inartistic 1151 Posted January 18, 2012 Saw that this morning... Unbelievable! Guess they are trying to cash in on HIZAKI a bit (no offence to YOHIO). I wonder how his bandmates feel about this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shaolan974 6185 Posted January 18, 2012 Surprising ! But it's good for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sebbivism 134 Posted January 18, 2012 YOHIO is really talented guitarist, but I guess he just have got the right contacts. The fact that his dad is working on the same record label Seremedy is signed to in Sweden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBistroButcher666 228 Posted February 3, 2012 Incoming weeaboo hate machine. He's a pretty talented guitarist and if he composes music that I can dig I have no problem supporting him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder how his bandmates feel about this! According to himself they are going to continue with same speed with Seremedy, and the vocalist is releasing his own clothes brand apparently Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

According to himself they are going to continue with same speed with Seremedy, and the vocalist is releasing his own clothes brand apparently I can confirm that. They're doing many different things at the moment - actually with much success! Gotta respect them for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBistroButcher666 228 Posted February 4, 2012 What style of music do you think his debut will be? A metal-ish release? Hizaki and Versailles appears to be favourites of his and he obviously is heavily influenced by Hizaki so I'm curious if his debut will also be a symphonic-metal style release?

nuke 1 Posted February 4, 2012 he is... releasing his own clothing brand... i... have no words. this kid really knows how to market himself. as for his music, considering how he's got hizaki's look down to a tee, that is what i'm going to be expecting of his music too. i haven't really listened to his band's music much, so i guess we shall see.

nekkichi 6043 Posted February 4, 2012 you know you're rolling when you get picked up by universal at his age really curious how long he's gonna be around Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBistroButcher666 228 Posted February 4, 2012 you know you're rolling when you get picked up by universal at his agereally curious how long he's gonna be around That and like what sebbivism, his Dad works on the label that produces his current band. Also Japan loves white people, at least the media biz. A buddy of mine went over there to fulfill her dream of being a manga artists and while that flopped for obvious reasons she did a lot of TV commercials and media related jobs because she was an exotic foreigner and agencies constantly wanted her.
