  1. タイムスリップしたみたいに / It’s like I’ve gone back in time A student doing physical training On the high school field right behind my house The way he was running Reminded me of you The dream we had back then, Are you even a little closer to achieving it? The barriers in the way are higher than we thought Are you struggling to get over them like I am? You’re out there somewhere too Surely you’re out there somewhere I wonder if you’re continuing to fight, hiding your feelings of bitterness In that case, I In that case, I definitely can’t give up One day, we’ll laugh together again Because I want to see you It’s like I’ve gone back in time I look at the changing landscape of our town with a sidelong glance Today as well, our lives are getting a little shorter Our hearts are burning up with passion And we’re heading towards that distant future You’re out there somewhere too Surely you’re out there somewhere I wonder if you’re continuing to fight, hiding your feelings of bitterness In that case, I In that case, I definitely can’t give up One day, we’ll laugh together again Because I want to see you It’s like I’ve gone back in time We’re talking about things like our dreams and ideals, And together, we’re growing up a bit We look down at our knees like we did in the past* It’s like I’ve gone back in time We’re talking about things like love and hope And it seems like we’ll keep doing our best tomorrow as well We’ll both keep doing our best tomorrow, right? Notes: * This line is probably wrong. I thought it might be an expression or something, but the only thing that comes up when I google it is this song, so I just wrote my best guess... タイムスリップしたみたいに / TAIMUSURIPPU shita mitai ni Ie no maura ni aru Koukou no undoujou de Taiiku shite iru Hitori no seito Hashiru kuse ga Kimi ni nite ita Egaite ita Yume arekara Sukoshi demo Chikazuketa kai?

  4. Not my interview, I just translated from here: http://2youmag.com/2youmag_old/interview/2014/no40/noa.html My Japanese sucks, so I marked anything that might be way off with a *. -- A band that has performed at festivals like FUJI ROCK, COMIN’ KOBE, SSMC and embarked on large-scale tours, Osaka’s NOA is certainly a young, first-rate band that has shown growth and one that THE NINTH APOLLO can be proud of, and now they’ve released a four-track single that could be called their defining work “3days of April / Sekai no owari to yoake mae”. This is their first release in a year, and it clearly presents the two pillars of the band: the melodic punk with English lyrics from Nishiura Shunsuke and Japanese rock from Tsumoto Aki, which coexist in this work. We hope you can appreciate this release; four songs packed with the essence of the current NOA. Q: This is your first release in a year, what were you up to during that time? Aki: We were playing a lot of concerts. The year went by in the blink of an eye. Nishiura: Before we noticed, 2013 was over. (laughs) Q: Your previous release “picture diary” was your first to feature Japanese lyrics. What were the reactions to that like? Aki: I think it went over pretty well. I was a little nervous about that though. (laughs) Nishiura: It was a spontaneous decision to start using Japanese lyrics. Aki just said that he wanted to try singing in Japanese. I think Aki has given NOA an even greater range of possibilities by doing that. Q: So NOA has two pillars now, Aki-kun singing in Japanese and Nishiura-kun singing in English? Aki: It’s not something we were aiming for, this is more a result of us each just making music we like. We want to do different things. But I’m starting to think that that’s a good thing. We don’t want to be a band that people get tired of listening to, so we’re not going to fight the urge to do different things. Q: So, is it safe to say that instead of a starting the band with a clear genre or theme in mind, NOA was formed by the members bringing together the types of music they liked? Aki: We did start this band with a plan, but it was never really like “Let’s do this kind of music”. Nishiura: Even now, I don’t think we’ve really decided on one particular genre. Q: Of course. When did you start working on this new single? Nishiura: Sometime around last summer. Aki: Right after we finished our “picture diary” tour, we started thinking about the next move. We’d decided that we were going to make a single next, but since we were doing too many lives we didn’t really get a chance to work on it until the tour was over. Q: On this single you can really see the different colours of the band - the melodic punk side and the guitar rock side - coexisting. Aki: Yes, I guess it came out that way. Nishiura: Yes, but we didn’t really have a concept in mind. It feels more like Aki and I both just did what we wanted and it came out this way. Q: Aki-kun and Nishiura-kun’s songs clearly have a different colour, but the way that NOA can contain both of them is interesting, isn’t it? Aki: I’m happy you feel that way. I started wanting to try to make music in Japanese, so this single is half Japanese, but I think it really reflects the current NOA well. Q: So, how do you approach each other’s music? Aki: How do we…? Nishiura: We don’t really interfere with each other’s work. I guess you could say that we respect the creator’s intention. Aki: Yeah, we don’t interfere with each other. Nishiura: Aki’s songs are Aki’s songs. It’s the same with mine. Aki: Regardless of whose song we use, if the three of us play it, it becomes NOA. Q; So maybe it’s like the way The Beatles worked? Like how even if each member would bring in songs that were completely different, they would bring them into existence together? Aki: That, that’s cool, isn’t it? (laughs) From now on, we’re going to describe ourselves like that. (laughs) Q: In your mind, what kind of band is NOA? Aki: We’re by no means a cheerful band, we’re not really a band will get people in high spirits or make them smile, but I want NOA to be a band that respects the individual feelings of people who listen to our music, and one that helps people see things in a deeper light.* Q: So, let’s come back to this again, what kind of work is this single to you? Aki: Since I think it’s natural to think that our most recent work is the best, naturally, this new single is our best yet. Nishiura: Personally, I think that this work is an important foothold for our next step. I think it’s easy to see where the band is headed by listening to it. Q: Does the band have a specific outlook? Aki: I can’t really pinpoint one. We’ll do what we like to do, and then I want a variety of other people to give us their impressions.* Nishiura: NOA has two pillars, but I think it’s when those two pillars finally meet somewhere that we’ll really be able to see where we’re headed. Q: I really feel that you can see your individual colours clearly in this work. I’m excited to see how those two colours will mix. Nishiura: Since they’re so clearly divided on this single, we’re also excited to see how we can bring them together. Q: Lastly, please leave a message for your listeners. Yuu: I want people to listen to this single during their everyday lives. It’s not really for special times, so if people listen to it during their daily routine I’d be happy.* Nishiura: There are different ways of listening to it depending on the person, so I’d be really happy if a lot of different people listened to it. Aki: I don't think there's any point in saying “Listen to it this way!”, I’d be happy if everyone listened to it freely. Please give it a try. -- 3days of April 世界の終わりと夜明け前 / Sekai no owari to yoake mae http://www.indiesmusic.com/musicvideo/video.asp?id=12295

  8. Did half of this a long time ago, and I finally got around to finishing it. It probably has some mistakes, but I think the gist of what he's saying is there. Our Internal War* Music and Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei The clothes that I’m wearing are things that were made by someone else The thoughts that I’m struck with are ideas that someone else has had before I turn all the originality I can summon up into a weapon And face my invisible enemies Over and over, I brandish it in front of them How long will this internal war continue? What the hell will it take to mould my vague existence into shape? Ah, before I know it I’ll be gone** When I can’t grab hold of anything like this, I wonder who exactly I want to become The road that I should set my sights on is a path that was made by someone else Even the wall that I’m fighting against is a wall that someone else has already passed over before me Even the best answer I’ve ever come up with – one that I’ve searched for with all my might Was met with comments like “Isn’t that idea played out?” from people I don’t know*** So, what should I do? How long will this internal war continue? What the hell will it take to mould my vague existence into shape? Ah, before I know it I’ll be gone When I can’t grab hold of anything like this, I wonder who exactly I want to become How long will this internal war continue? What the hell will it take to mould my vague existence into shape? Ah, before I know it I’ll be gone But I’m me, this is how I am, And I can't become someone else Let’s continue our internal war like this They might not be enough to dazzle anyone else**** But I hope we can find our answers someday I’ve gotta head out on the 8 o’clock train I’ve gotta head out on the 8 o’clock train Notes: *as in a war between a person and his/her self **I'm assuming this means he’ll be dead and out of time ***I'm really not sure about this line ****Or this 僕らの自分戦争 / Bokura no jibun sensou Boku ga mi ni tsukeru MONO wa dareka ga tsukutta tsukuriMONO Boku ga omoitsuku KOTO mo dareka ga saki ni yatta KOTO Hineridaseru kagiri no ORIGINARITI o buki ni shite Mienai teki ni mukai Nandomo sore o furikazashita Bokura no jibun sensou Itsumade tsuzuku no?

  9. I'm kinda a regular around here. Some of you at least know me on here No I'm not Japanese and I'm not exactly VK, but my music is influenced by it. Why the weird headline? I'll be straight up with you, I'm a little burned out. I need a vacation. And I'm tired of sending out the same old "Vitne releases new single! blah blah blah" headline. Anyway, December 10th I released my new single (plus the instrumental), a wintery wonderland rock ballad with beautiful artwork hand-drawn by Korean artist IF LEE. Its called "Winter Love Song" - I'm very proud of it. Download it free, or pay-what-you-want (honor system) here: http://musicshop.vitne.net - its also on iTunes and all that. Arigatou, thanks everyone ( )

    WRITE-UP: Matenrou Opera returns with an album that tastes like a concept album, yet leaves the over-all decision on whether it is or isn`t up to your interpretation. The term Avalon refers to a place in so-called Arthurian legend, where both the Excalibur was forged, and legendary knights as well as King Arthur himself was buried. Some speculate it to be an island off the coast of Scotland and Wales. The album is laden with sounds reminiscent of Medieval times, and song titles refer to heaven or paradise, which Avalon is a gateway to; that is where the concept album feel plays in, yet the songs actually tell varied tales which can not always be played in to the album`s title, and the inclusion of the previous single A-Side Orb further leads us astray. Concept album or not, this album is definitely not a collection of different tracks or hits thrown together. It plays more like a film cut into different parts, telling different stories, but almost always fitting a certain feel, and that is the experience you get from this album. It has a common title, but the experience is a unique one. The `Opera` touch of the delivery along with a unique vocalist matched with a hard band delivers a one-of-a-kind experience, and I think that is really what you are getting from this album. It`s not another rock album, not another VK album, it is something of its own, and you need to sample the singles from the album to see if you will enjoy this experience. One key thing to keep in consideration is if you like the vocalist and delivery, as this is a comon point of divergence amongst opinion. To me, this more of a sit-down and listen album rather than something you can throw on, although tracks like Orb, 隣に座る太陽 and クロスカウンターを狙え are the tracks I would think you are likely to throw on as stand-alone listens. The album doesn`t use hooks or catches as much as you would expect from a modern album, if you want a comparison, I would say it is more like Versailles from a different era. Track Count: 12 Listens: 15-20 Production Quality: Great sound, yet my personal preference is for a wider sound stage and more clarity in individual intruments, esp. more of the guitars.Though they seem to specifically like putting emphasis on the vocals. Overall Rating: Great album, defined, unique experience, listening on the I will skip some tracks, but if I want to let it play out there are no skip-inducing tracks. Worth the Purchase? For me, this is definitely worth the purchase. Although it is not an album that will get the most rotation. It is something I will keep in my library and bring out on occasion.
  11. WRITE-UP: Fear and Loathing`s third, and personally easiest to get into album. While heavily retaining their distinct approach to song-writing, the band has created an album less tied to a genres feel, and more to a three-dimensional story told in vibrant color and many tempos as well as moods. The tracks all feel like stand-alone adventures told sonically, with rock, layered with heavy electronics, harsh vocals and modulated soft, tender and youthful vocals interlacing. To get a feel for the album you can watch the PV`s, and listen to the songs released before-hand, yet that would only be a portion of the experience that the album presents to you. Each track is different, each one rides an emotional and musical roller-coaster, and each can go either way terms of whether you like it or not. Numerous listens really changed my perspective of the album. At first some of the tracks attached to me, but others went right through me. After listening and listening, as well as going on a day of bike riding with the album on repeat, each track begin to take a hold on me in its own different way. Tracks that instantly clicked: Are You Ready to Blast Off? / Rave-up Tonight Interlude Virtue and Vice Flutter of Cherry Blossoms Tracks that had to grow on me: Swing It!! Thunderclap Nail the Shit Down Rain Inside Your Eyes Counterattack by the Sesame Sized Bodies Track that eventually became my favorite: Stay as Who You Are So I started with a couple I instantly liked, then I slowly grew fond of others, and eventually found my favorite amongst a track I had previously not completely clicked with. One of the beautiful things about the song style, is that there are so many parts to a song, so many changes, different moods, sounds, and catches laden within what can be longer tracks, where your favorite part is three minutes in, and in the process of waiting for it, discover new things you like just as much or possibly more. Listen after listen the album rose in my preference, and it soon became my favorite release by the band, as I found many things that connected with me, and appreciated the more overt nature of the emotion in this release, as opposed to their previous works. Track Count: 11 (Two short instrumentals, and 9 full tracks ranging from standard to longer length, yet the album blows by fast for me). Listens: 30-50 Production Quality: Great production, though my personal preference would be for an album with this range of instrumentation and tonality to have a bigger, clearer sound. Overall Rating: Worth the Purchase? If you enjoy the sound of Rave-up Tonight, and Virtue and Vice, I would say this will definitely not leave you with post-purchase regret. An experience all its own that shouldn`t be missed if you like the band`s style.
  12. Abridged version of a very interesting article by Esquire. I posted the short version to make an easier digest, but please read the whole thing: http://www.esquire.com/blogs/culture/gene-simmons-future-of-rock Please share your thoughts!
  13. I am a lazy writer so I'd rather copy everything what aramajapan said: and a "lead PV": Sounds solid.

    WRITE-UP: The immensely popular Rock Band UVERworld returns with the album that I personally enjoy most out of their catalog to date. The tracks flow through many different musical styles and feelings, while staying anchored to the UVERworld signature product. What to expect most is lots of attitude (something I look for) and a rock album that you can pretty much bounce along to as if it were full of `hip-hop jams`except with heavy riffs, great drums, and a soaring sax to go along with the vocalists stand-up-and-shout microphone persona. I recommend this to any VK or Indie fans who haven`t already checked it out due to the band not fitting into their preferred genres. If you enjoy rock, musical creativity and just all around great production, give it a try. The lyrics, vocal ability and instrumentation all deliver. How quickly the album picks up on you may differ. Even for me as a fan, there were tracks that instantly clicked, and others which I had to give a few spins in order to get into and really feel. But after all the plays I eventually grew fond of listening to each and every track. Biggest Attention Grabbers: The singles including Fight For Liberty, Wizard Club and Nano Second, as well as the Underworld cover `Born Slippy` an underground classic from England, featured in the `cult-hit` Trainspotting, and referenced in the audio/music-phile Tomoki Kyoda`s anime Eureka Seven AO. Sleeper Tracks: 別世界 (betsusekai, lit. Seperate World, interpreted as Another World in common speech), and ENOUGH-1. Betsusekai would theoretically be an answer to anyone doubting that UVERworld could make a track like Born Slippy on their own. They step it up musically, and put together a jazz-rock structured jam that really takes me on an instrumental journey. ENOUGH-1 has a laid back Japanese Yankee kind of attitude to it, I imagine it as the perfect tune for a group to roll out to in the sunset as they hit the town for something wild. The lyrics, music and attitude grew on me with each listen and it became one of my go-to tracks when I slip my headphones on. Track Count: 14 (4 previously released, 3 of which are slightly modified for the album) Listens: 30-40 Production Quality: Amazing recording, mixing, timbre and overall feel. CD Print Quality: No perceptible flaws, perfect track synch, no artefacts. Overall Rating: They seem to have pulled off the exact feel and quality they were going for, I enjoy the album immensely, and in the right mood I don`t skip a single track.
  15. 3 months ago I recorded my first vocal cover and for today I felt like revealing it Check out my soundcloud in case I've added more songs xD *Note: I don't own professional recording equipments.

From all ~30 (?) samples, I choose this one for the best Feedback is always welcome, but don't be too harsh on me XD

  18. Let's do a battle with Ayabie VS AYABIE! I think this is a really interesting band battle www Which band do you prefer the most? The old Ayabie or the newer one? Also... why?! Members are all the same, except the change in vocals. Ayabie (彩冷える) [2010] AYABIE [2011+] For me I'd choose the old Ayabie because I just love Aoi's voice. And it also sounded more Oshare kei-like then the newer one.

    Let's do a poll for MEJIBRAY's best MV of 2013! Because decadance was their last release for this year, I'm kinda curious about everyone's opinions! Which MEJIBRAY music video is the best of 2013? Make your choice! If possible please write why you have choosen for that MV. アヴァロン (Avalon) DIE KUSSE メサイア (Messiah) アプリオリ (A Priori) 醜詠 (Shuuei) DECADANCE - Counting Goats ... if I can't be yours - *click* My own opinion: I actually liked the MV Avalon the most. I really liked the effects in the music video and the colour contrast they used. I felt everyone of MEJIBRAY had a good and clear screentime. On a second place, I'd put Decadance MV because the song itselfs is totally amazing. At the end seeing Meto and Tsuzuku dancing *lol* was a precious moment to see.

    so far from my (narrow) perspective i've never managed to find an actually solid korean rock-formation. korea appeared only as the embassedor of high-quality Pop and maybe a few dreamy acoustic-indie things (basing this observation mainly on the last 2-3 years of youtubes eatyourkimchi-indie-playlist), just as japan's pop-landscape mainly seems to focus on akb48-like bubblegum standard-boxset tracks and never quite accomplish the hights of BigBang, SHINee and the likes, whilst at the same time having a quite mentionable quirky indie-rock and hardcore/metal scene (maybe that view is distorted because of CAT5+Zess+Jigsaw.... constant output of such...) this here is actually the first time i saw a korean rockband and found it to be really solid, very arctic monkeys - ish. very catchy and the vocalist has a nice raspy voice. (also, dem guitar-gals boots *thumbsup) probably going to look for that album they also seem to be damn fine live, a couple of days they had a great pro-shot live-concert up on youtube, deleted it unfortunately already... EDIT: it is uploaded again! btw. they are quite the good looking bunch actually...
  23. Okay, let's do a review about けけ(ヶ´∀`)'s DARUMAROMAN single! I'd love to hear your opinion! In short: - DARUMAROMAN This is my favorite song of the whole single. It's a happy-cheerfully song. Also, if you haven't seen his dance cheography yet, you gotta check that out! It's really a cute dance which you can easily learn as well! But anyways, this song is the best! It's really a creative but poppish-like song. I think it's really Keke-alike song...! it kinda shows his character / how a cheerful person he is. - MADa☆YADa This song is sweet, like a lullaby for me if I can't sleep. It's softer than the DARUMAROMAN song actually, but I like it. - Hello, Worker This song is also some softer song like MADa☆YADa, but has more some kind of up-beat. I think this song is also pretty, you can hear his softer voice also Overall, it's a good single, all 3 songs are really enjoyable to listen. If you haven't tried this single yet, I really recommend you to listen!

    Let's make a review out of this MEJIBRAY mini-album release: MESSIAH.bat To be honest, I was really looking forward to this release and from the preview sample it looked kinda good + their looks are awesome...! ....so I put my hopes up until it was released. At first listen to this mini-album, I was kinda impressed but after a few listens I recognized some songs from their previous releases/they've used some instrumentals from what they had released before. I think they've kinda overworked themselfs like all their ideas are gone. But I'll review each song also... Messiah.bat The intro starts with some Tsuzuku grows afterwards they let MiA do the same guitar riff from their previous release ''KILLING ME'', it sounds cool but kinda a no-no for repeating in a new song. The chorus is really catchy, totally love it! Also the up-beats are nice, it keeps you in the song. Overall it's a great song to listen to. Falling ''Maria'' The intro starts again with some previous release melody, what I can get out of it is: APOCALYPSE & THINKER. Hmmm... I don't think there's actually anything new to this song, but it's good. 【worms】 I hate to say this, but the intro is like DEVIL ON THE BED by The GazettE & Diaura - Terrors, but with electro elements in it. I think this is the only song I really dislike on their new mini-album. Great to see they try some electro elements again, but I think their darker music like their 1st mini-album / Sadisgate / Sabato / KILLING me are suiting them much better. Just saying~ - 枷と知能 -それってとても人間らしいって神様は笑ってるの- Another electro elemento song, but I approve this one, it's not bad. It reminds me of their other song Mechanical Beauty, from some of those vocal parts. www Also the lyrics lol, what I can get what Tsuzuku singing, the song is about ''fucking''? lol ... ''You say I'm fucking to, fucking you over''♪ (or something close to that xD) I think they didn't need to add any electro elements, since it's already good in the parts without them. But overall, cool song. - insomnia Finally some darker song, the intro starts with a dark sounding piano.... sweet! The drums are really sweet here, same kind of drum beats used in Akercock (YEAH www) I also love the bass in this song that goes great along with the guitar. Just an amazing song! Actually this kind/type of songs should be used in this whole mini-album in my opinion. I think this was clearly the best song out this mini-album. All the other songs seems kinda weaker. Let's hope they'll do better next time with brand new ideas, also like I said before... I really think they are overworked. They've released so much in short time... they need time to get fresh ideas.
  25. Let's also do a review about Keke's 2nd single release ''Cosmike Alice Wonderland'' Those who're able to listen to this, please make a review! - コズミケアリスワンダラン This song is more a rock/pop song, compared to his first single. I guess this shows some more of his other talent. It's really a good oshare kei song, plus the PV is really cool. Fooooooood, everywhereeeeeee~ it makes me hungry. This is his first PV that looks really good made, sadly he didn't include this in his single ;< - スウィイトポイズンファクトリィ Hmmm.. about this song, it gives me some Halloween vibe actually, reminds me a bit of Halloween Junky Orchestra but it's more.. how should I put it... some crazy song? lol Somewhere at the end of the song he sings in some autotune/vocaloid-voice, usually I dislike those voices but this is pretty okay. A very cool song. - ワンダランクロウラア I think this song is my favorite song. It's really a rockish song-only, it really feels like he's back in a VK-band again, I can even imagine a music video from this song. So... this song is different from the 2 songs above. That's really a good thing, 'cause this track is really outstanding!!
