anadentone 478 Posted April 28, 2019 it's the vk rule- someone needs to do a solo or side project so anyone remembers any failed solo albums or sucky "i'm working some some other guys" projects? Rui (Screw)- his solo sucked and I guess his jewelry is good? Yoshiki- too many to name Kyo (dir en grey) -five finger death punch thing was weird so anyone else knows of any? 2 Gesu and suji reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gesu 1537 Posted April 28, 2019 Did Twelve Apostles actually do anything? They're the project Chobi and Satoshi (ex-DIV) started after DIV's disbandment, but I don't think they released anything at all (I mean, Chobi's in The Guzmania now and everyone seems pretty excited for that, so he's got bigger things on his plate, anyways). If they did, they went all Umiyuri with it and made it practically impossible to find anything outside of Japan. Speaking of, how is Hitomi (ex-Moran)'s solo project doing?

nick 10212 Posted April 28, 2019 Mr.8 aka Shuu (ex-Girugamesh)'s solo project is somewhat forgettable. Everyone could tell who's behind Girugamesh's crappy synth/techno sound. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Himeaimichu 1535 Posted April 28, 2019 Yura from Puela had a short lived solo project. She retired after a few releases though. 1 Zalemu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peace Heavy mk II 7200 Posted April 28, 2019 Scarlet Valse's old drummer had a solo project that released 1 song. Mikaru from Dio had a weird art project where he sold bad paintings and wore an ugly hat Erina (also from Dio) released one (1) song through Sui's record label Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

suji 8317 Posted April 28, 2019 The Unforgiven feat. the guy from MARRY AN BLOOD (I think???)...then again Chateau Agency always tends to shit the bed on artists that aren't Versailles or Kamijo, and I'm glad Kaya and Sui at least got the hell outta there before their careers could get buried Also there's Raizo's project Lafflesia (before Scarlet Valse) but I think that was mainly a session thing and wasn't a serious band. I would also probably say Jaki (La'veil Mizeria) or maybe Pietoro (ex-Da'vid shito:aL) since nobody's talking about it or sharing shit. Also Mashiro (ex-Paradeis) for obvious reasons lmaoooo RIP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I can remember them being something like a VK dream-team, being actually good musicians, having several releases and stuff. I came to really like some of them, too. Rame could look as a creep, but he is a really skilled bassist! Edited April 28, 2019 by saiko Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Minus the ugly hat. I remember Show (ex. Vaastu) announcing his new project but all I know is that they released one PV and disappeared. 2 suji and Gesu reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know, last week after realizing that I had posted here I returned to them and could confirm that, excluding 'Sakura Trance Destiny', every other track is painful to listen to.
