are there any active ones, or you're referring to MASK holding re-burial nostalgia onemans etc?..

Mask and Nana re-burial onemans aren't Kote-Osa anymore since they're not dressed the part(Same with with Ayabie or whatever the hell they want to call themselves).

Ziggrat at the top of my head is the only Kote-Osa band around and no one gives a fuck about that band besides me.

JACK+MW just disbanded and they were Kote-Osa and AMONOVA(sp?) and they only just disbanded last month; Matilda had "いただきます。",  which was a Kote-Osa song (obvs 愛狂います。rip-off), and they had the look. Then they went with the current Uniqlo/H&M while visual look. Paradeis was the last big Kote-Osa band, and it's been 9 years?

So my guessing since reviving Kote Kei was a thing for a while, the next wave of Kote-Osa bands are gonna come by and we'll get those poppy kote kei songs again.

TL;DR

Osare has been dead for over ten years >.> It's Kirakira. Osare-->Neo Visual-->Kirakira. I just want to Clarify that. The only remnants of Osare is Kote-Osa kei bands that are popular(or kinda still).

I know a lot of albums without booklets. I liked the song, so I bought it >.> but 7 months until a full album T.T

Well anyways I think it's a hate crime that they haven't released a music video for Pictionary, a remix, or anything related to their best song. If you end your set with Pictionary almost all the time, sell the fuck out of that.

Lossless, or the least I will go for is 128kbs if I don't own the CD or if it's a rare or a demo tape. If you go listen to Girl Goomie's only two song they gave out for free, you would want to rip your ears out at how bad it sounds. If they gave a higher bitrate, the songs would definitely sound better. I also converted my best friend into a lossless listener. I bought him a pair of Sennheiser's for his birthday and he was blown away by all the sounds he never heard in songs he listened to; and realized why I always prefer Hi-Fi man lossless player vs an iWhater or Android. Of course I'm not crazy, so I use my Momentum's on the go, cause I'm not gonna carry a DAC and 1k headphones around.

If I recall correctly(This is 12 years ago and I'm in my 30s so my memory is blotchy) they did have full PVs because a friend of mine sent them to me when they first came out. I think it died with my hard drive when I dropped it(but I can ask my other friend if he has them, since we were in the same circle and we shared shit all the time.)

I literally was shocked then I realized it's still April Fool's Day. I was not ready, now it's just a disappointment, but hey, 8P-SB still bops so haters can exit stage left.

I'm so out of the loop I didn't know Tetsuya left lol. He probably got head hunted by Tenten to reform MBHI, since Tetsuya was the main song writer(we all know Re:My BACTERIA HEAT IsLAND was a mess that only Tenten did). I can only dream, it's been 5 years...

I would have chosen Balloon, Smile, or Tyrannosaurus. Those were the best bops on the album to make a MV to.  

BICTH finally they offcially released Dream Rush!!! It's my favorite song of theirs!!

It was a tokuten instore purchase only on one day at like an Edison 5 years ago! Now I can hear the recorded version! Fuck yes!

Both albums are now up for pre-orders on Cross Cat. They were never sold out.

Awesome news, btw you can stream their latest single if you didn't buy a physical copy yet

I love that they're on top of the digital game and since I ship all my physicals in one go.

I just dislike the general I don't like X music, because Y music is superior and you just don't understand because you're a pleb. Or the constant bashing on pop music in any kind by "Rock/Metal" fans. If people opened up their mind to other music whole heartedly, they'd find more enjoyment than just listening to a genre a music. Constantly listening to only a certain genre after a while grates my nerves. Hell, I didnt think I'd like Nu-Metal, and then I found my current favorite band, and their sound in the beginning was Nu-Metal oriented(they since ventured off into different directions), and if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have open the possibility of trying more bands affiliated with that genre or gave them a chance. 

This is actually pretty good! This is how you do djent kei.

I'm cringing so hard at this. I wonder if their Kao fans are gonna support this.

I bought it yesterday on iTunes and starry night shouldn't have been changed. Everything else was great! loved future past. Gonna buy the physical copy when I get paid Friday.

Back when I was little girl I always wanted to hear: Pop'n'roll 3rd, Rusty, Lemon☆Squash, Sazae the Movie, MAG, Bullet Mark, ＄ウォンテッド＄, and everything テディ released with えぼし that will never probably see the light of day.

Hey, just saw this thread. If you're going rare hunting and run into SPUN!'s Starry Night, the Vambie.'s round&loop, or MIMIC's first two mini-albums; I would gladly throw money at you.

I prefer the old Starry Night, everything else can stay. Matador I loved. I can hear it an event(in my french vanilla fantasy).

I immediately noticed the change in key in the song, the tempo is still the same, but the little autotune tweak on Koichi's voice isn't that noticeable, but he has improved a lot. 

I have that same Diesel jacket as Genki but in a different color. And is he wearing hideous True Religion jeans?

Koichi looks fab.

Also looking foward to this release as the last few ones has nothing but bop after bop, except entry and 8bit boy, flight plan honestly should have been the music video for that single.

Reminds me of when Jimmy was in LAVERITE, except more polished. Gunnar looks like he signed up for a power metal band, but he got this gig, and was like fuck it, it's a job.

Demachi is NOT straight up stalking if the band is okay with it. Some bands actually have/had a well established tradition of doing demachi after lives, although it's not that common anymore.

Sorz I found it weird to wait for bands. Maybe that's the introvert side of me, since I'm super shy at first. Sorry if I offended you.

Mejibray is gone.  tzk and Koichi have been barred from the VK scene. So it is like that. They can't be in both at once lol

Maybe one day we'll see them again in a rock project, but I think their days in vk have ended. 

I know. I've watched the last live DVD. It was one of the most heartbreaking things I've seen. That's how I knew how much it meant for them.

I feel like I'm being called out by this thread. Stanning a band is basically you devoting yourself to them(in my case) supporting the fuck out of them because you love their work and what they do. 

I basically have a shit ton of Panic Channel chekis, FULL EFFECT' chekis, and DragonWAPPPPPPER. I have every single アー写 Panic Channel has every put out and every releases sans 3 VHS tapes that are like impossible to get. I have アー写 from FULL EFFECT' that hasn't even hit the light of the internet because they're so indie. I bought 6 copies have each of their last two albums. I bought DragonWAPPPPPPER's limited 20 remix CD for almost $300. I have goods like towels, shirts, and hoodies I don't wear because I don't want to lose any of them. I own all their releases including a few live limited goods that are near impossible to find. 

That's what I think of stanning. Like if you are basically stalking the band like demachi or irimachi, then you're on another level that's not stanning.

Everyone has different music taste, it's totally understandable. I just can't fathom getting intensely mad at 2 individuals doing their thing that they love. If they didn't have passion in making music like this, they would have stopped and done other things akin to their liking.

And it's not like they can't be in both Meji and 8P-SB. Look at Sonny Moore, he's cash grabbing the teen angst era by rejoining From First To Last and still doing Skrillex. It just pisses me off that they fired Spencer.
