I just realised that Metis Gretel and Devil Kitty probably used the same drum machines. The cymbals are almost exactly the same, especially the China-cymbal

Had a flashback to when my sister referred Visual Kei as Digital Kei, probably because she couldn't really care to remember the culture I was into. 

Support your friendly neighborhood VK database and give our interview with NETH PRIERE CAIN a read/like:
 
 
Help us trick VK bands into thinking we’re legit 🙏 💕 

Heavens Dust is just Kiryu for Kyles. I mean, holy fuck this screams monster energy drink and punching a wall
 

Death Note coming back in 2 days and NIGHTMARE is also back this year. how about we get a good old reunion here and have them do the theme song if the new Death Note story gets an adaptation 👀

Today I've found what seems to be two old web sites made by Western people that include information about J-rock/pop and/or VK, written by the owners.

I decided to post this information via a status because I couldn't find the thread made by some user for the historical archive project. Could someone share the link for it here? 
 
Btw, may the users interested in this matter report themselves here? Maybe we could meet to finally put our hands into some researching work. Although we all are grown-asses with their own full-dedication lives, I don't think it should take us much hardship. I mean, it shouldn't take more work than looking up for X site (perhaps we should figure out which search engine is the best; Google is not the best alliate for looking up for old web sites) and then simply save the sites' texts (downloading them as a *.pdf file is actually pretty easy, effective and tidy to archive, he).

dreamt about someone on this board forming a band called «melancholia advocates» and giving me their first EP for free 🤔
 
 
they sounded like the black swan, but in English

I just watched a concert on youtube of a band called 筋肉少女帯 which google says means "muscular girl belt". lol 

I'm convinced that iCarly predicted Millennial surrealist humor

I’ve decided for 2020 that I’m gonna expand on my VK CD collection and try new bands at the same time
 
To do this, I’m gonna place all 26 letters of the alphabet in to a randomiser each month, and whatever letter appears I’ll take the band names that Closet Child have and place the names in a randomiser, whatever band is pulled from the randomiser I’ll buy a relatively cheap CD of theirs
 
It’s probs a stupid idea but a good way to build up my collection I suppose 😂

I've arrived back in the States after two very fun and eventful weeks in Tokyo. Leaving was so hard, but I've made it my New Years resolution to start planning to move to Japan permanently this year. I haven't cried this much in a long time.

hi x
 

 

fucking hell Otogi also composed everything in Awoi? what a fucking shame hes retired/vanished 

Merry Christmas~! 🎄
 
 

To whoever it may concern, yuuki (ex. UnsraW) is posting instagram stories with instruments and recording tech and it looks like hes putting down some vocals right now. you guys reckon something will actually come out of this or more false hope 

Incredible. Spotify just told me 8P-SB is my top artist of the year. Which means I listened to them more than even Codomo Dragon. I'm just.... Idk....
 
 

I want to make my youtube channel more a vk channel, but I wonder which contents will be good without getting copyright issues. 

Finally, after a little bit over 1 year and 6 months i am halfway through with slowly but surely copying all my CDs to my harddrive.
Still quite some time will have to pass until i finally digitalized my whole CD collection.
And all only because i used to delete everything i didn't listen anymore for more than a few months... >.>''

Dezert's new album gets better with every listen. It's going in my top albums of 2019. What a come back. 
 
(I'll definitely miss Chiaki screaming tho :() 

So I tried DEZERT's new album, and I don't really plan to go back to it. I think it's a small step in the right direction, but it still doesn't hold up compared to their first two albums.
For one, I think the metal songs are holding back way too much on what they could be. There are no harsh vocals, for one, and while I get that not every metal song needs harsh vocals, these songs could definitely benefit from some screaming parts.
As well, Chiaki's voice just sounds weird. IDK if he just sounds like that now, or if they increased the throat-length setting on the Autotune in order to make him sound "manlier".
IDK what's holding them back, whether it be Danger Crue, or Chiaki himself. Either way, I like it better than TODAY, but I also think it could be much better.
 
At least those are my opinions, all I can do is hope the next album is better

Me trying to explain VK to a friend:

finally decided to start learning JEALOUS that piano opening goes hard af

Two things I'm thankful for: 
1 Cats dont smoke: they'd fall asleep and set the whole damn house on fire.
2. These mf who translate: whether it's music, tv show, video,etc- yall rock!

I thought this was cute. lol 😂
