Hi! I love forums, I used to be a very active user on forumcommunity (and I still am) where there were some interesting forums about japanese music and alternative culture.

Loving the album cover and the look! They really milked the hell out of that flower brush/filter in Photoshop tho...

Album Cover: New Flyer: Here is the new look:

deg themselves are fantastic, their fans are among one of, if not the worst out of any japanese band/group/musician fandoms

I don't get people who dislikes some bands,but keep an eye on them just to keep confirming they don't like it. Stupid and annoying.

old photo classic

kinda liked my look yesterday night so ... hi there.

Hello everyone, I am a female graphic designer from Austria and I work for a local weekly newspaper. It has been a while since I was actually active in a forum, since every other one got deleted due to inactivity. That's why I mainly used Facebook and Twitter, but at the moment I'm a little fed up by social media, so I thought it would be a good idea to go "back to the roots". When I was a teenager I already listened to J-Rock – mainly since I watched lots of Anime shows and it helped me discover quite a few great bands back then. My clothing style changed over the years, but I have Visual Kei like hairstyles since 2009 – so around 10 years. I enjoy drawing, listening to music, going to the movies, watching tv shows, reading and I am interested in tattoos and piercings, Anime and Manga, Buddhism, japanese culture and language in general, animal welfare and I am also a vegetarian. I currently got two cats – a long haired black and white one and a short haired red and white one. If you got any further questions, feel free to ask or message me.

their fc can do what? I saw the first part translated here

Man,I'm just talking about people who are aware that a certain band is not your thing,but keep complaining about it in every release.Have an opinion is different than bitching around.

Have you heard of a concept called an opinion? Negative, positive, doesn't matter. It's a great thing which prevents taking things too personally once you understand and respect it.

Just knowing how golden bomber is (especially considering that their career is built on parodies too), I don’t think there’ll be any problems with that at least. But two cancelled releases in such a short period of time does make me worried

The supporting members of the concert were: gt.NAO (ex.LOCUS) ba.秀暁(Hideaki) (Insanity Injection) dr.多時(Taji) (ARTiCLEAR)

Set list for yesterday's show and announcements for their next show in May. No singles announced or released, but I see them doing something by then, unless they'll just keep with what they have while Lüstzöe moves into full force. Also, I totally fan boyed when Atsushi followed me back on his Twitter xD

Tyrant just a room away, cue the licker and to top it all off, cunts I killed 2 hours ago come back to life...fuck me. But damn, is the game good.

Good to see Majyu in a new band, hope it's gonna be tolerable. btw can't wait for Hueye's potential side projects Deweye and Louiee

omg im buying this yes !

I love their heavy stuff but also give me an album that sounds like Kaishun pls ty

Yassss we need more razor appreciation

They 're back to sounding like old baroque, yay !

from the comments here I'd say it's working

For some reason I have this feeling that they're really banking on getting some dumb gaijin views by wearing those outfits and having reshot that Attack Attack PV, which will be making the white piggus go "omg so heavy but they look like japanese women xDD omg baby metal" etc.

Just started playing the album. First impression is that it's pitch black and very dense, totally committed to being loud, dark and asphyxiating in the way it's produced and composed. Songs are loaded with shit despite being a bit of a toning down from early DIMLIM, and I like it. My first impression is that it's like this mix of early DIMLIM and a little bit some late 00's nu metal like Unsraw and shit like that. The vocals are awesome with enough personality to be able to be picked out from a line, while still being technically totally acceptable even when they retain this roughness that's characteristic of visual kei. Loads of early DIMLIM and heavier nokubura material callbacks in the songs, which is nice although it doesn't really reach the peaks they sometimes did. I haven't even finished the album yet tho so we'll see. For me personally this album won't have as long of a shelf-life as it will to other people who are fans of this style, and for them it should definitely suffice. Edit: Am I getting a little bored? yyeeaah probably Edit 2: This is why you don't write about anything before you've even listened to it. Idk if I'll spin this again but I'll relisten to some tracks in a bit. Definitely gets more early DIMLIM-esque in the second half although I suppose my earlier comments still hold some water. The best moments I reckon are the first two tracks by a country mile, or that one just gets exhausted of this kind of music when it's not top shelf in what it's doing. Anything further I'll suppose I will write in my 2019 ratings list.

leave the neo oshare to those boys, they know what they're doing

Loving the promotional visuals for this album

drunk & wanted to try making vintage magazine/booklet-esque photos. getting back to VK really pushed me to be more theatrical outside my art again, it's funny all I want to do is perform but I have the 'no mouth & must scream' art ability instead lol... Growing out my hair is going well, oddly i feel more confident. I think I will grow it all the way and maybe one day do some sort of real vk inspired look, but right now it's at too awkward a phase (also no, no eyelashes i have trich)

omg their band name, member names, album names and song titles are such a mess, i won't ever try to listen to them but i love them.

Wow...i find it sad how the creator of sadie's thread on artists page was comparing them to deg which i think led and caused everybody to bitch about how sadie are copycats and now again this thread is created too with someone comparing them to deg... Sadie's every video on YouTube has comments where people are arguing how they are copy cats or not... Heck whenever i see this bands name anywhere, there i find people hating and comparing them to deg... Just stop people,i find it toxic and sickening. There should be a rule regarding creating a artist thread that should prohibit the creator from posting any other info other than members info musical style and stuff cuz the first post matters.

Elvis and C. 16th ± are old These New Puritans songs from the Beat Pyramid album.

ayyyyyy, long time no see

I second the hate for most colorful bands. Can't stand them, especially An Cafe. I also can't stand X Japan. Their music isn't terrible, but their fans treat them like the second coming of jesus when in reality they sound just like any other western 80's metal band. This triggers a special kind of annoyance whenever I hear them. Also I hate Versailles and anything Kamijo does.

Kra has some serious bangers in their discography and it's a shame how they aren't talked about as much, considering how long they have stayed together.

touché, this was definitely more on-topic. But seriously, I've been a long time fan since Blurry Eyes appeared in front of DNA and I didn't realize I had to speak only positively about them! Okay, here goes, Tierra is a desert island disc for me - I hope they play White Feathers at the concert! What I do find fascinating and sorely lacking on forums is really in-depth conversation that goes beyond one-liner comments. The motivations of the band and the individual members are more interesting (whether good or bad) to me now and a simple "L'arc is back!" thread would leave some casual or uninformed fans the impression they are returning. I believed that at first until I read it was just concerts. I simple explained how they might not be back in the way L'arc fans really are hoping for.

Wings Flop jesus I can't so funny

I love the guy, but this barely even sounds like his voice. It sounds like some generic radio rock band started by a bunch of guys in their mid-twenties wearing all black and studded belts like ten years ago.

Hi, everyone. I'm not very big into visual kei as I use to be, but I would like to expand on it. So far I only am I fan of two bands. 0.1gの誤算 and チャイルドプレイ. nice to meet you all.

楽園の黒霧 Rakuen no kurokiri Black fog in paradise 楽園の黒い霧はやがて　悲劇と惨劇を生み出す Rakuen no kuroi kiri wa yagate The thick fog in paradise will very soon Higeki to sangeki o umidasu Bring forth disaster and tragedy 此処が何処なのか　僕は何故存在しているのだろう Koko ga doko na no ka Where am I? I wonder Boku wa naze sonzai shite iru no darou And why do I exist? 深い　深い悲しみの中で Fukai In deep, Fukai kanashimi no naka de Deep sorrow 泣き叫ぶ　がらくたと屍の葬列 Nakisakebu I sob and scream Garakuta to shikabane no souretsu A funeral procession of garbage and corpses 僕を支配していた　血塗れの記憶さえ Boku o shihai shite ita Except this bloodstained memory Chimamire no kioku sae That dominated me 今は何も映さない　肉の塊 Ima nani mo utsusanai I can't reflect anything anymore Niku no katamari The lumps of flesh 全てを失い　瓦礫の中で覚えた Subete o ushinai I lost everything and Gareki no naka de oboeta Remembered amidst the wreckage 孤独と憂鬱に　僕は頭がおかしくなりました Kodoku to yuutsu ni In loneliness and depression Boku wa atama ga okashiku narimashita My mind became confused 世界は　やがて楽園を築き Sekai wa The world Yagate rakuen o kizuki Will create a paradise very soon and 世界は　やがて滅びゆく Sekai wa The world Yagate horobi yuku Is going to perish very soon そして　耐えきれず僕は Soshite And thus Tae kirezu boku wa Unable to bear it anymore 自らの手で　私の存在を Mizukara no te de By my own hand Watashi no sonzai o I erased 殺めました・・・ Ayamemashita My existence... ----- This 'song' has no printed lyrics, all of this was written and translated by ear.
