      Going to have to figure out where to move my Japanese collection to then. I don't like foobar and winamp, using MusicBee for everything non-Japanese, but can't find something similar with a built-in Last.fm scrobbler yet.

      @Lestat i have a scrobbler for the iOS music app on my iPod. I am sure the last.fm scrobbler will be compatible with the new Music app very quickly and I'm also sure they won't phase out iTunes support right away. I think we are OK. I'll let you know if i find out anything else.

      Last.fm doesn't work with music on my ipad, so I had to purchase another scrobbler. They're usually a few cents so no problem there. I think last.fm is unreliable tbh.

      @Komorebi right? and there's something very cool about how the word "chedoara" looks! although i wonder how "ki" changed to "ke" and then to "che" in mind of whoever made up the album name

    3. Komorebi

      Komorebi

      Now the writting in separate syllables makes a bit more sense. Barely lol.
      I'd love to ask them that.

      Now I feel bad for butchering the album title since it has such a cool meaning with lots of thought put into it ^^; Thank you for letting us know the right way of saying it @yomii XD

       

      o_o That's how you pronounce Zyean's name? Wow. Things I'll never get right about visual kei, lol.

      Sadly gone out of money rapidly and also hadn't enough motivation to save for the concert, so no gayzette for me. I'm from Saint-Petersburg btw.

    3. yomii

      yomii

      gayzette lol

      the live was great btw~ ive never seen them live before and i must admit they have great energy. also heard miyavi and diru are coming next year btw, dunno how true is that though

    4. Naaaaani

      Naaaaani

      I saw them 3 years ago in Moscow and I can't say I was impressed so much though I liked their Dogma stuff. Definitely going to see Dir en grey once more but don't care for Miyavi anymore since his transformation into a pop singer.

      Few days ago friend told me that they're going to russia this autumn, and it will be their "business trip", and asked not to tell anyone about it bc they're still negotiating xD it seems it's not a secret anymore 

  5. so every now and then i try to listen to the gallo and each time it doesn't work. requesting recommendations〜 which are their brightest moments? ☆

      yomii

      thank yall! i might have heard something of your recommendations but since i gave up each time i don't remember a single song so〜 gonna try one more time

      you know, i had the same story with lynch - tried getting into them for several fucking years and one day i just heard that one song, making me end up as a fan. would be fun if the same magical thing happened again

      @Doesn'tEvenGoHere I had that problem too, but I can't promise that you'll just eventually get used to it.  What did it for me was reading the lyrics and finding out that I actually really liked them, so in turn I came to accept the vocals.  Now I think Jojo has a unique voice so I like it for that reason, but I think for me it's more out of respect and it's not a "his voice is great" sort of thing.  You can get used to them, but you might not necessarily ever like them and that's okay

    4. yomii

      yomii

      tbh can't say i have problems with jojo's voice - it sounds idk bright and sharp? and i love fast vibratos, like gara's for example. i think i just couldn't get aesthetic of their music so far ._. have to find something that i could feel related to.

      lol, 'retro future shopping mall' is a good description. I've been getting a bit of '80s city pop vibes too.

      @CAT5 Agreed! It’s a great way to get exposed to new artists/genres that I might have not listened to on my own otherwise ^^ Looking forward to participating in the next one~

  9. so im sorting songs by the year of release for the trade-off and god i'm a fucking dinosaur, i remember release of no alternative 2.0 which came out in 20 fucking 09

      smb posted a song of maria's despair on russian social network and attached a pic with koyasu in it and that's how i found out about the thing. apparently not a lot of people know koyasu and even less know maria's despair, so now somewhere in russia people are sure that the band consists of four people including koyasu....

  11. i wish everyone here joined the trade-off so that we could enjoy the beauty of music and have fun all together ♡ but one person will do too we need to begin the damn game

      thank you for hosting trade-off this time btw! but have you decided not to participate yourself to start it? that feels wrong...o:

    3. Shir0

      Shir0

      ofc,  no need to thank me haha Im not as experienced  as the other mods to host a trade-off but I hope it will turn out good. No not exactly I know it's kinda weird lol but I thought I'll announce the pairs as planned so everyone can start with their mixtapes and reviewing while I look for someone who might spontaneously pair up with me so it depends on whether I can find someone of not in that time? 

    4. yomii

      yomii

      well last time everyone was late with their mixes and reviews so i think you have enough time for finding a partner! good luck, hope it turns out alright~

      Part of me is excited for this, the other part is bracing for massive secondhand-embarrassment. 😛

    2. yomii

      yomii

      why? her latest album was pretty good i think, and her latest single was too~ new album cover feels somehow strange tho

    3. CAT5

      CAT5

      Oh yeah her last album was def. pretty good. Didn't hear the latest single, but in general, I feel like she's been making some questionable decisions this past decade, so it's left me cautiously optimistic is all ^^

  17. okay now i've listened to heisei finally and i must say the songs themselves are great, despite the questionable mixing, although has its pluses too and i appreciate that they tried a new approach. i like how lime's voice sounds like it's live, 東京 first seconds sound so emotional i wanna cry...

    1. sleepy coffee

      sleepy coffee

      stalker has easily become one of my favorites from their entire discog

    2. yomii

      yomii

      yeah it's very powerful too! all the songs from the single deliver emotions really well, i can feel the pain almost physically w it's nice that kizu doesn't just keep going with their "one aggressive hit song+b-sides" pattern. would be nice to see the pv but at this point i'm kinda losing hope i think

    3. sleepy coffee

      sleepy coffee

      Idk how legit it was but I read some article that translated one of kizu's posts when the single dropped that their goal was to get the music video out before april 30th, so I guess we still have a couple days

  18. lol @ mama. bassist promoting the band in the rock and read twitter thread aimed at fans

      no one even mentioned this band besides him lol

    3. suji
  19. not gonna listen to henna merry go round until my copy arrives cuz theres no fun in buying cds and not listening to them even once lol. but cdjp hasnt even shipped it yet i hate that

    2. nomemorial

    3. sleepy coffee

      sleepy coffee

      LOL mines also shipping with virge, the pain

  20. ok you remember that story when cd japan shipped my order two weeks later after the actu release? so today, in the exact day when kebyo announced their new single i finally got that order which contained their latest one and gulu gulu release and you know what - gulu gulu cd box is cracked lmao i can't

    dear lord please let it be my most unfortunate order ever

  24. i bought an omnibus thinking i found a song by hanon i've never heard but it turned out to be song i've known for years lol. there are so many songs by monaural curve i haven't heard yet and it seems i'll never do...ugh

    1. WhirlingBlack

      WhirlingBlack

      I collect hanon stuff too, nice to meet you. Was it the denki monologue one?

    2. yomii

      yomii

      wow, nice to meet you too! didnt expect to meet his fan lol. yeah, you're right. i dont remember if he posted this song on youtube some years ago or i found it somewhere else, but this is def a song which was already available on the net. btw he asked on twitter a month ago or so which songs monaural curve should play on the live and some completely unknown for me titles appeared there, which is pretty frustrating :c
