secret_no_03 959 Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) Starting as a session band with Satoshi, Közi, Atsushi and Fuchi where they played staples from Joy Division, Bauhaus and Killing Joke. Satoshi then left before ryo who was in 9 goats blackout came on as vocalist and they added Rieu, YUGAMI and Masaaki and started making original music. The versatility of ryo as a vocalist, looking at how he's in three different groups at once and they each sound different speaks volumes and no two DÄLLE songs are the same. I think it's a testament to the diversity of the band with ATSUSHI coming from a punk background, ryo Nagoya-kei, Közi being a VK OG and Rieu the more obscure avant-garde noise genre. DÄLLE have released pretty consistently and just seem to be getting better which is a testament to the work ethic of ryo considering KEEL and HOLLOWGRAM have releases this year as well. ATSUSHI who at one point changed his name to just XXX in the credits seemingly does everything from managing the group to running the store, designing merchandise, the photobooks they give out at shows and the CD and DVD cases and booklets etc. I know they're not everyone's cup of tea and are the definition of underground, but they deserve their own thread and admiration in my humble opinion. Their releases and merch may be quite the hassle to get a hold of, but when you do it's worth it. Their blending of everything from a more visual kei sound to post-hardcore and even elements of rap and dark wave is unlike anything i have seen in the visual scene. Anyway, this is my for lack of a better term, love note to a great band who are and probably will always be underground and not well known, but that's part of the fun and the mystique.

Jigsaw9 6783 Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) If they committed a bit more to the witch house-y dark electronic stuff (instead of just the aesthetics and some song parts) I'd be all over them, but to me they've always been kinda like a group where they just throw a bunch of clashing stuff together and call it a song. They do have their moments tho! Edited August 2, 2018 by Jigsaw9 1 secret_no_03 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paranoia 23 Posted August 2, 2018 they have a quite unique style to make music, that's what has mainly caught my attention since ryo joined, adding that I'm a fan of both ryo and közi 1 secret_no_03 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

secret_no_03 959 Posted July 1, 2019 Oh, engrish. They'll more than likely film this one if they don't want fans to be seen, either that or they're just trying to be cool, could be either or literally both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

secret_no_03 959 Posted July 4, 2019 @Mr.0I don't know if you're interested in merch, but the My Heart is Evil hoodie has had a massive drop in price from 8,000 to 5,000 yen. I know France is having a heat wave, but it'd be nice for the fall/winter. https://mayhem.buyshop.jp/items/21653778 1 Mr.0 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

secret_no_03 959 Posted July 21, 2019 (edited) Atsushi tweeted about voting and encourages everyone to vote. Things are looking pretty interesting in Japan as if the LDP get enough seats Abe can get that constitutional amendment he's been wanting since getting elected. https://thediplomat.com/2019/07/japan-prepares-for-upper-house-elections/ Edited July 21, 2019 by secret_no_03 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
