My secret hope is that because of the whole virus situation and all the live postponements it's caused, they'll forget that this is a time-limited revival and will just continue band activities into next year and beyond... ;<

The album recording is back on track! Imai has been posting from the studio on Instagram these past few days. Here's a short video of him trying out some spacey new effects for a potential new song:

It depends for me but most of the time I shower in the evening, before going to bed. It's just how I was socialized I guess.

The closest Yoshiki got to international fame in the past decade is when he was known for 15 minutes as The Scarf Lady (remember that? lmao). Total missed opportunity to self-leak the X album back then.

@Manabu Nice! He reminds me of Hakuei (PENICILLIN) a bit.

This band is not my cup of tea at all, but I enjoyed reading this (even more so than most of the interviews posted so far), thanks for this!

Heck yeahhh, this dude is awesome with this project.

@patientZERO Awww thanks!

Apparently in 1999 there was a sports game for Playstation released in Japan titled R [アール], also known as Rock'n Riders. It featured characters named and modeled after actual J-rock/VK musicians! According to the game's story in the "distant future of 20XX" a Japanese rock band called R go to Los Angeles for a gig, but for some reason rock music is outlawed so the authorities chase them through the US while the characters race each other on...snowboards?? Yeah. The members of the band: - vocals: Ellemo - guitar: Kyoji Yamamoto (BOWWOW) - guitar: Kiyoshi (media youth, hide with Spread Beaver, Lucy, machine) - guitar: Chisato (PENICILLIN) - bass: YASUMICHA'N (Sleep My Dear) - drums: O-JIRO (PENICILLIN) It also looks like these guys actually went ahead and recorded an album under this band name. Anyway, various tracks composed by the members also appear as background music in the game itself (here's a YT link to the full soundtrack). The 2CD limited version of the game also had a photo gallery of the real-life musicians dressed as their game characters it seems. A bunch of in-game footage can be found in this YT playlist. An assortment of screenshots and other info here. By the way a totally random tweet sparked this post, bless the abyss of the internet!

So, uhhhh it's just some comment on the Shinjuku LOFT support website, lol. ...although I can't seem to find it yet.

I guess they're optimistic... CHOP already has a "real" live booked at 05/31 too. Well, they also mention that depending on the situation it might change.

Apparently the band's hiatus was pretty short, as it looks like they'll be returning to live activities starting from the beginning of June:

Bassist YOSHIPON (luin, TEARS OF THE REBEL, f.k.a. Sally in KYOKUTOU GIRL FRIEND) recently hinted on Twitter that there will be an announcement concerning "ex-KYOKUTOU GIRL FRIEND" on 2020/05/18 at 6 PM (Japan time). He was also quick to point out that it's nothing big or serious (awww lol). Anyway, thought I'd make a thread cuz it might be something interesting. My bet is on KGF-style facemasks to raise money for livehouses or something like that. We'll see tomorrow I guess~ On a funny unrelated note, I've always been amused how KGF's official site has been up all these years, even though it's been almost a decade now since they disbanded. :'))
