@psychonnect_rozen lmaoaoa nothing happened i was just complaining about everyone complaining all the time don't mind me

I think pretty much every band had/has SOMEONE who doesn't like them, even if they're not that vocal about it. But as for saying like the majority supported a certain band, I also disagree with that because I'm sure there's some corner on the internet where VK fans gather/used to gather where the consensus might be totally different. I mean I remember hearing that Latin American fans are obsessed with Versailles, like on another level. Also seconding @Disposable on the fact that "the scene is different and we are older" because I think that plays a lot into it. But all of you saying you dislike 9goats, pls turn in your VK card, I'll be collecting them at the window over here from 9 pm tonight

Other bands just don't get the rocket attached to them quite like say, Mejibray did and then the negative response is also quieter. For a band like that I'd go ahead and say that Kizu is doing a lot better for itself in the western fandom than a lot of the bands from the Royz era that felt like were going to go somewhere. I can't believe there was a time when even a band like Nega got a lot of people talking every time something was released, and almost like 50% of it must've been nega ( ha ) tive.

I wouldn't count older bands for this one even if some of us were already around ( Kagerou and Deadman. Both the scene is different and we are older which changes things a lot ) nor bands that obviously started sucking hard later on and causing people to turn on them like Mucc and Girugamesh, but even to this day the few who stuck by D'espairsray even after their mortifyingly awful fourth album is beyond me ( and anyone who likes anything off of that album ought to stop listening to music altogether. ) However, I'd also say 9Goats Blackout was decently popular in the western fandom and the handful of people that didn't like them didn't bother reminding people about it all the time. I guess Moran as well and some Ains stuff, but I'd also say that apart from Grieva they didn't really arouse any feelings in the opposition and were therefore largely left alone to disband in their own time. 

@nekkichi - good call with Rentrer en soi. The only real time I remember there being much discord with them is with the release of their S/T album, which was honestly merited given how jarring their change in sound was. I can't remember anyone just straight-up hatin on them tho.
 
also u trippin bout 9goats too. don't blaspheme #artkei like that 🤣

seremedy /s
 
rentrer en soi (during active years, not satsuki solo fuckery)
 
merry
 
I don't remember versatilles being hated on, but I lost interest in them by the time their 2nd album arrived
 
Luna Sea is either irrelevant or got some net stan respect idk,
 
kagerou?
 
that's just the stuff I immediately think about, there's also at least idk guniw tools that seemingly don't have haters
 
9 goats and mago always sucked ass 💔 but their pretentious-ass stans created some false royalty aura around their bullshit music

@Peace Heavy mk II - you think Dimlim and 9goats sucks? Wow, plz unfriend me and unfollow me right now. In fact, wherez my banhammer...

They're saying they like DIMLIM

RAZOR

yeah that's quite an unusual consensus that they be good
wonder how long it will last

Dimlim

I like it with xaa-xaa because it's always been their style. 

Thank you~!

Here's a fun vid to get you started~
 
 

I see. I guess that makes sense. It would be pretty hard to come close to Chemical Pictures for me anyway. They had a really unique vibe. Thanks for your input!

You didn't really miss much, to be honest. Chemical Pictures (along with KuRt) was his peak imo. Lack-co had a vibe similar to KuRt, in that each song had tons of ideas, which sometimes made them a bit disjointed but at least fun. I can't vouch for his other post-Chemical Pictures projects tho.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!! 

No, it's ok! I actually haven't heard those songs in forever, probably not since 2010 or something so thank you! They're great songs ❤️ 

oh nevermind, I just realized you fell out of his stuff AFTER chemical pictures lmao my apologies

congrats~!💕
