    Lossless, or the least I will go for is 128kbs if I don't own the CD or if it's a rare or a demo tape. If you go listen to Girl Goomie's only two song they gave out for free, you would want to rip your ears out at how bad it sounds. If they gave a higher bitrate, the songs would definitely sound better. I also converted my best friend into a lossless listener. I bought him a pair of Sennheiser's for his birthday and he was blown away by all the sounds he never heard in songs he listened to; and realized why I always prefer Hi-Fi man lossless player vs an iWhater or Android. Of course I'm not crazy, so I use my Momentum's on the go, cause I'm not gonna carry a DAC and 1k headphones around.
  2. Finally got SPUN!'s Starry Night. I wanted this CD so bad and now I have it! Now I need TRiPPER store distribution CD to complete their disco.

  3. Is the United States suspended from receiving any mail from Japan???? I bought a lot of stuff and they're saying the US is suspended, but I looked at the suspended countries list and we're not even on it.

      Weird, I used the cdj proxy and the only option I had was EMS, no DHL or FedEx.

  4. Got myself the Sennheiser Momentum wireless earbuds. I love it so much! PTO again this week with a 10 hour extra time of double overtime pay. I admit that when I lost my job, I thought it was the end of the world; but now I'm even more happier than ever  since I got a new one.

  5. I love PTO. Now I get to stay home and play OPTC. So lucky it happened during TM event. Also got this CD I wanted for a long time(it came out in 2004). Now I can see the lyrics to one of my favorite songs. Also ordered MIMIC's BLACKBOX twice for some reason.

  6. So I work a desk job in a essential company, and we're in desperate need of people that we are not drug testing because of the coronavirus. So I'm guessing other essential businesses are doing the same thing. So all you recreational drug users, here's your chance to get a job(also we weren't checking for credentials).

  7. I can't believe CieLGraVE disbands this month. They should wait for this pandemic to be over so people would show up say their goodbyes, like me T.T

      Ditto T~T.  At least they uploaded some rare tracks on youtube in preparation for the event!

    If I recall correctly(This is 12 years ago and I'm in my 30s so my memory is blotchy) they did have full PVs because a friend of mine sent them to me when they first came out. I think it died with my hard drive when I dropped it(but I can ask my other friend if he has them, since we were in the same circle and we shared shit all the time.)
  9. OMFG GLACIER IS BACK TOGETHER? WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN? Corona be over I wanna go to a GLACIER Live. My teenage heart can't take this. No wonder HuV songs started sounded more like GLACIER's!

    I literally was shocked then I realized it's still April Fool's Day. I was not ready, now it's just a disappointment, but hey, 8P-SB still bops so haters can exit stage left.
  11. After my constant listening to Dear Dolce bands recently, Kasumi really had a knack for decent bands like Diement., ハル, Brick Break and all your broken up Ains bands came from that label. I still have that video they sent me and Kasumi was like "KITTO-SAN!!!" still fangirling til this day.

    I'm so out of the loop I didn't know Tetsuya left lol. He probably got head hunted by Tenten to reform MBHI, since Tetsuya was the main song writer(we all know Re:My BACTERIA HEAT IsLAND was a mess that only Tenten did). I can only dream, it's been 5 years...
  13. JRD

    I would have chosen Balloon, Smile, or Tyrannosaurus. Those were the best bops on the album to make a MV to.
  14. The day after I posted the for the first time since my regular hiatus, I GOT FUCKING FIRED the next day. HR suspended me for a month, then last week I had to sign my termination papers. Someone apparently said I orchestrated smoke breaks with people to go get high(I don't even smoke weed) and they didn't even drug test me. Luckily I found 2 job offers yesterday thanks to my 10 years of working Business Management and everyone hates that bitch that got me fired.

      Sorry to hear that. Good luck with your future opportunities and hopefully the person to blame gets a nice serving of karma for their bullshit.

      Holy crap that's fucked. Glad that things are already moving. Hopefully it's one of those situations that works out better in the end.

  15. only on FB can I get chastised for caring more about coronavirus than Kobe Bryant's death. I get all the contributions he had made and all the liveshe has affected, but only in America can celebrity death outweigh something that can turn into an epidemic.

    1. colorful人生

      colorful人生

      having facebook, fertile ground for that zero-sum/"false dilemma" mentality, is the first mistake in that sentence, lol (though that's clearly reflected by the people, not so much the platform.) the deaths of those helicopter occupants was tragic, but people have to understand that the nCoV situation has exponentially higher priority for those dealing with it. 

       

      dunno, stupid gonna stupid.

       

      *also forgot to mention that I realize the need for FB, for like work or extended family where it's the SNS of choice. i'm glad I can just get away w/ LinkedIn and GitHub when it comes to my actual identity... for now...

      coronavirus won't be an epidemic. you're no more at risk than from the common flu. spreading panic only helps US spread propaganda against china & racism against chinese people

      I like how people would rather you fake-cared about some celebrity's death (sorry, I never heard of him until now and that's the truth) than actually express your real feelings about a real issue that's affecting people on a global scale. USA is gonna USA. 

  16. JRD back from my usual hiatus(unless you follow me on insta and know I'm back into raving again; and there's literally no more PLUR left in the scene. Breaks my old ass heart). Update me on the terrible shit I like and the good shit that I like. I haven't been following VK for at least 5-6 months now(save for FULL EFFECT'; you guys know I stan Hisato so hard), so all your rares were safe for then. Also Richardland had bops and you can't deny that Tyrannosaurus, Smile, and Ballon were bops. They're gonna rule the no one knows stage at EDC soon.

      Skimed it; had a few chuckles. I have to go back and read the whole thing hahaha

      Haha, happens.

       

      But we also grow older.

       

       

      I'm in my 30ties now, and last time when I went to Tokyo I only went to a few VK gigs. all others were other kind of music or just drinking with band people (non visual kei band people).

  17. Pyschtiger READ YOU MESSAGES WHORE.

  18. When someone you met here over ten years ago moves to your city and now we get to hang out more ❤️

  19. I guess my hiatus is over again. It was short this time around.

  20. It felt so good deleting a negative person off of every social media. 15 years of friendship down the drain, but I don't fucking care. I hope he can get all the help he can, if he wishes me failure. I still have a job and I'm not living under unemployment I help him get. So fuck you, dead beat bitch with no irl friends now. Leech, scumbag, etc.

      Fuck them leeches. Cutting out people who bring you down, no matter the history, is just sometimes necessary. I'm happy you could do it! ♡

  21. BICTH finally they offcially released Dream Rush!!! It's my favorite song of theirs!! It was a tokuten instore purchase only on one day at like an Edison 5 years ago! Now I can hear the recorded version! Fuck yes!
  22. Had to show MEGURU my collection for Panic Day. All photosets, shit ton of chekis, whole discography including rare VHS, posters, flyers, postcards, e.t.c. I hope it made him happy!

      maan, that's so cool!

      I really wish he would come back someday

  23. 829の日おめでとう!Today is the day we celebrate the only band that made me cry like a bitch when the announced their indefinite hiatus. 16 years ago I discovered an up and coming band; I've been a stan since. PANIC☆ch/パニックちゃんねる. Yes, as with most us パニっ娘 and パニ男, we can say most of their "gya" were Kao fans of Tara, Tsubasa, and Takumi, and they can go die in a fire for making MEGURU cry before their first hiatus.

  24. I never liked Slipknot until Psychosocial. Their music changed drasatically. Still don't really like corey's clean vocals, but I enjoyed their previous album.

      Also doesn't help that his melodies are dull (at least from their latest effort.)

      lol I liked Solway Filth though D:

    3. ghost

      ghost

      Solway Firth was good! But tracks like "nero forte", "critical darling", and "orphan" had choruses that left me underwhelmed. They've done better in the past (like with psychosocial, duality, or even devil in i)
