Don't even bother. The mods have probably gotten countless reports of her nonsense but they let her run scott free even though its clear she's a problem. If i'm not mistaken, she also got recognized in the MH awards for being one of the top trolls. This just gives her more of an incentive to be a blatant and unnecessary bitch.  Just ignore her and keep it moving. 
 
To stay on topic, before a mod deletes my post for being "off topic" again,
 
The pic is pretty much standard Dir en grey, coolness. Nothing really special to see here. 

Today I will be reviewing Mejibray's latest Installment, 盈虧.
WARNING: THIS IS A DISCLAIMER FOR THOSE WHO ARE EASILY OFFENDED BY HARSH CRITICISM OF MEJIBRAY, SO IF YOU THINK I'M GONNA SAY SOME IGNORANT SHIT, THEN TURN RIGHT BACK AROUND AND GO LISTEN TO KYARY PAMU PAMU OR SOMETHING IDK. MY APOLOGIES IF THIS MAKES YOU HATE ME. lol

https://youtu.be/4qfHZ1b7LCw
inform me on how wrong my wrong opinion is. Eiki is Mejibray's second and last single in their 2 month single consecutive release. Seeing it's recent reception among the forum I felt it was necessary to write this review. As all my other shitty reveiw's go, post your opinion below and inform me on how wrong my wrong opinion is. lol
We'll start with Eiki itself and it's PV.
1.) 盈虧
As being the title track aswell as the PV track eiki is the Second track of this single. (Obviously that much you know, you aren't fucking retarded like me~) This track was uploaded to youtube before it's release just like it's older brother Nepenthes. This track went absolutely nowhere for me and it proves alot of perceptions I have about Mejibray and they way their aesthetic functions. This track although, something new tired by Mejibray impressed me not in the slightest. I was actually quite put off by the blandness and boredom the track gave me. As I said before do not get me wrong I do love Mejibray they just have fallen far from what they used to be, they are such as a roller-coaster, they have high and low points, loop de loops and a part where they pause and do it over and over again. As for the PV all I have to say that it was sprinkled with Mejibray's main spice, the visuals. What with Tsuzuku's pole dancing, to the Enviornment, to the Nicki Minaj looking drag queen's he had by his side.
☆☆☆☆☆ out of ☆☆☆☆☆
2.)人間
Ningen, being the first track was pretty....pretty ugly. Another one of Mejibray's slow generic track where it sounds like Tsu is trying too hard be to sexual with his ehhhh and ahhhh's.
AND THEN THERES TSUZUKU's CHUGGALUG AND THEN IM LIKE LMAO. I'm greeted by a bunch of indistinguishable chugging, and then between it comes Tsu's harmonic voice, the second time around it's stale like old doritos. and then theres that slow "br00741" break down with more chugging to follow. Then Tsu busts in with AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. And it's just at this point where I wanted to tell him to please shut up, but y'know he cant hear me so yeah. This tack was short and bad, like a rabid dog.
☆☆☆☆☆ out of ☆☆☆☆☆ "E FOR EFFORT"
3.) 蜈蚣
LMAO WTF IS THIS? Holy shit Mukade was a side splitter, I couldn't stop laughing while listing to this, it brought me to tears. omg. The Chugging needs serious work,the song is nothing but chugging and whispers, like really mejibray? Really? I know that they could do A WHOLE lot better, just look a At Nepenthes. They have potential they just don't know how to fucking use it. I don't understand why they keep holding back, I dont understand. Like sonic say's "C'MON STEP IT UP".

But hey if you ain't heard it, here http://monochrome-heaven.com/index.php/topic/34904-mejibray-%E7%9B%88%E8%99%A7-eiki-20150506/
If I rated this too harshly for you, or didn't give enough insight on it, tell me below! I'd love you're opinion.

So, Silent Hills apparently isn't happening. .... I'm so enraged right now- All my hopes and dreams - gone! How unbelievably cruel this world is to a poor soul like me.

Sounds pretty okay to me, but nothing that I will remember till next saturday when I am drunk

I laughed my ass of with this one

I actually have all their releases... bought them at their live... be happy that you never heard them... they are the worst!
Even the most demotapes of the most VK bands have better recordings... I am sure these CDs and covers are made by the band themselves...
english is the most poor level I never saw in the lyrics booklet...
yeah... but their live was really really good! so you would get a wrong picture of the band anyway...
(around 20 people were at their live xD)
 
so I hope their new CD will be better and in higher quality

Cant wait to check out this list... your choices are always soo good to try out

funny... its 2014 now

the new intro fits more to their recent mini-album... its more theatric and complex... at least thats what I felt~
the visual post before is absolutley right... kyo looked exactly like that~
and the visual backgrounds were really really stunning
toshiya weared some kind of mask at the nagoya gig... but didnt wear it at tokyo first day
Die was wearing just a tank-top at nagoya, but more fancy at the tokyo gig~
for these who are intrested in some random things i saw:
the merch stuff is redicolously expensive... like T-shirts are 5000¥ and hoodies were arround 8000¥
70% of the merch were already sold out at the last few tour days~
most japanese fans wear diru shirts for their concerts... unlike western people who mostly just wear some random band shirts...
at the nagoya gig... were arround 8 foreigner people... while at tokyo there may have been over 50 gaijns~
kyo smiled at every end of the show... and also interacted with the audience... let em sing some parts... usw~
diru let their fans wait arrround 10 minutes for the encore... which is pretty long (at least it never takes that long at other concers i have been to)
their shows start really on time... may 3-5 minute later than on stated on the ticket
even at big concerts the japanese work with the number system
whixh means uh get some nr when uh buy the ticket...
i guess japan is the only country which can work out with that without problems xD
ah and the new inward screams are totally sick and awesome
thats it

REVIEW & free talking
Calmando Qual “闇を貫く激情の輝き”(Yami o Tsuranuku Gekijou no Kagayaki)



"Your world is an endless universe; nobody can stop you"
The latest Calmando Qual single, created based on their new visual concept. Its tracks carry a message that appeals to the trembling emotions in the space between negative and positive, and a hard sound that will make your heart race! Sharpen your five senses and bring the sixth to life...!

CD Playlist:
01. 闇を貫く激情の輝き (Yami o Tsuranuku Gekijou no Kagayaki)
02. CRUSH!
03. モノクローム ( Monochrome)
04. deep sea

DVD Playlist:
01. 闇を貫く激情の輝き (Yami o Tsuranuku Gekijou no Kagayaki) (PV)

At January 30, 2013 Calmando Qual finally released a new single. This time they give us 3 full songs and one special instrumental song. This time we are introduced again by 2 songs who are composed by Maya. CRUSH! and Deep Sea is his work. Yami o Tsuranuku Gekijou no Kagayaki is composed in a session so the credits goes to everyone. Monochrome is composed by Tak. This single also comes with the PV!

This time we have 2 very powerful songs and 1 song who really will touch everyone’s heart, even those who never listened to Calmando Qual will love the song. Yami o Tsuranuku Gekijou no Kagayaki and CRUSH! are played very powerful, however the meaning behind the lyrics are completely different.

Yami o Tsuranuku Gekijou no Kagayaki: this song has a beautiful message and does tell you to live on no matter what, you should stay at the ground. Also that you should dream and not to forget to smile! The melody is powerful and very Vkei-ish. I really feel that this song also can be liked by those who never ever did try to listen to Calmando Qual. Somehow the melody is perfect the song really does fit. But it’s really a pity that they didn’t make a STORY PV of this song. Could be a wonderful concept for PV.
But more about the PV later.

CRUSH!: The message behind CRUSH! is very different, It’s more an angry song, angry about people who are stupid and who are just copy each other. This lyric is written in a very old style I remember that Hibiki wrote that kind of lyrics in the past. But I really think that Hibiki did do a very good job, the lyric really does fit to the melody of CRUSH! Also Tak and Kenka do also a good job by playing this song once again perfectly. Haha yes also you Maya, good job by making this song. This song would be also perfect to play live! Good way to get the fans dance… ehh Dance?! I mean.. to move!! (lol)

Monochrome: This song, this melody, it’s beautiful. Tak’s way of playing on his guitar really though your heart. Also the words of Hibiki go through your heart, it’s really sung with so many feelings. You really fall in love with this song at the first moment… there are no doubts.
But this song would even fit perfect for a funereal... ehhh? Why? Because the lyric is about; “that words won’t reach someone anymore because he/she sleeps eternity…” however I keep you waiting, I won’t spoil yet. Please read the lyric yourself. So yes, it has perfect melody and also a perfect lyric. A lyric with many pain and suffering… just as the name “Calmando Qual”. This song really makes me cry.

Deep Sea: Actually the concept of this single would be about “Rumble Fish” so SEA/Underwater WORLD or something. This is the SE of the CD. Special song, it's instrumental. However even if a concept is “underwater/sea world” doesn't mean that you need to add underwater sea boat sounds. So that kinda not really though me at all… Tak’s guitar is once again special and beautiful. But it's really a pity that there are so many extra sea sounds are added into this short song, because guitar solos of Tak are always the most beautiful with not much extra added sounds. Or don't you think so Tak?! Also would also be more cool if it had a connection with the first song!

Also what do we got this time?
1 song who tells you to live on and that you should smile and dream!
1 song who kick off your angriness.
1 song who really goes through your heart and let you cry!
1 song who is instrumental and… let you think that you are underwater in the deepest of the sea.

Well before I head on, I really want to add something to Monochrome. Because I’m sure that many people will love this song, I also want to bet that many of you will cry after reading the translation of the lyric!. However I’ve wrote this review long before the release date, so if you read this before the release date then please don’t forget to check my translation after January 30. So keep an eye on my activity! I’ll will notice you when I’ve added the translation.

The Lyric will be posted soon!

Alright let’s go to the PV:
Did everyone watched the PV? What do you think about it? What are your feelings? For me it’s really again a PV with a band standing on the same place just playing and jumping a bit around. Not really enjoyable to watch over and over. I’m someone who really love story PV’s. However since that part can’t though my heart I’m looking at different parts. This time the PV is made by someone who does make VKei PV’s more often by: Akio Yokoyama. And yes I can see it. However I don’t really do like many shots. Of course they are beautiful taken. But for my idea some shots are to near if it was a close up. Or just not far enough away, so that some parts just where cut off the screen. And you also actually see lot of shots of feet and guitar. Also the blurry zooming video effect… it’s a pity! So yeah.. I missed lot of good shots who could be there, but who aren’t sadly there.
But of course it doesn’t make a PV that bad! But it could way more special if there would be a real good concept. So guys please next time go out and make something cool and special!
However it’s for everyone different there are lot of people who really love this kind of concepts. But I’m just not a fan of it. But should I like everything?! However I would love to read your honest opinion about the PV! Because not only my meaning counts! But the meaning of everyone!
So let hear your voice!!!!
Ah… the PV on the DVD is smaller and lesser quality, than the version on youtube. Well, since high quality is on youtube I don’t mind it!

Alright as extra CD design… “Design by Kiwamu” & “Drawings by Hibiki”.
Did you know that the photo who is used is the toilet door of the music studio?! (Fun to know isn’t?)
The design is nicely done. Good way to give the right impression of the single!
It’s a pity that it is a two sided booklet . but I guess I can live with that?!

Alright how many stars I gonna give this single?
Let’s see….

Price: CD 1890 yen – DIGITAL ~€4 $4
I think its a good price. Also for a hard copy.

Single duration:  
16,18 minutes I think it’s a good duration for a single.

PV rating:
You know why, but it's very personal

Favorite song:
Monochrome

Album Art rating:    
If there were no design trapping mistakes I would give it 5 full stars. So actually it is 5 stars

My rating of this album:  
It’s a perfect single, however because of “deep sea” It couldn’t get the full 5 stars .
