Sena eventually posted pictures as Sanzo. Plus some bonus images of the group all together

Is CLAPPER any better? Most small venues that VK bands frequent sound pretty stupid.

JILUKA had some instore events yesterday/today where they dressed up in Halloween costume. They cosplayed as characters from the anime/manga Saiyuku. Ricko as Goku Boogie as Gojyo Zyean as Hakkai Another of Boogie and Zyean I guess Sena didn't want to participate as Sanzo or hasn't uploaded pictures yet?

グリーヴァ (Grieva)

I was really looking forward to this album, but it all seemed very one-note for me and the new keyboardist sounds bored when she sings. A damn shame.

Well ... shit. I always liked L and was glad he started a new project with tomoya after the revolving door of members in t3B. It's a shame they couldn't stay together.

Ricko of JILUKA

On 2017.10.28, at their live event Far East Gathering vol. 2 with JILUKA, Leetspeek Monsters, sick., and grimoire, Far East Dizain will release a live-limited single entitled "thorns" for 800y. If there are supplies after the live, they'll be sold on their website and through mail order (so it seems).

The random jazz sounds very out of place.

The usual: "musical differences."

After their last live with Ryuya, they were all pretty cordial and goofing around. Ryuya stage-dived (dove?) at the end, too, plus they did a 6-shot photoshoot with fans who bought their album at the live. If Ryuya had left on bad terms, I think he wouldn't stick around for the signing/photoshoot. He seemed like a cool dude to me at least.

So it looks like the single will be the same at every live, distributed for free. Each one will come with a different sticker. Those who collect all eight and go to the oneman can get a t-shirt as well. So for those who are looking to collect this, there isn't nine different types of the single, so it seems.

They are way too enthusiastic in that video in comparison to how bored they sound.

The band has announced that pre-orders through Tower Records will include a signed poster.

I don't know. I take stuff like that livejournal rant with a grain of salt. Some of it could be true, but I honestly don't really care all that much. D'espa is dead. If his health wasn't the issue, he'd be in a different band by now. That's all. People want to throw blame around, especially those who feel close to things like this (and I'm guessing that LJ user held D'espa very close to their heart), but in the end, conjecture won't get anyone anywhere.

I did not expect this. Now I'm pissed that I missed out on seeing them live. EDIT - What the heck does "I'm 6" mean?

You're right. I totally forgot!

While I don't know a lot regarding the rumors of lack of pay, I think the fact that every other member has gone on to continue in music is proof enough that Hizumi's health is a driving point of their disbandment. He did perform on (incredibly short) reunion set as D'espairsRay, but has put more time and effort into his art/clothing/jewelry company. I'm sure he would like to continue to sing, but his voice won't let him. Of course Zero is in THE MICRO HEAD 4N's, Karyu with Angelo, and Tsubasa has gone solo in his enka career, but Hizumi's health most definitely is the catalyst for their disbandment. They did go on a hiatus beforehand for half a year, hoping his health would improve, but ultimately ended up disbanding. If there were ulterior motives for their disbandment, I don't think the hiatus would have happened. They would have just called it quits.

Damn, I totally forgot about this. I was super curious to hear まみれた and sick. live.
