After around 2 years and 3 weeks i finally finished copying all my 1100+ Cds to my PC.
I don't even know what to do with my newly won free time... XD
-
Oh well here we go again...
Live houses opened and immediately Bands announce new Live Limited Stuff. It sucks ass to be back at this again but i totally understand it since its the best way to draw an audience to your lives.
Although i gotta admit when it comes to being total "collector scum" like some People call it, its always an amazing feeling to score some live Limited Stuff.
Also it felt kinda depressing even as an oversea fan when you see some Vk Band opening up some Webshop where they sell a Live Limited CD and still they aren't even able to sell 10 copies within a week.
Made me wonder how there can be so many Vk Bands around when probably 70% barely make any Profit off of it.
Anyway done with the rant... 😅
-
I agree with Zeus that it doesn't bother me as much. Most bands I still listen to have stopped doing them, and now I just avoid new bands that do. Keeps me in a bubble, but it's a wallet-saving bubble~

Definitely agree about the wallet saving thing and in general thats probably the smartest thing one can do but unfortunately that doesn't Work for me since i'm a huge sucker for new Bands... XD

This just sounds ridiculously brutal!
Always kinda mind baffling how such a band only has 137 views on this video and only 17 subscribers...
-
ITS OFFICIAL!! Deviloof = most violent, brutal and intense Vk band EVER!! no clean vocals at all and Nightmare is even more brutal than Ruin! *I'm in blastbeat and breakdown heaven*
-
Deviloof - PURGE = ORDERED ;D
-
Awesome!

listening to some old gems in remembrance of the old era of heavy Vk and damn CIVIL were perfect! although they only released one maxi single in 2011 they had so much potential - love the vocalists super mumbly harsh VoKills.
-
just noticed while having a look at バラライカ's booklet that it says: "Recording, Mixing and Masterring: eve" - I instantly was like: THAT EVE!? but since AvelCain is almost done i guess he moved on so pretty interresting to know i imo...
-
Ah, according to his site he did the mixing on a couple 3rd Birthday singles.... so I guess he's been hanging out with them a while.

just watched DADAROMA's pv for 造花とカラシニコフ and i must say its a pretty awesome song and since because of the pv preview it seemed like the song is a ballade i can assure... its not!
...song has some screaming + growling, a few (although short) blastbeats, a beastly breakdown a nice guitar solo... like really a great song overall!
-
just made a fantastic deal on some sick rare Osaka located bands live limited CDs - 2017 couldn't start any better! 8D
-
today i went on another Vk "nostalgia-trip" including NAINE, B.C and DELACROIX and fuck - they were such incredible phenomenal bands!!!!!!
-
PATHALOGICAL NEOHYSTERIA's first rec is my fave DELACROIX song

back from tokyo for about 5 weeks now but because of constantly new incoming CDs i still have around 30 lying in my shelves to listen to - wish it could be like that forever! XD
-
That's how many I brought back with me from my 2 week trip. If I was there another week, I probably would have needed to buy another suitcase *just for CDs* XD
-
VkBrutaliaN reacted to this
-
i know that feeling just too good! ;D
the last 2 times where i was in tokyo with my wife we really bought a new suitcase every time!! XD
because we always buy way to much and because compared to what we find here they have the best quality in japan from what it seems...

usually once i didn't listen to a CD anymore in a couple of months i deleted them from my hard drive... now i thought its better to keep them on my hard drive none the less which means... ...still over 800 CDs to copy again to my PC ~ FML!! it'll take months until i got everything back copied to my PC.. >.>''
-
I did the same thing with my iPod. I've had it for over a decade now and decided at my last job that I would play the thing on shuffle. If I skipped a song, it wasn't worth keeping the album (with some exceptions) and it helped me really weed out my music collection of things I've grown out of.
I would suggest investing in a portable hard drive, though, and just use that to only store up your music. Back it up once a month and you'll slowly get your library back in order.

i once had a portable hard drive but it got fucked up and everything was lost (back in the era were i downloaded like 90% which is years ago) but for now my tactic is just go through my shelf which is in order from A-Z and i'll get to every single CD and copy it on my PC - once that is done i'll do one more copy of everything to an external hard drive in hope it won't fuck up again...
actually i never wanted to do it but since my driving teacher and my wife told me that CDs don't necessarily hold forever i was like: hm maybe you should keep everything digitally saved jsut in case... since it could be that certain CDs won't play anymore after a couple of years although they have no scratches but also you can have luck and they hold a lifetime... - you never know...

-
i know many will hate me for this but damn - my guilty pleasure for days now... - sounds so good ~
-
before i started listening to Vk acts about 10 years ago i despised everything electronic within music and nowadays i LOVE electronic stuff in music especially Vk like in DictavE, TweiT, NAINE, L.A bash all the emotions, etc.
THANKS Vk for being that AWESOME!!! ;D
-
DictavE I like as well. I only managed to get the stuff after the original singer left. Penance Stare was really good. L.A bash all the emotions I really like now. I ordered Get FxxK Hxx, and I really want So What? That song is my current favorite of theirs, especially the breakdowns after the 1 2 drop the bass. Too bad immortal spit is going to be hard to find, since they took it off their YouTube channel.
-
VkBrutaliaN reacted to this
-
oh then you should definitely by all means get DictavE's latest minialbum. the reason why i even wrote all this was because i am so in LOVE with the beat of the song "Pendelum"!! 8D
agreed - the breakdown in So What? is fucking sick!!! i almost was able to get a copy but unfortunately when i friend of mine went to a live of theirs in tokyo he told me that they didn't had any CDs which sucked ass... >.> but sometimes it is really just too strange with live limited CDs of such small indie bands...
i remember when i first saw DictavE live with their original vocalist they only had 3 live limited CDs and when i went to their buppan i bought all 3 of them and shortly after me a japanese girl went to their buppan to buy a CD and they just told her its SOLD OUT. and i was just like: WTF?!? why did they only bring 1 copy of each CD to their live but oh well it worked out for me since i was the very first person at their buppan luckily and since the girl was japanese i am sure she could've bought whatever CD she wanted at a later live... XD
and because of L.A bate's CD So What? because they joined starwave records i am still hoping they eventually they'll sell their CD at some later point at their official webshop like for example when FIXER joined starwave records they also all of a sudden started selling 2 of their latest live limited singles via their official webshop so fingers crossed! ;D
-
Oh I bought their latest mini XD I’m waiting on shipping it with my tenso order since I preordered off of puresound; should be here in a week so I’m excited! That’s crazy XD I guess they thought they weren’t going to sell any that night. I remember yoyaku for a band through their website and specially asked if they can bring a copy of their latest CD(since it was live limited) and they completely forgot and I had to go to the next live to buy it, pretty sure they purposely did that cause I ended buying 10 Cheki instead. I’m hoping for that too for L.A bate. And give immortal spit a proper release too.

lately i was wondering why people even bother buying limited editions inlcuding a DVD nowadays...
i mean sure if you are a hardcore collector or there is only one version with DVD then OK i get it but if you buy the version with the DVD you only have "bad" quality on your own TV whilst if watching their pv on yt you can watch it in HD and therefore in much better quality...
-
...that feeling of relieve when you listen outside music via headphones and all of a sudden you think like: fuck someone behind me is probably shouting at me...
but then it turns out it was just a spoken word passage in the song you've never noticed before... XD
-
I always use headphones when I'm outside, so people sometimes think I'm just being rude when I don't respond to them until they notice. Nowadays, everyone just waves their hand in front of my face if they want my attention X)
This meme is basically me:
-
Literally me every day listening to llll-ligro- & Morgue/Noulla

Gesu and VkBrutaliaN reacted to this
-
yea it also happens to me a lot when i am walking around with headphones that people just try to ask me something and i only notice it because they look at me and i see their mouth is moving and i mostly always just think like: hey i'm listening to music if you haven't noticed so why don't you ask the person next to me... must be either because i look so charismatic * ;D * or they are just plain stupid...
-
-
Because i felt like it i've posted 1 song from the DEXCORE×NAZARE split in the "Requests" forum. (didn't know where else to put it)
So if you are interested to listen to it go watch it since i'll delete it within roughly 48 hours...
-
@o0sofuck0oif i remember correctly you can few it only if you have at least 100 posts made on here...
-
I am very glad there will be a new forum with J-ROCK ONE to continue what MH was known for.
But honestly as of now i dunno if i will continue to contribute like here or if i'll just visit as a guest or so called lurker frequently.
therefore just in case, until i know what i wanna do, if anyone wants to keep in touch for trades etc. feel free to do so on twitter @VkBrutaliaN
-
^ Thanks, i feel honored to hear that! XD

anyone else who got problems with playing twitter videos lately?
-
hm.... i was just wondering because normally i could play them all without any problem but since last friday it doesn't work anymore... also on my mobile phone it doesn't work - it just says like "the medium couldn't be played"... kinda sucks bcuz especially nowadays where a lot of Vk bands upload twitter "exclusive" videos..
-
today i was at zepp tokyo and i saw R指定/アルルカン/DIAURA/DEZERT/NOCTURNAL BLOODLUST/MEJIBRAY and all of them were AMAZING live!
got myself a pretty sick looking towel of NOCTURNAL BLOODLUST which they haven't even listed at the "goods" section on their OHP.
but as good the lives were the reality hit pretty hard after the concert. cuz while leaving the hall and going back to the station it was like curb crawling.
like srsly at least 10-15 indies Vk bandguys trying to hand out flyers after the concert to promote themselfes and because i and my wife obviously don't look like japanese we were totally ignored cuz logigally we aren't the main target they aim for... japanese young girls...... - OUCH! that hurt my heart a tiny little bit tonight....^^°
-
DAMN - although it's still about 4 hours until DIMLIM's first ONEMAN starts on their OHP it says since yesterday that their first minialbum "VARIOUS" is already SOLD OUT!!
luckily i already pre-ordered my copies otherwise i'd be fucked.... XD
*so hopefully they don't mess up the pre-orders*
-
here's the latest addition to my Vk room! and you gotta agree no matter if you like or dislike アヴァンチック but this looks just AMAZING - especially in real life because of the 3D effect. although you can't see on the picture...
took me around 3 hours of work today XD
-
in less then 2 hours Deviloof will show their new bandlogo and maybe also some other infos - SUPER EXCITED!!! 8D
-
Current status of my Vk-room = good 90% done!
so the roomtour should be filmed by the end of january finally. ;D
-
That's gonna be epic I'm sure considering your collection.
