Pretty much agree with CAT5 here, the ability to go out and play some songs in a coffee shop or your local rock house, get a label to notice you and make a well paying career out of that (in the US) is a pipe dream. I believe the rock industry is dying. I don't believe, however, that the spirit of rock is dying. Bands are figuring it out on their own more and more these days, and with iTunes, bandcamp, youtube, and a plethora of social media, bands are doing it for themselves. I do believe we'll see more indie labels or completely DIY artists. Maybe rock goes back underground for a while... but for most of the genres I listen to, they've always been like that. As for Gene, he'll be sorry to see the passing of the torch from the days when Rock was King handed off to other genres. But the pendulum will always swing, and maybe the genre needs to go back to grass roots for a while to weed out all the bandwagoners and money grubbers ripping off the bands to make a buck.

miyavi told us that it wan't dead so who do we believe

Dr.REIJI(dustbox) has joined HЁYT at 2014/09/01, and new line-up will hold their first live at Otsuka DEEPA at 2014/09/23

Excellent! One of my favorite Diru songs. Sounds like you've got it pretty well. The only minute thing I could even pick out is it sounds like you down pick the entire song. (It's hard to tell in the video so I'm just going by sound) and I don't think Toshiya does, but seriously that's not something I'd worry myself over because it's just a difference in personal style. Keep it up, I'd love to see more Diru covers from this era.

I have a bass guitar. This is a video of me playing this bass guitar.
Be gentle

I guess I bought ink and paper?

TECHNICALLY, for the sake of specifics, Rock & Roll has been dead since the early 60's with the over-saturation and over-commercialization of the music in a world where pop groups (i.e. The Beatles and a large part of the British Invasion) took precedent over lesser known groups with tighter associations to the blues. Simmons is one to talk, who has used Kiss as a marketing tool ever since the inception of the band.
 
 
I definitely agree with his opinion that music is becoming difficult to break into, though. The world today has far more amateur musicians and those learning music than in something like the 50's and 60's when Rock & Roll was at its strongest. Though, this feels more like a stagnation and development period of the industry than anything else. With the current model of big labels slowly (very slowly) being pushed out in favor of a more personal model of self promotion and consumption separate from Major Label influence, I have hopes that means will be developed for good music to be easily distributable to the masses. Time will tell.

I think he's referring more so to the music industry, and not rock as a genre - and if that's the case, then I agree with him. Any mildly curious person with internet access would be able to tell that rock isn't dead, but the spirit of rock, the spirit of DIY musicians, and artistic integrity is definitely pretty dead within the industry. None of this is really news, though.

Oh god, please don't tell me people actually use the term "djent" as a genre here.
 
This mini is going to be mindblowing for sure, I agree with Rekzer, this made MONSTER sound like GO. Definitely digging these songs, VORTEX and GO AHEAD having some form of Nokubura headbang feeling to it, Reflection being very fast-paced and slightly aggressive; every member has certainly improved drastically

Looks alright to me. Yeah.
 
Rick Genest / Rico the Zombie Boy?
 

I don't mind them. As a matter of fact, when I hear that a bands wants to re-record some of my favourite songs, I usually look forward to it and am curious what they will do with it.
 
Some re-recording are better than the original, some are worse, some are pointless because they aren't much different at all.
 
 
 
I never understood that reasoning. Yes, some re-recording may be worse than the original. But who cares? It's not like the original song will vanish into thin air, or that some almighty power forces people to only listen to the new version from now on. Like the original better? Listen to that one and not the re-recording! Case closed.
 
I think a re-recording makes most sense if the original was done with poor production value due to the limitations of the band at that point. I know some trve kvltists find it sacrilegious to take a song that was originally recorded in the kitchen of vocalists' mother and re-record in a proper studio - but not me. XD Many bands re-record old song because they finally have the means to produce them they way the wanted to begin with, but just couldn't afford to.

Thank you all for your kind welcome and lot of replies ^^ And I added everyone who sent me friend request on last.fm ☆

Dick Gooey Mesh (Girugamesh)

New PV!!! I find it quite disturbing haha.
 

Preview for each track,I came *o*:
 

I was expecting worse based on the sample. It's not my favourite Miyavi song but it's not particularly bad either. It's just... average.
 
Also I can't help but find the contradictory paradox of complaining about his 'lack of progression' while simultaneously comparing it negatively to his previous works (thus indicating a clear, albeit unfavourable, progression of some kind) to be rather amusing.

BABYMETAL will return to the UK and USA in November.
 
2014.11.04 - Hammerstein Ballroom, New York, USA.

I like how the vocalist has a kind of rap flow 9/10. and thanks, I found a great-sounding band!
 

 
vocals start at 1:30

Beautiful vocals. This was a really great surprise! 10/10 from me. I could listen to a lot more from this singer.
 

Glad to know it's actually "Damn baby don't you care that I'm puking all over you". I always thought I was mishearing that part.
