Karma’s Hat 3107 Posted September 18, 2013 Wasn't Invidie the one that made the Deluhi cover? Kill it with fire 1 IGM_Oficial reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
togz 2004 Posted September 18, 2013 OH MAN. Invidie ... I feel the musicians had some potential, but it felt rushed... like they couldn't keep up with the shredding man, but I was like "Just get in tempo get in tempo" then the singing started and all hope from there went south. T______T Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StriderSubzero 53 Posted September 18, 2013 That second one had some cool parts, but that band name... Pathetic Poupée? I know it's French but it sounds so ridiculous. Kind of like "Pathetic Toupee." The guitars in the Invidie song are so out of control. That shredding needs some work... 1 togz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoseOfHizaki 131 Posted September 18, 2013 Am I the only person here to think that V.K should only be a japanese thing because they do it so well? Its like being a weeaboo, a few people do it great where as the majority are just bad and get hated on but everyone. Theres nothing wrong with wanting to be like your idols though. though when you enter V.K you need a whole lot of stuff, not just talent and skill and it seems that Westerners arent born with the same 'ear' or the same creativity as Japan, Thats not to say that there arent any great or good western bands - there are millions. but for a western band to try and do V.K it just makes me cringe so bad inside. Ive only listened to seremedy, even though the production and mixing of their album/singles were perfect (thanks to Yohio's dad/contacts) but I fail to really see what was so great about them, I didnt like the vocals and I dont think very highly of Yohio even though id go as far to say id bang him when hes dressed like a girl but hes trying so hard to be Hizaki I rather then trying to be more original that i find him boring and rather spoilt as the studio and all the contacts that are pushing him onwards in the industry are his dads. Leave V,K to Japan!! 1 Umi_Niwa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
togz 2004 Posted September 18, 2013 Like I said (though I disagree with the statement) if they're not from Japan or Japanese they automatically suck. There was a local band named lucid in Southern California where I used to live. They sounded so bad so terrible! The vocalist struggle to stay in key when he did sing hurt my ears. But a lot of people showed up to their lives but not to vk influenced bands that sounded really good actually. In fact lucid was even put up for download on some really popular blogspot, and I don't think people realized they were located in America. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karma’s Hat 3107 Posted September 18, 2013 I actually thought Lucid was a half-decent bad Unsraw rip-off which itself is a tremendous step forward for Western VK, but then again the singer seems to only speak Japanese. Instrumentally they were doing more things right than any Scandinavian piece of shit vk band has ever done. And I love the singer :'D This I realise might not be everyone's thing because the performance is rough as fuck and a little bit campy perhaps, but I thought he had more charm than any other western vk vocalist thus far. Shame that they went to hiatus and the singer has moved to Japan as well iirc 1 Gaz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaz 1097 Posted September 18, 2013 haha, i like LuCiD too :'D and MUD's pv is kinda great? anyway, i've expected some catchy songs from them and was really disappointed about disbandment :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
togz 2004 Posted September 18, 2013 There's plenty of local bands in California that has the same sound as them and they were never recognized either though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
otterley_ 192 Posted September 19, 2013 So, what do you guys think of this: The song is Nostalgia by Sleep My dearI'm the one who sings though I don't really consider myself as a singer for obvious reasons *lol*I want to know what do you guys think so, we can get better 1 IGM_Oficial reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peace Heavy mk II 7200 Posted September 19, 2013 <3333 "nos・tal・gi・a" It was a little out of tune, but a very nice cover. That's more or less how they sounded at that point in their career, so, nailed it . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Umi_Niwa 31 Posted September 25, 2013 I think VK outside Japan can't truly work for a very simple reason- because of how this industry is run in Japan. Maybe with a few exceptions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jun_ 383 Posted September 26, 2013 If you didn't liked INVIDIE because of their vocalist, give a try with my voice...I changed the vocal line (with their ok), we'll be very pleased ^^ 1 IGM_Oficial reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sai 868 Posted October 7, 2013 Wait isn't that the article of which people claimed it was Kiwamu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBistroButcher666 228 Posted October 8, 2013 Oh jeez, that article? Really?? Hahaha I forgot all about that. I didn't know it was Kiwamu rumored to be the one that was interviewed but it wouldn't surprise me if it was him. Wait how could he be an executive in the 90s when back in the 90s was he even in a band or even taking part in the VK scene? Or was he in just a bunch of shitty sinking ship indie bands like Blue Berry before forming the clusterfuck that was BLOOD? Wait the fuck I don't even care... @Umi_Niwa Anyway, it's just pretty poor discussion to post a vague one liner with no backing to explain your reason and then the only defense is a link to an old and debunked article. 1 CAT5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
