The first ep was really fun, tho I don't have any favorites yet (it's too early to tell). Lovin' Acid Betty's looks so far tho!

Ridiculous, lmao. I can safely say that I will conditionally not listen to their album, if it ever gets released. There, everyone stays happy.

Not bad so far~

Lookin' forward to hearing it~

omg, I'm screaming :'DDDDDDDDD

Good to see they made some effort in putting together a simple but effective album preview video (instead of just slapping a tracklist there and be done with it).

Interesting interview btw: http://jrockradio.net/2016/03/urgent-interview-yoshiki-tells-pata-said-he-was-going-to-die-in-wembley/ lmao, THE DRAMA.

I know my fellow Monochromians are anxious to hear about the status of the new X JAPAN album. Not to worry, Yoshiki has made an important update about his current activities: https://twitter.com/YoshikiOfficial/status/707219197038690305 ...oh.

Mariam Petrosyan: The House, In Which...: Quite a large novel, at least compared to what I'm used to. Thus, I'm progressing pretty slowly, but lovin' every page of it. It's a huge, sprawling story about a boarding school of disabled kids who make up their own little world/mythology. What I like most of all is how it's not geared at making the reader feel pity or sadness concerning the kids, they live their curious lives the way they know, the way it's always been. It has a kinda weird/urban fantasy feeling, sprinkled with childhood and coming-of-age stuff, written beautifully and very evocatively. S. T. Joshi: H. P. Lovecraft - A Life: Biography of the influential American weird fiction/horror writer Howard Phillips Lovecraft, written by the foremost scholar of his life and work. It's incredibly detailed, maybe bordering on ridiculous and/or boring at times, but full of interesting and useful info as well. I'm mostly enjoying the parts about the author's everyday private life and how the actual stories came to be, inspiration-wise.

^ Agreed, really entertaining movie.

That was pretty nice actually!

Best ending ever! lmao

^ Makes more sense then, I see. Interesting~

^ I know it's a silly question but how could a group copy a song that's only been online for 15 days, while the single was released a few days before that date (and even then, for them to copy it, they would've needed to hear it months ago to put it to disc). Cool tune btw!

Got my CDs in about two weeks' time (US to Hungary), everything neatly packed and in perfect condition. Quick and reliable seller - recommended!

^ It's either from 2006 January 28 Paris, or January 29 Frankfurt (venue: Batschkapp), those were their only two EU gigs.

Bruh, that's exactly why Loft is awesome! Small but very much legendary place where many cool bands started out and still go back to, from time to time (Kuroyume and Merry had amazing 'returning gigs' there, among others).

^ Found DIAURA's set, others might pop up later too (hopefully): 01. ENIGMA 02. DEAR RULER 03. Beautiful Creature 04. black sheep under the Shallow sleep 05. 烙印 06. evil 07. 赤い虚像 08. MASTER EN 01. an Insanity

dat faux VHS style, 10/10 Lovin' it~~

Awesome! I love Shinjuku LOFT, great to see it featured on more live DVDs~

Sounds nice~

Oooh interesting~

Yay, cool! Lookin' forward to it! (even though I already forgot what their last release sounded like, lol)

dat new look, SO MUCH YES. Also, I like how they don't have titles for 2 songs yet, and are like "x member wrote this one, we just don't have a title yet". xD

YOSHIDA TATSUYA, MAAAAN!!!! Amazing.
