nekkichi 6043 Posted May 31, 2015 I'm not digging the entire wave of hipster-ish looks in VK, this looks exactly like that 12012 produced band that just popped out, but always excited for new merry!! inb4 deathmetal single and dir en grey covers realness sound, August release lol this could potentially sell in north america, though, so idk. they can always come back with more VK-ish looks for next singles, and concert attire as well. slay, eroguro kings.

*littlelamb 78 Posted June 1, 2015 According to the description on the official site, it'll be a classic Merry retro song with a catchy melody, but the lyrics are about the sense of well-being in present day Japan. That's a nice change, since the last album was all about what's wrong in Japanese society. Can't wait! 3 Ada Suilen, nekkichi and NICKT reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jigsaw9 6783 Posted June 1, 2015 ^ He's been ill for quite a while now, he had some sort of damage to his neck at one of the shows iirc. edit: to quote Trombe: Ba.テツ(tetsu) has been diagnosed to suffer from cervical central cord injuries, and it takes 3 months for his full recovery This was in 2013 October tho... hope he'll be better soon. (I think I've heard they only let him play the encores at shows for now) 1 Mihenno reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Brilliant!" i have no problems with any problems with merry . i am actually ok with a photo with gara smiling - (besides, they've been smiling before) just bring new materials and bring back tetsu .

Furik 832 Posted June 26, 2015 I'm not one to care about visuals but MERRY was always the band that had such a unique look. Like Gara always being barefoot or the suit and tie look. The pulled it off best. But this... This along with their last video with all the guest stars. This "era" sucks. I liked their last album. A lot. Way better than anything they've released the past years but they need to get it together with this average look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
