Bunny 1140 Posted January 28, 2015 When a major VK band don't even have enough money to buy cosmetic for make up ... no wonder they are going to disband .. 1 clow_eriol reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doombox 4421 Posted January 28, 2015 I wonder how much of this has to do with IV's retirement or if his retirement is because of the break up. But the recent stuff definitely felt more like them trying to please the label and the major market, instead of doing the music they got into this for. At least for IV and Ko-ki, the others all felt like "hired guns" from the start. I do hope to see Shin in another band soon though, because I only followed ViViD for him in the first place.

I am honestly hoping IV rethinks his retirement, he is the reason why I followed these guys, along with Ko-ki. You are right, the others did feel like "hired guns" but it was a great line-up from the start. I would like for IV and Ko-ki to continue working together (should IV forget about his retirement, a guy can dream right? lol) 1 doombox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I admit, I'll be sad to see him retire too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Funny, you saying "hired guns" reminded me about the rumors running around during their formation, that Shin was headhunted from RHYOLITE by IV, that already had an agreement with PSC to form a new band under their management. Dunno if that was true, but made a lot of sense... I was pretty mad at Shin for destroying RHYOLITE, they had an INCREDIBLE lineup. Eventually my hatred calmed down with their great earlier releases, but couldn't care less for later works. Hope he can find his feet again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IV and Ko-ki had a deal and headhunted the others or already had them as support. I was never really mad at Shin because he was replaceable? I don't understand why they didn't just find another vocalist, but I was sad to see Rhyolite fall apart. Tsukasa is another one of my faves for a long time and he was floating in the wind for a while there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnesh 52 Posted January 30, 2015 A bit sad, if altogether unsurprising. Their last album was a definite improvement on their first (if nowhere near their early releases) and it seemed they might be heading in the right direction. Ah well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
