sleepy coffee 1476 Posted December 31, 2019 (edited) New logo (?) And full band photo Individual members photos New MV spot Edit: they might've changed their band name just to RAKUGAKI also on the MV spot it says AINS on the top right lol Edited December 31, 2019 by sleepy coffee 1 zetork reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleepy coffee 1476 Posted December 31, 2019 Yep looks like moving forward in 2020 theyll be officially going as RAKUGAKI and under the actual AINS label Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted December 31, 2019 (edited) Looks like AINS is returning with full force (that other new band Jiga seems promising for now too)! Looking forward to the full-length, eventhough I still haven't listened to their mini, lol. Edited December 31, 2019 by Jigsaw9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elazmus 1873 Posted December 31, 2019 I thought they were very interesting before but this also looks good I guess. I do love AINS bands so it's kind of cool to see a talented band just become "AINS af" like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted December 31, 2019 The band's official site seems to be down so I assume they're already preparing the "AINSified" one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I swear they were playing them every single time I went. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jigsaw9 6783 Posted January 5, 2020 Just like their labelmates Jiga, the RAKUGAKI members also visited some CD shops where they left some flyers and free-to-take promo CDs containing a medley of some of their tracks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

filth_y 189 Posted January 10, 2020 Really unfortunate day to do the video shooting it seems... Saw them live a few times at events and I cannot recall that his voice was this bad live, rather I was suprised how good they were live, really fun show..

VkBrutaliaN 1890 Posted January 10, 2020 ...I thought his vocals sounded pretty great in this video! No idea how the vocalist "usually" sounds live but i love the very rough tone he has here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
