Yeah, he definitely got better in the latter half of LUNA SEA's career, and progressively better since they debuted. He was actually borderline awful at the very start. I wouldn't say he was awful at the start, but he certainly got a LOT better as the years went by. His voice on the "One Night Dejavu" concert DVD... just wow. If God existed, he would definitely have a similar voice. And also: Kyo (D'ERLANGER) Morrie (DEAD END) Toshi, at times, not always (X Japan) Tomiko Van (Do As Infinity) Sakurai Atsushi (BUCK-TICK) Wonderful voices, great vocalists.

Wait... DAMN. This thing sells?! It's some of the most retarded music I have ever heard and yet they manage to sell stuff. How is this even possible.. Oh yeah, my verdict: 1/10, beyond terrible

I'm not sure if I'm going to like this... I thought the preview was just a bad part cut out of the song but it seems the song itself is not very good either.

Vidoll wasn't too much of a loss. Even though they had alright music every now and then, I can't imagine this band being anyone's favorite. Or even close to a favorite. Kagrra, however, was kind of sad to see disband. On the bright side though, at least we have LUNA SEA back. D'ERLANGER is active for a couple of years again. Morrie made new music with DEAD END and Creature Creature in the past 2 years. Kuroyume is gonna release new stuff. They may not be visual kei anymore with pink and green hair and ridiculous pants (or at least not so much) but their music is way better than all those small indie bands nowadays. And there's finally an all-female VK band going major. And there's more. Some things fade away, others start and others restart.

How could you pre-order something from a band whose last release was their worst ever? I hope they go for more Ambrozia-like music this time. But even then they have to improve a LOT. Probably won't happen though...

It would be so awesome if they came to the Netherlands. I'm not sure if I'll go to Germany to see them. But in my own country I wouldn't even hesitate one second.

I agree they are an awesome live band. exist†trace was one of the best concerts I've been to. This is some very good news.

Ah, I see. Thanks for the answers. It's too bad they didn't answer the question "What other countries would you like to take it to?" in the interview above. They only mentioned Russia again. Meh.

S-T probably wasn't the only one. People generally tend to think in doom scenarios for the drama. Anyhow, I'm looking forward to this album because I enjoyed their last single a lot.

Am I seeing things or is Kyo getting skinnier? Well, a bit at least. By the way, what is it with Japanese musicians and blood types every time? Is it any useful to them...?

Oh wow. I actually really like this song. This is definitely a good sign for the new album to come.

I can't see this one coming close to Master of Romance either but I'll give it a try.

In short: This!

If I had the chance I would attend that festival too. And I agree the live feed from last year was pretty bad. The annoying ginger guy talking the whole time was like a symbol of the sadness of the general non-Japanese fan. It was embarrassing to watch and to realize he listened to the same music as I do. Well, partly. And the quality of the stream was not great either.. they need to improve that by a lot and replace the ginger guy with someone who actually has a soul clue what they are talking about.

Thumbs up for the awesome and varied setlist. Wow.

Disney Channel has always been a joke. I was watching it for five minutes like a month ago and I saw this really old Mickey Mouse video and I thought "wow, cool, that they still do stuff like this!". Only to find out they raped the whole thing by changing it into a music video and looping the same 3 seconds time after time on the beat of some terrible modern hip-hop-ish track. What the hell were they thinking... I almost puked. And now they remove their only decent show. Way to commit channel suicide!

Prices are ridiculous... holy shit! But not like I care about anything else but the new maxi single... more THE TRUE MURDEROUS INTENTs please!

I actually have Prince and Culture Club albums on my computer because I downloaded them last month. Prince especially is very good. People can say whatever they want but I consider him a great artist.

No, not really. In the end it's still band who decides what music they want to make. girugamesh decided this.

I thought Alter Bridge's 'AB III' was terrible. There are like 4 or 5 good INTRO's to songs on that album and then all those songs turn into an endless black hole of nothingness. And all of the other songs started in there and never got out. Possibly the most boring rock album I ever heard. I gave the Linkin Park album 'A Thousand Suns' a go because I heard they went for something very different this time. Never really liked them but I figured they couldn't get worse anyway... I was wrong. So wrong. The new -OZ- album was just bad. They put a little tiny bit of variation into their songs which is a plus but apart from that the music didn't get any better. It was just mediocre to below average. And of course MUCC's. That was the greatest disappointment of the year because I really enjoyed their previous two albums.

25,350 on first try You need to memorize the patterns... I can't... the missiles appear and I forget stuff

That guy can't seriously be into fashion right? In that PV preview he is wearing the most disgusting outfit one could put together.

what the hell did I just watch what the oh my god

Coal Tar is amazing. Very beautiful song. Double Clutch is cool too. I like all songs on this mini actually except the PV song. That one doesn't do much to me. And I agree Independent is a bit odd, but somehow it's interesting. They did a great job. I like this mini. 8/10, I think, for now. Might change as I listen more. Now... let's listen to Coal Tar again. And again. And again. And again.

I actually like the new album. Some songs are really bad (like Monster) but other songs are pretty awesome like Gorgeous, Devil in a New Dress, All of the Lights and a couple of others.
