I got new glasses last week! My first brand glasses by Tommy Hilfiger haha. I love these so much, they are so huge compared to the ones I previously used! I wasn't even supposed to buy myself new glasses, but the shop had a sale and everything was -50% off...

Update:
 
All romaji lyrics are up For now you're likely to find mistakes here and there, but i intend to cross-check the Kanji lyrics with my booklets and comb through the Romaji again soon.
 
 

Me without my braces! /o/ Thought they looked weird at first, and I never expected to have such a nice (and not super wonky and confused!) set of teeth, so I'm really happy.

STATUS: IN PROGRESS
 
@Jiyunand I will be collaborating to provide Kanji, Romaji, and (eventually) translations for all of Purple Stone songs. Kanji and Romaji shouldn't take long too long; translations will be more of a long-term project however (you can blame my OCD for that..).
 
Below you can find hyperlinks to the lyrics of each song.

It's simple:
 
Is it ok to add a discography post to it's section (If it's not there) with links people provided here? And, if their links are dead, is it ok to reupload, but still, credit the original uploader on the disco topic?

PURPLE STONE.
 
I won't even start talking about Kabukicho butterfly, but recently I've fallen in love with Kaitenmokuba's B-sides. 浮キ世ニ咲ケ and アドレナリンBANG! are like freaking heroin for me, I can't stop listening to them. They are so catchy and just all-around perfect party songs. I want nothing more than hear these songs live some day. 

I think I can barely name 10 non visual j-rock bands...

After listening to this so many times, I had to...
 
Kanji:
 
1.  歌舞伎町バタフライ
 
 
02. RIVER (Type A)
 
 
02. パラダイス・ダンス (Type B )
 
 
ROMAJI:
 
01. Kabukichou BUTTERFLY
 
 
02. RIVER (Type A)
 
 
02. PARADISE DANCE (Type B )
 
 
I'll probably try to do all of their songs that's not translated to romaji yet...:'D

I don't use any physical Apple produts but I do have iTunes installed on my PC for the sole reason of buying that occasional digital VK release I absolutely need, but can't afford to buy a physical copy at the moment. 
 
I know I'm being just paranoid but now I feel so insecure by having even iTunes installed on my computer even though it's pretty clear that by only having iTunes this can't happen. Fortunately I already have two online back ups of my music library (CrashPlan + Google Play Music), but now I'm sure I'll buy an additional external hard drive and perhaps set up an off-site back up at my parents' place with CrashPlan. 
 
But even though I barely use any Apple products, I'm fucking furious about this. Just the thought of someone touching my FLAC collection, encoding them to AAC and deleting the original local files makes me wanna kill people. Multiple people. In very violent and unique ways.
 
EDIT: ALSO PEOPLE, BACK UP YOUR SHIT AND HAVE THREE UP-TO-DATE BACK UPS AT ALL TIMES.

TL;DR: Apple Music might upload your local music files to their servers, encode them to AAC 256 kbps and remove the local copies.

Wow, that's pretty disgusting. I never planned on using Apple Music. I'm still not even a fan of Spotify. I like owning copies of my music. As if hard drive failures and power surges weren't already nightmare enough for digital music fans, then a program can help itself to your files and take them away from you just like that. I already stopped buying Apple products (like ipods) because I had multiple issues and their "genius" staff were not only ill informed on their own products but also rude. And if I could find a better alternative to move away from iTunes for buying digital music, I certainly would. 
 
Thanks @peffy for reminding me to disable Apple Music Connect.
