LOL yeah, I couldn't bear another years-long wait... I searched back on Canou's twitter, these are the tweets I could find of the recording session from November: Spoiler guitar recording a tweet from Shintaro mentioning drum recording a tweet from aie (deadman, the god and death stars, gibkiy×3 etc.) doing guest vocals this December tweet from Shinpei (FOXPILL CULT) might be related too, more guest vocals for "Muni-san"? ...so hopefully it's all (or mostly) finished since then. :'))) 1 carddass reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carddass 273 Posted February 23, 2020 Nice finds. Looks like there was some serious recording going on. And I didn't even know he had a twitter! After he removed the link from his blog years ago, I just thought he gave up that sort of thing. Seems like he just moved over to twtitter. Why he doesn't post the link on the official page is confusing to me though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted March 14, 2020 This is awesome, MUNIMUNI just uploaded snippets of their twoman gig with industrial/noise act KAOGANAI from back in 2019, they cover Kuroyume, BUCK-TICK and SOFT BALLET together (too bad it's not footage of the whole songs, but still cool!). ♥ ♥ ♥ Their next twoman gig is tomorrow btw. 1 carddass reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carddass 273 Posted March 15, 2020 Nice, I wish they did more thngs like this. Just post whole songs or encores or something! It's almost the cheapest thing a band can do to build their following, throw a camera on a tripod, press record, edit a bit and upload the video onto youtube! And I didn't recognize that last song - Soft Ballet is one of those bands I know I'll like once I start trying to listen to them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carddass 273 Posted March 15, 2020 Thanks, I like it. I'm sure the Depeche Mode comparison is an easy one. Ken Morioka even has that Martin Gore vibe! And I like DM so I should enjoy SB. And I just watched this video and found out Takashi Fujita from Doom was the guest guitarist for Soft Ballet for a few years! 2 Jigsaw9 and saishuu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carddass 273 Posted April 9, 2020 A new video featuring a new song 'Barairo no kimi', Believe and He. The newsletter has the lyrics which are chock full of Zi:Kill, Cure and New Order song and album titles: 「薔薇色の君」by M.C. Dance on dance. 今宵夢見る。 手を取りSLOW DANCE ドキドキしちゃってさ・・・。 My red shoes 赤い靴の秘密。 七回紐を結ぶと、 眞夜中、ざわめく。 Step to rain 孤高の雨が降る。 砂の音をCLOSE DANCE 無口なる囁き。 パーフェクトキッス・・・ お別れにはまだ・・・ 天国へSLOW DOWN 足跡、影踏み。 Blood flowers 夢幻のincense Will you そうさ幻影と踊る 似ているあなたの痛み。 行けよ、未だ逢えないのなら・・・。 似ている僕らの傷み。 行けよ、薔薇色の夜にさ！ うふふふ・・・ぐへへへ・・・。 1 Jigsaw9 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jigsaw9 6783 Posted April 27, 2020 The live was pretty cool! Gotta love the choice of intro SE too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carddass 273 Posted April 29, 2020 It was pretty good. I always liked the idea of a one-camera live bootleg - it makes me feel like I'm there in the crowd. And any setlist where they play 'He' is a win for me. It's possibly my favorite track by them. 1 Jigsaw9 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted May 17, 2020 Apparently the band's hiatus was pretty short, as it looks like they'll be returning to live activities starting from the beginning of June: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CHOP already has a "real" live booked at 05/31 too. Well, they also mention that depending on the situation it might change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carddass 273 Posted May 24, 2020 Nice! Sounds promising. Also, Ikebukuro Chop, the live house which I believe Matenrou works at, is posting alot of videos, some old and some live streamed. It's good to keep an eye out as there are some of his other session projects posted or streamed there occasionally:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaurCKh9jYtnpyxjMVMm20A/videos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The website isn't available in English so it's a bit hard to tell, haha. What I could glean from it is that donations can be made via credit card on this platform, but not sure if foreigners are allowed to register or use it.

carddass 273 Posted May 28, 2020 Exactly. In this era, I treat nearly all small bands like a kickstarter / gofundme who need every little bit to get that next release out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
