  1. Please vote for any of these, I adore the main photo right now but one member isn't visible on there in the library. And this one:
  2. Even if she were allowed to, she wouldn't want to return to this place because of the provocative messages sent toward her all the time.

    Early MEJIBRAY, for those releases were nothing other than absolutely solid — I don't have an opinion left about their recent behaviour, however. For Royz, I haven't ever developed a great interest in them and remember perhaps one or two early songs from when they were just beginning to get popular like eve:r and α. I am not familiar with their recent works so quite honestly I do not have so much of an opinion about them at all but I at least expect their recent releases to be much better than MEJIBRAY's. Perhaps I should give them a go again.
  4. My father and stepmother enjoy D, Versailles and Malice Mizer (and Kamijo and Gackt solo) whenever I put any of those on, they recognize members and songs but other than that they wouldn't listen to any of it for themselves. My mother and stepfather aren't interested in Visual Kei at all, they think it's odd that I listen to Japanese music whilst not being able to understand most of it, and they're more or less the types to joke about it, especially the bands' looks. About my siblings, I don't have the slightest clue whether they are aware or not.
  5. My sister is marrying in less than two weeks and I am developing all sorts of physical issues. Why is this happening now?

      Good luck, I don't know your issues and can't imagine how it feels, but hopefully you can enjoy the banquet afterwards, I always love those.

      I generally don't enjoy food so that's a no for me.

      I don't eat at them, just fun to hear the speeches, see people get drunk, dance, etc...

    Can you consider that for instance, in @ishiki's case, an entire school's company has issues like this? Including teachers, janitors, parents of the students, etc.? This means that only a select group of people worldwide initially has at least a neutral perspection of this world, meaning they are of good nature and mean no harm whatsoever, until they get bullied, and that the rest of them (the attacking group, consider this almost the entire world population when we go by your reasoning, ) are bullies and people of low worth by nature? It must mean that the greatest percentage of this world's population is purely evil and closeminded (the latter I won't argue about, however, as this is entirely true). Usually it has nothing to do with the bully's self-esteem or self-worth. These are likely perfectly fine, as people like this usually have tons of good friends and solid relationships, and the bullying solely exists because these people will have themselves to praise once they prove they can control someone. People always seek differences from themselves and feel an insisting need and pressure to point other people on these differences. This cannot be done subtly, subtleness in pointing someone on their "mistakes" simply does not exist. The victim will always feel attacked, will always feel undermined no matter what strength someone persists they bear within themselves. The reaction that is caused is what triggers bullies to continue; they have an effect on someone — and negatively affecting someone is much easier than positively affecting someone. Especially during highschool, it's a challenge to succumb to emotional situations that involve positivity or even a neutral state of mind regarding a certain issue, or person. It is much easier to bear a grudge against someone, to point out what is unlikeable about their clothes, their hair, their manner of speech, or their interests, especially if these are particularly different from what the usual trench of teenagers prefers. You must wear brand clothing, you must enjoy the modern day music (pop, hip hop and r&b only, anything that hasn't appeared in the charts is an abomination), you must be willing to gossip and talk badly of other people, you must drink, smoke, have lots of unprotected sex, and possibly even enjoy other narcotics, and partying until you'll either end up passed out in someone's bathroom or even in the hospital is required at least once or twice in a lifetime. I have learnt that anything that strays from this behaviour is not accepted — or at least you'll end up with fewer friends and acquaintances because you would not fit into the widely accepted flock of sheep because you'll have nothing in common with those people. Today's generation is especially bad, surely bullying has existed throughout mankind's entire existence but it hasn't come to the surface as strongly as it has in the past two decades. Bullies cannot be taught otherwise. Selfishness is in our nature and it will never leave our system. The only thing we can do about it is improve our mental healthcare as something to crash upon after an extended period has passed, as bully-awareness does nothing to schools or work-environments. It cannot be stopped, it cannot be solved by any organization or a grand speech by great speakers. Bullying is, and will always remain a taboo, no matter how much the issue is pressed upon from time to time,
  7. They do have guts to basically copy DOGMA's trailer. 'Mini alubum' though.
  8. Slivers.exe was especially solid. Messiah.bat was probably their last decent release after they began to stumble over themselves time and time again.
  9. Another rushed release with hardly a break after their last flop, sigh.
  10. Why did Yuu retire from the music scene? I want to hear you drumming again, sob.

  11. Lestat

    Sure I'll be there.
  12. Lestat

    It's sad that you think that eventually resorting to violence is the solution to putting someone in their place. I hope no one will ever fall for you.
  13. Lestat

    I have never said this about the GazettE, but I am so ready for this.
  14. @shinobu., your copy had better arrive soon : D
  15. Lestat

    You should just wish everyone a happy unbirthday then, that works.

    D'oh. My iPhone's frontal camera seems to be deteriorating.
  17. Photos of food are disgusting.

    1. Des

      Des

      AGREED. I don't know why people choose to share photos of food so often.

    2. Lestat

      Oh my god, finally someone who agrees with me. All these greasy and oily photos, really, shove off.

  18. Lestat

    Please get a room.

    Treating your partner like any common item surely won't improve your chances of having a relationship, just saying...

    Growing up in a household where one would typically hear an arsenal of native Dutch music, I hadn't had much of an impression of what rock was. Sure, I might have stumbled upon a few certain names on music channels (the period where MTV was actually a music channel), but other than that I suppose I was too young to allow any music stick to me for a longer period of time. My Dad did have some Deep Purple records, but he wouldn't ever play them out loud and generally sat in a corner with his headphones on, listening to his vinyls as my Mom didn't appreciate this all that much. It wasn't until my parents separated (me at the mere age of eight) that I was introduced to hard rock. Both my step-parents (they were a couple as well, my parents basically partner-switched with them) were fond of bands like Aerosmith, Guns N' Roses, AC/DC, Scorpions, etc., and it quickly became obvious that I had found my musical taste due to their influence. While I was still a young teen, I did usually prefer the more obvious groups in the realm of Green Day and My Chemical Romance as it seemed more modern to this age, but progressively I delved deeper and deeper into whatever 80's formations I could find. I've spent a lot of years on glam-and sleaze rock forums and soon I believed I had completed discographies of the most underground of underground of glam rock bands. Of course, there were times where I strayed from this path. Thrash metal, death metal, black metal, you name it and I've probably had phases where I couldn't stop listening to any of these. I've been to a bulk load of festivals and gigs, very often partying right along with fairly big names during afterparties and whatsoever. Phases have certainly been a big part of my musical taste. There was a time where I didn't listen to anything but metalcore and deathcore either, but this has slinked down to a very few select favourites. A reintroduction to X JAPAN was likely where my love for Visual Kei emerged. I had known of them since years because they'd simply fit into the glam rock scene and I never even had an idea of what the term "Visual Kei" meant until I've befriended someone during highschool who was in over her head on Versailles and explained me that X JAPAN has an entirely different status in the music world as well. My first 'real' Visual Kei favourites were D and Versailles. I fell in love with the aesthetics and storylines in their music and that's supposedly where this root of my tastes has sprouted.

    I think someone recommended me this website because of how there were downloads on here you couldn't find elsewhere.
