  1. Somehow I didn't find an appropriate topic for this? To be more specific; I don't mean just funny PVs or bad / crappy / shocking PVs neither PVs where members just mess around - I mean PVs that seem to be a bit deeper and totally make you scratch your head or where you don't get the meaning or parts of it; the ones that are really strange and / or confusing due to the content or story, a bit deeper then just "WTF" (I hope somebody gets my point here - sorry if not, I know it sounds unusual :P)... I'd love to get some Youtube samples here, maybe stuff that's not so well known.

     

    -> Just a sample I recently stumbled upon. Reason; grapes ?!?


  2. This thread needs more love… hmm, I just stumbled upon ЯeaL… seems like I've missed this back in november/december.

    4 piece girls band from Osaka, active a bit over 1 year and pretty young (17 y/o), so they're just getting things started (only a self-released 2 track single out). I's a bit on the average girl rock side I guess, the vocals are not perfect (the kind that many find annoying - but with girl rock I can live with it), the backing is pretty solid tho (esp. considering their age). If you like that genre in general (girl bands like FLiP and such) it's really not too bad - good enough for me to keep an eye open for possible future releases.

  3. Ricco Label & RiLF have a nice valentine's day present which fits in here pretty well I guess…

     

     

    Happy Valentine's Day! We uploaded a new song 'count4' of RiLF, the post-rock band formed by the members of Anoice and Calu, who is the vocalist of Matryoshka. You can download the mp3 (320kbps) for free from the following website until 14 March, 2014. This song will never be included in RiLF's albums, and never be sold on any digital stores.

     
    This is a pretty interesting and kind of exclusive collab-track (Sigur Ros on drums, mastered by KASHIWA Daisuke) - so get it while you can! Music wise it's a bit on the fuzzy side with ambient elements and maybe not for everyones taste… just give it a try on Youtube.

  4. as far as I remember there are a lot good ones around… but I'd also need to dig them up first.

     

    for now I'll just go with one of my all-time-favourite PV's - it's just animated (even poorly and not up in HQ on YT) but I really love the story, the essence, the feeling of it… watching it helps me when life sucks (don't know if anybody can follow me here).

     

    BLOODTHIRSTY BUTCHERS - JACK NICOLSON

     

  5. this thread shouldn't die!

     

    browsing around I recently stumbled upon "ROLLICKSOME SCHEME" -> haven't heard of them before; but I must admit I totally dig it! Incredible stuff actually if you ask me -> the PV sounds pretty unspectacular first, with slow pace and backing... but just wait for the 2:20 mark, and it even gets better towards the end :)

     


  6. seems like the official video from cologne has not been posted here;

     

     

    Just for info; the shows are not sold out so it's no problem to still get tickets directly at the shows!

    Hope to see some of you guys in Vienna tomorrow ;)


  7. Some fan-Q&A has been released with english subtitles now;

     

    And to give this a little push -> according to my info there are still enough tickets available for all the shows!

    Pre-sale is always a bit cheaper and safer then on-site, just to mention...


  8. I'd love to see an extended EU-tour also since I missed them both when they were in Germany a few years ago and when I was in Tokyo… Still one of my fav. bands…

     

    Why Serbia -> I don't know… I guess it has to do with the studio that did their latest music video and stuff (ppl working there seem to come from Serbia?). At least I come to this conclusion after digging a bit into the details of the campaign and stuff.

     

    Anyways; I dropped them 100 Dollars as I think that's not a bad price for getting all(!) of the 101A merch…

     

    Don't know if I'll make it to Serbia tho since it's the exact time-frame as Deathgaze.

    But well - I'll try :)

     

    New PV btw;


  9. 101A is touring Serbia from early to mid july!

    Not only that but they also have an indiegogo-campaign running to support them (and to get some nice pledges) - please do so if you have the chance (and money)… :)

  10. the concerts are long over so this might be a bit off topic but anyways;

     

    these girls are featured up on the MTV IGGY artist of the week voting and need some votes to win this;

    http://www.mtviggy.com/blog-posts/artist-of-the-week-vote-for-your-favorite-113/

     

    it would be great if some of you are able to do so :)

    this would push the chance for some more focus on japanese artists in general up on MTV - and not only JOSY...

    if you vote or did so already; thank you so much! <3


  11. I suppose I'll catch them in Paris then... I was debating over myself weather I should attend Japan Expo this year or not (haven't been every year as the music-programming varies) but this is a good reason for just doing it. To be honest I only like their earlier stuff (they went way too mainstream now for my taste) but experiencing a sort of bigger J-Pop Live sounds good anyways :)


  12. Traveling by train is pretty expensive in Germany as long as you don't have their "bonus-card" (it's called BahnCard if I remember correctly). For long distance over a few days you can save some money by choosing "Interrail" - you can find all info on that one over here; http://www.interrail.eu - but for like Paris to Düsseldorf or Munich directly I'd just check out the flight-prices and go by plane, you just need to add the transfer costs from (and to) the airports in addition as they are often a bit outside of the town.

     

    hope that helps a bit…


  13. Hi there…

     

    I don't know if people heard about it but bands like Electric Eel Shock are raising the funds for their recordings directly from fans for quite some time now - and you get extras like free concert-entry and so on if you help them with pledges/money. So far so good… I always liked the idea but didn't have the time/money/motivation to back them and it was not so easy on an international level until now.

     

    Anyways - there's a project which makes it easier to do so now and which features more bands and project (at least upcoming), e.g. the wonderful guys from MOLICE…

     

    You can find all the info needed here;

    http://www.fan-bo.com (official web and links to the project/band-funding)

    http://www.facebook.com/FanBoJp (facebook page)

     

    I'm not affiliated with this project but I like the bands and I think I'll pledge some money to the fund-raising for the new MOLICE-album, and maybe more later on :)

     

    Would be cool if you have a look and maybe spread the word!

    Thank you! :)


  14. hmm, ich versuche in letzter Zeit mich wieder etwas bewusster zu ernähren - also weniger Fleisch und mehr "Grünzeug" :)

    von der Figur her hab ich's nicht nötig - bin fast schon untergewichtig (erblich bedingt) - aber es fühlt sich trotzdem gut an, auch wenn man nicht Abnehmen will/muss...

     

    das Single- und Workaholic-Leben haut mich halt ernährungsmäßig regelmäßig aus der Bahn; eine richtige Regelmäßigkeit bekomme ich da nicht wirklich in meinen Tagesablauf D:
