Bands need to stop selling demo's. That's not their purpose ...

Aishite Kudasai was on a compilation, too. So it's even less new songs. Albeit this is a new version.

I wonder if Kano will permanently join the grou after the album releases. If I remember correctly, she's the current president of Sakura Gakuin as was Su and Moa, so she could follow suit.

That is one beefy set list (if the whole thing is included in the DVD)!

This is a hard one for me, but probably for the opposite reason of most members here. I don't get the hype for either band. They're both incredibly talented, but while Kizu's releases all sound like the same song (speedy blast beats and repeated noise-words, interjected with spots to allow guitar spins), DIMLIM is a bit all over the place, especially with recent releases. So I give my tip to them, since they're displaying more range musically. They may not have the business down as well as Kizu, but I'm here for the music first-and-foremost and not the gimmick.

Oh, that makes a bit more sense.

Hmmm. If I close my eyes and ignore that this is Nokubura, it's not bad. But I'm not sure what to think overall. It's interesting to note that they've formed a new "label" for this release seemingly run by Hiro.

Cool. Looks scary.

This. The constant use of autotune and overlayed vocal harmonies really are tiring. They need to understand that there is a such thing as over-produced music.

A certain someone who's tight with Keisuke used to live in Australia and took him to visit the country at one point. Just saying.

Mikaru (ex. Dio) has a solo project that's also partially an art project and fashion/jewelry line.

INB4 they announce Australia before anything else.

Screen printing is pretty damn cheap, especially when you sell your crap at astronomical markups.

Dir en grey's Child Prey was also the opening for the anime, Baki the Grappler. (potentially only in the Funimation releases?)

Good idea. Start from scratch. Get a vocalist and label yourself something new. Stop trying to cobble together the pieces of someone else's mishaps.

I agree. Their "flow" is so inconsistent and it feels like three different songs haphazardly pieced together. They're not bad, they just need to focus on construction.

Got bored. Felt cute. Might or might not release a CD later.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I feel like everyone goes bonkers for them and I just don't get it.

Me likey! They're getting heavier and that's all good with me!

While it may not be full-song or even performance length, but Dexcore members post tons of snippets of their lives on their twitter accounts. Here's kagami featured on Deviloof's ESCAPE during their two-man. And here's another of them playing Imitation:

This is a strange question to me because of course I would want to join bands I like, but that would mean replacing certain members with myself and I already like them. So maybe I could join as a second vocalist or something. Maybe like DADAROMA or NOCTURNAL BLOODLUST as another vocalist since Yoshiatsu and Hiro already are great. Or I could have hopped in and taken Korey's place in FIXER on drums.

Maria is as gross as ever. Kaitou is probably going to use this to write a new song, and I wonder if they'd get away with parodying Maria.

It's pronounced Diitekutiibu Piikasou.

Hizumi plus KISHI?! My loins are ready (as are my ears)! I'm glad he's back in good health!
