always find it weird when people insist this "era" of vk is deprived of talent, every era of vk up to now has been filled with talentless hacks, you just don't remember them because they were so unworthy of recollection that your brain basically filtered them out. there was no "golden era" where every band was good, you just don't have an eidetic memory that allows you to vividly recall hundreds of singles by mediocre knockoff bands you listened to in 2010

listening to doginthePWO and having a weirdly specific nostalgic flashback to a time i was sitting in the park in the city centre in the August sun with my weeb friends, we were all arguing about death note ships. we had my oshare folder playing on shuffle on a portable speaker. we're all wearing studded rainbow belts and have awkwardly gelled spiked hair in some kind of budget-vk/scene kid combo. one kid literally just wore his L cosplay and took his fucking shoes off outdoors in a public park to complete the look. the same kid brought his copy of the first volume of black butler (which had JUST come out in english) and we all huddled round and read it over his shoulder lmao, with A9 and paradeis playing in the background like it was the most normal shit ever. i really miss those times ;-;

i was planning to do a tape rip a day for a while but that'll have to be put on hold as i've just become technically homeless (i'm not living on the street, but i have no permanent place of residence, i'm couch-surfing). my tape collection is safe in storage so the uploads will resume once i'm back on my feet!

tried to rip a misa tape to replace the rip floating around that sounds like it was recorded underwater and i was hoping to make a clearer one where you can actually make out what the fuck he's saying... turns out he either just recorded it like that, or in a million-to-one shot, i own the exact same copy that the original rip was made from

it's only as i recently turned 24 that i'm coming to terms with the fact mejibray were never actually good and i just liked them because they were hot
-
my dad is a huge fan of classic rock and metal so i showed him some of the formative vk bands like kamaitachi, color, aion etc and he didn't like any of em :< should have put maria cross on instead

please help, i think my son is addicted to rarez. he's stopped caring about anything else. he hasn't showered in weeks, he just sits in that room looking at zenmarket all day. he punches holes in the wall whenever a sniper bid denies him a live-distributed demo tape from a show attended by 10 people at some venue that closed its doors in 2001. at first i was so proud because i thought he was taking up learning french, but as it turns out he was just naming old japanese goth twink boy-bands? what do i do?
-
alright folks, in your personal opinion what is the WORST vk release you've ever heard

@patientZERO I hate this song with every fibre of my being. I remember seeing those guys in old Shoxx and Cure's around 2009 and I vividly remember how stupid I thought they looked lol

@patientZERO this really is the kind of tryhard veekay edginess that only good bands can get away with lmao

confession: every time i see a page on lastfm where a vk band shares a page with other bands, i rearrange the bio so the vk band comes first

wellll, im probably not the best to take on the topic as I've been here all of two months and I, myself been catching up on 10-or-so years of vk BUT that said, here goes nothing, in no particular order:
- DIMLIM lost two members (gt. and bass), and the world held its breath for a while, but they've just announced an album for December (as a trio) so we can all rest easy for now
- nokubura's future is still unsure, as right after the single supposedly dissing the two lost members, their new guitarist was caught with marijuana ~karma is a bitch~
- Despa's Hizumi is back doing some electro vk and everyone and their mother is salty about it
- Yoshiki continues to be an asshole, hardly a news at this point, he made a 10mln yen donation to Kyoto Animation, which is all well and good if he didn't milk it for publicity to the last drop; he also met the UK royal family, unsure if it's related
- Yumeleep lost a drummer and I'm not entirely sure which side is the general public on, since there was shade thrown from both sides, as far as I know, related to internal bullying (I'm not really a fan so dunno)
- there's a new band around - MOTHER - and that wouldn't be anything noteworthy if it wasn't for their, let's say unique, promo campaign, check out their thread XD
- also not strictly vk, but there are some additions to forum rules so also check that out I guess
that's about for the stuff I cared to remember from the past 2mo ^^;

i’d probably quit using it too, but i’m a big fan of being able to track things and keep stats for them. it’s v satisfying. maybe if someone made something similar to last.fm that did things better. but it seems like people are more interested in tracking what shows/movies they watch than music. dont get me wrong, i use sites for that kinda thing too. it’s just cool to be able to look at my listening history too.
