Saishu

Considering Taishi joined another band earlier this year, I’d say his health issue was that he was sick of Retsu

There was an interview with DEG (I think) during the Arche era where they talked about old recording practices, and Toshiya threw some shade and mentioned that Shinya used to program drum parts that he couldn’t replicate behind an actual drum kit. Granted this is way past the actual supposed beef, but I have to wonder if it still lingers. 

I’m listening to those bonus disc tracks with guest vocalists, and it’s hilarious because all these people actually pronounce the words. It really emphasizes just how much Kyo doesn’t enunciate or straight up ignores whole syllables. 
 
 

Can we all acknowledge that flying out to Japan to see Mejibray live in order to give a "credible" opinion is rather absurd?
 
"I don't like this band."
 
"But you didn't see them live."
 
"OF COURSE I DIDNT! THEY PLAY IN VENUES THOUSANDS OF MILES AWAY FROM WHERE I LIVE! WTF?!"

It’s probably just because it’s not actually anyone in DEG making this stuff.

Because he was mizerable. 

Jin’s voice is like all the popular VK vocalists’ worst aspects rolled into one. The boring part of Ruki with the nonsense of Kyo.

Does it? Seems like “oni” is just being used as a metaphor for a predator type. 

That sounded more like 2012 era 12012 to me

Anyone who thinks working 30 hours straight in the studio is okay should probably just work solo. No one should work under those conditions.

This just makes it worse. Why have him continue to perform?

So Mio has been asking to leave since January because of family issues. He’s been diagnosed with bipolar disorder with symptoms that continue to get worse and they’re still waiting until January 2021 to disband?
 
if I were Mio I’d tell Issei to go fuck himself.

FEEL YAAAA

I feel like there’s LESS melody in the new version.  Like the melodic guitar line from the part where Kyo sings “the night is cold and long” is barely even there in the new one. 

I had always thought Kyo's real name was Jeff Tanaka.

At least we’re past the point where every time a new song with a clean guitar and Kyo singing instead of AALSJKAKSJSKSKKSK-ing was “the band going back to their roots” 

Did I miss some huge conspiracy theory behind Kami's death? I've never heard anything different. 

They didn’t fuck up Fukai because it was played straight for the most part. All they did was use the alternate lyrics from like 2004. 
 
Kiri to Mayu 2012 is my favorite remake because all the parts are there, just rearranged in a way that’s more interesting than usual. 

As for Clever Sleazoid, I find Kyo to be the only real problem this time around. A lot of his parts sound rushed/crammed in with no real regard for the change in phrasing in the switch to Japanese. The “witherwither” part sounds less goofy, but why is it where it is?
