Well fuck, how am I just seeing this now? They have been one of my favorite VK bands since I started listening to them in 2005-2006. Man, now I'm sad.

Man, I feel like this thread has served as a reminder that I never much cared for Oshare Kei. I dabbled in it, but very little stuck. But for whatever reason, I still love the fuck out of Panic Channel's Pink Cherry.

Honestly, that trailer brought back the hype for FFXV for me. I was kind of feeling like the game was just boys in cars and this helped bring it back.

well....well then. I'm sorry I didn't deliver all that extra Ito flavor you were looking for XD

I won't say any more than this, but I wouldn't worry much.

You know what else is fun? I.P. Bans!

Oh hi there!

This hasn't been posted in in a whiiiiiile this was a thing:

Some really quick thoughts on tracks that I liked:

Glad to know I'm not the only one that felt this way. This release just felt wholly underwhelming. I honestly thought that Death in Reverse as a standalone functioned single worked better than this entire album. Requiem for Hell (the song) just felt so entirely long winded and I'm not sure the riff they build off of in the climax is even all that great. That said, I would love if they piled on more distortion so that the song felt more heavy than it actually does. I just felt like they were trying to capture this whole swirling in to chaos vibe and the overall sound just wasn't dense or chaotic enough. ( would have loved for them to pull some of the energy from the closing track off of Rays of Darkness. Ely's Heartbeat and The Last Scene are both overall very pretty songs, and I honestly enjoy them, but they are rather forgettable. I 100% agree with your statement that Mono's formula has grown stale. I don't think anyone can dispute that they can still create very pretty music, but we want it to be interesting as well. I can see myself spinning this track as background music from time to time, but that is probably it.

I've only check out one of pg.lost's albums, but I dug it. I'll have to try their new one. Now that sounds like a hell of a show! Alcest's Kodama is in the running to be one of my top albums of the year.

Pretty much my exact feelings lol. I just worry about Drifters since we all know what happened last time Kouta's manga was translated to anime form before he was finished. The Great Passage is possibly the only other show that has my interest...that said, it it might be a balancing act with the maturity that I am hoping it has and also it not being boring lol.

That delay between venue release and store release is brutal. Here's to hoping we hear it before the store release.

Yup, that was me! I'm glad that it you ended up making it to the site though, even if it was a year afterwards lol. I'm glad I can still give you a reason to go LOL. Seriously though, I still hope you have fun outside of just my panel. I will be submitting my panel request for 2017 this weekend. Maybe the kid in me has never died, but I still love going. Acen is one of my most enjoyable weekends of the year...though a huge part of that is because I've gotten in to cosplay photography in a big way.

Did the cloud hurt itself and decide to dissipate early?

I still need to go through the list, but holy shit September has been a good month for music. So much good new stuff, both Japanese and not.

Been a while since I posted a pictures, so here's my current rig: I have since added some RGB lighting stripes, so I will need to get some new shots lol

Just finished Re:Zero, Space Patrol Luluco, and Flying Witch. Re:Zero was a fucking mess. I'm shocked I managed to get through it all. I could rant for probably a solid hour as to why I think this show is bad, but I will spare you all. If you enjoy it, you enjoy it. Luluco was a fun in a brainless sense. Honestly, I think the gorgeous animation is what kept me around. Flying Witch was fairly boring. I had been watching this one with my fiancee for the first few episodes, but I downgraded it to a before bed show because it helped put me in a sleepy mood. Literally nothing happens in this show. Another one that I am shocked I finished, but for very different reasons that Re:zero.

Close, Spike760 lol

Still loving this format, dude. Keep it up. I'll have to check out the CD now lol

I don't know, man, that Valluna feels less like homage and more like copy to me. If you are going to be the blatant about it, might as well have just covered it.
