  1. Malice Mizer's song Brise. They're one of my absolute favorite Japanese bands but dear god why did they tarnish their name with this garbage? It's literally insufferable to me. Chie Chan's landscape by Zazen Boys. Another one of my absolute favorite band but this song would put me to sleep if it wasn't so annoying at the same time as managing to be boring.

    ^ Pretty much this for me too though I'm only really a fan of Dream Theatre's first album. I also love Rush myself.

    New video-game. Visual Souls. Carbon copy of Dark Souls except replace main character and all enemies with pretty effiminate Japanese men with garishly coloured hair and a penchant for leather and neo classical outfits.

    Implying I'm ignorant enough to spend money on music I won't enjoy? lol

    Because it's my personal preference. I'm not saying I won't listen to an album that's only 35 minutes but I myself prefer something at least twice as long.
  6. Atreides

    I'd prefer if an artist release an album that all the disc space is used up. Please no 35 minute "full length" albums.
  7. Wishing you a very special birthday! Absolute best of luck for you and Bio! :)

    Trying to keep it short and simple here. Most people who I consider mere acquaintances probably do not know I listen to Japanese music. People I consider friends and close friends all know, and I've gotten a handfull of them into Japanese music to the point where they seek it out on their own. I've never really had anyone be a dick to me about my tastes in music, besides my best friend's older brother who when we were younger was a real musical snob (considers Led Zepplin/Pink Floyd the end all of music) and he was a downright asshole to us about it. However as the years have gone on, even he listens to a bit of Japanese music now himself. (Stuff like Yoshida brothers etc.). I don't hide my musical tastes from those I consider a friend, but I don't tell those I consider associates anything about my musical taste (or much else about me really).

    Batsu was a cancerous horrible place, but it was a bastion of visual kei.

    I'm still in it for the "cute japanese boyz" hahaha.

    Well, I got into VK in like 99. I'd say the 09 boom was definitely a high point because you could find almost anything on a multitude of sites though granted the quality wasn't as good as it is today. (128bitrate all over). It was a fun ride, and the ride keeps going. WE are here and we like visual kei. As long as the core group remains it shall never die in America. It's our job to bring it to those who are interested, and that doesn't just go for visual kei but Japanese music in general. Even otonomai/yorukaze/younmai is gone now, besides shitty blogs holding the last remnants of years gone by, this is the core site. #RideOrDieTogether
  13. Best news of 2016 to be honest.

    You'll catch me around, being annoying
  15. Just been listening to the majority of AION's music after like 12 ish years. Why did I stop listening to them?

  16. Atreides

    Only person I could've thought was Inejiro Asanuma but nope. I'm interested to know also.

    I know this post is quite old, but I'm glad to see that you came to enjoy the album more. Something about is just really raw and primal and I enjoy just about every song off the album. I'll admit Oshima is no Shinichi but he's a damn good pick for the band, I got an instant hardon when I found out it was him. I couldn't see them picking anyone else honestly. Now I can't for their next album, and let's hope they do another full round!

    Current Japanese pop

    When you like music as a whole from all across the world but it's 'Japanese music', 'Korean music' 'Swedish music' etc. to your friends. Why bother trying?

    Post any Japanese music video in this thread. I don't think this has actually been done as most of General focuses on specific genres of Japanese music. Post anything and everything you like, nothing is limited! Discover some cool shit and show others your jams! ENJOY^^
  21. After a few months hiatus, I'm back. Work kicked my ass good but now it's time to relax and jam out.:parapls:

  23. I've been ill for the last week or so, had an ear infection as previously mentioned in a status update and came down with the flu and a bad fever..  Starting to feel better, so I'll probably be around in the next week or so. ^^

  24. Wow, I've had an ear infection and my headphones randomly broke today. It's like a higher power is telling me to stop listening to music.

      Whoo, I think it's time to move onto wireless if you're gonna spend $100 haha.

       

      I had the plug break off from the rest of the cord before lol

      Couldn't tell you how many times I've had ear whiplash from forgetting the wire was still plugged into the PC haha.

      ^ Indeed, I was thinking about getting wireless myself. Still got the warranty on this though so I'll probably replace them and then save up and get some different ones.  The ear is a different story though, I wish I could get a replacement on that.
