appl-

Afaik all their official uploads stuff is on this channel

kinda liked my look yesterday night so ... hi there.
 

 

www.forum.com

still existing favs: SAVAGE, DIMLIM, early DEZERT, Kizu maybe
 
 
disbanded: AvelCain - kings of darkness. D.I.D. is amazing too.

Never gave a chance to this band and honestly I like that.also,the guitar tone is very agressive,with good riffs,and this kind of shitty/chaotic production doesn't bother me,it's dirty and filthy,very cool.

They all look so good!! This Ayuto look is on point 👏👏

Yeah this is really good. I think the production is more on point than other recent kotokei bands. That guitar tone and the bass is really great how they mix in and out of each other. Good start to 2019.

maybe someone will translate their last messages? Please??
it's scary because everything sounds like a total end....

now it's official,i'm absolutely in love with this mini.
loved the characteristic 90's guitar tone,and the  riffs are familiar but yet pretty original.the hypnotic and effective bass lines,
the lonely/melancholic atmosphere...even Karma's whiny vocals fits perfectly with the tight and smooth production
the piano as first and last track gave it an elegant touch just like the album artwork,i enjoyed that.
seriously,i didn't expect it to be so accessible and catchy.
 
(someone create a topic for rands,so we can discuss it freely.)

i don't even know what people who never liked AvelCain are doing here in this thread. '--'

Actually not. Depain never disbanded, just went on hiatus and came back with one new member and changed name. They play "Depain" songs during their lives even nowadays. 

"Trust me, I'm a photographer"

Dimlim announced a new single for June. I forgot the title (I think its 離人 ?) and no details yet so I'm posting it in this thread for now.
 
Also, set list for their countdown live (not in order after Ambitious. Sorry I was drunk)

i'm in love with this sound 😮 

So some updates from tanuki:
 
the venue was sold out.
90% of the people there were kuroyuri fans.
mei confirmed this is both the first and last time he will perform with this "band" (i.e. it's not a continuous session band).
he did 3 songs for his solo part, and then he participated in the "band" as well.
there's no actual setlist atm because they didnt recognize all songs, this is the only one confirmed so far. 
 

Not the exact order but I can tell you what they played
 
青いレインコート
コワいクライ
死にたい
カミソリ
排水口
大雨警報発令
不感症 
青空やめて
人間界からの手紙
雪時計
どす黒い
ピストル
アサガオが泣いてる(but they cut it? It seemed to be on purpose because Kazuki made a joke about it but it was weird)
ラブレター
マザレナイ
感電、けがの恐れがあります x2 (first time normal, second time just instrumental until the chorus and then Kazuki had us do wall of death then the usual mosh)
 
Encore 1
寄り道
のろいうた
チューリップ
うそつき
 
Encore 2
反骨ドッグ
(This was definitely unplanned cause the camera crew was already packing up when they came back out. Also about half of the crowd had already left to line up for buppan so everyone was pushing and shoving to get back in. I honestly think that was a bad call on their part.)
Timely paid for the Family Mart radio promos. Dadaroma and Razor also got them for almost all their releases since last fall. Idk how much that really helped them, though. I saw two big changes in the crowd this year, but rather than the radio promo I think it was because they played with Dadaroma, Razor and DOF a lot. There are a lot of Dadaroma fans that started coming from the twoman tour last year and the kaenbin tour this year. 
 
Also no, not every show from the last tour sold out. Both days in Nagoya, Osaka and Tokyo and one of the days in Sendai  were sold out but for the whole tour they only played at super small venues that hold around 100-130ish people. So yeah, sold out but they only played to a small crowd.
Yesterday was technically "sold out" in that all the tickets were sold but the venue wasn't completely filled. There was a crazy girl who bought 70 tickets and definitely didn't sell all of her extras. The same girl did this shit on Halloween as well which was also "sold out".
XAA-XAA also likes to say lives are sold out when they're not so don't trust them on that. (speaking as a fan)
I've been going to XAA-XAA's lives for almost 3 years and I can tell you with confidence they will never play Belmosaic songs. They have no reason to.
名も無き空へ, however, was originally a song from 6-sense (Kazuki, Reiya and Haru's band before Belmosaic) but I haven't heard them play it since Roji left the band. 

Of course its great to sell out a venue regardless of size, however, they legitimately sold out bigger venues when Roji was still in the band and before that crazy girl started coming. I don't think they'll ever reach the same level of popularity they had around the time they released 雨に殺される.
I wouldn't go so far as to call them scummy but speaking as a long time fan I don't approve of some of the ways XAA-XAA are selling themselves recently, ie having more instores than lives, raising oneman ticket prices when they're still not a big band, having a 50,000 yen ($500)  fanclub trip to Nagano when bigger bands like Royz and Diaura have better trips for around the same price, etc. 
I still wish them the best, though. 
 
As for An, yes, he's not as popular as the other three but the old fans have warmed up to him and he has gotten a few more fans besides those who followed him from Elm. 
I personally still don't like him but I was a big fan of Roji.

souds gooooood! 
i think i'm the only Makoto fan here. anyone?

FINALLY!!! FINALLY THEY'RE COMING TO LONDON AFTER 11 YEARS!! I'm not missing this out for anything. 
 
British folk better not disappoint, we don't want these mfs to take another decade to come back. 

wtf. i enjoy this album. what is going on

Hm I liked less tracks than I thought I would still it’s not as worse as i thought after reading the comments and I mean it might turn out great in full vesion? 
Looking forward to where this will go  

sounds so good!!!

They found his luggage. The thief left it at Ikebukuro Edge and stole his iPod only... they realised his make up and stage costumes were useless. So gladly he got them back.
