If you're desperate enough to raise the stakes enough and say "you'll disband unless ..." it means you've clearly given up as a band anyway. So this was expected. -

lol according to japanese wikipedia, he used to be a johnny's kid and "retired" from the entertainment industry in 2010. Now a little community knows he got himself pierced and tattooed and ran off to follow his dreams of playing in a vk session band -

Even if they did hit their sales goals, they probably realized "hey this is just a gimmick and we can't sustain this attendance regularly," so they booked their last 3 one-mans and are gunna call it quits. -

Lol this band will be the death of me. Look at this fine specimen of 2d trash, either MERRY are making it very clear that you need to buy that DVD, no freebies, or I'm deadly mistaken. The zombie is the best. And it's unlisted already, like the last pamphlet trailer. If you're gonna do this just stick to it lol. Or did you know we'll share anyway? Edit: It's public now ^^ -

2 pointsHi, I'm Kae. I hate introductions, because I never know what to say. Do you say too much? Too little? What's a healthy middle? Ugh! See! It's much too stressful. Anywho, I'm a fan of many genres. If it sounds good and I like it, I will listen to it. That simple. I hope to get to know lots of other music fans here and join in on the community. So, this is my first post of hopefully many and my official hello.

Hey all
crossparallel and one other reacted to len for a post in a topic
Hey So I entered the forum some years ago with the main intention of helping with my social phobia, I guess no one knows me because I left it but now I'm back hopefully to stay. May I ask you to please be nice to me? I feel sick to my stomach when I receive a response online.......... I felt the need to start another introduction topic because I think I changed a lot during this time, this is kind of a new start to me, I can delete my old post (or can I?) if it's wrong to start another one. I'm also kind of dumb and awkward, so don't mind some weird things I may say or do, sorry in advance... I like mostly heavy stuff, be it rock, metal, electronic/industrial, punk, things that end in core, I love the screaming and the noises, but most things are disappointing me, specially in JRock, I was thinking of migrating to other genre like grindcore until I found Deviloof, so I'm giving it another chance... I also like discovering new genres like thall, japanoise or whatever and watching different and unusual things (Die Antwoord is a guilty pleasure of mine...), so if you find anything interesting and feel like sharing with someone, here I am~ My favorite bands are Dir en grey, Plastic Tree, Kagrra,, Mucc, Nocturnal Bloodlust (which reminds me that probably Deviloof will enter this list), The Piass, Sukekiyo, Kiryu, Ikd-Sj and recently I discovered Xaa-Xaa, Archemi and Kuroyuri To Kage, that I'm liking a lot too. I love traditional japanese things, so if you know more bands that use japanese instruments I'll appreciate if you show it to me. I'll also appreciate if you can recommend me more heavy bands like NB and Deviloof... I hope it wasn't a waste of your time to read what I wrote, thanks for reading it. -
2 pointsTheir tech was fun. You could tell he fell in love with coldrain while working for them too lol. The Revelation is one of my least favorite coldrain albums, tbh. When they added the Until The End songs for the deluxe addition I liked it more, but the original version of the album I tend to skip most of it. However, VENA is in a 3-way tie with Through Clarity and The Enemy Inside for my faves. I go back to those all the time.

They need to find a new niche to rip off. I bet after they disband they'll come back wearing over-sized knit shirts and play mediocre shoegaze. I don't think there's any moderately popular Plastic Tree rip-offs yet. Or they'll just do like that other new band and simply steal the name of an old band (Lamiel -> ラミエル, was it?) and play lackluster neo-vk. God knows we don't have enough bands who play generic-core with badly implemented synthesizers. -

Currently Airing & Watching Anime Discussion Topic
Flame-X and one other reacted to Hakoniwa for a post in a topic
So I started watching a new anime this season called Kuzu no Honkai. That title interested me because its (official) translation is basically "Scum's Wish" and that's not something you see everyday lol. The trailer doesn't do it any justice; it makes it seem like any other romance anime so I wasn't sure whether to watch it or not... but hey, it's a noitaminA show so it's worth a try at least. In the end, it was different than I thought it would be! The main characters don't seem to be the nicest people and there's an interesting premise: they both are in love with someone who doesn't love them back, so they're going out with each other to be those people's replacement for each other. It's a bit messed up and surprisingly NSFW (especially for a noitaminA show), but strangely endearing. It has some light-hearted humor but not too much, most of the episode was narrated by the protagonist and that's nice. Some of the lines remind me of manga, and it's probably on purpose since there are also some manga-like panels thrown in. It was a good first episode overall, I'll definitely keep watching it. Apparently the manga is still being published, but the whole anime is set to have 11 episodes. I also finally watched Litle Witch Academia's movies! I really like them, so I'm gonna start the TV series soon too. -

2 points15 episodes into Gundam IBO and good lord this is so great so far. I don't want to speak too soon, but this is shaping up to potentially be one of the best Gundam series that I've seen. It REALLY feels like a U.C. Gundam series too, which is amazing for an alt. universe Gundam series imo.

Purple Stone new maxi single "ポイズンチョコレート(poison chocolate)" release
echo and one other reacted to returnal for a post in a topic
to be fair, it -is- called "poison chocolate" so from the jump it doesn't seem that serious of a song, haha. for real though i love their goofball mode but going back to something more mature a la butterfly/aoi yami (or blending it with panic's sorta steez) for the bsides/next releases would be great—hearing aoi yami was what hooked me on them in the first place. and i swear to god they better make their next record -at least- a mini... love everything they do but all these singles is a bit much looool -

aetarna and one other reacted to doombox for a post in a topic
Seeing this kinda made me realize how much I don't appreciate the sixth and seventh waves as much as everything that came before. I just think that's when things started getting really homogenized and it's not that I don't still enjoy a good number of bands, but I don't find them as irreplaceable. Maybe I got used to so many bands breaking up and I'm jaded or there just isn't as much variation in musical styles as there used to be. Probably both. Things change, so I'm not really bitter, and a lot of the older bands are still releasing music so I can't complain. It's just seeing it all laid out like this made it pretty clear where I'm at these days. -
2 pointsVery easy : First wave. Although I'm much into the early bands (BUCK-TICK, BY:SEXUAL, AUTO-MOD etc.), the first wave is the one that's got the bulk of bands I like (Kuroyume, Malice Mizer, Plastic Tree etc). Also, little note, I've seen all these bands play live since I was in Tokyo during the first wave. PS: Kuro Yume Live at La-Miss Ration 1994. Shot by me.
