  1. Oh god my brother got another Shiba. Now we have 3 in the family lol in every color nonetheless.

  2. Well, at least it's not as lifeless like XIII was when you first listen to it. Sounds better for sure. My pizza metaphor still holds true lol.

    So my GF and I started watching this anime just randomly (as we normally do since we can never find something we both like lol) called Coppellion. So far I've only seen the first episode and it's decent but my GF has abandoned me and is now binging it. Anybody else seen this show? The ratings aren't that good on MAL but I figured I'd at least give it the old 3-episode rule before I decide.

    Well 2020 is going better than last year, but it looks like I'm going to have to put in some effort to make sure it stays that way. The job hunt begins again, cuz I can't work at another entry level job for the life of me. I'm simply appalled at the amount of work these poor bastards get dumped on them for essentially being scrubs, and they're contractors ffs. Just fucking glad I cleared 1-2 years of "required" experience (whatever the fuck that has to do for an entry-level position) to land jobs around my desired pay but even then I'm not sure how much Denver's job market has changed and if that will make finding something better harder or not. Ehhhh it's annoying, but at least I get to spend my last month at my current job with full access to MH again lol. Bittersweet.
  5. Little late but HYDE's newest album release is actually pretty good. 

     

    Not up to his old standards, of course, but a good addition to his modern style.

    Been a bit. Uh, well thus far I've spent more time trying to get my SO into video games, and that's some hard fucking work since she grew up on SNES classics like Mario World and Yoshi's Island, so EVERYTHING is new to her. We managed to get her on the PlayStation train, starting from the bottom with classics like Spyro the Dragon which she said was too open-world (lol wat) for her. We are currently on the Crash Bandicoot Trilogy that was remastered recently and so far she likes it, in a "this game fucking pisses me off that it's a simple platformer yet I can't manage to play it, fuck you" way of experiencing the game. That means that she's been somewhat been broken in to my experiences as a kid lol. I think next we are gonna go the either the RPG route, or story driven gameplay like the Last of Us, maybe even Horizon: Zero Dawn. Myself? Well, given the long as fuck backlog I have, I can't say. I might be more into the re-releases this year of games of yore like that MegamanZero Collection and that Vanquish/Bayonetta remaster. Gonna buy those depending on my budget lol.

    Going the ol' Fuki route, eh? Both a metaphor and literally by touring with her lol. Not gonna lie, I had no idea exist trace were still active.
  8. I’m on a 90’s VK binge as of last night, send help.

      Though fairly unknown to the Western fandom, Rouage is a KEY listening for everyone interested in the development of visual kei as a scene! Their stuff is very genuine; I still haven't heard it replicated in any band that came after.

       

      Btw, their A-sides are top bops! So catchy!

       

      Very interesting experience overall!

      If I had to rate my top 5 90’s bands, Rouage would most definitely be one of them out of the dozens of good bands back then.

       

      I may have more memories of the 00’s of VK, but I have to respect and acknowledge that the 90’s bands are unrivaled and many bands people idolize these days for being pioneers, actually got their image/sound from bands like Rouage, Kuroyume, Luna Sea, and the like.

  9. I swear I never get tired of listening to Fuki sing. Lol I say that a lot but it’s true.

  10. YuyoDrift

    Well they struggle because SONY can’t choose any good locations that don’t have their fucking name stamped on it. They simply don’t see a return on investing in smaller venues and would rather place the price of traveling and hotel stays to the fans. I know this applies to most cities but figured I’d mention that. NYC is a fucking mission to most Americans. Had they chose any Midwest cities like Chicago, Detroit, Milwaukee, and evening fucking Denver out west, they’d sell tickets quick. Dallas was a good spot because they border several states and even Mexico within driving distance.

    Never thought losing a $15 vape pen would bother me so much 😂 Whoever finds it: I hate you, but make sure to enjoy the find, I guess.
  12. YuyoDrift

    Bro I remember your post lol that’s too funny.
  13. YuyoDrift

    A little late to this (I'm busy, sue me) but Kizu fucking surprised me with this one. Is the singing style that mimicks Daisuke (Kagerou) w/ a splash of Hizumi (D'espairsRay) intentional or am I missing something here? Shit was cool, not to mention the odd lyrics haha.
  14. Ok, Kizu has my attention.

  15. Don't forget to get a head start on those rating lists this year!

     

    I forgot to mention this to you guys lol but its there when you're good to go.

  16. YuyoDrift

    You guys stan this shit hard lol.
  17. YuyoDrift

    Duh. Lol.

    How come no one has mentioned the absences that 2 instruments really made in that PV? I admire their decision to move forward as 3 members, but this lacked any character and with sho being the only color to the bands sound, I can’t see myself getting into this until they manage to find replacement members. I’ll agree that it sounded just like Rijin, just missing a huge chunk of sound, almost like listening to it with only one side of a headphone lol.

    Hmm, I'd say the accurate words to describe this show would be "Live-Action Animation Adapation" of the game series lol. First season was decent, at least enough to make you look forward to the next season. It doesn't represent the entire game series as a whole but it does reference on one of the more popular timelines (more well known and played by gamers).
  20. YuyoDrift

    Oh you saw the series too? What did you think of the last episode? Speaking of vampire shit, I barely find out that Netflix's Castlevania had a season 2. It was an experience alright lol. I mean, some episodes I was like "WTF happened to this series" and other times I'm thinking "omg these writers are trying too hard" (i.e. the battle music was too intense for the animation and that "trip" Alucard had towards the end of the last episode after someone died). It was OK haha.

Let's hope this new decade will be a return to form for the scene!

    Here we are yet again, the beginning of a new decade. Are we at the 5th year now? I forget. This thread is dedicated to Japanese releases in 2020 that the MH Community will listen to and would like to keep track of throughout the entire year. It’s a nice way of referring back to a list, should you forget if you’ve listened to a certain release yet or not. I know I forget sometimes haha. These ratings can also help those who may want to see which releases are favoring well or not, based on each individual user who you may have similar tastes with. Feel free to set up your own rating system (Stars, ?/5, ?/10, Best to Worst, Oooh to Eww, etc.), but try and use spoiler tags to save room in your post, and save room on the page for the other members’ rating lists. Keep this list in mind in the event that we, the MH staff, host a JRock Awards at the end of the year . Let those who participate know that we need to come back to this topic a few more times than we did last year (I did pretty bad lol). It could be our New Year's resolution or something 😂. Last Year's for reference: 2019 Yuyo’s List for 2020:

    I was wondering when this user was going to introduce themselves lol I saw the profile the other day. Welcome to the forum! Midwest Emo, like Detroit/Madison/Chicago origin shit or modern stuff? Not that I'd know too much about it, as I grew up in the punk rock scene in the 90's buuuuuut the cool kids did know about it.
  24. Only 3 days left to submit your votes for this year's MH JRock Awards! Don't forget!
