K-x-H 76 Posted October 23, 2017 First, THE BLACK SWAN, now this one, seriously you've got to be kidding me they only started last year, but i guess t3b can do a revival. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jiyo 793 Posted October 23, 2017 Not very sad 'cause their music never enjoyed me like T3B does. But it's still bad news. Just hope to hear L elsewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shaolan974 6185 Posted October 23, 2017 The 3rd Birthday was better to me (and I also liked Amber Bullet more) but it's a bad news yeah. They are doing the O-WEST and then they will disband ?! What a shame ! I hope L will continue musical activities as a vocalist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shmilly 519 Posted October 23, 2017 I enjoyed T3B well enough but try as I might I couldn't get into Balalaika, despite picking up all their releases, including the mail-order version of The Mince. While it's a shame that they're disbanding, I can't say I'm too surprised. Also looks like I timed it well selling their stuff on Mercari lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lestat 2167 Posted October 23, 2017 Why, THE MINCE is probably my favourite mini album of the year. Weren't they doing well? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frayed 404 Posted October 23, 2017 I know whenever I went to see them they didn’t have a ton of fans. Still miserable over the news. I’ve been so lucky with the bands I’ve been following up until now, but this makes the fourth band in a year I really liked either breaking up or going on hiatus this year. I was really hoping to follow them more closely now, but can’t be helped, I guess. Hope they don’t vanish from the scene at least. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emmny 4139 Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) -pretends to be surprised- as usual people were under the impression that they were doing well but they were huge flops lol, their o-west thing was such a disaster they lowered the cost to get more people in, then did paired free tickets (if my memory serves me right) and still couldn't pack the venue. that being said, 3rd birthday weren't popular either--for some reason they were really loved in the west but their following was uh...niche. you don't need to be a businessman to know that all the money shimizuya invested in them was more or less going nowhere.

Komorebi 2193 Posted October 23, 2017 Can't say I'm surprised, it seemed theyr following was pretty much western. I could never really get into them for some reason, though L has a really nice voice. I hope he continues to sing somewhere else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frayed 404 Posted October 23, 2017 So how many bands does this label still even have? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
