If World of Mercy ended up on TiW – based on setlist – it would have potentially ended up closing out the album. That would have been an absolute travesty as far as I’m concerned. 
 
I’m over being upset about the mix for TiW. DEG albums have sounded far worse than this, and in some ways it does sound like it’s a raw live recording. Only thing that bothers me is Toshiya gets buried and, uh, Keigaku no Yoku and Zetsuentai should have been placed farther away from each other. 
 
In hindsight it’s tighter and more focused than DSS, remastered Uroboros, and Arche. Like I’m getting old and I don’t have time for albums that push 70 minutes anymore, okay?!

They’ve got a show in Russia now too?

Retsu tweeted that he’s still studying English. I guess good for him for having the confidence to do that q&a in English, but he still shouldn’t have. 

Shintaro and Wataru seem like obvious choices. Because having sex with underage girls and strangling a woman until her neck bleeds are on a whole different shitty level from doing drugs and stealing money. 
 
And i think Yoshiki should be on this list for being a self-centered scam artist. 

Nah
 
this ain’t it

I love it. It almost makes me feel like I'm listening to real adult music that i'm not ashamed to tell people i like™ 
 
Infinitum grew on me as well. I think my first reaction was totally enamored, first of all because it's vk in the 2010's that actually shows some ambition to be more than just japanese nu metal or indie too rigid to actually be indie, but then I started thinking that well it isn't exactly ADORATIO; now almost an year later I'm able to accept it for what it is. ADORATIO is an impossible act to follow and that's just how it is. These are the most talented players in this particular game and with their music they almost manage to compensate for an entire genre that resists experimentation or unconformity literally until it has to be dragged kicking and screaming into the new decades.

A lot of Kisou’s lyrics read like they were coming from a 15 year old struggling with inexplicable boners and angry feelings. 

$50-$60 is still too much. I’m no expert on Japan’s economy, I just know I can’t afford it anymore. 

I’ve finally reached the point where I look at the prices of these live DVDs and wonder what the bands are smoking.

Ninshi reached out to Dimlim on twitter because they were trying to send an email, but apparently Dimlim’s email wasn’t working or accepting it. It was probably about this.

Christ, did the band sit down and discuss the concept of this album was going to be thumbing their collective noses at what few fans they have left? This shit is weird. 
 
Then again, it’s like these lyrics were written with the knowledge that MISC wouldn’t be well received, because we sure as fuck had no idea what we were in for thru most of 2019

Also make sure your band name is easy to Google. Don’t make it one letter or a super common word like “Sugar”

So I guess Taishi is in another band? 
 
 

I’m not going to stop, so feel free to put me on ignore. 

D'erlanger is by far more interesting imo. Buck-tick started to be a thing since 'Aku no hana', then with 'Kurutta taiyou' their classic sound embraced its true form. No wonder why the most part of their hits come from this albums, and not from their prior ones. Speaking of them, they are a wank of formulaic pop punk rock, same as other acts like Boowy. 

Way better than the original. Buck-Tick Sucks-Dick.
 
They’re one of those bands who I want to like, but then I get super bored and put on D’erlanger. 

Also noteworthy is that Ryuya and Taishi still follow Hiroshi on twitter. 
 
No one follows Retsu except Hiroshi

I’m not going to stop, so feel free to put me on ignore. 

Yomi is the biggest asshole in this. Like there’s already a Gianizm collection, dude. What are you doing?
