emmny 4139 Posted April 25, 2019 This is funny because dimlim is basically the one band MH agreed on since DEZERT and even the slightest indicator of them POSSIBLY going to shit is #triggering... edm-gate is wild hahahaha truely paranoia (they are basically the last band remaining in post 2017 vk that is listenable so I don't blame yall) 4 deadman, kuyashii, nullmoon and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deadman 321 Posted April 25, 2019 2 hours ago, saiko said: Sure it's common, but something being "common" isn't necessarily and indicator of "goodness" for itself. In my case, it never came as something "good" to me the insistence of bandoman on using cringe-worthy EDM curtains. And sure, that could be a good indicator of the bands composing skills, along with other stuff that may show the lack of inspiration, like the rising dependence on formula-stuff for the whole work (music, visuals, lyrics, live performance, etc.). So, yeah, we can agree on oneself actually waiting for the release to have an opinion, but... man, look at the sloppy EDM and horrible video editing those PVs have. At least the hair and make-up work are pretty gorgeous... I really hope that the reason behind this is actually low budget. Btw, there are really few examples of actually well crafted and used EDM in the scene. I agree, its poorly made, what I mean "common" is that these S.E. doesn't indicate any musical direction change, it's just V kei cliche. Sorry for my broken English😝 It also not a good indicator of their composing skills, at least not fully. These two genre require some totally different skills, so even some of the talent composer in the scene fail to do it well. It really show how little budget they are. I like vanitas PV the most, but compare to issei era's PV production value (Vanitas=white background+couch/Issei era pv=location shooting+studio shooting+actress), you can literary tell how much mitsu money issei is received.😂 1 saiko reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nekkichi 6043 Posted April 25, 2019 (edited) I get that all of you made the right choice and deleted the electronic cheodara intro from your playlists, but let's not pretend those edm tracks are worse than the average vk BGM fare 7 hours ago, deadman said: (Vanitas=white background+couch/Issei era pv=location shooting+studio shooting+actress) 愛憎につき… video had two actors + they didn't look like clowns so their costume budget evidently got upgraded??

V kei bands love using these shitty EDM for S.E. for loooong time. Even Dimlim have being used these kind of music for promo video for a while. This one was really cool. I really wish they used this instead of the absolutely pointless SEs on Chedoara. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saishu 1589 Posted April 27, 2019 I desperately want there to be an interview with someone from Dimlim where they’re asked “why the weird SEs?” and the answer is “cuz Sukekiyo did it.” 1 2 Kabukichoatmidnight, kuyashii and Komorebi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kyo_Toriko 537 Posted August 18, 2019 DIMLIM revealed their new look and announced a one-man live on Sep. 20. I think we can take it that they're going to continue forward with 3 members form. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ambivalentideal 183 Posted August 19, 2019 I'm a bit surprised about this new look from them, but I don't hate it! They look pretty cool. Really excited to hear about another album. Did anyone manage to get the live limited release? I'd kill to hear those songs right now 💀 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheZigzagoon 670 Posted August 19, 2019 @Duwang do you remember the setlist they played at O-West at all? I’m hoping some video footage surfaces, im assuming the band doesn’t/didn’t have the funding to record it for a DVD release? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ambitiosus principles 5. 怒 6. …物狂ひ…なりて 7. 愛憎につき… SE. EXORDIUM 8. 哀 9. GROTESQUE 10. D.Hymnus SE. 狂の理 11.「人」と「形」 12. 離人 13. 楽 14. シガラミ Encore 15. Ambitiosus principles 16. vanitas And the live ended with a short MC from Sho wishing Ryuya and Taishi the best in their future then the announcement video that's now on Youtube. I didn't see any video cameras, but there was someone up front taking photos throughout the live. Maybe the band will post some of them in the future? I was up front so idk if anyone in the crowd took videos. Probably not, though. Also, completely unrelated. I don't know if any of you noticed but they deleted the PVs for アハレワタ, 初潮, and THE SILENT SONG off their Youtube channel. I like those songs, but imo I think it's for the best. After all DIMLIM's a completely different band now. 1 1 1 WhirlingBlack, TheZigzagoon and nekkichi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sleepy coffee 1476 Posted August 19, 2019 Although Retsu and everyone have vastly improved since the silent song I am a little sad about them removing that. I do also dig all the issei era stuff but I could live without it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
