Good news!

Awesome!!

Cuties~

Hmmm... during the process of transferring all my music to a new laptop I took the time to delete some music I've gotten sick of, and most of it was from vk bands I've listened to for years. Still listen to plenty though, so I guess it could be said that vk still does it for me. I've gotten bored with the visual aspects of most vk bands I listen to though. Meto is one of the only dudes who keep it interesting. As for the question of more shitty bands forming, sure there are, but as it's already been pointed out shitty bands of all types pop in and out of existence all the time. However, I feel like the shittiness of new vk bands is a bit more noticeable. With all the various (and mostly pretty lame) jrock news sources I've followed/subscribed/whatever over the years I'm always seeing this or that about new bands forming, and on the rare occasion I bother to check them out they usually suck, because they're new. New bands sucking is not really unusual, it just seems more emphasized because these bands are brought to my attention with much more frequency than any other kind of new bands. Could be just me though. And as for repetitiveness, I feel like I find more bands that sound similar to each other when I'm exploring the non-vk side of music. Again, could be just me still listen to plenty of them too of course.

Aww how sad T.T he's so cool...

Excited!!

Some stuff I got recently~ Dir en Grey - Dum Spiro Spero limited ed., Decade 1998-2002, 改 -Kai-, The Marrow of a Bone Limited ed., Withering to Death, Macabre Biosphia - Suicidal Diva Cocklobin - schnee

Lol at the shade he threw at the snk live action movie.

Wow lol. I wonder if this will be on a punk goes pop japan edition at some point.

Really like this song, and the pv is quite cool too!

Good to see it's nothing serious after all! Really wish they hadn't been so vague though ><

Sounds excellent!

Lol omg I got that too, I keep imagining what I would have thought if people looking like them showed up when I was a little kid and went horse-riding occasionally. It would have been beautiful.

The collab song sounds good, Kiryu sounds awesome, Royz sounds fairly boring, and Codomo Dragon could go either way depending on how the full version sounds.

I'm apprehensive about this >< I wish we could get at least some sort of information instead of just Karma's dark tweets...

Versailles - SFORZANDO

Today is full of bad news... I hope he can get better T.T

Noooooooooooo Karma T.T I hope he recovers soon....

I think an 8cm single is like those singles Dir en Grey released back in the early days that were in the tall cases? That's what I've seen them called anyway. But yeah, this is cool! Too bad it's live limited.

Too bad about the delay, but still looking forward to the album

Everything's looking super cool

^ I'd like to know too, I also googled and saw nothing that seems bad o,O But anyway, yay for the release and very nice new look.

Oh nice, this like the song shuffle thing on tumblr but cooler since you can comment on other people's lists Crazy Shampoo is the only band I like from the above list, and that's one of my fav songs by them! 1. DADAROMA - モルヒネ#2 2. The Gazette - ☆BEST FRIENDS☆ 3. Kissing the Mirror - Black Inferno 4. SiM - Same Sky 5. Asagi - Unknown 6. Awoi - モノクロ 7. 幽閉サテライト - 小悪魔りんご 8. MergingMoon - Lick the Dust 9. Megaherz - Das Tier 10. The Gazette - Clever Monkey I guess my favorite is the DADAROMA song, with Awoi and SiM close behind.

It sounds really good! I wish I could get one of those little pre-order bundles they have ><

This is a very fun pv~
