    I vaguely remember watching that 畸形メるへん video before somewhere. Either way, I kind of like it. It's rather catchy and the vocalist is oddly endearing :(

     

    That Ver Meer(?) song is surprisingly addictive too, even though it's probably one of the most horrible things my ears have had to endure. But, I mean, there's a cute boy in a dress...how could I not like it?

     

    Also, thanks to PHMK, that song is now engraved into the back of my mind. Again.

    Tried to look as 80s Goff as possible. Possibly early 90s VK flair too. Not sure if I achieved what i wanted ot just look dumb.

     

     

    Also agree, Hyura is kawaii as fuck <3

    You look like Siouxsie and that makes me happy  :lolita_love:

    You look beautiful, digi! : o

    Also a little bit like you're advertising deodorant. XD Dem perfect armpits~

     

    We recently bought a fuji instax camera and between lots of random shots of cats, cars and action figures a novelty appeared:

    Official Hyura cheki.

    I look chubby, despite hitting underweight recently.

     

    My armpits and I say thank you~

    I was actually just trying to hold up my hair to see how it looked, but I liked the pictures, so that happened :'D

     

    Also, might I add, Hyura looks stunning as always~

    Really great song by Bleach (the British band from the 80's and 90's). Most of their songs, if not all, give off a shoegaze-y aura, especially this one. What makes it even more interesting, is the rap vocals nearing the middle of the song. I'm not usually a fan of that, but I think the combination of shoegaze and rap goes together well in this case!

    11. What do you listen to when you want to calm down? Anything by The Cure, G-SCHMITT and such..
    12. Last gig/concert you went to? Pfft, I've been to Maryland Deathfest if that even counts.
    13. Band you find yourself listening to the most right now? Currently, those bands would be Malaria! and The Birthday Party ;o; 
    14. Most hated band? I guess I don't really have a hated band, unless you want to count all those glittery, poppy vkei bands that seem to be popular now.
    15. Song that makes you think? I suppose most songs make me think, but I find that a lot of Guernica songs soothe the nerves and help me think. 
    16. Band that you think the world should love as much as you do? I dunno, all my favorites? 
    17. Favorite music video? The music video for "Gumbo" by Matador is great! Gudrun is so lovely in that video. Another good one is the video for "Shotgun" by Bleach.
    18. Can you play a musical instrument? I play a bit of bass and piano, but I'm far from perfect.
    19. Are you in a band? Would be nice, but it seems like a lot of work.

    22. Last song that you heard on the radio/CD…etc…? Well, CD-wise, I think the last song I heard was "All I Want" by The Cure, considering I managed to pick up the Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me album a few days ago.
    23. What do you think of Classical music? I love it. Seems like many others don't, sadly, but I like listening to it while doing homework and such. In fact, one of my favorite composers is Leonard Bernstein ;_;
    24. What do you think of Country music? Not a fan.
    25. What do you think of Death metal? It's pretty good. I mean, I managed to enjoy Deathfest, so I suppose that means I like it!
    26. What do you think of Visual Kei? I'm not as enthusiastic about it as I used to be, but I really enjoy lots of the angura and nagoya bands. 
    27. What do you think of Hip-hOP? I'll admit to enjoying some of the rap/hip-hop music from the 90's and such, but nowadays I think it is just complete garbage.
    28. If you were a musical instrument what would you be? Actually I'm not even sure ;o;

    32. Have you met any famous musicians? I wish!
    33. Do you follow the music charts, like the top 40? I used to, but most of the music played on those don't appeal to me in the slightest. 
    34. Do you watch music TV? As in MTV? Yeah, frequently, but usually not for the "music" aspect. Although, I do love going back through the archives and watching all the old episodes of 120 Minutes, and the music videos they used to show (usually from the 90's). Besides MTV, I like watching the old Viva Trance clips! (back when it was good, still)

    43. What language do you listen to the most in music? English, and Japanese, I suppose.

    45. How often do you download music? Quite frequently. 
    46. Are there any specific bitrates that you prefer? Don't really care about that, honestly. As long as it's listenable and not grating on the ears. 
    47. What do you think of autotune? I find that it fits in well with some songs (such as tracks by CAPSULE), but other than that, I'm not a fan.
    48. What do you think of Noise (music)? I rather like it, thanks to bands such as Melt-Banana and the like.
    49. Do you prefer listening to music on speakers or with headphones? I like both, really. Can't really pick between the two.

    56. What song will you play at your Wedding? "Pictures of You" by The Cure, as cheesy as that sounds. 
    57. What song will you play at your Funeral? I would say "Romeo's Distress" by Christian Death, but maybe that's too harsh for a funeral!
    58. What dead musician would you bring back? Rozz Williams
    59. Best intro to a song? Hmm, probably the intro to "Tremolo" by Plastic Tree.
    60. Favorite album cover? Wayyyy too many to name.
    61. Two artists or bands that you'd like to see collaborate? Gudrun Gut x Blixa Bargeld, that'd be sick. Or maybe even Dada and Kozi...

    71. What do you think about mainstream music today? Not a fan, but whatever floats your boat, I suppose!
    72. What do you think about KPOP? Listened to it a few times, and never got into it. Guess it's just not for me.

    I'd have to agree with Kitty on that one, as well. Superb track by DEAD END.

     

    1. Cocteau Twins - Sea, Swallow me

    2. Calmando Qual - Nukegara

    3. Malaria! - How do you like my new dog

    4. Atari Teenage Riot - Start the Riot!

    5. Bleach - Shotgun

    6. Siouxsie and the Banshees - Spellbound

    7. The Birthday Party - Jennifer's Veil

    8. The Runaways - Cherry Bomb

    9. La Dispute - King Park

    10. Melt-Banana - DUST HEAD

     

    This was incredibly hard to pick from. I adore all these songs to death ;_;

    Guess I'd have the settle on the track from Malaria!. Really haunting song in my opinion. One of the best bands to ever be involved in the Neue Deutsche Welle genre.
