TheZigzagoon 670 Posted January 1, 2018 I actually predict Rey (ex-Avanchick) will be part of a new band, atm he's part of a band doing mediocre Gazette covers, but who knows. NOAH (ex Avanchick, NOAH PROJECT) will do okay with his new solo work but past drama will hold him back. Gazette album will be a mediocre Dogma 2.0 with extra toxic era bleep bloops (I'm counting on it) Arlequin will continue slaying as per usual, it'd be wishful thinking if I said they'd go major, but I'd love to see that. MIZTAVLA recruit a new drummer, I wonder if Greiva's drummer will fill in after Fumiya's passing (R.I.P) as he supported them the other night I believe. TAKE NO BREAK disband after incredibly poor reception, YOMI actually takes a break, or revives Igaguri Chiba to make another Golden Bomber parody single Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akrus 920 Posted January 1, 2018 Crucifixion joins Starwave Records. Liki (Synk;yet) back in a new band w/ Rin (ex. Misaruka), Sawah (ex. Misaruka) (maybe azami) Hiro (Visage, Varyl) back in continual sessions. D new limited single w/ poor concept. BIDOH (ex. ELYSION) new band + joins on Resonance under SUI hands. Kisaki several "revival events" Yuuki (ex. DOAK) new band (october/november 2018) +1st release on December. MerryBadend disband. Misaruka "one-day revival" 2 suji and Miku70 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok let's do something a bit more interesting LSN will release a full 12 new tracks album. Jakigan Meister will release 1 single, then one album, 9 new substantial no intro/SE tracks. DAV will release 2 singles. They won't blow anyone away. Metronome will release a new single. Neither Penicillin or Stereo CK will release anything this year. Take no Break will not disband and will release 1 more single before the end of 2018. BAROQUE will release an album in the second half of the year. Ex.Megamasso Ryohei will have a new band. Ex. boogieman gu. Akira will confirm he has completely left the scene by remaining silent. Kiryu will go on hiatus. Morrie wil have a new album. Jupiter won't get a new vo., it will just fade away.

madygrain 515 Posted January 1, 2018 (edited) They have been doing well for a long long time. That's why precisely they will want to branch off and get some rest. It's a gut feeling more than a well reasoned prediction. Edited January 2, 2018 by madygrain 1 Reikatsumi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Someone in Kiryu will be injured, possibly in a music-related way (carpal tunnel, voice cords getting wrecked etc.) forcing them to have a hiatus We will continue to hear absolute fuck nothing from HIKARU (Kameleo), Rame (Black Gene), Shun (Vidoll) and CO- (FUTURISM BOYZ) KISAKI will try to be relevant again in some scammy ass way 1 1 zaa_zaa and Reikatsumi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boots 5 Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) PS Company will finally give up any pretense of being anything other than GazettE’s management. They will change their name to BlackMoral Enterprises and their remaining non-Gaze acts (Rave and Kra at this point, I think) will quietly be shuttled off elsewhere within Free Will. Mejibray’s disbandment will become official. Tzu and Koichi will be silent all year. Meto will join an all-star band one-off project. MiA will do a lot of fashion shoots and appear as a session guitarist with a couple of acts. Codomo Dragon will leave BP Records as a direct result of Kanagate. BP goes into panic mode since Kiryu’s future rests on the state of Mahiro’s vision issues and Royz nearly disbanded at least once. They will sign a neo-oshare act and force them to release even more material than their established bands. Sakito will do another nude/semi-nude layout to promote his latest Jakigan Meister release and look hotter than most J-rockers a decade-plus younger than him. A band with a substantial international following (possibly DIAURA) will sign with a major label and unleash a torrent of discourse about whether they’re going to be “ruined.” Edited January 9, 2018 by Boots 1 1 urumomo and Doesn'tEvenGoHere reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I read every tweet and he didn't mention anything like thaat I don’t recall a specific tweet, but the band did release a statement when they raised their cheki prices saying it was because Mahiro has a retina degeneration disease and his eyes are super-sensitive to light, therefore he could take fewer pictures. 1 Reikatsumi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glad they proved me wrong. - If XAA-XAA doesn't disband before September: XAA-XAA/DADAROMA twoman tour #3. ❌ They did a twoman tour with Neverland instead because DADAROMA went on hiatus. - Whenever XAA-XAA disbands: Kazuki and Reiya will form a new band. ❌ xax is still going strong - DEZERT will continue to suck MUCC dick and release crap. ✅ Nailed it. - Kizu will have a oneman either at Akasaka Blitz or Tsutaya O-EAST. ❌ They did Zepp which is even bigger. - JILUKA will have their 6th official oneman become their 11th or 12th actual oneman. ✅ - DADAROMA will continue to pump out releases of varying quality in short intervals. ✅ - There will be some sort of drama related to 0.1g no Gosan. ✅ No surprise there. - Mejibray will be done for good as of the 22nd. Maybe not next year but in 2019 Tsuzuku and Koichi will form a new band. ✅ They made a new band earlier than I estimated though. - Some ex-bandman will open a cat cafe. ???

Doesn'tEvenGoHere 121 Posted November 2, 2018 These Nightmare-related predictions were really on point or close though, lol. LSN will release a full 12 new tracks album --> We actually get a 6 song mini album Jakigan Meister will release 1 single, then one album --> On point. We get one mini album and one more single before the year ends. Take no Break will not disband and will release 1 more single before the end of 2018 --> On point. Sakito will do another nude/semi-nude layout to promote his latest Jakigan Meister release and look hotter than most J-rockers a decade-plus younger than him --> Not nude, but definitely suggestive. I think that's his norm now. He still looks great. As far as Take No Break/Yomi goes, Oremind was actually good, imo. And so was the ROUGE song he did for that video game. I thought they might get better now, but Dirty_white was unimpressive again. He really should take that break though, his vocals still sound awful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
