With foreign you mean from Asia? Because Swedish, Polish, Italian, German, French, African, Australian etc. musicians don't usually use all caps. It's more of an Asian thing.

Shout out to the man with the ice cream van who has no patience. If you want to sell your ice cream cones to me you better have some f*#&^ng patience while I tie my shoelaces, damn it.

So I gave the PV track a listen because anything that divides opinions this much grabs my attention. These are the sounds of a dying cat (in heat?) backed up by a monotone chaos of unrelated instrumentals much like a jam session where everyone's on acid and not actually listening to one other because they have headphones on. What the fuck. Needless to say I don't like sounds of dying cats. On an unrelated note: the last.fm statistics must be severely messed up because no group has 5600 listeners and 1.3 million scrobbles. Manipulation or hardcore fans?

"You have reached your quota of positive votes for the day" I actually like things.

I learned something today! Negative comments on a thing may drain the energy right out of those who may like that thing. We shouldn't talk about things we don't like because there's always some special people whose parents never allowed them to climb on the toys at the children's playground.

I'm okay with the theme if you spin Grandmaster Flash for the entire duration of the session.

I miss the real "subcultures". The goths, the punks, the skaters, the glam rockers, the hair metallists, the hippies and stoners, etc. Looking at youth these days they all seem to blend into one another. There's the occasional longhaired metalhead, but that's it? They have no style, not the slightest taste in fashion, and no attitude that stands out. I believe it would make for a more diverse and fascinating society if these different styles were more present (given they would still be able to live peacefully alongside eachother of course!) Does hipster count? Nah, I think hipsters were more or less the result of the death of all the other cultures. If you think about it, people are struggling to define the hipster. "What makes a hipster" seems to be a much harder question to answer than "what makes a *any of the above*" as if they are a bunch of people who are bored with being normal but have no clue what else to do. As far as music is concerned, it's very possible that the lack of diversity in music caused the lack of diversity in subcultures or vice versa (what came first, the chicken or the egg?). When I was 15 and in school, we'd often talk about different subcultures in the classroom. We would make whole presentations on them and teach eachother about the diversity of people. With the job(s) I do these days I often come in contact with children of about this age and quite honestly, I have a hard time remembering names and faces because they are all the same. Casual conversation during breaks/lunchtime never leads to any particular interests or lifestyles. In fact, most seem to be largely unaware of hippies, goths, punks and IF they have an idea of these terms they're only used as mockery or they're used to indicate that they once existed... a long time ago. I asked myself if the internet is to blame. Does the internet make it easier for people with other interests to meet up and express their desires to live certain lifestyles and listen to certain music together... sure does. But does that mean there is less of a desire to express one's self in daily life? Do people leave their steampunk boots, smoke weed everyday-shirts and mohawk haircuts at home because they can use the internet to meet up with others who find these things cool? I think that may play a big part. On the other hand, one could argue that subcultures started dying when grunge came around in the early 90's (it was about that time that 80's metal and new wave was killed off and shoegaze and goth almost died too) but then again the grunge brought a lot of people together too and could be considered a subculture. These days there isn't a single subculture of a considerable size other than "hipsters" who are not actually "hip" but rather "subnormal", like, let's be slightly less normal, but still actually kind of normal... ...

Ask him if he's Jesus. Everybody wants to be friends with Jesus.

No, I think these setlists are rather plain. Not getting too excited about most of the songs. Mr. Newsman is a great addition though.

80's shoulder pads are the greatest. It's possible the kids of 2040 will be even more confused when looking at the casual modern day "fashion" styles than the ridiculous 80's outfits to be honest. By that time the 80's might be super cool again because it'll be seen as the major influence on the 2040's while the 10's might be the theatre they laugh at. Who knows. And Mick Jagger in 80's clothes still looks better than any visual kei youngster today.

It's sickening to see directors and other men in suits from those "charities" on television with a look of delight on their faces at the prospect of millions in donations for the earthquake disaster. Those over at Giro 555 are ordinary thieves who thrive on the misery of others. Dutch people know what I'm talking about.

Has anyone actually listened to the 2015 remaster of Aku no hana? How is it compared to the original? I love Aku no hana but for some reason on the original CD the sounds are too "dense" for the songs. A little muddled even.. like one guitar is thrown on top of another and they drown eachother out instead of sounding fine alongside eachother if you get what I mean.

Men and women sometimes seem like two different species so I'll opt for these to stay two seperate "categories". I agree that terms like black and white and gay and straight shouldn't be mentioned so often though... but I wish you good luck stopping the (social) media.

Music is, I believe, the second hardest medium to write passable reviews on though. So no wonder that sometimes we don't get any further than "I like that riff". The only things more difficult to review must be the museum arts like paintings and sculptures. Literature and film are considerably "easier" to review.

That sudden enlightenment when you decide to try another music player and it's far superior to all others you've been using. All hail 'MusicBee'

I don't know, but even a 'light' touring schedule like that seems very demanding for the kind of music they make, especially for Kyo's throat. Always did have some admiration for those metallists and their screaming and growling and how they survive with an intensive schedule.
