Here we go with the translation of one of the best songs by The Birthday! Hope that you like it! Kanji: 電話探した あの娘に聞かなくちゃ 俺さ 今どこ？ 壊れそうな夜 ロータリーに倒れてた 血と鉄混じった どこか少し懐かしい味 アスファルトから ロンドン・パンク聞こえてた 立ちたくなかった どうにでもなればいいって 涙がこぼれそう でラブコール あの娘にラブコール キツネとモグラ キスしてる 横目で見る 純粋って何？ 誰か俺に教えてよ 涙がこぼれそう でラブコール あの娘にラブコール 何が どうしたの わかんない 聞きたくない クツが 片方 どっかに 消えた 俺は どうする どこに 行こう でもね 本当は 本当は 朝になってた カラスの親子 呼び合ってる 俺はちょっとだけ 嬉しくなって 立ち上がる 涙がこぼれそう でラブコール あの娘にラブコール 涙がこぼれそう でラブコール あの娘にラブコール Romaji: Denwa sagashita Ano ko ni kikanakucha Ore sa ima doko?

In a broken night I fell in rotary Blood and iron mixed Somewhere there’s a bit of nostalgical taste. From the asphalt I heard London punk I didn’t want to stand up, I wanted to be able to do something. The tears will likely spill to the love call A love call for that girl. With the tail of the eye I saw a fox and a mole kissing each other What is pure? Someone tells me it. The tears will likely spill to the love call A love call for that girl. What is wrong? I don’t know, I don’t want to hear it The shoes are disappeared on another side What I will do? Where I will go? By the way, actually, actually… It was morning, the crow with its little one call me I become a bit happier and I stand up. The tears will likely spill to the love call A love call for that girl. The tears will likely spill to the love call A love call for that girl. Kanji from kkbox.com Romaji from here Translation is mine, so credit me before posting elsewhere!

Hi guys i hope this is the right tread for this question ... does anybody kow what happened to the KYOKUTOU GIRL FRIEND guys after breaking up? are they still around or retired?

As there aren't translations of this great song, I decided to do that as my first whole song translation! I tell you that my Japanese is quite basic and I tried to do an understandable translation, so you are free to comment anything about it! Kanji: 耳鳴りが止まない ｢頭が割れそうになる｣ このvisionだけを見せるなら ｢いっそ殺して｣ for you そっと呟いた ここには何も残らない 噎び泣いた後 景色は闇に消えていく 幾つ夜を超えればいい？ 消せぬ痛みを帰す場所が無い 絶望の雨が「君」を押し潰した きっと… この夜には救えない 独吟すれば少しは紛れると思った 悲しみは消えなくて 飲み込まれる この悲愴に 唯　唯 僕は見ているだけ 独裁の雨が「君」を縛り付けても 優しい記憶は消さないで 絶望の雨が 「君」を切り裂いた 今も… 打ち拉がれるようにそっと崩れてく 切望した未来 殺した感情 もう要らない 消えかけた僕には見えないから 絶命寸前の「君」に何ができる 僕には触れられもしないから Romaji: miminari ga yamanai "atama ga waresou ni naru" kono vision dake o miseru nara "isso koroshite yo" for you sotto tsubuyaita koko ni wa nanimo nokoranai musebinaita ato keshiki wa yami ni kieteyuku ikutsu yoru o koereba ii? kesenu itami o kaesu basho ga nai zetsubou no ame ga "kimi" o oshitsubushita kitto... kono yoru ni wa sukuenai dokugin sureba sukoshi wa magireru to omotta kanashimi wa sou kienakute nomikomareru kono hisou ni tada tada boku wa miteiru dake dokusai no ame ga "kimi" o shibaritsukete mo yasashii kioku wa kesanai de zetsubou no ame ga "kimi" o kirisaita ima mo... uchihishigareru you ni sotto kuzureteku setsubou shita mirai koroshita kanjou mou iranai kiekaketa boku ni wa mienai kara zetsumei sunzen no "kimi" ni nani ga dekiru boku ni wa furerare mo shinai kara. Translation: "The rain of despair falling on you" The buzzing doesn't stop "My head will crack" If this vision showed me only this "Kill me rather" For you Softly muttered Nothing remains here. After I cried The scenery vanished in the dark How many nights I should go over? There isn't a place where to return an indelible pain. The rain of despair has crushed "you" Surely... I can't save this night If, singing by myself for a while, I thought of being lost The sadness won't disappear Swallowed In this pain Absolutely I am only looking for it Even if the rain of despotism has tied down "you" Don't erase the gentle memory The rain of despair has torn "you" Even now... It softly crumbles as it has been struck A longing future Killed emotions I don't need them again Because I can't see it fading from me What you can do before your death Because I won't be touched.

Does anybody know a website/websites for buying Tanbi Kei clothing (Versailles-style)? I've seen some sites but they don't sell male clothing (the Versailels prince-like/fantasy style). Also, I can't even really find female Tanbi Kei clothes. It's mostly just classical/gothic lolita, which isn't exactly what I want. Do you guys know some websites for Tanbi Kei clothes (Versailles' style)?

Just realized that there's no topic for RiR lyrics and only the request one, so I figured I'd romanize the lyrics I have and post them here!

Wow I don't even know how long I've been away. Anyway, I'm not a new member, but I guess I took a hiatus of at least 6 months or more. If you don't recognize me, I love artists like Gackt and X Japan and the melodic stuff, Kamijo & Versailles, etc. I'm really not into the screamo stuff. I'm also an artist myself, I have a new single "Lion" coming out on October 1st. The two songs are inspired by j-rock and 80s rock like Billy Idol. And I play flute on it. For those of you who might be interested, http://www.vitne.net So yeah, I'm ready to be back and learn about new awesome (and not-so-awesome) Japanese rock!

INORAN new album (title not yet finalized) will be released at 2016/08

Most everyone I've shown my music to have expressed either neutral or negative thoughts about it. Even my father who's into a lot of nu-metal and a little bit of deathcore doesn't seem to have any reaction when I show him bands which suit those interests. Most people seem to bring up the language barrier a lot. Do you believe this to be a valid argument? Or do you believe this is just a cover up for an ingrained racial bias? What are your experiences when sharing your music to others?

Does anyone here like to use discogs? I like their site a lot. You can check release information for any format and genre of music, see photos of releases, and keep a customized list of any releases you have or want. It also doubles as a music wikipedia and anyone can update any information as needed. I've made a few contributions for bands like lynch. and DEZERT and their format is super easy to use. You can even get as detailed as music and lyric credits and lump different versions or editions as sub-categories into one master list. It also triples as a market place for people to buy and sell music from all over the world. But, usually people who sell here tend to overprice a LOT. I know there are a lot of separate websites that can do these things, but I like discogs because you can do all that on one site under one profile. It's especially convenient for keeping track of one's music collection. So anyways, do ya???

Hello dear Winger!! I need your precious help! I'm trying to collect as much as I can, all the lyrics of Wing Works available!

After weeks of listening to lynch.'s new album I've come to the conclusion that "D.A.R.K. -In the name of evil-" ranks among the best of lynch.'s repertoire. Seriously, I haven't had this much fun listening to a lynch. album since "I BELIEVE IN ME". Let's get right into it. INTRODUCTION is nothing special but does a good enough job as a transitional piece. It's just a group of strings playing louder and louder until it climaxes into the next song. D.A.R.K. starts out just as you might think: Heavy and, well, dark. But, the song becomes softer going into the chorus. Hazuki's melody is melancholic and the addition of piano adds a soft beauty. The song is a steady back and forth between the heavy and soft sections but it all gels quite nicely. There's no time to take it easy though as ANTARES ramps up the energy. Immediately, I hear remnants of "Inferiority Complex" in the guitars and the steady "boom-chuck" cadence of the drums. Personally, I'm not a fan of that style but all can be forgiven if the chorus is awesome. Unfortunately, the chorus is weak and uninspired and just doesn't seem to fit the tone of the album set so far. It sounds too bright. However, a little over halfway the song a break down comes out of nowhere and shakes up the place. It's just too bad it doesn't last longer. In fact, because it's so abrupt it breaks the flow of the song and I question if it might have been better had they left it out. In the end, it just feels like lynch. took a weak "Inferiority Complex" era song and re-purposed it for "-In the name of evil-". If the last track didn't get you pumped though, EVOKE hits hard and keeps the momentum going. Hazuki lets out a visceral yell as the drums are relentlessly blasting and guitars are riffing. The chorus melody is really catchy and ranks among one of my favorites and, there's another amazing breakdown in this song. Next up is the medium-tempo jazzy rock track GHOST. While it's nothing jaw dropping, it's refreshing to hear the band do something different for a change. I don't like that it's right after EVOKE though as the change in pace drags the album down. For circus music lovers and radio listeners, lynch. starts out ILLUMINATI with a "crossing-a-tightrope-type" song played on timpani and organs under a radio filter. But, don't worry. If you're not a fan of either, the song launches back into their heavy and dark style. This is another song with a fantastic chorus and the use of Hazuki's backup screams add some brutality. The band is holding back no punches and hits us with another break down but this time with more discord and ferocity. We finally get to our first ballad, ETERNITY. There's not too much to say except that it's all beautiful: The pulsing bass, rolling toms, articulate piano, swirling guitars, and the heartfelt vocals. Quadruple kick drum is the name of the game with FALLEN. It's a straight forward song with great melodies but the quadruple kick cadence in the drums helps add some extra emphasis to really drive those melodies through the song. It's a nice more energetic extension of ETERNITY. BEAST brings the tempo back up with some awesome riffs and screaming. The chorus is simple but well built and memorable. It's actually similar to ANTARES as Hazuki even uses the same "whooah-ooh-oh"s for the backup vocals in the chorus. lynch. might have been better off renaming the album "D.A.R.K. -In the name of break downs-" because another great one is featured here. Initially I had problems with the length and felt that thet song could've have used more sections, but I've grown to enjoy the length and even its repetitive nature. At least it's not as short as INVADER. Clocking in at 1:27 we have the shortest song here on the album (I think maybe even the shortest lynch. song ever). As a result, all I have to say is it's a fast, heavy song with some great slap bass action and a decent chorus. COSMOS was one of my most anticipated songs on the album. Part of that anticipation can be attributed to the amazing guitar riff heard in the preview. However, it ended up falling short of expectations. I just wanted the song to revolve around the awesome riff, but it takes another 2 minutes from the beginning of the chorus to get there again (aka the end of the song). I think the problem is that they approached this song like GALLOWS where the first half is heavy, the second half is chorus, and the ending is back to heavy. The track could've have benefited from being shorter or being written to sprinkle the riff in more throughout the song. MELANCHOLIC is another wonderful ballad that manages to stay a different flavor than the previous two before it (FALLEN is a ballad right?....Power ballad maybe?...). Again, not much to say except that it's beautiful. We finally come to the last track MOON. First off, I just want to say I love that it extends from the last song by using similar guitar effects/sounds. Basically, I'm just trying to say it really sounds like the perfect song after MELANCHOLIC. It's a really upbeat track and ends the album nicely. Essentially, it's like all the other lynch. album closers (seriously, all lynch. albums end on a more upbeat note). But, it did make me think. Nearly 80% of the album was upbeat like MOON. D.A.R.K., ILLUMINATI, and maybe COSMOS were really the only tracks that delivered that dark and evil theme. All the other songs were either just heavy but not dark/nefarious, or ballads. I enjoyed the album a lot, but I'm thinking maybe the album was misnamed. Still, I regard "D.A.R.K. -In the name of evil-" as one of lynch.'s best works. Most of the songs are fantastic, the pacing of the album is spot on for the most part, and the variety of song types keeps every listen enjoyable. I swear the album only gets better with each listen.

hello i m an online visual kei host it would be nice to meet people who might be interested in it (I'm still new so i don't really know how this network works )

Does anyone know good anime that focus around rock bands ? BECK (26 episodes): I think this is the best one because it explains lots of things about learning an instrument and being in a band. http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=2320 I've watched Kaikan Phrase which is closer to the visual kei genre, but after some episodes, it starts to get boring, too much romance and less talk about music, anyway, it was worth it because of the music and the first episodes. The band that did the soundtrack was called Lucifer. The songs are very nice. Kaikan Phrase (44 episodes): http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=843 To-y (1 OVA): I've found this one searching through anidb website, it looks like a classic. http://anidb.net/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=2922 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2Wyj9dy__Y

I sadly lack the Vampire Gothic release from Vampire Rose, so if anyone can help me get these lyrics, I'd appreciate it greatly.

~ Hi everyone As the topic title says, I would like to start a long distance band and I'm looking for musicians to make this idea come true - Fortunately - as I can see, this is nothing new here and it seems to be working just fine (as I heard), so it is worth to at least try ... Well, to be honest - starting a *real* band infuenced by jRock and VK is a madman's dream in my country, I've been trying for years - so reality pushed me far enough to try to do it that way I'm listening to jRock/VK and playing guitar for more than a half of my life, I can also sing, play keyboard/piano/harpsichord and bass guitars, I have experience in composing classical parts and orchestrations, home recording and sound engeneering, I read standard notation and use Guitar Pro for years - I am strongly influenced by both classic bands like X Japan, Loudness, Anthem, Bow Wow, Dead End, EZO, 44magnum and Malice Mizer - and more modern - like Phantasmagoria, D, Dis Marionette, Siam Shade, V[neu], Rave, noGod etc... This way I've covered the answers for most basic questions I suppose If anyone share my frustration, have serious approach to making music or at last wanna play stuff that You always wanted to play (or just want to participate in sth like that and contribute), feel free to write ~

Dear MH, I have launched a new radio station for all VK, Jrock, etc. called Visual Kei FEVER It would be wonderful if you could help spread the word, as it needs to garner a specific amount of listening hours per month in order to stay "in business" the first 3 months. The selection is a bit limited at the moment, but it is growing. I must legally own all the music played, so you can see why it is a bit limited! And as such, I would certainly love to hear what artists you would like to see on there. Currently I've got: GACKT, X Japan, L'arc~en~Ciel, Hiza:ki, Misaruka, GLAY, Jupiter, Versailles, Luna Sea, Matenrou Opera, and NIGHTMARE. Visit www.VisualRockRadio.com to listen Thanks for the support ( ) PS. Independent artists are welcome! So, if you are an independent VK artist (or inspired by VK, similar-to, etc.) then by all means send me a message and a way to listen to your music. If it fits and is up to airplay standards, then you'll be added. And, you'll get royalties

Hello, I am currently looking to buy old Jrock magazines from year 1999 and earlier. Any brand (fools mate,GB,Arena37c,UV,etc) is fine,DVDs or VHS too.Having a difficult time finding these so I decided to post here. Located in the U.S , and hoping for someone who is willing to take Concealed Cash as a payment. If anyone is trying to get rid of their old magazines/videos and doesn't strictly want paypal or check, please respond right away~!
