    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

      I've always respected and agreed with what you had to say and most of your taste in music. Haha!

    Does anyone know who the new guitarists are that replaced Lin (ex-NOCTURNAL BLOODLUST) ?

      When they released the first of their digital singles, they did say they'd announce the new guitarist's soon ... and then never did.

    I woke up to ELLEGARDEN playing a campfire acoustic live on YouTube. I did not expect to cry at 7:30 in the morning listening to "make a wish" acoustic. That song's somber tone really comes out when played acoustically.

    1. patientZERO

      patientZERO

      They only played like 10 songs and talked a lot, but since it was in the middle of the woods, they were pretty quiet and I couldn't understand much. Hopefully they post it after. I'll keep you posted if I see it pop up.

    alright folks, in your personal opinion what is the WORST vk release you've ever heard

      Without the obvious Maria Cross mention, or super indie stuff that's produced in their bedrooms, this whole band is just ... fucked.

    Imagine if outdoor Visual Kei concerts were still a thing

      DEVILOOF and Tensai did an outside concert (kinda) in Amemura in Osaka, where they played in an open area behind where a billboard usually is.

    I'm going to lose my mind ... iTunes did this thing where it would just randomly decide to end tracks imported into the library and move to the next track. Somehow, people figured out how to fix this, by playing the song for a fraction of a second, then closing deleting the track and re-importing it. Some dude created a script to do this for you and it seemed to work like a charm.

    Now I've updated my macbook to Catalina and iTunes doesn't exist anymore, thus replaced by the Music app. So now the script doesn't work and now everything I put in my library does the same thing. I'm losing my shit ... nothing I add to my library will play properly.

      They think they're making it easier to integrate things to your iphone, but honestly it seems to be getting worse and worse with every "update."

    if vk strays into kpop boy band territory and idol kei becomes a thing, then i'm done with vk

    1. patientZERO

      patientZERO

      Judging by the lyrics of that one band that just got posted, there's no way in hell they're serious. It's definitely parody, which happens to be the hotness in VK as well, so they're killing two popularity birds with one shit music stone.

      When they originally formed, they said their name was a portmanteau of devil and proof. They're one of my favorite bands, but it's still a goofy name.

    Seiya needs to stop spending so much time recording Deviloof play through videos and more time writing new music. Dude, you left the band and now it is time to move on.

    1. patientZERO

      patientZERO

      My guess is that he probably moved to Tokyo or away from Osaka, where Deviloof is located, hence leaving the band. But that's entirely conjecture. Regardless, the dude needs to focus on the future.

      Oh shit! I didn't know he had another album coming out. I don't like K-pop, but a fan recommended his first mixtape like four years ago and I really liked it.

    I was following the messages in the chat box and @Tokage wrote a candy that left me thinking about the % of male users and female users here in the forum 🤔

      I've had people on this forum guess my gender and even my race ... based on forum comments alone. It's ridiculous.

    Maybe if I listen to Lime's voice enough I'll get used to it. 🤔💁‍♂️

    1. patientZERO

      patientZERO

      I've tried that. His voice doesn't bother me as much as the fact that 99% of songs they layer his voice with so much processing and "harmonies" that it just sounds fake. Let alone the fact that most of Kizu's songs all sound the same. If it's a single they have a part of the song that's him saying lala or ooh ooh or some other non-verbal melody ... there's a lot of talent there, but I just don't get the allure.

    If you like underground Post-Metalcore i urge you to check out the band ONE LAST STAND. They fuckin' slay!!

      The vocals on STAY REAL sound like they're with the mic halfway across the room. There's some real potential here, but I think they need more polish.

    I'm torn on Ghost of Tsushima. It looks like samurai Assassin's Creed and while that is a great idea, I can't help but feel like this is cultural appropriation ...

      Alright, I can see that. It's a love letter rather than the content being taken out of context.

      Just because it's a Sony first-party game doesn't mean it's Japanese. It's developed by Sucker Punch, a studio from Seattle. Their latest State of Play states lots about how it's inherently and clearly an American production heavily influenced by old films by Kurosawa and the like. I think it looks great and I'm very excited for it. The cultural appropriation comment was a thought and it is, by definition, borderline appropriation.

    Holy fuck Mama sounds way better than Morphine did. I'm pretty sure that's partially because Saki has input in their music, and by that I mean hes making them play old school Vkei lol

    1. patientZERO

      patientZERO

      I liked Morphine's first output, but they got old real fast, so I never checked out Mama. Maybe I'll give them a listen now.

    I survived the purge at work ... the first time they've had to lay off employees in 60 years. 20% gone. I'm still employed for now, though ...

    1. patientZERO

      @YuyoDriftGood luck to you too, man. I honestly hope this all blows over before it comes to a second round of layoffs for myself and before they terminate your contract. Yesterday was a hard day at work for everyone in the company and afterward there was a conference call where they expected everyone else to step up for those who were let go. A bit of a mixed bag of messages.

      I will give them a bit of credit, though, since they laid off those who were close to retirement age (and probably gave them early retirement) and also some of the chaff who weren't that great to begin with, but they couldn't afford to let go when we were super busy. It still sucks, though.

      Hang in there everybody. I'm trying to stay positive.
