anakuro 847 Posted October 13, 2015 Agreed. I was surprised by his voice when I first heard it and it was what drew me into Belmosaic and then when they broke up it was one of two reasons I wanted to go to the session lives--I was so worried kazuki and roji would just disappear after a while(._.; kazuki continues to amaze me though with his vocals. I think it's better than his work in Belmosaic, too. 1 Chi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanivani 558 Posted October 13, 2015 ^ Kazuki is an amazing vocalist! It's nice to hear some good singing in the visual kei scene. (VK's kinda known for its shitty vocals.... lol) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anakuro 847 Posted October 13, 2015 I'm turned off by a lot of VK vocals, yeah. So Kazuki is pretty refreshing--and like I said he is one of the two main reasons I've stuck through the years. Roji is also an incredible drummer. He's the best I've seen out in the past three years of going to lives. For those of you who haven't seen these videos, Roji uploaded two videos he took from his laptop during Belmosaic times (you can download them too!) https://realtimes.real.com/s/AZvIYS→ RPG @ Fukuoka DRUM-SON (2014.08.10) https://realtimes.real.com/s/AzX1ZS→ Mimic @ Okayama IMAGE (2014.08.09) They're not the most impressive performances I've seen by him but they are the best videos of him drumming that we've got so far! 2 Shir0 and doombox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

doombox 4421 Posted October 14, 2015 Yuki tokei is gorgeous, both video and song. ♥ I like their heavy stuff but they are amazing at ballads. Also yay for drum videos! You can still tell he's really solid and his meter is pretty damn on-point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anakuro 847 Posted October 14, 2015 I love it too ＼(^o^)／ Though at the beginning there's a part where Kazuki's voice was edited a little strangely I think? Still it's a great song(*-* ) I love when he gets excited and starts standing up while drumming lol I wish there were more videos of him drumming. I love watching it 1 doombox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doombox 4421 Posted October 14, 2015 *uses as excuse to listen again* I didn't catch the editing, maybe it's more obvious when you've heard it live? The guitar in this gives me so many Mucc vibes. I love it. Hahaha aww cute. XD And dat arm porn. Someone must pester him for more drum videos... but who?? XDDD 1 anakuro reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anakuro 847 Posted October 14, 2015 it's near the beginning. I haven't heard it live yet! (they played tulip for the first time today and I wasnt there ahhh) I noticed it in the previews before it's at like 1:08ish. And then around 1:29 when he says 連れていってよ it's a similar thing. It feels like the vocal track cut out a little or something for a very brief moment? not sure Roji's pretty great to watch tbh. He does a lot of things that just keep your eyes glued on him (or at least my eyes lol). And even when he drops a drumstick or has to dive way to the side to catch one he doesn't miss a beat. it amazes me. omg his arms are so amazing i am so glad they're not doing suits anymore. Bless shinitai outfits for actually showing his arms off. I would bother him but he never listens to me :') 1 doombox reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shir0 1303 Posted October 14, 2015 such a beautiful ballad *-* 1 anakuro reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yakihiko 1480 Posted October 14, 2015 Great ballad song, it's nice to see they can make a lot of consistent song and releases with so small time from each other. 1 anakuro reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanivani 558 Posted October 14, 2015 Amazing.... Lyrics are so beautiful... PV is so beautiful... Kazuki is so beautiful... hehe This is by far my favorite song of XAA-XAA's... Nice to see a song that's longer than 3-minutes lol 1 anakuro reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anakuro 847 Posted October 16, 2015 Heads up: if you want to buy any XAA-XAA stuff all stock is gone from Osaka stores. I just went to everything today to see. I think only tokyo, nagoya and sendai *might* have kowai kurai, doshaburi no kanojo and/or shinitai. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrenGun 2261 Posted October 16, 2015 nope tokyo is all sold out too. only the new one is still up to pre-order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BrenGun 2261 Posted October 21, 2015 Here new flyer https://twitter.com/kazuki_xaa/status/656789539508191236 repress single is also on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anakuro 847 Posted October 21, 2015 That's actually a big panel they have at zeal link, not a flyer. They might have new flyers though. But personally I haven't seen new flyers yet--we were still receiving shinitai flyers on the 15th. It says for the re-recorded single "usotsuki" ワンマンライヴ会場限定発売 which is "oneman live live house limited release" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrenGun 2261 Posted October 21, 2015 Well I guess that one is going to be a new flyer. often flyers and such panel things are (almost) same looking. Let's hope that everyone who will go to that one man can grab a copy of the one man limited single. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anakuro 847 Posted October 21, 2015 The flyer probably will look like that, but they haven't said anything about a new flyer yet (they often post a version of it) and I haven't seen it. So, we'll just have to wait and see. My game plan is to set my bag down in my spot and then run to the merch table tbh...I wonder if it'll be like 鬱くしき雨音 where they had piles and piles left over or if it will sell out this time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrenGun 2261 Posted October 21, 2015 Well if there where many left overs for 鬱くしき雨音. I guess they will have a lesser stock this time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anakuro 847 Posted October 21, 2015 It's a bigger live this time though. If they limit it to under 200 stock (it was 200 for 鬱くしき雨音) and it does sell out that means that most definitely not everyone will be able to get a copy since osaka MUSE's cap is 350.

yakihiko 1480 Posted November 19, 2015 So guys, what do you think about last single? Honestly, I do like only Yuki Tokei... the others didn't catch my attention so well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duwang 676 Posted November 19, 2015 Yuki Tokei is fantastic. Tulip is fun but I'm not a fan of the weird sounds?/voices? that remind me of Alvin and the Chipmunks in the chorus. Waraitai kedo Waraenai is ok until the weird gap of silence 3 minutes in only to have the song end chaotically/with Kazuki coughing his lungs out a minute later. They could've just ended the song at 3 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrenGun 2261 Posted November 19, 2015 I love them all I think its a very good single. review will be up later.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vanivani 558 Posted November 19, 2015 Thought the single was pretty good~ Personally find myself liking "Shinitai" minialbum more, but it's still good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
