that helped in the understanding of what was being discussed and the only text here is the actual interview and not the blog-ish portions about the interviewer's visit, but you can see the full article here.

H: Ai Hinishi, the interviewer
M: Matsumoto, chief manager of Likea Tokyo
 
 

Hope this was interesting to someone... I was unaware of the history of the store as a UK rock shop.

didn't see this before this popped up again, so here's mine.
feel free to add me or judge me about my taste in music

since people are writing about concerts that weren't in Japan, I'll add some things I want to share too that happened to me in Germany/Austria
 
PLUNKLOCK:
not exactly during the concert but the signsession that took place before the concert.
Halo was signing with a green marker and when he looked at me he got so excited about that his marker had the same color like my hair that he had to interrupt Haruka who was signing another fans poster and made him look at me and his marker. pinky freaked out completey and was like "I'M PINKY YOU'RE GREENY" the whole time.
Never seen someone being so excited about colored hair.
 
DEATHGAZE:
We already caught AIs attention during the concert because we were singing along the whole time and me and a friend were ... uhm ... dancing in the middle of the crowd and he pointed at us several times to show it to the other members.
after the concert we were sitting next to our car not realizing that it were parked next to the tourbus (it was really small, probably thats why) and that friend I was 'dancing' with sat down on the hood of our car, but the friend who owned the car said that she should get off. She ignored her  so I got up and stood right in front of her, bowing down to grab  her arms ... when everyone around us started screaming and laughing ... I turned around and there was Kousuke, looking at us with his mouth open, unable to move for  a few seconds until he started smiling in a really creepy way ...
we went to another concert two days later and when Kousuke saw us he asked were my "girlfriend" is because she wasn't there. awkward ... but kind of funny.

I was in the first row for MUCC's culture center live in Mito last week, and when they switched parts for their first encore Tatsuro played the bass and I could see there was a guy holding a big cardboard sign in the gap between the seats and the stage, running after him as he moved on stage. Then I saw the sign had bass tabs written on it. He was still messing it up and it was very cute. It got even funnier when they used the smoke machine during Ranchuu and he was squinting to look at the tabs through the smoke. I'm a sucker for silly gags like this so it made me really happy.

SaTaN:
I didn't pay attention for a short time because I was talking to the girl next to me when she suddenly started laughing. I didn't know why but then I realized that Mr.SaTaN wasn't on stage anymore. He sneaked  up behind me and it scared the shit out of me when I turned around because he was so fucking close. There were only about 40 people around so it wasn't that difficult to see that I wasn't looking at the stage ... After their show we talked for a short while and he was so excited that they had fans outside of Japan and he kind of ignored the japanese fans just to talk to me (I guess he was like... really excited haha)
 
DOAK:
I don't know if this is something special or interesting, but a nice japanese girl switched place with me so I could be closer to the stage during DOAKs show when she heard that I just came to Japan to see their last live. So this was my first time in the second row for seeing one of my favorite bands. Everyone around me was so nice and they integrated me in everything. I was used to be ignored for being a foreigner so this was really exciting for me. Never felt this happy before. Meeting Yuuki after the show made it the most perfect day of my life.
 
K:
Cazqui where his support guitarist during this live and when he threw his pick I was about to catch it but instead of closing my hand I hit it and it fell behind the barrier. I politely asked a staff if he could give it to me but he said no and gave it to another girl that was screaming on him to give it to her instead ... I'm still pretty mad about this
