Fastest growing vk band of all time?
saishuu and 6 others reacted to WhirlingBlack for a post in a topic
Dir is still managed through free will, it was hardly a dramatic separation that needed to be negotiated under the table. I'm just saying that Yoshikis involvement was of marginal importance given their already quickly rising fame at that point. The curve was already pointing in the right direction and he just jumped on the chance to put his brand on another band that was a surefire success. Also, I'm glad you have friends. Keep it up. -

甘い暴力 (Amai Bouryoku / Sweet Violence)
CloudyTree and 3 others reacted to Duwang for a post in a topic
Do you mean me lmfao. They've been doing quite well recently, not just in Kansai but Kanto as well, especially in the past 2 or 3 months. In April they started going down into the crowd and stamping people with hanko during kimi, izon, tattoo and it's become a huge hit even among bangya who aren't fans of the band. There's always a big rush of people who run in just for it. Btw, the second song they're playing in the video @Mihiposted is ちゅーしたい which will be on the new release coming out next month. If there's enough interest I may consider doing a shopping service for it as well as the 500 yen 入門盤 CD and cheki. Also I completely forgot I posted here a few months ago saying I'd share live reports and dumb stories so I'll do that within the next couple of days. -

2 pointsClear played at Takadanobaba AREA for the first time in a year the other night (7/17)! But it was also their last time playing there T_T They all really love this livehouse (it seems like a lot of bands do actually) <3 Their set list: 1.星流る夜に (Hoshi nagaru yoru ni) 2.DizzlingDance 3.モノクロの未来 (monochrome no mirai) 4.Surround It was a completely different setlist from 7/11. I love how they can have a completely different set list, but I'm never disappointed. Like most bands have that one song that they will play without fail at every single live, but Clear doesn't really do that. I mean like if it's their shusai I think they tend to play Yume Utsutsu for their encore, but it's not like a MUST at EVERY live. Like if they DON'T play a song, maybe I'll be like "oh I wanna hear that next time" but it's not like I'm upset about it. I mean, like last time I saw Tra they didn't play Kamikaze and I felt SUPER weird about it haha. But yeah, CLear also usually does a pretty good job of matching the other bands their playing with so that the other gya will maybe give a shit about them haha idk they're just really smart with their set lists <3 Anyway, I really liked their set list last night! I mean, I love their set list every time really haha When I first got into CLear, Surround, Dizzling Dance and Hoshi Nagaru Yoru Ni were like my top three songs for sure so it was just really nice for me <3333 Also, I think I just like jumping in circles, which you def do a lot of in Dizzling Dance lolol <333 Jumping in circles and throwing hearts. It's the fucking best. hahaha <333333 Maybe that's why they don't really play Dizzling Dance the same time they play Mousou Closet... too much spinning in one set list?? lolol I'm glad more ppl joined in for Dizzling Dance! I always feel kind of dumb if I'm the only one doing the furi for it in the second row haha it's really fun though!! lolol Before they went into Surround, Miu (the support bassist) had some technical difficulties (all the bassists were having problems that night for some reason), but Tsukimi didn't notice and played the track to go into Surround cos he didn't notice, so they had to stop it suddenly lol they recovered pretty well like Tsukimi just started playing a good beat and Wataru and Kai joined in and it was like a nice jam session, but then they stopped suddenly. They should've just kept going lolol then Ryota started talking and Tsukimi told us a story of him spilling his salad all over the floor before he was even able to take one bite... but no one really laughed and Ryota was like... yeah that's not very interested (I found it interesting though cos I've def done that before??? lolol) Anyway, but then they fixed w/e problems Miu was having and all was well. I really REALLY like Surround <33333 That was the first song that from CLear that I was SUPER obsessed with haha Anyway, here's some picspam from after the live <3 (they all changed their looks a bit! Ryota pinned his bangs back! <3) Their next live is 8/8 @ Shinjuku Club Science! http://eplus.jp/sys/T1U14P0010843P006001P002231230P0030001 (they aren't listed on the eplus site cos they were added last minute I think, but they will def be performing!) The only other live they have in August is on the 31st, but they haven't announced any details yet.

The Bread Wolf's toast in process
ShTon reacted to The Bread Wolf for a post in a topic
Uwoooooo what is this a person what is it doing here thank you for coming tho. orz Angry Solas is angry. Maybe someone served him tea. Annnnnywaays. Here's more awful artstuffs. Hope yall like. Here's a piece I call "No clothes is no excuse for a bad hair day": But as usual, I ended up hating this one. Started to notice mistakes immediately after I had finished drawing it and it looks nothing like I wanted it to. So, two days later (last night) I redrew the picture from scratch: Note that the time between these two pictures is about 2 nights. So which one do you think is better? I vote for the second one. Kinda feels like whenever I draw something, the first attempt is without an exception absolute pile of shit. And then, when I get more comfortable with the concept of my drawing, it suddenly gets better. I feel like I managed to capture better anatomy with the second one, and also a better angle, although the latter'd still need some work, but fudgesticks, I'm not good at angles. Pwease give advise my mighty masters. -

I met a colleague at my volunteering work for the first time and he was such a fucking creep, asking me to go to the storage room with him, whispering to me the question 'was my relationship with my partner serious' and saying he could give me a ride all the way back to my mom's home if I needed a car. He kept starring at me while he thought I wasnt noticing. The dude is sixty years old and married. Ugh. I just hope I don't have to see this cunt again. Why do old people think they can get away with being slimy as fuck. -

1 pointAs of yesterday, Amai Bouryoku has released a compilation CD of all their songs (minus 嘘キス) entitled 入門盤 (nyuumonban) ("introductory disk"). Includes 6 previously released songs along with 1 new track for only 500 yen. Tracklist: 1. 溺愛シット (dekiai shitto) 2. 本能 (honnou) 3. 君、依存、タトゥー (kimi, izon, tattoo) 4. 笑顔でいるってめんどくさい (egaodeirutte mendokusai) 5. 聞いてもないし、求めてもないのに (kiitemonaishi, motometemonainoni) [*live recording, call and response] 6. ファッションメンヘラ (fashion menhera) 7. 夜乙女 (yoru otome) Unfortunately this CD does not come with a lyrics booklet (probably why it's so cheap)

Mamo reacted to WhirlingBlack for a post in a topic
Agreed, not be able to even fill Budokan after being around for a whole year is a real disgrace. Also source on that Dir en greys success is due to Yoshiki money. He just produced their major debut singles. Songs which were already written and done by the time he came into the picture, lol. I feel like all newcomers overestimate his importance to Dir en grey vastly. -

Any opinions on "Shin Homura Uta"? I'm positvely surprised with it, the rerecordings sound modern, but still have the raw intensity of the original. I honestly didn't expect Tatsurou would still be able to sound that raw and emotional! Really glad these guys are still around and are looking back at their past, their latest album was also great. -
