hyura 465 Posted July 4, 2013 Last time I checked they were quite heavily attacked for a) copying Dir en grey and not wanting to be related to their ex-band anymore. But I think the western fans are once again much much more forgiving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seikun 317 Posted July 5, 2013 GRIEVA puts me in a tight corner, so to speak. I like most of their songs and I loved the preview to Amai unou, akai sanou, and now that I have already listened to it completely I love it even more, but at the same time it is kind of sad they are copying from Dir en grey this much. Even that song's PV seems a copy of Myaku PV. I think it won't be a good idea to keep doing this till the end of the band. It could be counter-productive in the end. I mean they should find inspiration in old school bands, but not copy them. By the way, GRIEVA say they are "the successors of the old good times", but Dir en grey isn't the only band that represented the old good days of Visual Kei. There is a great number of old Visual Kei bands they could get some inspiration too, such as Key Party bands. Anyone who knows japanese and has read blogs or forum discussions about GRIEVA's music, what do people say about their music? Sorry about my crappy english. Corrections are very welcome^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricchubunny 2013 Posted July 5, 2013 well, on tanuki they dont discuss at all, there's just a lot of comments like パクリ!!!!(plagiarism) はよ解散する!!(disband soon), 売れない (they don't sell) and stuff like that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yukami 5086 Posted July 5, 2013 If they do not like, do not listen! It's horrible saying things... It is one of my favorite bands and I love what they do! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bunny 1140 Posted July 5, 2013 グリーヴァ is outstanding for me , people shouldn't think they are copying other bands ,they have such a respect for older VK style of music , this is also their inspiration concept ,creating a band and composing so many great tracks aren't easy ,especially they have their strong skills to nail their instruments .No matter how many haters out there that don't like them ,refer to Yukami's comment : If they do not like, do not listen!I Love the way グリーヴァ are , Looking forward to their new music . 1 Yukami reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seikun 317 Posted July 6, 2013 Oh by the way. Have Dir en grey members said anything about GRIEVA? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
filth_y 189 Posted July 6, 2013 If they do not like, do not listen! It's horrible saying things... No matter how many haters out there that don't like them , Where do you see the hate towards the band in this topic? I thought everyone was enjoying their sound although pointing out the obvious partly plagiarism (which isnt "horrible saying things" when its true imo). You need to stop praising bands so much for things they dont do, even if you like listening to their music. Both ways "omg they are so bad" and "omg they are soooo good, so skilled, totally new" are stupid. Oh by the way. Have Dir en grey members said anything about GRIEVA? I highly doubt they comment or even listen to グリーヴァ or any vk lately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
