    Found this band in my sugg. the other day, and I actually found them to be pretty catchy. I like how they experiment w/ drastically different concepts, as each MV/song is a unique experience, haha. Def. getting some System of a Down & SiM ~ish vibes.
  2. Well... Got the Android 9 (Pie) update...I already hate how it looks/functions. 😞

      Really? I actually love the UI on it.

      I haven't got the update yet. I doubt my phone even has the space for one, and every time I update it, the data and album art for my music gets fucked

      Everything felt too rounded compared to my current setup, but when I switched back from my 3rd party launcher (Nova) to the Pixel Launcher I realized they implemented a ton of features that Android 9 needs to function "normally". I still think everything is still a bit too round, but I found it meshed well w/ the rest of the elements, compared to using Nova Launcher. The whole experience still feels very iPhone-ish which I still have to get used to. 

       

      I have some trivial gripes, like how when you pull the notification bar, another clock and different battery indicator pull down over it (It looks better w/ the dark theme (dark -> light elements from status bar -> setting bubbles), but I have light turned on.) The gesture ver. of the navigation bar is asymmetrical with a really small back button to the left but nothing on the right... etc. 

       

      I do like how they moved the volume popup and the swipe gestures. I've been using swipe gestures for years via different launchers, so implementing it to all of the Android experience is convenient.  

       

      TL;DR

      1. Still getting used to the bubble design, since I never really liked it.
      2. At the moment you really have to stick with the stock launcher for everything to "work". Everything is very ergonomic, but I feel like I'm using a knockoff iPhone. I prefer having control over how my phone feels, hence why I used custom launchers.
      3. I'll have to design another KLWP theme to match the experience.
      4. There's def. some buuugs but they'll be fixed in time (og Pixel XL has lost the ability to fast charge.)

    It's Jin bby! This is really nice. Also related... A pretty decent metalcore cover of "FAKE LOVE". I have my gripes, but it's pretty damn gud.

    Still not super thrilled with the album, but I do like 懐色花火, another world, and esp. Adventure Time. (I'm trying to convince myself that 懐色花火 does a slight nod to xTRiPx - Fall to U (my favorite song, btw) , the chorus melodies are similar)

    Current Collection: Need some advice. I'm using my planar magnetics (Mad Dogs) with a Schiit Stack (Magni2/Modi2), but they weren't cutting it for some reason. I ended up using my Magni as a pre-amp for an 80's Optonica SM-3300 amplifier (which my speakers are hooked up to as well), and I immediately heard a difference. Everything sounds much fuller & dynamic, but the SM-3300 is huuuge. TL;DR does anybody have any suggestions for (or experience with) more "modern", regular-sized amps that would give me the same vintage sound that can replace my Magni2 -> Optonica solution? (Perhaps some sort of tube amp?)

    What's funny is I thought this song sounded familiar,but turns out the chorus sounds kinda similar to Malice Mizer's "Au Revoir" which also includes "眠りたい" in the lyrics.

    Covers are deceiving, and I'm familiar with a couple of these: Goblin Slayer might be pretty good *comment above* If done right, Toaru Majutsu no Index III is going to be the anime of the season. (Yes, with both SnK and Tokyo Ghoul in there... Please, J.C Staff don't screw this up) They're apparently covering everything to the end of the "Old Testament" LNs in two cours (24 eps), and all of it is pretty action-packed. Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken has really excellent world-building for an isekai series. That art style threw me for a loop b/c it looks moe-fied from the original, but hopefully it stays true to the series. Kishuku Gakkou no Juliet is just Nisekoi w/ a different art style, if you like that sort of series. Seishun Buta Yarou wa Bunny Girl Senpai no Yume wo Minai is not bad. It has supernatural and psychological elements to it, and there is no harem in this series (that I know of.) The yuri series (Yagate Kimi ni Naru) is nice and has well-rounded characters. I can vouch for it.

    Yesss, much hype.
  12. Bang!!Bambina!! is such a fun song!

    You had the opportunity and you took it. *standing applause*

    I used to go nuts, collecting (and eventually uploading) all of their live-limited & multi-type releases and whatnot, but I completely lost track/interest after Reborn. It got to the point where they kept repeating the same motifs in their songs and I just gave up spending $$ on their stuff. That being said, this particular release has caught my interest b/c it does sound pretty good w/ more instrumental presence (v. electronic) ... Still, it would be nice if they finally stopped using that sparkle synth that they use literally in every song.

    Didn't know there was such quality footage of baphomet. Had to replay this several times *_*.

    Multi-fandom shook-ness. (Also, Yerin's bangs totally grew on me) My favorite off of the mini ❤️ (all of their songs with "wind" in the title are obv. gonna be bops):

    Is this the Japanese equivalent of two white guys going at it w/ lightsabers and cg effects? Not mentioning that the Jack Daniel's shirt ties the whole MV together. Otherwise, the song isn't that bad. (It might need a bit more polish imo)
  19. colorful人生

    That's pretty do🅱e.
  20. Didn't like the chibi, so I made my own album cover w/ the CD logos, etc. There could def. be improvements made, otherwise I'm pretty content w/ it.

    I somehow forgot about this and now I can't stop listening to it. He in some ways kinda sounds like an early ViViD-era Shin without all of the vibrato & range. I think it's hard to tell b/c it feels like he's trying to force his upper register when he sings (you can esp. tell during lives), but it could be just how his voice is (which is what I assume is actually the case). Everything comes out fine in the recordings tho, so all is good.
  23. Now that you can remove the game whitelist, I kinda regret not picking up one of those $20 PlayStation TV refurbs back in 2015. Now they're selling for double/triple on ebay ;_;. Hindsight is 20/20 I guess...

    I really liked MoNoLith's Ryu. While he's not the "best", I really liked the uniqueness in how the growls were implemented their songs (jump to 1:41 for another good moment.) When I first listened to the band, I thought Ryu was the Cookie Monster on steroids, but after listening to their music for a while, I realized how well it worked. oh... and Kyo

    This finally got to me after nabbing it a month-or-so ago, and the lead track is actually really impressive. I've kinda meh'd out at some of their recent material, but this is really refreshing! Shougo should implement "harsh vocals" more often, he pulls them off pretty well.
