his solo project (rock bouquet) only had a couple of lives in Fukuoka and released 1 live limited CD with 4 instrumentals and no vocals lol. and i think it's no longer a thing afaik.. that session i was talking about was in tokyo.
 
and yes planet story is one of my alltime favorites. all 5 tracks are phenomenal for me! i love milia so much haha (*_*)

i actually talked to Age (milia's vocalist) 2 weeks ago the night he played in a session called Moyashi. he said that planet story was a real challenge for him cos it was different from everything he had done before but he's happy that fans liked it so much (i told him i still listen to it a lot and i fucking love it). i'm not sure if he'll be back in a regular band though; even if that happens it probably won't be the same kind of music anymore.

funnily enough, i used to think the limitation was with LEZARD's composers cos the great majority of lime-era songs followed the same percussive style that matched the high-pitched chest voice, but sora basically demonstrated that lime was the problem. who would have thought... ._.
 
i'm not bashing lime cos he's obv technically very gifted. i was a fan of early LEZARD and i still have fond memories of their songs. but imo sora stretched LEZARD's repertoire to places where they could never have gone with lime.

kizu-stans are out to get you now, haha
 
侍アバンギャルド has me agreeing w/ you on this one. LEZARD has def. started to reach their full potential w/ Sora. The band isn't as "one-note" as they used to be w/ Lime...which brings us to Kizu.
 
IMO Kizu is exhibiting the same problem old-LEZARD had, just w/ nu-DeG flare. I think when everyone starts to shake off the nostalgia goggles, disinterest is going to set in. Though, I was never interested in "that" style band, so others see it differently.
 
It's all personal preference I guess. LEZARD's electro-kei doesn't appeal to everybody, as well.

^addendum: actually i talked to shun (astel's vocalist) a lot more about vistlip than i do with hikarito haha. shun's look (even during their 1-day revival live) is like... as tomo as you would ever get 
 

rito is the adorablest!!!

Kento spent 6 hours at the post office shipping the axkey stuff 3 days ago so you can expect them soon

Bleh i came here thinking it was PRECIOUS from ViViD

In regards to the "nobody seems to care about non staff reviews" comments, it's been my observation that members simply respond to whatever compels them to do so - and that's pretty arbitrary. It has nothing to do with it being staff or not. However, I will note that ORZ, as a group, usually makes it our goal to post content that we believe would be of interest to the community based off of literally years of experience/trial & error -  and even with a concerted effort like that, we're not always accurate. Also, threads having 0 responses can't always be interpreted as no one being interested - often times people might feel it sufficient to just like/react to a post instead of elaborating on their thoughts. And then some people simply like to read and move on. You also have to take thread views into account, as every topic on the first page of the regular review forum (except for 1) exceeds 100 views - and considering our active userbase, that's hardly trivial! Not to mention all of the guests and lurkers we have! So rest assured that there is interest, even if it's not always immediately visible! 

thank you!!! <333333333

Thank you CAT!! <333

i'm really not sure - there's a small chance i guess since the members are super close and they're on good terms as far as i can tell. yuno is the only one so far who hasn't affirmed that he won't be quitting music (i talk to him the most but he's also the most private of them). and yes i really love haruka's voice but he actually fucks up a lot at lives LOL (actually the whole band does, but they're kind of adorable cos of that haha). haruka has said he'll continue singing though, although he also mentioned something about wanting to start from scratch again. last week he messaged me the lyrics of Fate cos it's not an officially 'released' song but he knows i fucking love that song and i listen to it a lot T_T what a sweetheart haha

they are T_T sadly they have a couple of songs that they won't get to record before they disband.

"i'm at Yomogi udon. i remember being here 2 years ago. as always the dashi here keeps me warm, but lots of things change with time. how time flies... it's a little late but happy new year"

he's so sexy and adorable at the same time.. how????

i can't wait for his new band T_T <3333

who's dir en grey?
