SlickWicked 0 Posted March 24, 2012 Hello. I am Riley. Hey I remember you and you! Its been years, I was big into TW in 08 when I actually was pretty crazy about VK and Jrock, but after a while I kind of got bored of it, and thus stopped posting and stuff. But now I'm getting into it again, hopefully the music's changed for the better (ugh a lot of the bands from 10-11 were epic shit) so I'm just looking around for new stuff from bands I used to like. Things sure have changed though! Nice to meet all the people that have joined throughout the years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prophet 168 Posted March 24, 2012 Yo~ Welcome abroad! I am a Remnant of TW as well. Tho I don't think I remember you. And I totally know that feeling, seems like most of us have that "Hiatus from VK" moment, I myself have been through that a while ago. But VK releases are not bad these days I ensure you. Galeyd, Mejibray, A (Anonymous Confederate Ensemble) are some of new VK bands which I believe will be worth your time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaye 296 Posted March 24, 2012 Came from TW aswell and yes, the "hiatus" is all too familiar. Welcome back then! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yasupon 18 Posted March 25, 2012 Nice to meet you! Galeyd, Mejibray, A (Anonymous Confederate Ensemble) are some of new VK bands which I believe will be worth your time. These are good new bands, also add in Signal. If you explain what kind of vk bands you prefered back then (Oshare, Visual, Harsher style visual, etc) then I can try and help you out on getting into good new bands Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SlickWicked 0 Posted March 25, 2012 Oh well, in terms of what kind of type of VK/Jrock I liked... Asaki (No. 1 favorite) *Saruin (No. 1 1/2 favorite) Buck Tick (No. 2 favorite) but mainly their earlier stuff Kozi (No. 3 favorite) *Malice Mizer Moi Dix Mois D *Distraught Overlord Nega *Rentrer en Soi *9Goats Black Out Baroque OZ lynch Kannivalism Julius Despairs ray Clearveil Kaya Versailles Megamasso Sid Mucc *Lareine Lolita 23q Hizaki Grace Project The looks are an important part of the whole VK thing but lately I've been feeling like they're putting too much work into the appearance as opposed to the music. Partly the reason why I stopped listening. Not to mention nearly all my favorite bands disbanded.* D: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prophet 168 Posted March 26, 2012 Awww, our tastes are a bit different. But I love some of the bands you mentioned above. -Oz-, Lynch., and Versailles are quite active, so that's one thing you should look forward to. And answering your comment regarding the appearance/look, this is Versailles' new look in case you don't know yet. XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pretsy 1343 Posted March 26, 2012 Buck Tick (No. 2 favorite) but mainly their earlier stuff *9Goats Black Out Baroque OZ lynch Kannivalism Mucc *Lareine You are okay in my list and welcome...back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nekkichi 6043 Posted March 26, 2012 Not to mention nearly all my favorite bands disbanded.* D: I'm afraid you'll be largely unimpressed by todays VK (mejibray on a list of decent bands says lots about grade of the scene's stagnation), but baroque are back as of 2012. haven't been a fan of their comeback material, but it's better than nothing. lynch have been really strong recently - if you haven't listened their latest album, give it a try, it's awesome. if you liked RES, grab sucksucky's solo projects singles and mini - but lower your expectations beforehand, it's a major step down from any RES era work, except for 3-4 songs (and one of the good ones is composed by Mika, their drummer, lowering Suck-chans potential a bit more.) kaya, the true empress of dead and living, gay and straight, cosmic and earthly, is doing better than ever, but diehard fans may argue.

I have been unimpressed, that's partly the reason why I haven't been into it lately because I'm stuck in the earlier stuff and I keep comparing it to the new stuff. Sad life. But I love Kaya! Looking forward to that, at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SlickWicked 0 Posted March 26, 2012 Hey there.I think I remember you. Hey! Yeah, I keep leaving and coming back. I'm like "well the new stuff can't be this bad..." and then it usually leads to "OH GOD WHAT THE HELL IS THIS CRAP?!" I think now I just miss it too much. :c Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
