LOOOL!

That would be pretty much my opinion too, lol.

Gilles de Rais - BECAUSE

Yikes! I hope he won't damage his throat further with the Euro tour and all that. I wish the best for him!

I agree with all of this. Not a bad song, I'm actually enjoying it more than anything since DIM.

MERRY will cover NEW RO'TEKA's song Shinjuku Nana on a tribute album that will be released on November 10. The artists and songs they will cover: ・青いお空 / フラワーカンパニーズ ・ラッキーライフ / CUBISMO GRAFICO FIVE ・...to be HARLEM / ヒダカトオル ・DRINKIN' BOYS / DJ OZMA ・新宿ナナ / MERRY ・太陽をさがして / milktub ・ロックンロール・クレイジーラン / 暴動＆ニューロティカ ・HOLD IN LOVE / ROTTENGRAFFTY ・ア・イ・キ・タ / 浅野忠信 ・ウイスキーロック / 怒髪天 ・雲を追いかけて / GLORY HILL ・飾らないままに / LUNKHEAD ・俺達いつでもロックバカ！ / 武藤昭平 with ウエノコウジ (source) Sorry, don't have time to do the romaji right now.

More or less, so far: BUCK-TICK - Dokudanjou Beauty cali≠gari - Overnight Hiking Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas - Hey Girl!! Why Not Party Like A Bitch!? GREGORY - DISGUISE ON TEAR KYOKUTOU GIRL FRIEND - Katte ni shiyagare MERRY - Crisis Moment MIYAVI - REVENGE munimuni - Papepopo Nega - The Heartless People SCANDAL - Shunkan Sentimental The Birthday - Digzero

I'd like to add the Hungarian bands Blind Myself (hardcore/extreme metal) and Stereochrist (stoner/sludge/doom) to the list. Intense headbanging material!

♥ Guniw Tools - Dearly dark Nap ♥

This.

I envy you!!!

Cool! Though I haven't even listened to their comeback album yet, lol.

I see, good to know! edit: Oh yeah, right, I read that just now (September 30). xD

Same for me! (though I like a few songs from their first mini as well) I really hope there'll be some seriously catchy/awesome tunes on their new one. *keeps finger crossed*

Thanks for the preview! Not bad so far... (but not too excited about the song either)

I think Down is one of the most awesome Non-Japanese bands I've seen live (those riffs! that atmosphere!). From the Japanese ones it has to be either MERRY (energy to the max!) or Miyavi during his KAVKI BOIZ tour (so much fun, and lots of jamming!). Judging by DVDs, Maximum The Hormone is one pretty amazing band to see live.

The ballad is not bad (though I rarely like slow songs). Anyway, tracklist is out, as well as the cover for the 5th song. Album title is Mastermind. 01. Mastermind (01:35) 02. 숨 (Breath) (03:31) 03. V.I.U (Very Important U) (03:06) 04. Break Down (03:35) 05. 주먹을 꽉 쥐고(Clenching a Tight Fist) (04:02) Can't wait!!! edit: added song lengths from Yesasia. According to them, the expected physical release date is October 5. Clenching a Tight Fist cover:

I rediscovered my love for Full's projects (Guniw Tools, Nookicky, and especially Shilfee and Tulipcorobockles). I think this guy is seriously underrated nowadays, compared to all the awesome stuff he did/does: making such wonderful music, all the inspired videos and artwork he creates... has become an obsession of mine these days, I think. At times like this I just wanna listen to everything by him, lol. Maybe I'll do a Guniw Tools PV watching marathon on the weekend. Should be pretty trippy.

Tomoyasu Hotei (guitarist/vocalist) has pretty good English skills, I think.

The Doors - Love Me Two Times

Awww, too bad. I kinda liked them.

I think maybe MALICE MIZER's Beast of Blood (that always seems to work) or some Dir en grey, or Gazette. But it all depends on the personal taste of whom I want to introduce the music to, I guess.

Update: Hermit Paean will be an album, and will be released on September 30. Tracklist: 01. 水玉王宮 02. 墓石 03. 血脈の祭り 04. Flies over the too free 05. 学びも貧愛 06. 家庭内最強母子家庭 07. 春民の戸惑い 08. 怪我燕 09. 追火 10. Windy park I think there's one old song in there (08. 怪我燕), the rest is new! Can't wait!

Ehh weird... I hope this doesn't set back the band so much; they're too good!

Awesome MVs and comeback stage!!! I'm 100% pleased.
