I don't know what happened, so I'm going to assume there is some reason the mods have all  converged towards that ban and they weren't just being bullies. But even if Trombe was in the wrong, that does not in any way invalidate all the valuable contributions this person brought to the News section and the forum in general. I find it in poor taste to suddenly start acting as if his work wasn't such a big deal or even worse, that it was inconvenient this person was so thorough in news coverage.  I didn't see anyone complain about this before, so It feels disingenuous to start downplaying his/her work now that he/she won't post anymore.  I'm sure it's not the same for everyone here, but take a step back and it's easy to realize some of us were really appreciative of all the news posted, either minor or major, and in very due time. Just an opinion from someone who barely posts and has no  particular sympathies for anyone.

On 2017.10.18, they will release a new single called 「管」(Kan). (1620 yen)
 
Tracklist :
01.管(Kan)
02.アンドロイドと果実 (Android to kajitsu)
03.箱庭(Hakoniwa)
 
 

LIPHLICH new album "CLUB FLEURET" will be released at 2017/10/11(3240Y)
 
they will hold their oneman live tour [CLUB FLEURET] since 2017/10/14 at Umeda Shangri-La to 2017/12/03 at Kobe VARIT

Oh man, when I saw Manson in 2007, I definitely did not think I got my money's worth (the trip to and from Bucharest and a festival ticket for his performance only). It seemed like he didn't even try and would have preferred being anywhere else but there. Word got out afterwards that he was actually pissed because the organizers wouldn't get him any drugs. I'm not sure if showing his ass was his way of making it up to us, but that happened, wasn't expecting he'd "grace" us with such classic stage antics, but that too felt jarring amidst such a lackluster performance. No one realized the last song was the last song because he just left. No oomph at the end or anything, he was gone before we even realized it, but it's just a funny memory now. Sounds like you had a much better experience so now I'll definitely go see him again if I get the chance.

Going to Marilyn Manson's gig tonight, first show of the tour! I'm half-excited (cuz omg he was the reason that I seriously got into music like 17 years ago) and half-nervous (cuz lol he's old and out of shape, and will prolly suck a bit).

Stunned beyond words. LP was my first major musical obsession and pretty much opened the gates for me to alternative music which eventually snowballed into an exploration of everything other than what was served on TV.  It was also the first time I seriously admired the frontman of a band and was so taken with someone's vocals and lyrics. So many memories of overplaying sprees, singing and dancing to them at rock parties, re-watching the Meteora making-of as if it was the most magical thing ever, coming up with dumb parodies of their songs during boring classes, I pretty much can't dissociate my childhood from them and I wouldn't write such corny discourse other than for them. It also makes me very bitter that I missed their concert here some years ago because I was caught up in  stuff that was ultimately not that important in retrospect. Now I'll never get another chance. His poor family tho, I just read he had 6 children. Just painful.

Occasionally I'll have a passage of music playing in my mind on a loop and it won't go away until I figure out where it's from. Usually I'll have an "Aha!" moment within the day or the next couple of days tops and that'll be it. But I'd been trying to figure out this one snippet for years already and couldn't for the life of me. Tried browsing through all the bands that would be inclined to play something like that and came up with nothing. From time to time it would pop up  in my brain and I'd be helpless and exasperated. But tonight I finally got it while revisiting NightingeiL. It was the very beginning of 吊り下げの恋. The curse has finally been lifted damn it.

Looks like the vocalist and guitarist from DIV, Chisa and Shogo, are back with a new band, アクメ/ACME! Their social media handles (Instagram, etc.) appear to have been updated to reflect the new band name.

I do not understand anything anymore.

Now this is more like it, all the other post-Psysalia Toru projects made me want to run for the hills.
Just like Shion's band, this one song doesn't sound so far off the sound Psysalia had crafted, but let's see what else they have in store.
I really hope PPP won't have segregated into seemingly substandard versions of itself.

release is soon!!

@Jigsaw9 Thanks for the heads up! I may be totally broke right now, but! salary day is tomorrow.
Honestly I'm missing the emotional vulnerability and experimentation of Psysalia in these 2 songs, but this IS a different band. I need to lay off the nostalgia glasses.
 

THIS, wtf.
 
Also sounds good so far. Kinda like a dumbed-down garage-rock version of PPP... which I'm totally okay with.  Will try to seek out those releases too~
 
edit: ok, they have the new album on Google Play, brb while I empty my wallet
