Tokage 5930 Posted June 23, 2019 This thread is dedicated to band beefs. Discuss anything, from the more well-known stories about messy disbandments or extreme rivalries to the more obscure ones. Both 'band x vs band y' and 'band x imploding on itself' are acceptable. Not just limited to VK, any and all examples from the Japanese music industry are welcome to be discussed. I'll start off with one of the more well-known cases of a VK musician fucking over his own bandmates, which is how the drummer Dai from Himitsu Kessha Codomo A screwed over his band by pulling all sorts of shady shit (including theft and leaking members' personal info if I'm remembering correctly). 1 3 avaritonista, suji, jaymee and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

saishuu 3220 Posted June 23, 2019 there used to be a rumor that both sugizo and j hated each other's guts and that's one of the reasons luna sea broke up. not sure if there was truth to it, but they seem to be doing well since the band came back (from the looks of it at least). also can't comment in a thread like this without talking about the time toshi quit x-japan because of his cult. there also seems to be beef between gackt and the rest of malice mizer as they had plans to make a special concert at tokyo dome last year and he refused, leaving mana frustrated. 1 suji reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Himeaimichu 1535 Posted June 23, 2019 I remember reading something about how in the 90's, Dir en Grey and La'Mule had some sort of rivalry/beef. Also Yuuga vs. pretty much the entire Oshare Kei scene (minus Jewelry and Sugar Trip, because it's ok if your mentor and friends are Oshare Kei, I guess lmao).

Not only between J and Sugizo during 2000 summer all the members hated each others, in autumn the situation became critical between them, they not speak to each others after the concerts, each depart from their sides etc... J hated Inoran for few times coz during this time Inoran said ""I'm going back to Tokyo because I'm not well" while in reality he leaving for record his album. Until theirs comeback in 2007 they not speak to each others except Inoran and Ryuichi. 2 saishuu and Miku70 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
violetchain 912 Posted June 23, 2019 (edited) Not a band, but the reason I always loved KAT-TUN more than any other Johnny's group is you could always see how much they openly disliked each other. Always found that honesty refreshing. Plus I never really liked Jin, so the vaguely passive aggressive comments like this Kame dropped after he left always made me laugh.

anadentone 478 Posted June 23, 2019 Pitty from Rides in Revilion is hated by the rest of the band, me thinks . Kinsaki and everyone "bandmate/backup band" Maria Cross is probably hating Masato from Kaitou lol. I read somewhere some of the guys in DEG don't get along but I don't think it's considered "hate" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ohh I didn't know Gackt had been invited to the Malice mizer reunion concert and that he refused! ^^ now that's interesting gossip, do you have more info on that?

Nighttime Jae 238 Posted June 23, 2019 There's definitely been some unreported drama between EVE and UNiTE (because of the Sana situation) and Takeru has unfollowed Yui on Twitter (while Yui still follows him). He still follows Lin and Sana tho, so perhaps he only has beef with Yui🤷♀️ 1 1 Miku70 and suji reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saishu 1589 Posted June 24, 2019 Supposedly Rentrer en Soi disbanded because two of the members would get into actual fist fights. The guitarist from Nega is some kind of scumbag, right? and there was a rumor that Sakito and Hitsugi from Nightmare hate each other? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From my knowledge, and from info that was taken on the board, Satsuki and the bassist of RES definitely hated one another. The guitarist of Nega/Lack-co is a KNOWN philanderer. Sakito/Hitsugi don't get along either, yeah. It's because of the egos in the way. Hitsugi wanted more solos, where as Sakito loves to rip off Sugizo when ever he can. Someone needs to dish on DEG's The Manipulated Life Tour --- apparently Shinya/Toshiya had SERIOUS issues with one another during this period, which led to the band almost disbanding. 1 1 2 suji, secret_no_03, Miku70 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm interested to know more about those Shinya and Toshiya issues?! I thought the DEG members don't associate much with each other, precisely to avoid this kind of problem, so I wonder what happened ^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Komorebi 2193 Posted June 24, 2019 There's lots of rumors of Hyde and Tetsu hating each other's guts + Ken some joke at a TV show with a Kpop group (T-ara or Kara, idk which) about how they got along at the beginning and now they can't stand each other (sometime around 2011/2012). It is been sort of confirmed the bandmembers have no contact with each other and management even has to set separate recording schedules so they won't cross each other's paths. Also, apparently Kaz and Hyde had some sort of beef that lead to Vamps suddenly going on hiatus with the latter resuming a solo career, without Kaz this time.

Saishu 1589 Posted June 24, 2019 That’s not good when your rhythm section doesn’t get along. I wonder if Toshiya was telling Shinya to get his shit together/step up his game, lol 1 2 wildjokerleia, Reiko and emmny reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

secret_no_03 959 Posted June 25, 2019 I wonder what the story was behind the deadman hiatus and if there was beef between anyone involved. Obviously Takamasa thought he'd have more success as a politician, but yeah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
