The Piass 3472 Posted July 24, 2019 1 hour ago, Zeus said: Any reason why? Well, Chizuru said that the band did not think that they would be able to live up to the band's growing reputation. He was also having trouble with the musical direction he wanted to take. The other members also had their own thoughts and that's how they first talked about disbanding in the winter of 2017. But he reached the conclusion that the band could still keep going. However, at the end of 2018, the band and the label talked again about it and came to the conclusion that it would be the best solution as each member's own musical direction and desires had changed since they formed. 4 Gesu, Zeus, suji and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

'Musical direction'? From Pentagon? Hm... This guys were everything but actually musicians to me... They were a boy-band project after all, so I'm sure their disbanding may have to do with other stuff, like contract matters and such, rather than 'artistic' arguments between members...

secret_no_03 959 Posted July 24, 2019 So, either a 8P-SB esque project by Minpha or a dark, evil, gritty project that shocks everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peffy 3568 Posted July 24, 2019 That's really unfortunate to hear. Another one of my favourites bites the dust. I know people did not like their "lack of direction", but I really appreciate a band that can pull off a mixture of genres. I usually get bored of bands that tend to do the same thing over and over. I don't personally have a problem if they want to make a pop single, and then a rock single, and then an album with a mix of both. I know people will disagree with me, but I thought Chizuru is talented enough for multiple styles (or at least, the post-production on his voice is good enough, lol). My preference is not the super-poppy cute style, but I really like his singing in rock-style songs, and his rapping. I hope Chizuru at least continues with doing vocals in a VK band. 5 1 Yukimoto, meikyoushisui, Komorebi and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yukimoto 1237 Posted July 24, 2019 @peffy I totally agree with you as well I mean if a bands singles all sound similar people don't enjoy it and if they like to try new things people don't enjoy it. Just do what your band wants to do and make yourselves happy. It is your project anyway. I loved everything they did BTW 1 1 peffy and Doesn'tEvenGoHere reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chemicalpictures 1888 Posted July 24, 2019 I for once believe in the differences in music direction thing. I always thought their "directionless" approach was actually intentional, and I respect them for that, even if the disco ended up being 50-50 for me. There is A LOT of talent in those boys, that's for sure. I hope to see them all back in action in the future, specially the drummer, he is great 1 platy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ada Suilen 652 Posted July 24, 2019 Sad for this... despite their up-and-down moments, they are a pretty good band... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devilish_Eye 1168 Posted July 24, 2019 Sad but expected. I was a bit of a Pentagon fan in the past but their last releases were meh. The softer songs sounded the same. The harder songs had some variety. Hope the guys will return in projects that suits their wishes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
