juka being into scat

Ba.竹田和彦 (Takeda Kazuhiko) (ex-MASK (as Kazutake)) has joined LIPHLICH at their live on June 9!

I don’t know about gossiping, but I for sure LOVE talking trash with my close friends about people we don’t like XD. Or like when you become friends with someone because you hate the same people 😂.

There's a difference between gossip and simply sharing knowledge, and it lies in one's intent. Gossip is usually driven by ill-intentions. The brain/body is built to do many things. However, the manner in which those things are done matters a great deal. The intent matters. For instance, it's probably not a good idea to defend someone's cocaine addiction by saying "well, the brain is built to secrete dopamine anyways!", and just leave it at that. In similar fashion, that would be like explaining away the actions of a rapist by saying "well, science says you were built to procreate, so, it's all good." That's an interesting article you linked, but this is a spiritual issue. So intent matters. You can either try to bring peace and understanding to a matter or you can sow discord and seeds of contempt and condemnation . Gossip tends to do the latter.

Well... there's a difference between talking about someone behind their back because they're a genuinely bad person and talking about someone behind their back because of "the tea". I think the first one is okay because they deserve to have people warned against them if that's the case, but the second one can actually be really hurtful. Just because we can do something, that doesn't mean we should. I also greatly disapprove of those people who think it's okay to just straight-up lie about people for the sake of entertainment. Yeah, okay, our brains can process it, but the person whose expense it's at can't, hence why they get so upset; and rightfully so. Chances are, if people are willing to gossip about someone else, they're willing to gossip about you. It's all very well and good until it comes back to bite you on the arse. Besides, we could go on forever about things our brains are built to process. They're also built to process having a tiger chase us - hence our fight or flight response - but that doesn't mean you should go to the jungle and provoke a seven-hundred-pound predator.

lol, I can imagine. Gossip is inherently toxic. I used to indulge in it and hang around others who did as well, until I realized A) It's dull, life-less chatter that doesn't benefit anyone or anything and B ) I'm a grown-ass man. And any grown man that sits around gossiping is not much of a man at all. That's some simp shit. Ancient wisdom tells us a few things like: "A gossip betrays a confidence; so avoid anyone who talks too much." "A perverse person stirs up conflict, and a gossip separates close friends. " and I've found these both to be true. The same people I used to gossip with are the same people who are quick to talk shit about me (behind my back) today. As these types of ppl have no integrity and are basically fake as hell. And I've also literally lost friends (or ppl i thought were friends at least) over things that other ppl said about me. As truth doesn't matter to these kinds of ppl - they'll take one side of a story and run with it, instead of diligently seeking into a matter. So yeah, gossip is just toxic. It's a like a black hole of drama and chaos. But I can definitely say that I've been much more productive and my life has been much more positive since I made a conscious effort to avoid gossiping and gossipers alike!

I pray for someday heteronormativity just erases off from the vk scene. It's just so weird that every musician within it pretend to be full cis-straight in a scene where the basic dress-code is actually cross-dressing. I guess heteronormativity could never look so stupid itself.

idk if this counts but i once read on wikipedia that DIO - Distraught Overlord's Mikaru once bit some guys' balls during a live.

The weirdest ones I can think of on the top of my head is that tanuki thinks Gara (MERRY) is a germaphobe and Hizaki supposedly throws hissy fits. x) Plus Kisaki having tons of STDs but given the things that's been uncovered, well.........🤷‍♀️

Trap king Satsuki dropping more heat for the streets ESKETITT 🔥🔥🇺🇦

Vo.カルト(Cult) (てんさい。(Tensai.)) apparel brand "DARK DRUG" has been launched https://darkdrug.thebase.in/

Ok.... so Maria has not taken any dates at cyber down, which must mean he is free to keep doing whatever he pleases there.... Japan is so terrible in some regards.... On the other hand, Kaitou keeps releasing taiban dates, meaning they did not get a live house ban from exposing Maria. I am happy for that. You should not have to end your career for doing the right thing.

Yeah I've actually thought the same thing tbh, the use of the 8th string seems totally un-necessary and even if they'd stuck to 7 strings it'd sound way better as some of the riffs get pretty muddy and hard to make out, and with 7 strings would have way more clarity. Like some of those riffs are kind of cool but because it just sounds so sludgy and messy it doesn't do the riffs justice at all.

Their first live will be on 2019.08.31 at Shinsaibashi FANJ ! Members : Singer : れいや (Reiya) Guitarist : 咸(Mina) Bassist : 暮橋夕羽(Kurehashi You) (i.D.A support, ex-Kronos Cat) Twitter : https://twitter.com/koukaofficial

I can't work out if that's creepy or funny.

he is also ex-DIEALO....this is sad xD

I hate when legends of metal die. And I also hate pondering about death...

@nekkichi - sis, I love you, but you just completely missed my points, and now you just debating for debate's sake. I feel where ya commin' from overall tho. Me personally, i'm good on all that gossip stuff. I would never recommend it, but aye, do what works for you - i ain't mad at it!

Like I said, just because you can do something doesn't mean you should. If they're not worth mediating - that is to say, if they're so low that they're not even worth helping - why are they worth talking about? It won't do anything and there are more important things to be doing and more important conversations to be had; like this one, for instance. I know I probably sound like an old fart, but that's my two cents. Right, but that doesn't explain why we deserve to pry into innocent people's private lives when they haven't actually done anything wrong. I know more stories that may or may not be true about people doing whatever than I care to purely from overhearing what people near me have said, but I don't know any sex offenders in my area.

can't wait for yoga gays to occupy the territory

And bleach movie

咸 (Mina) is ex-i.Rias. I actually like the promo picture. It gave me a good chuckle.

it's a 2nd track on story too. I think so too judging by the price. I hope most of new songs are good, not the 2:3 good to filler songs ratio they've been doing before hiatus

wtf ☝️😱😵

gross

It's also the same thing for "It 's just love" which was only released in single, I don't think the songs they have already released will be remastered or rearranged. My hype is near to 0 for this album.

Infantilism in vk needs to die. Otherwise, I'm glad Reiya is back since I really liked all the bands he was in.

First it's face reveals, now (since Ari) it's baby pictures. What will the next VK fad be?

Singer is ex MeLt, QuaLiA, Link

Sui is considering releasing the DVD and CD overseas as well - about time considering the Global store hasn't been updated since Stigmata was announced.

My favorite is that Ryuutarou from plastic tree has a raging fetish for smelling the scalp of women he sleeps with. Also Meto and another member from a band I can't remember started fighting or smth and fell out of a window together??

I agree with everyone that has mentioned that the song seems disjointed, but nonetheless, they seem promising! I'll be keeping an eye on them.

Good. Both should disband and stop trying to make this work. Put it out of its misery.

By far, the best photo

I did too lol

I agree. Their "flow" is so inconsistent and it feels like three different songs haphazardly pieced together. They're not bad, they just need to focus on construction.

serving

UGHHHHH you're so lucky..... Why they do that when I move abroad....

It was for a game called Wizardry Online.

Honestly this bands pretty bad but for some reason I can't stop listening to them everyday because I have bad taste. If they had a better vocalist and dropped the shitty rave-kei songs they'd be one of the best vk bands around imo. I like the songwriting much more than early dimlim.

except for the fact that the fonts are barely legible

I saw Yoshiki at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen bags of potato chips in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired from recording the new X-Japan album and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bags and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to preserve the spiciness,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a thing. After she scanned each bag of chips and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

They should feed an AI song-writing program a bunch of Visual Kei songs of each type, and see if it can come up with the ultimate songs.
