saishuu 3220 Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) For those interested, and by that I mean the only fan they have left (me), bassist 華凛 (Karin) is leaving NoGoD after their live on April 6th at 新宿ReNY. From what I recall, he's been with the band since the beginning, making it 13 years in 2018. From what I could gather from Google Translator lmao, he's having some physical issues and wants to do other things individually. Source and now I'm sad.

Zeus 7997 Posted January 11, 2018 I honestly can't imagine the band without him, although I think they'll manage. They've found a groove which works for them and they can find a suitable replacement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wish them luck finding a new bassist; Karin is a beast and will definitely be missed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chemicalpictures 1888 Posted January 11, 2018 damn, this fucking sucks, man... I've always thought of NoGoD as one of those bands who'd just disband when they felt their time has come, I can't picture one of the members simply leaving like this... Can't imagine them without Karin 1 saishuu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LIDL 692 Posted January 11, 2018 I kinda feel this is it for them tbh. He might not seem as important as a vocalist but you know, some Japanese bands are really into this "bros who ride together die together" stuffs. That they won't use the band name when one of them departing and regrouped with different name instead or disband altogether. I will see how this thing progress. This is a sad day tbh. 1 nullmoon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShanethVarosa 1209 Posted January 11, 2018 This sucks, generally. I hope they do continue on without him, but totally understand if they decide to not do it without him. I just hope Danchou doesn’t quit music next. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wakarimashita 317 Posted January 11, 2018 I kinda saw that coming since the very moment he dropped the lolita thing... Pretty sad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saishu 1589 Posted January 11, 2018 To be honest I thought they replaced him a while ago, but then I realized he just stopped wearing dresses. 1 1 nullmoon and Zalemu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sixblacknine 90 Posted January 11, 2018 This is a shame, I don't keep up with many bands anymore but I've always liked NoGoD I really hope they don't decide to call it quits after this, but since he's been there since the start it wouldn't surprise me :c Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have a major label deal and a relatively steady career. I don't see them disbanding just to regroup with another name and start from scratch. Although it's not the same, it's not like this is the first member they lose anyway. Edited January 11, 2018 by saishuu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alsdead14 191 Posted April 7, 2018 Nice guests! I hope his last live was fun. And btw, you're not the only fan left on here I still enjoy NoGod a lot. I just didn't listen a lot to Vampire and the other releases after. But I bought their indies best selection double cds back in the days, and I still enjoy those cds 1 saishuu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
