Mamo 1172 Posted November 12, 2016 (edited) What can I say really say, both of these bands are indie vk legends, both are/were on Anarchist Records, both are 90's vk bands, both have hardcore punk metalish style, and both are basically session bands even though 妃阿甦 isn't supposed to be technically. So now the question remains who is better? 妃阿甦 Vs. ∀NTI FEMINISM Fight! Edited November 12, 2016 by sume7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
patientZERO 1066 Posted November 12, 2016 ∀NTI FEMINISM was always a "stage antics" band for me. I couldn't find myself listening to their music unless it was live and even then, it took second stage to Kenzi's weird lightbulb smashing, barbwire rolling, bloody mess. Plus, I think the history behind THE PIASS is super interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted November 12, 2016 ∀NTI FEMINISM is somehow closer to my heart, with their raw hardcore punk sound, and of course their magnetic/crazy frontman Kenzi. That said, I prolly couldn't remember any of either band's songs even at gunpoint, lol. 1 Mamo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ikna 1225 Posted November 12, 2016 The piass for me. Never cared much about Kenzi and his bands (though I should listen to them more). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeus 7997 Posted November 12, 2016 ∀NTI FEMINISM took this one for me. Kyousouroku is a legendary release a step above 妃阿甦, and THE PIASS hasn't done anything since 2007. ∀NTI FEMINISM is a rotating door of band members, but it's a session band. Everyone that leaves the THE PIASS does so under...less than optimal circumstances. Now that it's got members from THE EIGHT I'm expecting no new music anytime soon. 1 Mamo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Japanese word feminism used to mean "man who dresses feminine", and apparently Kenzi didn't like dresses and stuff in vk. He actually was questioned about the band name during their EU/US tour and he said he had no idea that feminism had a different meaning in the west. Anyway, musically I don't really care for either of them. But i've seen both live and AF are better live then Piass, so AF. 3 Mamo, crossparallel and TomoMAD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ikki 807 Posted November 12, 2016 TBH, I really don't care for either bands. I only went with Anti Feminism because they sometimes still release new stuff once in a blue moon. 7 hours ago, Uglymouth said: They really don't though. It's a misunderstanding.

I'm really surprised that a lot of VK fans didn't know that. One of the reasons why Kenzi hated the feminism image in VK is because when Kamaitachi went majory, Toy's Factory forced him to be the feminine character in Kamaitachi. 2 Takadanobabaalien and crossparallel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dude I didn't know this myself and I've been listening to them for years but it makes sense. Thanks for the info. It's also extra weird sense I think most vk bands just choose their names for no reason at all.

TomoMAD 256 Posted November 13, 2016 I love THE PIASS and Takayuki, the history about that band is soo dark, but!!!... although i love both bands, for me ∀NTI FEMINISM is the best, Kenzi and Takayuki are amazing! i love when Takayuki was in ∀NTI FEMINISM, in these years Kenzi keeped with life this band, but Takayuki with THE PIASS doesnt have much activity.. 1 Mamo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just realized that Kenzi must have changed his mind recently in regards to this opinion, because this is from 2015: Look awfully feminine to me. lol Not that I mind I'm just saying kind of contradictory to the idea that he doesn't like dresses and stuff. lol Edited November 13, 2016 by sume7 2 crossparallel and TomoMAD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
