lol, what the hell of a difference does it make if he posts all of 'em

Yeah he looks like Tsuzuku and Yuuki, but hey that's the go-to style for frontmen right now I guess.
Even the small amount of blonde underneath haha.

Aoi !

In the mean time here is a screen of RUKI from the PV

^ this is why I don't call vk bands "djent" or "core". Because they usually only take one part of those genres then blend it into their usual sound. They use djent-y riffs and -core breakdowns to spice up their sounds. That doesn't make them djent or metalcore bands in my book.

According to Wiki:
Djent as a style is characterized by progressive, rhythmic, and technical complexity.[7] It typically features heavily distorted, palm-muted guitar chords, syncopated riffs[4] and polyrhythms alongside virtuoso soloing.[2] Another common feature is the use of extended range seven, eight, and nine-string guitars.[

Ya... I still don't get what djent is... As stated above: too many sub genres >_< lol

Listening to/watching their last live I thoguht Ruki had planned to use more growls and screams because their seemed to be a lot more added to that live DVD "ーSaiteigiー". I mean even that scream in the beginning of DIm Scene, which I love, he did the best yet, and the growls on "Before I Decay" I was impressed.

I don't know what Ruki has been doing with his voice...BUT MY GOD KEEP DOING IT! He sounds so much more awesome! This album sounds great so far! Not that I ever doubted them BUT MY GOD! This is some good stuff thus far!

I'm sure you're not taking a diss at me on this for no reason or anyone else who doesn't agree with your opinion. 
 
I'm glad people disagree though.  I don't think Mejibray does albums well as a whole and I actually hated Silvers.EXE. I think they shine with their singles mostly but Nepenthes was an alternate theatrical blue black with bland B-sides and Eiki was creative but really hard to tolerate with those vocals plus the B-sides were not that great. Other than the singles and Mr. rain wa shindafuri, I just didn't like the album as much as the first one though (which isn't saying too much). I'll take a standard good V-Kei album over a creative endeavor that leaves bland results to me (other than the songs mentioned from it above). I shouldn't have to say IMO, but since I'll probably get a slick diss, these are just my opinions. 

I'd say the weakest link currently is Reita. His basslines don't seem to stand out to me that much except the occasional solo.

I really hope opinions move to the review and artist threads. This poor news thread is already overrun. ^^;

I'll be totally honest, at the end of the day I just want him active in some group.
MBHI is a cool experiment, I hate that it looks like it's over.. but then again this project was technically on the shelf since 2008.
 
It would be hilarious if SKULL/KMW would reform after these one-day revivals (like a couple who both start seeing their exes at the same time)
but just god damn it be active in something Taira.
 
MBHI going active is a part of what spurred me back into young VK bands in early 2014.
 
I remember Lynch.'s GALLOWS dropped in April and with Lynch being one of the few veteran bands that I still followed closely from high school days and thus hyping the release so much I was left with a big void feeling how stark and impersonal it was (not to bash that album, I stil enjoy it for what it is) I knew that yester-decade's VK bands alone weren't doing it for me and somehow between becoming irresponsibly into MEJIBRAY and the activation of MBHI, I became closer with small new bands than the older ones.
 
I might not have become active on MH if it weren't for this period ^
 
Anyway moral of the story, VK just means a bit more to me when Tenten is involved I think it will always be this way.. This kind of makes me want to listen to nothing today lol

Sad, but maybe Kiss My Way is coming back
Maybe because he likes music and sing?

The GazettE were featured on Metal Injection six days ago, how the fuck did I miss this?
"THE GAZETTE's New Song Is Japan's Answer To Bands Like KATATONIA" - Metal Injection
I still haven't heard OMINOUS, but as a Katatonia fan, an article name like that inspires confidence.
