it's almost like there were 4 years of shows and a prior release that clearly set the tone of his solo performances under the "souen" title as being ballad covers with orchestral or piano arrangements 🗿 anyway as someone who was at the show in january the portion with the japanese instruments is sublime, glad to see it being preserved even though it seems he couldn't secure the licenses for all of the songs. ryuichi himself was in attendance for that forever & ever performance which is pretty wild

Hi,
I haven't visited here in awhile, but I remember there being a download section for music, PVs, concerts etc.  I can't seem to find it now.  Was it removed, or am I just not seeing/finding it for some reason?  Thanks!

interesting lineup indeed!

Song of the day

My interest in visual-kei made my friend introduce me to this place, I've never been on a forum before so I think this is very interesting...! I know it's not necessarily a genre of music, but the music of the sub-culture is what intrigued me... I discovered the stuff upon meeting a vk guy.DEG was my first proper introduction, of course, but my favorites are Malice Mizer (and members of), MUCC, the Gazzte, Velvet Eden, and that's all of what's coming to mind. I don't know what else you dandy people need to know to understand what I'm doing here(?) Well, I like art... I am pretty darn extreme about some things, too. Yes! I think that's all...??

Though I don't know that I ever really left intentionally. But after handling a lot of really life changing events in my life, I'll probably be around more consistently!
I don't know much going on in the visual kei world as of late, but I'm still following the Japanese metal scene as much as I can. Excited to hear 12012 is coming back? or did i dream that news up? 
 
But hey if you like Japanese metal, or older visual kei groups like KuRt, SKULL, 12012, GALEYD, and stuff around those time frames, what's good let's chat it up!
 
I also like BTS, A.C.E and Dreamcatcher
And I listen to a lot of lo-fi, indie pop, and 80's music in general. 
 
Yes Hi, hello.

Hi, my name is hiko.
 
I’ve been a fan of Visual Kei for a really long time now, many years, but I have always listened to Jrock anyway
 
I am from Japan, though Japanese is not my first language as I’ve always been bilingual with English and Japanese
 
I am a big fan of X JAPAN, and for X I’d say I idolise Yoshiki and Taiji the most.
 
I also like L’Arc~en~Ciel, I have been their fan ever since I was a child.
 
I have been to various Jrock concerts, though I can’t go to many since I live on an Island in south Japan (Awaji Island) and am unable to travel
 
But some of the Jrock concerts I have been to are:
HYDE x5
VAMPS x2 
Dir en grey x1 
the GazettE x1
L’Arc~en~Ciel x3
Plastic Tree x4 
 
My actual name is Hideko (it sounds like a grandma name so hiko is cooler) 

You can send me a message whenever you want!
 

Gratuated college today

Radical idea: how about Cleaver Sleazoid rerecording will feature Hazuki? 
 
 
 

Toshi apparently deleted almost all Instagram posts related to X and even the ones mentioning hide so it seems the rift is pretty big between them now so I doubt the announcement will be the album. My buddy who asked Pata what was up at a tokyo yankees gig last year got a reply that made it seem like X was going on a break too so : / 

And 12012 is reforming too, so the guitarist will likely be leaving for 12012 and replaced?
if Leda joined breakin' holiday at this point, it'd be very hilarious.

12012 will restart activities. Further details on future activities will be announced later.
