Hozier - To Be Alone

Yeah, it gets chaotic at times, but it's definitely one of the best ones so far. Still not Enies Lobby kind of good but it gets close!

Welcome back!

Voted for no preferences but I realize I rarely came across a Japanese female vocalist that left an impression on me as much as many male ones did. Thanks to Cat I recently found out about Kaimokujisho and I l-o-v-e their singer, hope I'll be able to discover more in the future!

Welcome here! What a lovely introduction post, it was a pleasure reading it - awesome band list aside. I find it admirable of you to just be so open right from the beginning, so a huge double thumbs up! I'm sure you'll enjoy your stay, see you around!

Benvenuto!

Hell to the no. D:

Indeed. I'm totally fine with them not putting out singles anymore and taking time between each record. Anyways, their new look haunts me in my dreams and I'm so ready for this new album. I'll have a good reason to hate summer a little less this year. Bring it on guys!

Another Italian, yay! Welcome here, hope you enjoy your stay! ;3

Very nice song, though their name kind of makes me laugh 'cause it means "anxiety" in Italian...

I have a little kitty who lightly nibbles my chin after I kiss the top of his head. I guess it's his way of returning my gesture :')

Sugizo! Skiing or snowboarding?

To this day, I've only been able to go see those bands who were so kind as to come play in my country. ;3; It's a pretty short list, consisting of D'espairsRay (2010), Versailles (2011) and D (2012). Dir en grey came like three times in Italy since I started following them but for some reason I could never go and I regret it so bad it hurts, especially when they were promoting Uroboros. Hope I'll be luckier in the future Best one was definitely Despa, "Monsters" was great live; and somehow Hizumi delivered a marvelous vocal performance despite being already ill. I think it would've probably been best if he didn't keep on straining his voice until the end of that year (after the European leg they got back to Japan and performed some more if I remember correctly), but from a slightly selfish point of view, I'm glad I could see them at least for once. Still totally bummed about their disbandment and will always be, though.

A part of me tells me not to get too hyped, but another is just:

Beh, gli X live sono una garanzia! E credo facciano un genere abbastanza appetibile a chi è abituato alla musica occidentale...Ricordo che quando feci ascoltare qualcosa di j-rock a dei miei compagni di liceo mi risposero che era "strana" oltre che per la lingua per la componente ritmica e strumentale in generale... Forse c'è effettivamente una differenza di fondo in quel senso, ma per me che vado più a sensazione anziché secondo il livello più propriamente tecnico della musica non cambia molto!

Woot! Hope they become a band later on!

Ma ci saranno sicuramente...È che non è facile beccarsi! ><

Kudos for including Nabuma Rubberband! It's truly a gem <3

Little Dragon - Pretty Girls (gawd I love it)

Karasu and Kodoku ni shisu, omg yes. And I'd watch the hell out of that Mtv special, hope I'll be able to somehow. Again, thank you for these updates! And no Kaishun, Phenomenon or Tefutefu...;;
