Forgot to mention Better then Raw being my another favourite albums. One of their most straightforward ones. Thanks for the reminder 😄 I went to Pumpking United live in Warsaw back in 2017, and Kai Hansen rocked the crowd with "Ride the Sky" and "Heavy Metal is the Law". I still agree it's kinda sad nothing has been going in with Gamma Ray. How long it's been since Empire on The Undead? New Years Eve with Kai Hansen? Oh, man, that's awesome! 🤩 I am a CD collector myself and I own most of Helloween albums with Deris and I even have a Keeper Part 1 copy on a casette tape. Also kinda off-top, but did you know Kai's son, Tim, is playing in a band called Induction? Kai Hansen even sang in one of the songs in the last year's debut album

Let's talk about one of the biggest titans of melodic power metal - Helloween! Or as I like to call them in a joking manner: X-Germany! Or maybe X Japan is the Japanese Helloween? Who knows?! Rocking since 1984, he band has went through a lot of changes from raw and agressive Walls of Jericho, to speedy and humorous iconic Keeper of the Seven Keys duo with Kiske on vocals, ending at modern sounding albums with Andi Deris, that is in the band to this day. My personal favourite albums aside Keepers, are Master of the Rings, Dark Ride and Straight out of Hell. I think their current Pumpkins United era with Deris, Kiske and Hansen performing together is an absolute win! I've often heard Helloween plans to make an album with all three vocalists. Although this has been promised since the late 2017, hope it eventually gonna happen 😄 Any other Pumpkinheads here on MH?

I've just finished the good old Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Not for the first time, though, just to refresh the memories There's a HD mod to be released on Steam very soon. If you already onw it on Steam it's for free. And I know it's going to be badass! Other than than I'm awaiting for Ghostrunner and CoD: Black Ops Cold War!

Technically it was a retweet, not a response, but here we go! Last year I've drawn a digital artwork inspired by latest Gyze's album "Asian Chaos". As I posted it on Twitter, Ryoji has liked and retweeted it. To this day I can't describe how honoured I felt 🤩

The title may look a bit confusing. Just for clarification "Kentaro" is my artist nickname that I use on social media. I've derived it from Gargoyle guitarist, Kentaro Yokota. I just happened to come up with it after I joined MH 😅 Anyway, I'm just a furry artist. My artstyle is inspired from Disney and Chuck Jones, but recently I've been thinking about implementing some manga elements to it. I do digital art (mostly Paint Tool SAI and recently CSP), as well as traditional (promarkers), just need do more the later ones. I actually wanted to share my art here many years ago, but I just felt I wasn't good enough. And my drawings from back then looked nothing like I do today. Now my skills improved a lot, so you can enjoy it now! 😄 For now most of my art is made of furries, but I'm trying to practice humans as well, as I genuinely wanna draw some J-rockers and J-metallers! 😎 Also my DeviantArt: https://www.deviantart.com/kentaroflamepaw

I saw Band Maid live in Warsaw way back in 2016. Great to see they're still around kicking ass! January? Well, looks like I already have my 1st album of 2021 to look forward 😁

Anchang from Sex Machineguns

W sumie mogę się ponownie udzielić, bo czemu nie. Skoro mówimy o gustach, jakieś 10 lat temu sam siedziałem w Visual Kei, moimi faworytami były The Gazette, Dir en Grey, D'espairsRay, Sadie, Girugamesh. Po czym jakoś wypadłem z obiegu i przeniosłem się na japoński heavy metal (Loudness, X-Japan, Anthem, Seikima-II, Sex Machineguns itp). Aczkolwiek z ostatnich lat z VK mocno podobają mi się Defspiral i Nocturnal Bloodlust. Jeśli ktoś zna inne teraźniejsze zespoły w tych klimatach, jestem otwarty na rekomendacje! 😃 Szkoda że nas Polaków tu tak mało, bo można by było zrobić np. jakąś grupę Discordową. Jakby ktoś chciał ze mną popisać, to zapraszam 🙂

Ryoji Shinomoto - Vocals, Lead Guitar Shuji Shinomoto - Drums Aruta Watanabe - Bass, Backing Vocals SHINKAI - Guitar, Music Sequencer Haven't seen any general threads about artists in the past few months, so why not bring it back? 😄 I'd love to bring up one of the greatest Japanese metal acts of the last few years, namely Gyze. I've got to know Gyze way back in 2017. They played as a support for Battle Beast and "Northern Hell Song" album was brand new at the time. I remember even speaking along with my friends with Ryoji, Shuji and Aruta after the show. One hell of a good moment to practice my language skills 😃 My favourite album of theirs would be Asian Chaos, because of traditional Japanese feel to it. That felt like breath of fresh air to me. Eventhough this is their only album I own physically, I still plan to buy the remaining three. While I not really into death metal, but damn, Gyze is an absolute exception. Thier approach to melodeath is just beautiful! Here are some of my favourite songs:

2009 was 10 years ago? No, wait, 11! The days when I was a newbie to Visual Kei and Japanese music in general. And over those years I've became a huge enthusiast 😄 Aside that, Gazette's Dim, Lynch's Shadows and Girugamesh "Music" (it's from '08 but still) do really take me back! Other than that I'd add: Sex Machineguns - 45° (when I've heard SMG for the first time with プライド song, when it was brand new THE冠 - 傷だらけのヘビーメタル 44 Magnum - S/T Outrage - S/T

Sex Machineguns shirt, L size. After being a huge SMG fan for 11 years, at last I have it! Bought it via proxy service that managed to import it to Poland! Highly reccommend for some rares, if you have enough money saved up

Too bad the picture links on the thread got broken, but I did went to your page. Awesome art and unique style, bro! Will look forward for more! 💪

My last concert this year was Crossfaith in Hydrozagadka venue in Warsaw. February to be specific, before covid broke. And probably, the last one in 2020 😔 But I'll never forget the awesomeness and waiting an hour to have photo with Kenta and Teru! 🤩

Katuję na okrągło nową płytę Sex Machineguns

Dir en Grey in Progresja, Warsaw were amazing as ever. The only problems, it felt like it ended too fast and Kyo barely have made any contact with audience. Still awesome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7Bi31Rv-7Q

A bit late news, but the album cover and tracklist finally got revealed. 10 songs in total, including two re-recordings, Metal Venture Man and sone other song probably used for some kind of pachinko game. 1. みかんのうた (Re-Recording 2018) 2. BURNING FIRE 3. バイキンの逆襲 4. うなぎの王様 5. ネイチャーパワー 6. コインランドリーサンドマン 7. NO サーモン 8. CRUSH クリスマス 9. メタルベンチャーマン 10. German Power (Re-Recording 2018)

Returned from Diru live in Warsaw yesterday. Overall it was awesome, fans were jumping and headbanging like crazy 😃 My only two problems was that the live felt too short, despite a good setlist and Kyo didn't seem to have such a contact with audience, like Loudness did. But back to the topic, am I the only one who thinks that Die looked badass the most?

It's been comfirmed that one of the greatest modern day J-metal legends are releasing a new 12th album called "Iron Soul" in November 28th. Further info soon to be revealed. http://sexmachineguns.smg-fire.com/?p=782

Super! ^w^ W razie czego będę w koszule Loudness

Pozwolę sobie wskrzesić temat, bo czemu nie? Ktoś może jeszcze wybiera się na Diru do Wawy?

For now I'm listening to the album on Spotify waiting for my physical copy to arrive. Ordered it from CD Japan, in early August, so hope I won't have to wait for it as long as for The Kanmuri's recent CD 😐 Back to the topic, I'm liking Keibetsu no Hajimari, Rubbish Heap, Utafumi. Also Keigaku no Yoku and the way how it starts calm and slowly progresses into total fury. Plus, what be a Diru album without a more mellow song, like Aka or Ranunculus? Overall, I've noticed ever since TMOAB came out, Diru has been putting out aggressive and calmer albums in turns. Uroboros had their fair share of heavy and soft, melodic songs. DSS was dominated by much harder and rocking songs, save for Lotus and Vanitas (which even were the highlights in my book). Arche was in some ways similar to Uroboros, with more Kyo's clean singing and even progressive songs. And now we have Insulated World, which leans on the heavier side again Anyone else has that feeling?

Just watched the video. Not only the song is very upbeat, it's their first song entirely in English, or should I say: Engrish. Odd video setting and Nawo's costume just add ore awesomeness. Still the good old Maximum the Hormone we all know and love 😊 And the end there's an announcement of the new single on Novemver 2018. Quite funny how it abrupts at the end, then "around" kanji gets written 😃 One thing is sure: MtH is not dead!!!

A bit of photos, a bit of artworks https://www.instagram.com/kacper_takasaki/?hl=pl

Damn, I forgot how much I loved MtH and how I saw them live way back in 2011. Gotta listen to their good old albums right now 😊 Back to the topic, I have the 3rd deja vu feeling, but it's not directly written that Nawo's going to have another child. Wonder if are they ever going to produce any new material. Six years passed between Buikikaesu and Yoshuu Fukushuu. Now it's another 6 since Yoshuu dropped. Anyway, wishing then the best in their family life 😊
