Tetora

Hi everyone. I've been reading this forum for a while, but now decided to uncover myself.
 
English is not my native language.
 
I've been listening to vkei for 5 years already. My fav. band was Cindykate, too bad they disbanded. I also liked Aicle, And, Deluhi.
Now the band I like the most are Capella, Codomo Dragon, Jackman, Yeti, Annabyss Coast.
 
Yoroshiku onegaishimasu.

mucc has never disappointed me , even 'karma' album .
and has not disappointed this time either

I think it is very cool. Like the funeral, and their look, song is nice too, lyrics are interesting.
暁歌水月 is a pain to type though!

i has see them in 2008, and was one of my best live; bad for Rika because i was the chance to talk with her before and after the live and she's really nice.
Unfoertunatly because they don't come in a town next to where i live, i can't see them in live, but if you can see them, serious go to see, they are really good and have more energy in live.
 
Hope can have the chance to see them in future.

Thought I'd bring this thread back from the dead instead of creating a "post embarrassing old photos of yourself!" thread XD
 
I was looking for some old photos of myself to demonstrate to a friend my terrible lack of fashion sense/self-awareness and I stumbled upon this "gem"
 

 
...I was 18 in this picture. There are literally not enough excuses in the world to explain away something like this happening :'D I was a really goony goon as a teenager though, but unfortunately(or luckily?) I can only find one photo older than this and it's rather gay, so I'll keep that left in the bowels of the internet :v
 
To keep in the spirit of the thread though, here's a newer...ish picture of me. Luckily ゆうぎ was kind enough to take me under her wing and teach me how to dress not like a complete dork, so I'd like to say I improved XD
 

 
A bit over a year old, but that's probably accurate enough for how I currently look(I really miss those boots though )
 
Also: bonus totally awesome and not embarrassing kiddo pic

Just to mention;

This seems to be purely based on Facebook-shares so if you don't like facebook you'd better stay away - but if you don't mind sharing stuff over there (which is the purpose of a good street-team regarding online-promo anyways) this is a good chance to win the VIP-status for free...

Well, the tour already started a few days ago... I wonder why nobody is posting this stuff *sigh*. Guess I can't let this be the case as I really love these guys (sorry for being late here - I'm busy atm). Sadly Rika (the bassist) left the band in the meantime but I guess they're good enough even as a duo (drummer is either support-member or drum-machine - since the tour is named "2 do what 2 fetch" I guess it's a drum-machine/computer this time). I've seen them like 6 times already over the years and it was always a great experience (they're even one of the first japanese bands I've seen live)!

I liked it. Makes me look forward to the album even more.

Hey, Hi, Hello
 
I've been looking for some place I could talk with people about music, thought this might be a good place for it
 
About me
Well...  I'm 23 yo student from Poland, studying Applied Technical Phisics (lolwat) at Gdansk University of Technology
I love music, computer games (Playing mostly League of LEgends now), sport, esport, programming and some other things which I don't remember right now...
I'm a really strange person  (lol this emoticon)
 
 
now, about my music taste
I. LOVE. MIYAVI. He is my #1, and nothing will change that. Genius. 
 
besides him (if we talk about Asian music), I really enjoy listening to One Ok Rock, the GazettE, VAMPS, Hyde, Girugamesh, DELUHI (I miss them...), UVERworld (old albums), and few female artists like YUI (pls come back), BoA, Younha + bands like Girls Generation, 4Minute, Girl's Day... and so on 
 
If you are interested in more info about my music taste feel free to visit my lastfm profile
or my  'blog'  (not much Asian music here, but still some great artists/songs <3)
 
looking forward to meet some people I could talk about music
   
so. Hi, nice to meet you

I think my main issue with this is the word 'fired'.
 
It just, makes it sound cruel and horrible.
It's not that they just, y'know, got together and mutually decided that their progress was being halted by the man's illness or something, no, from what I can read, they just fired him.
That, in my opinion, is unjust.

I agree with smilesxchibi and Tetora.
 
Not only do I find it unacceptable, I think it's nothing short of a PR disaster. Under these circumstances, usually said member goes on hiatus to recover or leaves on his own accord (or at least, superficially, appears to do so).
 
Firing him outright one day after missing a live is just poor. At least they could have found a better-sounding excuse.

All I was saying is that the bassist may still have wanted to be a part of the band and that it was unfair to fire him rather than allow him time off from the band as a hiatus to recover. Obviously im not aware of what condition he is in, so I apologize if that I had said came off improperly.

It is as Tetora has said, I wish they would give a clearer explanation. I was looking forward to LICKER's activities and I was just concerned.

thank you! I've also done haru's costume from sunrize smile but I legit forgot to have people take my pictures at acen so I've got like hella derp ones..  
 
 
Sorry they're massive )':  but viva la dog 

Maybe I am unaware... I dont remember any promos like that, the ones I usually watch have the live sound so you are enticed to buy based on the live performance... As opposed to this which seems to be trying to entice people to buy simply based on how good they look?
Just how it comes off to me.

No idea why they switched to piped in sound? That obviously isn't live... Makes it seem like they sync which I am pretty sure they dont in an actual live performance, or they sounded bad .. Weird way to do the promo, hopefully it is meaningless.

hizumi is hot i don't know any girl who listen to jrock and don't like him. he is the only one that apparently everyone agrees they want him.
what is hot is Subjective
talking with friends that's what i know xD --->
what is hot is soo subjective in jrock fandom
except few examples that everyone seems to want to fuck /agrees they are hot (not my personal fav though just objective xD)
hizumi !!!!!!! most of all
reno from vivid
yun from Un=(XAG)
eros or masa from XodiacK
(haren)
( byou screw maybe
genki from vanessa maybe)
edit: i forgot KAMIJO

Anti-bullying ad shows the real revenge of the nerds

http://youtu.be/AqVfoZdYaDQ

Ive been bullied literally all my life. I was bullied in school , by "friends" , relatives , and even online. Hell , I even was a bully for second grade , untill one of my friends turned around and started bullying me....
I was always considered annoying , and still am! I used to really let it get to me and would be so depressed. Its still stuck with me  , and now , Im always super concious as to if I am annoying or not.
TO THIS DAY I am still bullied often. I dont allow it to bug me anymore because Ive learned two VERY important things about bullies.
usually , people bully you because , 1. they have some issues they are working through and have no idea of how to work through them themselves , so they take it out on other people , and 2. You are above them , so they are trying to knock you down to their level or lower.
I have lots of friends now who love me and do not think of me as annoying. I am doing EVERYTHING LITERALLY EVERYTHING I was made fun of and told I would NEVER be able to do.
A good thing to do,  is take the negative energy they bestow upon you , and use this to fuel your drive to become so so much better than they ever possibly could become.

I doubt anyone will read this, but it's always fun filling these out.
 

I think you answered your own question If you have a stable income it is very likely you are able to afford to buy a lot of CDs.
 
I think that at the moment I'm using probably 50-100€ per month to CDs. Though my only income is my student allowance, I've been using my savings a lot recently...
But once I really get to start my summer job full time I could easily spend almost 1000€ in CDs per month (without saving anything ofc). Not that I'm really going to do that even though I wanted to, in my opinion that's just insane I'll rather save for an apartment of my own and put some money aside for a possible Japan trip in the future or something.
 
But I think the thing with affording or not affording to buy CDs is just the matter of prioritizing - how do you personally want to use your money.

Sweet Haru cosplay. Very nice choice IMO.

VAMPS.
 
I love their song 'Ahead' and i cant stop listening to it.
