hyura

I have many fond memories of both bands, but both disappointed me a lot, too.
Phantasmagoria, before their original disbandment, when they released proper songs, not just leftovers, rererererecordings and ballads intended to make nostalgic fans cry and throw money at them, were great. And there are many songs I still love listening to.
They were very vk, didn't leave out any fun cliché to make lives more enjoyable, copying from pretty much everywhere but kinda turning it into their own thing. Juns songwriting was still great. They could play all their songs in one show but each song was memorable. Not really original, but memorable and fun. Their lyrics were cheesy romantic messes, but it didn't matter because they didn't take themselves too serious either.
 
As for ヴィドール...well they sold themselves, too. Most songs on their major releases, actually even the later UCP stuff were a waste of talent, but I still think everything they did for the first few years is flawless.
There wasn't (and isn't) a band that could compare to them either, they really had their own sound that captured me from the very first time I listened to them and still captures me today.
In comparison to Magomago they released a TON but since each release had it's own theme and they didn't focus on only live tracks but also experimented a lot that didn't matter at all. I loved listening to their CDs as I loved seeing them live and there propably won't be an active band I love as much again.
As opposed to Phantasmagoria I have to be in the right mood to listen to their songs because they aren't something I could just play in the background, so maybe I actually listen to them less often.
 
Still. I think that they are (or were, as I'm only referring to their UCP years) simply the better band. More versatile, much, much more original, more 'serious' and less of a fun easy-listening kind of band, better lyrics, a band with an actual concept and themed releases. On top of that my favorite band for many years. So. My vote goes to ヴィドール~

Panda, please explain your shoes to me. .o.

Oh hey

So there was a MH meet in Helsinki a couple of months ago. Our humongous meet-up consisted of me, Biopanda, Slsr and WhirlingBlack (who's behind the camera because he's oooooh-so-mysterious).
 

~Biopanda, paradoxal, Slsr~
 
 
 
And then one super high quality pic of me & Panda and a hint of WB's hair, part of WB's hand and the zipper of WB's shirt (so secret, much mystery, wow) 

 
 

While I agree with the general consent here in that 'showing off' and exaggerating things is an important element of visual kei I've had that feeling a couple times.
A solo that feels out of place and does more for the bandmember playing it than for the song as a whole.
Or pvs that feel a bit awkward because they are more like showcases for how fast everyone can play while making cute faces.

Sorry about that m(_ _)m

MadWinK. definitely still need a Luna Sea and Madeth gray'll copyband.

『生まれながら4の業を持つ彼は、
“Umare nagara 4 no gō o motsu kare wa,
He who bore the fate of death* by birth had,
神を断絶したため、
Kami o danzetsu shita tame,
In order to extinguish god,
皮膚を剥がされ、
Hifu o hagasare,
His skin flayed,
足枷をつけられて、
Ashikase o tsukerarete,
Strings attached to his limbs,
まるで独楽のように、
Marude koma no yō ni,
And was, just like a spinning top,
愛する人の前を引きずりまわされました。
Aisuru hito no mae o hikizuri mawasaremashita.
Forcefully dragged around in front of the person he loved.
その痛みに快楽を憶えた彼は、
Sono itami ni kairaku o oboeta kare wa,
He who felt pleasure from that pain,
自らの足枷で神を吊し上げ、
Mizukara no ashikase de kami o tsurushiage,
Used his own strings to hang god,
そして糸の切れた操綉人形は、
Soshite ito no kireta ayatsuri ningyō wa,
And the marionette* that eventually cut off it's threads
今日も貴女を求め、

Was searching for you today, too,
街を彷徨い続けました。』
Machi o urotsui tsuzukemashita. ”
Continuing to wander the streets..."


明日眠る前にこの話を思い出したら、
Ashita nemuru mae ni kono hanashi o omoidashitara,
Tomorrow when you recall this story before going to bed,
そっと後ろを振り向いてxxxxxxx
Sotto ushiro o furimuite xxxxxxx
Quietly turn to look behind you xxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxしなければ、xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxx shinakereba, xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxx If you don't, xxxxxxxxxx
xxxx首を吊って笑ってるでしょう。
xxxx kubi o tsutte waratteru deshou.
xxxx will hang you and laugh, I think.

 
 
 
------
Those printed lyrics have no resemblance to what's actually sung. The latter part is included as narration at the end of the original version on NEW AGE CULTURE～第一楽章～, though.
*'4' in japanese can be read as 'shi'- 死 meaning 'death'
*操り人形 meaning marionette. For some reason the 'ri' is written with the kanji 綉 meaning 'embroidery' here.

So. Finally. : o Hope my version is nice to read, too.

btw he is now president of "Office Egret" and using his real name "松尾貴弘(matsuo takahiro)"

My major is mathematics but I also do lots of programming stuff.
That direction isn't really what I was aiming for, I always thought my strength was art and languages. (And so did my teachers, family and friends)
However, I'm doing well. While most people don't even pass I have pretty good grades and the chance for me to get a nicely paid job later on is high. : /
So it seems I'll just stick with it and do the artsy fartsy stuff in my freetime...

Bit offtopic but.
Am I the only one who thinks this analogy is really fucked up?
I mean. I don't mind pirates at all so I'd be on the "pets, not parasites" team but... how is pirating music similar to sexual harassment? And does it mean I should think of sex offenders as pets, too, because I don't mind piracy?
Sure, both are illegal and both are a violation of another persons rights but have you ever heard of some anime creator who had to go to therapy to fix his deep emotional trauma caused by neckbeards downloading his work?
How is sexual harassment related to wanting or not wanting a girlfriend anyway?

*One Hundred Years of Solitude is the title of a novel by Gabriel Garcia.

New hair

Not to mention that thing that happened last week with that kid in Santa Barbara who killed 6 people because he couldn't get laid. He even made a (really creepy) video about how the day would be his "day of retribution" and he was also part of the Men's Rights Activist group online. He felt like women OWED him sex because he was nice to them. The MRA isn't just for jokes anymore, it's actually killing people. The worst feminism does is make white teenage boys angry on the internet, jfc.
 
The major press seems to be trying to push the whole misogyny issue to the background by saying he was "mentally ill" and that this is the reason why he did what he did. I won't deny the kid must've had some sort of illness but that doesn't change the fact that the action was fuelled by misogyny/hate for women. It's funny how people only tend to recognize mental illness as an actual legit thing when they're doing it to protect a white guy.
 
Terribly sorry for going off-topic, but since we're talking misogyny anyway...I hope the girls get well soon and I hope they'll get all the medical and mental care they need to let this go.

Now in this gap of time

If,it's all vision? 信じる事さえも
If,it's all vision?
Shinjiru koto sae mo
Even what we believe
If,I'm vision? 心だけ立ち止まった
If,I'm vision?
Kokoro dake tachidomatta
It's just my heart that stopped

記憶の花咲き乱れた風に吹かれ散る花弁を
Kioku no hana saki midareta kaze ni fukare chiru hanabira o
Memory's blossoms bloomed in profusion, their petals blown and scattered by the wind
記憶の花咲く丘で拾い集め枯れる前に
Kioku no hana saku oka de hiroi atsume kareru mae ni
Memories blooming on that hill, gather them all before they wither away

記憶の花刻みつけよう雨にうたれ散る花弁を
Kioku no hana kizamitsukeyou ame ni utare chiru hanabira o
Memory's blossoms let's never forget, their petals struck and scattered by the rain
記憶の花咲く丘で拾い集め枯れる前に…
Kioku no hana saku oka de hiroi atsume kareru mae ni…
Memories blooming on that hill, gather them all before they wither away...

恋がれて (芝浦version)
Kogarete  (Shibaura version)
Longing* (Shibaura** version)

空を見上げて君を想っても　今はそこにはいない
Sora o miagete kimi o omotte mo
Although I look up to the sky and think of you
Ima wa wa inai
You are gone now

君に告げられた　別れの言葉　そっと抱いている　今も
Kimi ni tsugerareta
The words you said
Wakare no kotoba
Before you left
Sotto daiteiru
I treasure them quietly
Ima mo
Even now
心すり抜けて　僕の側から いなくなった
Kokoro surinukete
You fled my heart
Boku no soba kara inakunatta
And disappeared from my side

夜が僕を包んで　一人歩く事できず
Yoru ga boku o tsutsunde
I'm wrapped in darkness
Hitori aruku koto dekizu
Unable to walk alone
涙が頬をつたって　届かない想いは今　揺れてる
Namida ga hoho o tsutatte
Tears run down my cheeks
Todokanai omoi wa ima
And my unconveyed feelings
Yureteru
Make me shiver now

僕はこの想い　そしてぬくもり　いつまで守っているの
Boku wa kono omoi
Those feelings
Soshite nukumori
And your warmth
Itsu made mamotteiru no
Till when will I hold on to them?
伝わらない事　気持ちのない事　わかっているのに
Tsutawaranai koto
Although I know
Kimochi no nai koto
They did not reach you
Wakatteiru no ni
And you don't feel anything

愛は止まったままで　一人歩く事できず
Ai wa tomatta mama de
My love remains
Hitori aruku koto dekizu
I'm unable to walk alone
君はほかの誰かを　愛しているのかな
Kimi wa hoka no dareka o
Are you in love
Aishiteiru no kana
with someone else, I wonder

空を見上げて君を想っても　今はそこにはいない
Sora o miagete kimi o omotte mo
Although I look up to the sky and think of you
Ima wa soko ni wa inai
You are not there anymore
きっとわかってたつもりだけど　間違いだったね
Kitto wakatteta tsumori dakedo
I really tried to understand but
Machigai datta ne
It was my fault, wasn't it?

夜が僕を包んで　一人たたずんでいた
Yoru ga boku o tsutsunde
I was wrapped in darkness
Hitori tatazundeita
Standing there alone
涙が頬をつたって　届かない想いは今
Namida ga hoho o tsutatte
Tears ran down my cheeks
Todokanai omoi wa ima
And my unconveyed feelings are now

ただ君の事守りたいだけで　僕の言ってた事は
Tada kimi no koto mamoritai dake de
I only wanted to protect you
Boku no itteta koto wa
And what I said to you
君を愛しているからこそ　言ってたんだよ
Kimi o aishiteiru kara koso
The reason I said it was
Ittetanda yo
Just that I'm in love with you

空を見上げて君を想っても　今はそこにはいない
Sora o miagete kimi o omotte mo
Although I look up to the sky and think of you
Ima wa soko ni wa inai
You are not there anymore
きっとわかってたつもりだけど　間違いだったね
Kitto wakatteta tsumori dakedo
I really tried to understand but
Machigai datta ne
It was my fault, wasn't it?



*'kogareru'(to long for smth) is normally written 焦がれる but in this case the kanji 恋(love) is used.

**Shibaura is a district in tokyo
 
The song was originally released by Sayukis ex-band SPIRYTEAR with the title "恋がれて" and I took the lyrics from that original version. I'm not sure if the printed lyrics for Liliths version are different, the sung ones are the same.
