just gotta drop my 2 cents in a more visible place: i'm of the opinion that visual kei has been dying for a good minute. but rock "died" in mainstream american music too and its still around. vk will have the same fate. as long as there's japanese people willing to be visual kei, and international english speaking fans willing to listen, then mh will always be here. and even if you have fallen out of love with japanese music, we are still here for you too. at some point, we've grown beyond a site for music and we've become a community and a family, and that is the secret sauce that has allowed us to outlive all our competition.

Finally, my preciousss 💝

Keeping the memory of this band alive. People on this board and elsewhere definitely like worse shit so I'd call them underrated. Totally unique sound, even when they were doing "fillers." Tzk's and MiA's interplay is something that happened once and will never happen again. Tzk's lyrics too are so particular to him even in translation

Their second single 「侵蝕リフレイン」 will be released on 2019.03.13. (2160 yen) Tracklist : 1.侵蝕リフレイン(Shinsoku refrain) 2.狂喜の国のアリス(Kyôki no kuni no Alice) 3.conflict.. 4.パントマイム(Pantomime)

Pretty telling how people dislike it because it involves Karma, but since it's not br00tal and AvelCain-ish enough it's regarded the worst of all (even tough AvelCain was even shittier, since additional to sucky vocals no one could write or play instruments). The same people however praise nostalgic indie shit like La'veil Mizeria to the heavens, despite Kikyo being just as incompetent in holding his notes. If this band had some no1curr vocalist people would be creaming themselves, yelling "true saviors of Visual kei!".

Same music quality, better vocals. Next

This kind of music mades me hate his voice. It fit well in stuff like PSYCHO, but in this song it sounds awful. One of the most overrated vocalists in the whole scene lol

Their live on 2019.03.25 at OSAKA MUSE is free but if you buy a ticket, a DVD (5 live songs from that live) will be sent to you later on. You will have to fill the application form so that they will be able to send it.

I can't get excited until I hear Jin singing a chorus that isn't the same one he always does. Idk if he genuinely recycles the melodies or if his distinct voice just makes everything sound the fucking same.

AvelCain was a band with good moments in a largely forgettable discography, and those moments were when they managed to sound somewhat like a band and still retain that spirit. The problem wasn't that they were raw or something ( although the general consensus on MH is still that if a vocalist wouldn't be up to scratch competing in American Idol, he's probably shit and certainly not something one could be playing to their friends and relatives, ) but that they could barely even decide on a sound between all the chinese restaurant ost gimmicks, nu metal riffs and vaguely old school ballads and freak outs; and all of this exploration was being done with minimal musicianship while still insisting on having a clean studio sound ( which sounded awful to the point of almost being reminiscent of western vk production ) and making defined songs instead of bursts of noise which they probably should've been doing instead. For every Psycho and ID they had an ocean of mediocrity that Karma's lifestyle performance art took a level above. Idk what's the totality of their composition credits but I wouldn't be surprised if everything they made themselves was shit. This project sounds like he's finally going for something, a sound with a concise aesthetic and the influences he's working with here definitely mean that this is in the right side of history even if it isn't the best thing going so poseurs leave the hall.

After another fan mistreatment scandal, Issei will leave Nazare. The remaining musicians will stick together, the songwriting will improve drastically and they will become the next big thing.

I am

*Pantomime

because no matter 1st, 2st or 3st, each one is their best, yo

"2st"

I haggled that bandit who tries to make you pay a 200 gold road toll in Skyrim down to 50 gold without killing her/looting it back and now my brother thinks I'm pathetic

The tracklist was also available. Tracklist : 1.夢舞う大泥棒(Yume mau oodorobou) 2.かごめ唄 (Kagome-uta) 3.林檎飴(Ringo ame) 4.必殺卍和風オムライス!(Hissatsu manji wafû omu-rice) Tomorrow, a preview of かごめ唄 (Kagome-uta) will be revealed, then it will be 必殺卍和風オムライス!(Hissatsu manji wafû omu-rice), then the band will publish the whole clip of 夢舞う大泥棒(Yume mau oodorobou).

Lol maybe I was a bit too hard on that album. I actually still enjoy it, but it more or less at time time felt like we were calling it amazing when really we didn't have a great perspective at the time. It's a good album, but man, it ain't -that- good. Oh boy do I ever have opinions on this. I think this is just starting the surface of this topic, there's a lot of meat in these bones. Not to say Kpop is the soul reason for the VK but crash abroad, but it certainly was ready to fill it's spot. Perhaps this deserves it's own topic.

Bought these lovely Sadie singles from @ghost who was an awesome seller! Thank you so much for the CDs ^-^

I think her nostalgia for an era when she would've had absolutely no chances of taking off is very cute ❤️

Ordered some interesting stuff, and some not so interesting! The not so interesting: The Gazette - TOUR 2006 NAMELESS LIBERTY SIX GUNS @ BUDOKAN Limited Edition Now for my interesting stuff: Nightmare - Star Knight (live limited, only available from their 2007 appearance at Budokan) Various Artists - Yougenkyou -moon-, I only ordered this because I love the song Okuribi by The Gazette

you and I are the only people with ears on this thread .

Just realized that Leyona released a new album called "SMMR" last month. It's on spotify, so Imma def have to check it out cuz this is pretty dope. Shout out to the bassist from PETROLZ in the video, rockin the afro!

1st E.P「次回予告」covers Type A Type B

this is so good y'all

First thing I had in mind too. lmao

people who hate jazz music probably like THE RAID

so much drama over an average quality song karma's vocals are really bad (if you watched avelcain dvd you could notice he can't sing a single note for longer than, like, 1 second at best), but they can still sound enjoyable in recordings. there are some really nice moments in the song, but i can see nothing special here.

@ricchubunny @yomii @karai · ebi Barely had the chance to read up on everything on this thread and im blown away. Thanks so much for sharing all that all of you, gives these songs a new breath of light and im even more into them now and i didnt think that was possible. ❤️ A truly amazing concept a powerful message and a ton of emotion from these guys I cant wait to hear more and dive into future songs of theirs.

I was actually trying to say it's garbage but nice attempt @emmny

You're welcome! They have lot of additional information that you only know if you go to instores/read interviews, so I try to share it as much as I can to the fans who doesn't have access to that or don't speak japanese. It makes the band way more enjoyable

here everyone

I know right! That gives a lot of meaning to the words "Maybe I've thrown away my life once, but I was saved by music and managed to survive" before singing that song. I love how he write songs about the ages that "marked" him. Juugo is about when his classmate passed away, and he started to question God when he was 15. I hope he write more "age" songs 😮

I'm just gonna also point out for many of my friends that fit the narrative of jumping from J-rock to K-pop, and not just J-pop itself... I can tell you the number 1 reason was accessibility. Japan labels started closing many inroads to the west, region blocking their channels, having all the fan videos deleted, and making it very hard to buy stateside unless you went to a type of convention. Where when the "boom" of interest happened that wasn't the case. And also.. the price. K-pop is DRASTICALLY cheaper to collect. So in a way, yes it fills their need for ~exotic Asian musics~ because it's still fun and brightly colored without being so time consuming and wallet draining. I won't even go into the difference in fandom cultures here. But I don't think a lot of J-music fans see it from the other side and how much Japan intentionally shut out a lot of the more casual western fans.

Same here. These ten years listening to VK made me forgot that I crushed on it because first I crushed on J-music, and anime openings and OSTs in general are responsibles for. Since I was very little I felt very overwhelmed when my favorite openings came to play and also very curious about how Japanese sounded and was written; I went head over heels to it, despite my family and friends looking down on it. It's still a mystery to me why, if almost every 90s kid grew up watching anime in a daily basis, J-music fandom was and still is considered a freak thing...

Why the guitars are mixed so low? TBS had an awesome production. Nothing new speaking about Jin, he's just like Ai from deathgaze, doesn't matter how many new bands he will form it's going to be the same thing.

Do NOT

Every year, I take a notebook where I write all I listen. And when comes December, I lose the notebook. So I guess this would be better with this thread ! --edit-- 05/23 : Finally got the first 5/5 with the Klan Aileen's new album, really a fantastic album ! 07/08 : I abandoned my list once again, aaah 07/14 : WAW found Minami Deutsch's new album, that's really really dope ! 08/09 : I'm trying to restart my list, I surely forget some things (like singles), but it's okay

Dunno why isn't anyone talking about this group but HOLY SHIT ALL THE '80s RETRO ANIME NEW-WAVE CYBERPUNK FEELZ BOIIIIIII Basically Bubblegum Crisis OST: The Band. They just released their first album and it's hnnnnngggg so good~

I haven't combed over these thoroughly, but higher incidence of hearing loss might be attributed to ethnicity/genetics*. As for women, my understanding is that men are more prone to hearing loss**. It might seem like it happens more to female Japanese musicians (w/ how clumped these incidents are) , but I'm assuming the heightened coverage is just coincidental (implying that Japanese men might have as much, if not more hearing loss)***. Musicians, especially live performers, are more prone to hearing loss.**** https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.3109/03005369609076781 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22124888 https://www.researchgate.net/publication/44568755_Hereditary_hearing_loss_and_deafness_genes_in_Japan Also, there are a lot of things that can contribute to hearing loss and dizziness. Just throwing ideas around. * I mean genetics obviously plays a role in hearing loss. I'm implying here that maybe Japanese or East Asians are more susceptible. ** https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9746707 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1808869415313483 Whether it be hearing loss or tinnitus, it's a bit more complicated than what I initially thought. I was thinking of the 60% v. 40% finding by the CDC. *** @nekkichi brings up a point I completely glossed over here: Collectivist cultures like Japan's tend to misdiagnose or shove under the rug health problems in lieu of getting them actually treated. I think that further compounds the hearing loss diagnoses issue. What's likely is that the musicians probably have a fuck-ton of problems but don't get them treated so they don't become an "inconvenience". (This mentality generally exists w/ everyone but feels more severe given cultural norms) ****
