Always the same with him. Love him as a guitar player (and dude can write!), but he never manages to stay in a band for long. Would love to see 手鞠 colaborating with 匠.
Or, or, ナオキ… damn, that would be nice.

UPDATE:
BY-SEXUAL REUNION IS A GO YET AGAIN! Whaaaat?! I thought the 2011 reunion was supposed to be the last, LAST concert they would ever play.
かまいたち reunion, again!

and a couple more.

For sure anyone can play this, but I heard that they aren't allowed to play certain songs. For example X Japan isn't allowed to play any of their new material
THANK GOD FOR THAT! That only makes the deal sweeter.
Hah, 40,000 JPY is looking like a steal right now (not really, but HOLY CRAP!)

MUCC, シド and some other DANGER CRUE bands that no one really cares confirmed. Hopefully, some 絶望 is coming our way. And it wouldn't hurt to see シド whip out 循環 and some oldies from 憐哀.

MOMENTO OLIMPÍADA
É ouro, porra! Finalmente!
Menino Ney é cabuloso mermo.
FIM DO MOMENTO OLIMPÍADA, OBRIGADO!

I LOVED their latest album. It's beautiful. Hopefully, they'll keep that direction.

Feels SO cool to have 'em back.

I really want a cyberpunk-era BUCK-TICK revival. I think it's time.

wonder if any other bands will join them. D'ERLANGER and DEAD END are a must.
I *think* I can get tickets when I arrive in Japan. Who knows!
If not, I'll ask someone else to do it and pay it via PayPal or something. Damn tickets will only be sold to the general public in September!

It will cost an arm and a leg, but I think I`ll go to all three dates. Seeing LUNA SEA has been a life-long dream. Plus, GLAY and X and, who knows who else.
Hopefully some other cool older bands will join the bill to make it even more special.

They look freakin' great and the song is fun. Maybe I should pay attention to these guys!

That one is awesome. Have you seen this one, tho?

01. 葬ラ謳
Undisputably, their best piece of work.
02. 痛絶
03. アンティーク
04. 朽木の灯
There was a lot about this one that I didn't love when it came out back then. But the years have made me wiser and now I'm able to appreciate the incredible amount of energy and emotion that it contains. 朽木の塔 has some of the most incredible ムック moments ever laid on tape.
05. 是空
06. 6
Great comeback!
07. 鵬翼
Underrated. Very influenced by japanese folk, I can see why some fans might be turned off.
08. 志恩
09. 球体
10. 極彩
11. 哀愁
12. T.R.E.N.D.Y. -Paradise from 1997-
13. THE END OF THE WORLD
14. シャングリラ
15. カルマ
The last three are some the weakest efforts by MUCC. But you can't be great forever. Even if everything they do from now on sucks, we'll always have the early material. Plus, they kill live.
Also, some of their early singles are incredibly better than some of the later albums (and better than 哀愁). Namely, 負ヲ讃エル謳.

Good, it only took them 30 years too late. Dudes have been relying on outside writers for over 3 fucking decades. A shame for the band that once created Rocks and Toys in the Attic.

This is another important point. TOO. MANY. SONGS. This is one of the problems of CD releases. Not just in Japan (who is a big offender) but with music in general. Just because you have up to 70 mins. to use, it doesn't mean that you HAVE to use it. And, with a band like DADAROMA, it just means that you're stuck with a bunch of songs that sound too much alike.

Hey!...
千聖 is there.

This was my first real contact with DADAROMA and... I'm far from being impressed. There are some great moments here and there and potential great songs that ALMOST deliver, but fizzle.
For exemple, 最終電車 had the potential to be insanely great if DADAROMA only knew the meaning of the word "restraint". It's supposed to be this sexy number but ends up becoming almost like a parody. That first minute is so good (sultry, mysterious), but then, of course, they throw it all away when they decided to imitate the worst moments of Janne Da Arc's quasi-shuffle numbers like BLACK JACK.
Also, what's up with their shitty horn section (trumpet, mainly) sample? And why on earth they weren't able to find some better sounding stuff to include on モルヒネ#1, モルヒネ#2 and 最終電車? It drives me up the wall! Fuck that shitty, cheap-ass early 90s CASIO keyboard sound!
Good moments: The Manson-esque SEX!!, some parts of ルシッド・ドリーム and some parts of 溺れる魚, I guess. There's not much here that interests me. Yeah, it's one of those albums that almost hits the right spot but fails to deliver, EVERY SINGLE TIME. Sorry, I guess these guys just aren't for me.

For 黒夢: if you dig classic V系 you start with 亡骸を..., then 生きていた中絶児 and 中絶.
Get 迷える百合達 if you want a more accessible, major-era, sound.
If you dig glossy pop-rock with tons of hooks and smart songwriting and musicianship you go for feminism (my personal favorite).
If you dig punk, then CORKSCREW is the way to go and then move to Drug TReatment and FAKE STAR. FAKE STAR also works if you're looking for a bridge between the glossy pop sound and punk.
sads:
Can't go wrong with SAD BLOOD ROCK’N ‘ROLL, BABYLON and THE ROSE GOD GAVE ME. After that the songwriting gets kinda weak. Still enjoyable, but not as cool as it was in those first records.
Solo 清春: either poetry or MELLOW, I think.

Start from the beginning and work your way up to Romance of Scarlet. Then you stop, and repeat the last step. RoS was the epitome of their career. Shin left shortly after the next album, and their music never recovered.And miss feminism? Haha, no way. That's like missing the most delicious dessert on the menu. FAKE STAR is also mighty cool.

Huge fan here. Love hide and his legacy.
PSYENCE is a classic and HIDE YOUR FACE is one hell of a cool record too. His stuff just sounded so vibrant and cool. Like he was two or three years ahead of anyone else. At the same time, he had enough pop sensibilities to churn out some amazing hit songs. Killer backing band as well.

Hold You Softly and Day Dream are also great. I don't know why but Craze never really did it for me.
Try watching one of their DVDs, always incredible live. Tetsu beats the shit out of his kit every time.

I don't think there will be any other replies, so might just well say that, even though they had some few cool songs (especially MY SELF, that one is killer!), it's the worst CIPHER and Tetsu project out there. STILL MY LOVE is a complete stinker and so is BABY, CRAZY and BELIEVE.
The story about the problems with the mixing and the infighting rumours are probably true; the drums and guitar are mixed waaay too high, while the vocals on FLAME sound they were taken from a cheap demo! The FLAME REMIX corrects most of the problems with the mix, but there are others, like the songwriting quality, that can't be fixed easily.
I do love the CRAZE version of I LOVE YOU. I think every CRAZE vocalist sang that one, but I love TUSK's version. They also played MY SELF quite a bit, especially during the first couple of years of CRAZE and later went back playing it when TUSK joined as well.
BUCK-TICK new album "アトム 未来派 No.9" release

Their latest album was their best since 2005, it was really impressive to see that BUCK-TICK still had it. Good to see that they are still hungry. I really, REALLY want see them live.
