Kisaki fails to release new Phantasmagoria Best-Of

[Peace Heavy mk II 7200]

 

 

Kisaki just tweeted that a new Mago collection album will be released on August 31st, released through Lorelei Entertainment. It is a remastering album, so all of the songs, in theory, should sound cleaner than previous releases.

 

I believe 8/31 is the 10 year anniversary from when they broke up the 1st time, so that’s probably why the album art is a skull.

 

*UPDATE*: the album's canceled due to production issues.

So most of the songs on this album will be released for the tenth time, great.

This sounds like a bad april fools prank someone here would make

Again? Just let this band rest in peace

No, but this time it’s different!

 

Its ＲＥＭＡＳＴＥＲＥＤ  (◡‿◡✿) 

 

 

Also, I specifically worded it as “Kisaki is releasing...” because I highly doubt any of the other 5 people who were in this group at some point even know it’s happening (except maybe Riku). As we learned from Kyouhei, miss thing doesn’t need to ask nor inform any artists involved when she makes a new ¢oll£ction or omnibu$

I'm not sure I like this idea, remastering doesn't necessarily make songs 'better'. Even when Mago completely re-recorded Kami Uta it wasn't a 100% improvement.

[Mihenno 4195]

I'm into it

is it his own new company, or he simply sold the entire UCP warehouse stock to someone in the biz and filled a bankruptcy for the actual label?

[madygrain 515]

why should we believe that they are going to sound better if this is just a blatant cashgrab tho

[mikarudio 352]

Kisaki need noney

[LIDL 692]

Congrats to their fans, there's another new old thing to collect from again

[Saishu 1589]

I remember the re-recordings being pretty bad. Fairy Times Memory sounded flat and lifeless. 

 

This time I’m guessing they’ll just raise the levels and make everything LOUDER. 

[platy 3018]

The fucking disrespect.

Seeing as these days his career has gone to performing at the BANANA HALL with The Flying Pants, this release makes more sense

[Tokage 5930]

my condolences to the 1 phantasmagoria stan who will still buy this

[evenor 1655]

Stunt Queen!

 

Kisaki is simply a #vkhistorian wanting to teach/save the new vk children from forgetting a LEGEND.

I had to double-check what today's date was when I saw this thread (to make sure we hadn't suddenly jumped to April 1st).

This is literally what I thought, lol.

KISAKI is all about Best Of.

[Tanishi 598]

If only he'd release compilations of matina bands with scattered/hard to get material...

[Tokage 5930]

for real though, at this rate there will come a time when these guys legit will have more ''best of'' compilations than actual original songs

All three of these are great. The 2007 one has a really solid selection, and the 'demo tape' one has a huge amount of rare stuff in great quality.  The 20th anniversary one has a good mix of good tracks and rare tracks--and it's the only one you can reliably buy anymore.

 

I also highly recommend this DVD if you're looking for live footage: https://vk.gy/releases/omnibus/6764/lorelei-bootleg-dvd-series-vol-2-matina-presents-1999-1999-5-23-shibuya-on-air-east-2nd-press/ There's another with great Madeth gray'll footage as well: https://vk.gy/releases/omnibus/6765/lorelei-bootleg-dvd-series-vol-3-osaka-rock-summit-1999-12-29-osaka-big-cat/

Oh yeah I forgot about that demo tape one. Too bad I can't find it anywhere it looks really cool
