    NEW BANDS

    @BrenGun is correct. She floated this idea a while ago, and we gave her the same reason then as we did now: it's a lot of work to maintain. Splitting the forum into visual kei and "other" a few years ago took a concerted effort from all of us, and it took hours, and it wasn't perfect. To maintain a "new bands" section would require us to put forth that kind of effort regularly. That work would fall on the staff...and we are not doing it. On top of that, I think that this idea would not work because of user browsing habits. I have observed that users are less likely to frequent a particular sub forum here the more deeply nested that sub forum is, and that's because it is not immediately obvious that the forum is there. It's true for every forum category here, and even for groups, a criminally underrated feature which allows members to construct their own "forums" here. Only a fraction of users here will ever frequent a forum nested more than three levels deep, and barely anyone uses the groups functionality. Even topic tags would be messy because someone would have to tag all of the new band threads, and someone else would have to go through and untag those threads after X amount of time. Nobody is doing that. We could hire an entire team of moderators, give em a color (let's say green), and make that their only task and they still wouldn't do it...because it's a soul crushing task with no reward other than "Thanks!" from some stranger halfway across the planet posting on MH using two coconuts and a McDonald's Wi-Fi connection. Finally, I don't think this would work because of user posting habits (which is related to their browsing habits but is not the same). The News section is so popular because that's where breaking news goes, and then tons of members post their feelings and responses to updates and conversation there. The Artist forum should be the place of 90% of the conversation that happens in the news thread, and we've tried to redirect conversation there in the past, but members just like posting in the News section. 🤷‍♂️ tl;dr: The news section is always going to be packed and clogged with threads. It's a good problem to have. Any attempt at wrangling order out of chaos is futile. Thank you for posting this topic but the answer is no.

    Any old school bands?

    Apart from "Oni to kage" I really recommend their mini album "Mousou shugisha no haitoku.", it's some of their best stuff imo.

    I translated it myself with google translate and dictionary so there may be some mistakes. Lyrics aren’t that deep so i guess no poetic value lost. Muscle training bomb Wake up early in the morning yeah Golden body shining in the sun Nourishment within 30 minutes Body full of protein Instagram is shining, muscle cut is shining Struggling in front of the mirror, half way there Hands holding the weights are shaking Shout for the victory Last one time, fight or fight Macho of the world Face the desire Macho of the world Beyond the muscle Macho of the world Muscle training lifestyle without regret Macho of the world Run to the final stage Muscle fat Body and Soul never ending fat Burn the fat Stoically(?] keep aiming for what continues to hurt Burn the fat Glare at myself, intoxicated with myself Muscle training coming soon, stagnation period, cheat day Before the tournament, perfect physical condition, without water, without salt, carb loading I can do it, my muscles Macho of the world Face the desire Macho of the world Beyond the muscle Macho of the world Muscle training lifestyle without regret Macho of the world Run to the final stage Muscle form of the attacking rivals Here everyone is the hero, beating heart resonating with cheers Body told the truth, i can only believe my body Stand up from your knees Advent of the muscle god Macho of the world Face the desire Macho of the world Beyond the muscle Macho of the world Muscle training lifestyle without regret Macho of the world Run to the final stage

    I randomly came across this weird but cool video of these Russian folk musicians playing Du Hast by Rammstein on traditional instruments. Also featuring a Duduk player who I'm assuming is Armenian, since that's where the instrument comes from

    Worst To First: Dir en grey

    I really don't understand the amount of hate TIW receives since IMHO its tied with Vulgar as my favorite, Vulgar is better lyrics-wise though and that is also the part about TIW that generally feels lackluster. Also RED...[em] solo is so sick, I wish Die had more parts like that in other songs, that song live in the Mode of Vulgar was definitely the highlight to me. I WISH they didnt remake obscure because I hate the new one with a passion, was Kyo getting fucked over by some parts of it? I really dislike Arche though, as an album it feels so disconnected that I only ever listened to it fully the first time and after that only listened to the songs that I actually enjoyed. Coming from DSS, the album that got me into them, to this was such a drop that I am glad I actually enjoyed TIW otherwise I would have probably dropped them by now. This kinda explains the rumor/talk that I always heard about them that they don´t see themselves as friends and more like business partners, although pinpointing sales failure in someone is almost always a bad idea especially when I believe they seem to have similar creative power with Kaoru being slightly above.

    I'm not a huge fan of the song but I'm loving this look. He looks kinda like Yo-ka from DIAURA.

    蘭図 (Rands) first full album release

    I fucking know that the guitar phrase at 1:10 was directly extracted from a VK song I've heard a lot of times, but I can't recall which one! Halpp!!!1 Btw, sill sounding so much like a song from Kuroyume's "Feminism" album (with 'Sugizoesque' solos), bordering plagiarism. But still much fresh than almost anything else today in the scene. So it's a yes for me.

    蘭図 (Rands) first full album release

    Only saw them live once at an event in June but I was really suprised. First time i felt like 1/3 of the audience left the hall before they started playing and coming back when they were finished... although I feel their songs/atmosphere doesnt translate well live - and their singer is still Karma - I've seen way worse bands live and didnt see that happening... (often see people leaving after their favorite band played but those do not come back) (and even tho I should know better I was kinda saddened seeing how underwhelming Takuya looked/played in real life ;_; - but at least Karmas live voice improved a little compared to AvelCain i felt.. while his seemingly arrogant stage behavior stayed)

    蘭図 (Rands) first full album release

    not sure if anyone posted, but amazing cut from their first mini now has an MV birthday of the mom in the vid coincides with the vid date drop, I have a hard time believing that karma would put up his baby videos but this is interesting. Also can't believe they're so unpopular in that live clip LOOLLL

    I also find br00tal stuff to be mediocre the majority of times, but Cazqui's work with symphonic arrangments, contrapunctual guitar and bass lines, harmonic modulations, heavy emphasis on melody, etc. makes the easy-tiring blast beats, guitar chugging and screaming instead very pleasing and interesting. I think thats the reasong why I, who always was suspicious about anything br00tal, came to like Nokubura a lot back when they were still active with their original line-up...

    I came back to say that just now I discovered that Nocturnal Bloodlust have a song called "macho of the world" and there I was hoping to see the lyrics since they are usually in english but this one is in japanese. Damn Someone, anyone know where I can find the translation for this? Or know if it is as precious as I think it is? Also, I'm always excited to hear they singing in japanese, can't wait to listen to the song. It's from august... I've been living under a rock this year because I had no internet conection at home nor time at work to do non-worky things, and it finally came back some days ago, there's another reason I'm back and hopefully to stay, oh, also, I'm finishing college this year, hooray. I'll be back to my precious music listening habits hopefully. I google macho of the world (without specifying the band's name since the title sounded pretty exclusive to them) at work and a bunch of gay porn showd up. Hello again to all. And nice to meet you all again, I suppose I'm not very known here.

    Worst To First: Dir en grey

    Love them or hate them, almost everyone's got an opinion about Dir en grey. The scene stops to listen whenever Dir en grey announce a new single or album. As a long time fan of the band, I think it's the perfect time to express how I feel about all of their albums. My feelings will differ from album to album. Some albums have had the benefit of twenty years and others only a few months, so that's always going to be a factor in how I rank things. I will cover this from my least favorite album to my most favorite album, but by no means take this as a definitive list for Dir en grey. Everyone will have their own rankings and their own suggestions for where to start. I happen to think that this also a great order to introduce someone to this band. This is a perfect topic for those that don't listen to Dir en grey or don't know where to start, current fans looking for spicy opinions and a pot to stir, or even old fans looking for a reintroduction into their new era. Not only have I included a PV for each album as a sampler, but I also put together suggested playlists for each album. The playlists are the order that I would have arranged the band if I were them. The songs are the songs that I believe are the best from each period. Some will require more effort than others to construct. To make it simpler, I have included my favorite three tracks and one music video from each album. I will not consider the mini albums MISSA and six Ugly in this analysis, but some of those tracks will appear in the playlists I create. DUM SPIRO SPERO Album No: 8 Released: August 2, 2011 Length: 67:31 鬼葬 (kisou) Album No: 3 Released: January 30, 2002 Length: 69:57 THE MARROW OF A BONE Album No: 6 Released: February 7, 2007 Length: 50:05 ARCHE Album No: 9 Released: December 10, 2014 Length: 68:01 🎖️The Insulated World🎖️ Album No: 10 Released: September 26, 2018 Length: 50:27 🏅Withering to death.🏅 Album No: 5 Released: March 9, 2005 Length: 51:14 🥉MACABRE🥉 Album No: 2 Released: September 20, 2000 Length: 72:57 🥈GAUZE🥈 Album No: 1 Released: July 28, 1999 Length: 64:47 🥇UROBOROS🥇 Album No: 7 Released: November 11, 2008 Length: 58:54 👑VULGAR👑 Album No: 4 Released: September 10, 2003 Length: 57:02 That's everything folks! Thanks for reading all the way to the end! Did you like it? Did you agree? Do you have your own rankings? Leave them below! I'm interested to know what everyone's opinions are, especially since Dir en grey is one of my favorite bands ever. So many people are passionate about this band like no other. If enough people liked this, I may follow up soon with one for the GazettE. Until next time

    Not a huge TV person, but that's piqued my interest too. While I was vaguely familiar with the Tulsa Race Massacre, I only learned of the Wilmington insurrection of 1898 (which happened in my own state) this year from the Vox video below:

    http://livesetlist529.blog133.fc2.com/blog-entry-26519.html Setlist from the second one man. Probably fake news tho, since I read on MH that a band would never play songs twice for the encore, and in here it seems like they did so twice. Sending out prayers for rands since someone clearly has it out for them posting rubbish like this
