Mora 86 Posted September 30, 2014 Sad to hear this.. good luck to Rui. Hope that Grieva won't stop and keep going without any hiatus and stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bear 1817 Posted September 30, 2014 It's a shame, but he's not a very unique or special drummer in any way possible so it shouldn't be very hard to replace him with someone who'll do just as good, if not better than him. Hope they won't disband because of something like this, though. No need for that, at least not musical speaking unless he writes a shitload of their music. 1 Zeus reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lestat 2167 Posted September 30, 2014 Their preference went out to disbanding first, but they'll continue as a four-piece band after heavy discussion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ada Suilen 652 Posted September 30, 2014 I am sorry for him... really hoping that they will proceed their activities... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeus 7997 Posted September 30, 2014 Their preference went out to disbanding first, but they'll continue as a four-piece band after heavy discussion. Good. They can get another drummer it's not the end of the world. 1 hitsuji-hime reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RED RUM 49 Posted September 30, 2014 they are part of Ains. Remember how quickly DIAURA got a new drummer? I guess it won't take THAT super long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peace Heavy mk II 7200 Posted October 1, 2014 Why would they disband after losing a drummer? Based on comment videos I've seen, it looks like their bassist is essentially "the leader" anyway, and for all intents and purposes the drummer was just member #5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seikun 317 Posted October 1, 2014 He is a very good drummer. He plays fast and steady. I wonder what problems made him decide to leave the band... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yukami 5086 Posted October 1, 2014 They've been together a long time (in Reload) hope this does not hinder the entry of a new drummer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ikna 1225 Posted October 1, 2014 That's really unexpected. I wonder what his reason is to leave the group (we will probably never find out). Thankfully he was "just" the drummer, so they should be able to continue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hitsuji-hime 211 Posted October 1, 2014 ^ It says it right on the first post... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ikna 1225 Posted October 1, 2014 ^yeah, sorry I have overlooked it. But with VK bands you never know if that's the true reason though. Anyway, I don't want to spawn a useless discussion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bryyodt 15 Posted October 1, 2014 Really impressive, i don't think that keeping the band as 4 members will be the best decision, they need a drummer like every band has it, it's very important such as musically works or band activities, but we'll see if they do the same thing as Diaura, working with a session drummer for live concerts, anyway i hope Rui had make the right desicion, at least the band will not disband at all.

seikun 317 Posted October 2, 2014 What a great influence family members seem to have on themselves (independent) grown-up people in Japan. Who knows what exactly is the problem that caused him to decide to leave the band... Considering how secretive japanese musicians are when it comes to causes for leaving a band or death of a member, stating that there is a family issue going on sounds like being very open to fans, in japanese terms... XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Takadanobabaalien 3607 Posted October 2, 2014 Actually I heard from some Japanese people that it is an easy way to get out of stuff (for example relationships), as Japanese people seem to respect, especially their mother a lot. Like "Sorry, we can't date.. My mom won't allow it" then it'll be shou ga nai basically. May be more younger Japanese ppl though, not sure lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kukew 87 Posted October 3, 2014 Ugh... that guy seemed cool... anyway hope the best to him since surely Grieva would get a new drummer fastly... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
