Also, the only stuff I really liked from GALEYD were their instrumental tracks (such as the op songs from the 2012 singles).

Agreed! I love Precious Heart and the op songs but the rest are sooooooo booooooring!

Totally forgot about 2.0...it's probably the coolest opening ever. So fucking badass

Hello, you sexy people! I'm not sure if I can do this here (if not, feel free to incinerate this post) but I'd just like to ask for some money XD

Earlier this year my best buddy's dad passed away from MND (which I'm sure you're now all aware of!). In honour of his memory I'll be running with my friend in the Birmingham half-marathon. I never do anything for charity because I'm a miser and i think it's a waste of time but I thought this would be a good way to pay my respects and raise some money for some research into this crappy disease.

If you'd like to support me I would be very grateful and my friend's family would really appreciate it. If not, then that's totally cool, usually I wouldn't donate either XD

For me, probably the best ever is Dir En Grey's 'Mode of Adam'. The way it kicks in is just plain astounding.

Plus, dat bass line

I'd also have put "Amber" from Dir en grey, but I feel like it wasn't really necessary to close the album. It's nontheless a very beautiful outro.

YES. I used to skip this song but the first time I listened to it properly it blew my mind.

Gets me every time.

SUCH a good song. Easily one of their best for me

I don't mind track 10 to be honest! I agree with Seimeisen though; while Follow sounds awesome, the previews don't sound that interesting.

Oh! Oh! Mr Heaven by NoGoD!

I like this game

Thanks! Much appreciated

Thanks! I had to force myself to learn it to play Child Prey because it's a faster tempo but it seems too weird playing like that on slower songs!

Thanks though, I feel energised to get some more videos done pronto!

Thanks guys, your support means a lot i never really know if i'm any good so your encouragement is...really encouraging! XD

@Paradoxal - haha sorry, already taken! i found it really tricky at first but it just takes practice. Don't give up!

@digitalbounce - mine too, I love how the bassline takes centre stage! Yeah, Toshiya most likely picks up and down but i'm not too good at this at present with mid-tempo songs so i down pick for the whole thing! It's just the way I play currently thanks, i've learned quite a few of their songs over the past year so hopefully i'll find time to record more soon!

I have a bass guitar. This is a video of me playing this bass guitar.

Be gentle

It's hilarious; fans don't want to hear the same thing over and over again (e.g. Deathgaze), yet as soon as a band deviates from their sound the fans lose their minds (e.g. Dir En Grey following Kisou).

Although I'm not a huge fan of change it can sometimes be for the better (or in the latter case a change which is just as powerful and industry-impacting as their previous sound, albeit completely different). I think bands that actually dig themselves out of that pit of stagnation should be praised for actually working hard to improve themselves instead of settling in their comfort zone...

...although with that said, bands that simply go for a flavour of the month approach are exempt from this ;D

Definitely agree with Loveless, what a song

1) Sink - 9Goats Black Out - 

This is one of those songs that explains a band's soundscape immediately. Really beautiful song.

2) Utakata - Kagrra, - 

Ditto. One of the first J-Rock songs I ever listened to and it's simply perfect.

3) Vinushka - Dir En Grey - 

If we're missing out intros, we can count the song after right? This song is brilliant; it quickly raised DEG's game from their previous album I feel. Furthermore, it's one of their best songs.

4) Utsushiyo Horror Show - NoGoD - http://youtu.be/0MQkj6CCES0

One of my very favourites. Riff-heavy and with an awesome solo, this is one of their better recent tracks.

I don't listen to Sadie much.

But when I do, they sound EXACTLY THE SAME AS ALWAYS XD

The new song sounds cool!

It's great to see that Akane is so good live...although I'm confused as to why the live footage was seemingly shot with the very first video camera in existence.

^ Agreed. I really enjoyed Monster but this sounds nom

Haha awesome, thanks guys It's nice to learn about the history as well

I've noticed this before underneath people's profile pics...and now it's underneath mine! Although honoured (?), what on earth is this? Am I now in a clandestine group of SEXY ELITE MEMBERS? XD

Compared to the rest of the band Shinya looks old. So very old.

I didn't realise the lyrics to this song were so cute, thanks!

Haha he has such girly legs XD

Sounds like pretty much any other Girugamesh song from the past few years....? It's like a slightly rearranged Zantetsuken.

Mochi

men have festivals dedicated to blowing up gigantic balloon penises and celebrating their triumph over a demonic vagina with teeth.

Whut? XD

Your goodbye has lasted for almost a month.
