    WhirlingBlack got a reaction from Bear in Is there anyone from Sweden here with a decent knowledge of places to visit in Stockh   
    Sci-Fi Bokhandeln in Gamla Stan, nearby there's also Sound Pollution which I suppose is the only specialized extreme metal store in the city that I know of, also the store that used to deal with the J-Rock materials back in the day (not anymore though, of course.)
     
    I remember there being a really cool used record shop for metal around there too but I think it might have closed. If you're into a wide arrange of styles there's at least two I've visited with a pretty large selection, I'll ask my friend where they were located exactly because my memory is a bit hazy. When are you planning on coming to Stockholm?

    WhirlingBlack got a reaction from Mamo in Who did it better - diru copy- VAJRA vs Grieva   
    Grieva are the more competent musicians, hands down, also more fun because they lasted longer and actually bothered to copy some of the PVs too. 
    I'd like to see them do a twoman, it'd be some weird schizophrenic old vs. new Dir en grey worship all at once. Dir en grey could be a secret opening act as well.

    WhirlingBlack got a reaction from Komorebi in today i finally hit a new milestone of 900 CDs - at 1000 i can finally stop this shit   
    If you just want to hit 1000 you can go to PureSound and buy random 10yen sale items like shazna or L'arc singles!
     
    You should focus on building a collection of stuff you can be proud to own, curating the collection is a good step to take too when you feel you've reached a large amount, at least I find a lot of joy in sorting the items and displaying the items I like the most from shelves and such.

    WhirlingBlack got a reaction from IGM_Oficial in Would it be against the forum rules if I share a poor quality rip and once Nihon Onga   
    Judging from past results I'd say no. You would just end up with people listening to subpar rips and cause headache to archivalists in the future. Plus deliberately sharing low quality rips is kind of an asshole move, one I've long claimed we should have a rule against.

    Deliberately sharing low quality rips is not a good idea. Usually the first rip uploaded is the one that stays on the Internet, and for that reason it's doing the scene a disservice in the long run.
     
    I think keeping rips here is a good ideal because it would concentrate the fanbase to one place, and I'd be willing to help out in making sure they stay here, but ultimately if people are hellbent on sharing on their blogs there's nothing we can do about it.

    Since Yuuki was the main songwriter of both bands, he simply imported a lot of the material from CTC into UnsraW. Even their breakthrough track, -9-, was originally a CTC song, there's a teaser of it at the end of their last live sold single, and it was played live several times.
     
    I think it was just the result of new band hype, a solid first single, and lucky exposure to the west early through YouTube which was just taking off for music. To be fair they never reached any heights in Japan beyond the average VK band, they played their onemans at Takadanobaba AREA and things like that.
