You constantly try to bait other members into arguments by making unsubstantiated "edgy"/inflammatory claims and then when someone calls you out on argumentative fallacies whenever you try to tread beyond the purely subjective, you either create straw men to fight against or whine about the "tone" in the discussion, a tone you very much set the standard for when needlessly attacking other members on their subjective taste, like or dislike of a certain song. 

Not only do you monopolize threads and antagonize people who don't agree with you, when you're done digging your own grave you have the nerve to call me out for not throwing you a rope and dragging you out of it.
 
There's a reason why the reply got so many likes, perhaps you should reflect on your own actions on this forum a bit and how you present yourself here. Making a new account isn't much use when you keep falling back into the same patterns.

Which legitimately no one said. I don’t know why The Inferno, or new Dir en grey material in general, triggers you as much as it does. 
 
It literally set you off into being a passive aggressive asshole out of nowhere when I commented on how much I enjoy the song. 
 
I get it, you’re upset I corrected you in our conversation a few days ago and this was your chance to get back at me, but please try to act less petty, ESPECIALLY when you evidently don’t know a single thing about music and the only term you remotely know is “motif” to make up for your lack of musical vocabulary. 

One of my friends from back home apparently recorded the female speaking voice for this song, kind of weird to hear it...

Hi all, I wasn't aware that there is such an elaborate forum for J-rock/VK stuff!  Glad to be here!
I'm Ken; I live in rural Ibaraki, Japan.  I've been a fan of visual rock since I was in high school (early 00s!)
These days I work all the time but I occasionally find time to go to shows or play as a support bassist for local bands.

Recently I'm working on a YouTube show about late 90s/early 00s VK.  In addition to doing reviews,
I would like to analyze various tropes and aspects of the genre .  It's still a little rough but I'd  appreciate any kind of
feedback or support.   Thanks!

episode 2

 

They really should just have done a complete remaster of Withering to death. The contrast is quite stark because of the terrible muddy production the original has. Some of the tracks, such as the GAUZE ones, I can't notice any quality improvement whatsoever on. 
 
 

I remember sometime before the album came out, roughly late 2006 I would say, that there had been a of leak of 4-5 songs in pre-production quality through some form of security breach in their internal servers. Apparently only a small handful of people got their hands on it though, and I never did, so I can't say for certain and it was over ten years ago, but those are my recollections of what I heard at the time. I know that @Furik was around at Batsu at the same time so maybe he remembers something about it too?

The title of the gig was:
 
本当にこれでいいんですね　ハイ　あなたは何人目ですか　一人目です　僕は数え切れない子供を殺しています　あなたは許せますか
・・・・・もう一度聞きます　本当にこれでいいんですね　ハイ　用意はいいですか　ハイ　では始めましょう
 
And the date was: 12月18日　大阪城ホール
 
You could just look at their OHP for this information, all tour titles are displayed there. Not sure where the idea that it should be in English came from.
 
 

I miss since1889. 

I'm meeting Yoshiki for a Q&A session on the 19th of October, if there aren't any news by that point on the album I'll just ask him for a release date.
My best guess is that he'll immediately cancel the Q&A and have his guards escort me off the premises.
