Don't you hate it when you back files up, delete the originals, go back to get the copies and realize it didn't copy ALL the files?
Yeah... i was defraggin my mp3player and none of my Jrock photos made it. I need help. All of My diru, Gazette....ALL of it is gone. I need a massive rush of recovery. I need kind, generous, loving souls to reach out this christmas and gimme their goods.
Please be awsome and share your inventory of Jrock pics <333 Over 3 years of collecting has gone down the drain T_T
YUP!! Dir en grey have a new single out and people are STILL pissing and moaning. These so called fans have no class or respect. Like Kaoru said, him and the band are ever growing and ever changing. Who gives a fuck if you don't like this song or that song? Its what Diru do and no amount of bitching will change their minds- especially Kyo's.
If they wanna sound thrashy and full of hardcore metal, then that's their decision. The dissonance projected by Kyo's vocal shreds and Kaoru discourseful guitar whines greatly represent this type of music. Die's part and Shinya's more 'silent' drumming...maybe around the 40th second in definitly smacks your senses into calming down, forcing you to clear your dizzy head and look around(figure out wtf is going on)[[another good thing the PV has done]] Shinya's double bass thoroughly rapes my heart into beating just as sporadic and chaotically =D!! Shinya proves himself each time the music calms down with his variety of cymbals, hihats, and flatout drumsmashing. Although, Toshiya's bass is hard of hearing amidst all the chaos. *shrugs* That's what happens to a lot of bass riffs. They just meld into the noise. AND considering the kind of racket spewing forth, its a wonder I even glimpsed a bit of Toshiya here and there O_O But if you listen closely to the double bass, you can hear a rattling keeping in beat ^___^ The only thing left is to discern wtf Kyo's screeching about. I didn't find any lyrics(translation if its not in english like CS). At first it just sounded like unorganized Kyo ruggles but c'mon, its Kyo! He HAS to be saying something. So, despite GARBAGE live and his turkey gobbles, I'll silently grin devilishly trying to figure his mass code of squeals and throat belches until I find those lyrics....or get the single myself and see if its on there-doubt it-
Now.... The PV
As with the song, the pv took a bit getting used to. I don't prefer the animation. I understand Diru didn't have time to shoot for this. The coloring and tone is very efficient and the grainy, scratchy look kicks ass. I especially loved the maggot falling to the floor with the blue shading. Very choice~ But I just don't prefer the animation *sigh* especially when Mr. Maggoface decides to jump on the table and shat over the poor girl. Kinda distasteful but it adds to the affect of the song and story within the pv. I applaud Diru for grossing most of the population out =3 They just have to keep weeding out the unloyal 'fans' I'll stick by their side through every bashing critique!! *cough* sidetracked *cough* Right, so, the pv plays along well with the music. Each calming period is coupled with a stilled moment, such as the girl and her mom enjoying a nice mea---OMFCREEPY MAGGOT ATE MOMMY YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!! The mom's death and the surge of chaotic music mesh wonderfully.
I'm glad I rewatched/relistened. I had my doubts at first but this is another masterpiece by Dir en grey. It may not go well with superfluous gits who don't appreciate growth and change, but i'm now able to say i'm pleased. Hm...I do have a bit more negative comments i've been withholding till the end. I can't be biased because Diru's my fav. band.
First hearing the new single, it sounded like Kyo was just being lazy and screaming like he does on stage when he doesn't want to sing the actual words. I felt as if the band was trying too hard to attract their new American fans. I missed Die's spazzy moments of guitar shookas. I missed Toshiya's pretty bass slides. I was startled by Shinya's new drumming. Phew, hearing a new style played by Shinya really shocked me. The guy's got tricks up his sleeves, he just won't tell us~ Kaoru I just loved xD <333 And watching the pv first before listening unbiased...it rattled me for a night. But I'm over it. I might email Kaoru telling him what I thought worked and what I thought didn't. I'll dig out that kanji dictionary from somewhere>.>;
one last note,
Recalling oldschool diru and current diru..... They're not kids anymore. Their music is no longer happy melodic skipskip weeee like that of a child's mind. 3 members are 30 already. To me, this harsh music is them signifying their adulthood. Yokan and even ChildPrey was kidsstuff. They outgrew flashy costumes and parlor tricks. Let them express their grownup selves and stop griping over "SICK DISGUSTING FILTHY UGLY HATE HATE YUCKY POO POO" music. Mature abit Mmkay?
Went to Boulder tonight. Went with an old friend...like a best friend. I've known her since first grade @___@ We havent seen eachother in 3 years. We didnt do too much but it was ok. I somehow found this resturant, Japango, that just a few hours earlier, my chiropractor mentioned was good. I was a cheapass and didnt go in but i'll think about it. I mainly wanted to find Ame. Its a traditional japanese bar. Hmm well that's all you get for now.
Intarwebz is being a slow bitch so no piccies >p
Got a new bassu today~ His last name is Juandito^^ I spent 3o0 bux on this bitch here. The black one you'll see is my old 80 dollar one, Kizu. Heh he's stringless >3 Yeah,I've been waiting months for this pretty puppy. Help me find a first name for him =3
THIS is (last name) Juandito <3333
Morne for Kizu and praise (last name) Juandito. I'll miss Kizu but he was useful and loyal to me, especially since i always smacked him around ^^;
Um... Ok so I posted this on DA and just copied it here>.> Look below to see
I went to the store to buy a bass. They (to my wonderful luck) just got in a shipment of Ibanez
I saw some sexeh wooden basses, one being a 5 string *creaaaaaam* they had Mr. $2200 in all his shiny glory
I saw another sexy 5 string but he was black and black is dirty. I don't wanna deal with another black one @__@;;
SO!! I play the 5 string cuz I wanna^^ then I see this white Ibanez one. Well..more like Mike showed me him >.>; THAT"S NOT THE POINT!!!!
Anyway, I play Mr. White and it takes a bit to get used to the feel. He's a bit heavier than what I'ma used to and he's got 2 pickups to smack my fingers against instead of one. I forego that and play some stuff, slapping and such; just testing him out for sound and feel. I wasn't too sure so I handled a few others. None of them felt right. They just...didnt play or hold like they should have. So I went back to Mr. White and tried him again. I gave him another lookin at and that decided it.
I go back to Mike and I go, "I decided... It was rough but I'ma going with Mr. Whitey." He just laughed.
Mike: "we've got a couple colors. Black..."
Yashi: "No more black, they're too dirty"
Mike: *laugh* "alright, i've got a couple upstairs"
He disappears and comes down hold a red and a blue one. He hands me the red one and walks to the wall to put them up. I stare at the red one in my hands, then the blue, back to the red and then it clicks. This fucker is mine!! Dont fucking touch me he's MINE!!! ><
This lil bitch is mah baby now~ It just set me back 300 bux T.T
Totally worth it cuz i also got a nice hard case with it.
'Lo
I am teh nefarious Yashito. I've found my way here,oh shi- I'ma gonna copypasta from an introductory blog on another site.
In the past I've been to Myspace, Xanga, Caleida, and recently Deviantart. So far the only that hasn't seemed to piss me off thoroughly is Dev. Don't ask me if I speak Japanese, because yes I do. It's my fourth language learned. My original tongue is German, my second language is English and I used to take Spanish in elementary/middle school. I am technically not eighteen until the end of 2006 but it's only a few months to go.
I am into Jrock and occassionally insist there is no such thing as Jpop<.<;; I admit Gackt is Jpop but I'ma willing to let a few slide like T.M.Revolution. I used to be Überly obsessed with anime and manga but I've cooled down because being a weeaboo otaku is NOT a good thing. Nonetheless you still can see me once and awhile partaking in a few dvds here and there.
In the past I have not been treated nicely and won't tolerate abuse. My self esteem is average but it can still take a beating like anyone elses'. I play bass and vocalize. It's what I'ma basing my career path off of. I plan to attend Berklee Music College, but that's if I get in. I also love art but I fail at that so don't expect much in the skills department. I've taken AP Psychology and plan on taking more college classes but I AM NOT YOUR THERAPIST. Too many people have used me as a bandaid and I'll only listen to close friends who will listen back. *cough* Aside from that I can be a charming person^^ Just talk to me, be nice and I'll be nice back, that simple.
My other interests include horseback riding, RolePlaying((yaoi of course) swimming, Tons of music, making eskimo babies in mah tummybox then eating them when their ripe >3 Makin' bebbehs with Mishy. Browsing /b/ I love macabre and horror. MMmm yush. Sick fetishes like guro and thinks along the lines of Angura Kei or Visual Kei are bitchin' I love sweet potato icecream and square shaped iced desserts~ Oh I'ma also a grammar nazi. Don't freak out if I snap for poor use of grammar if English is your first language.
I also tend to be a hyppocrite too>.>;; I'ma quite lazy and a very bad procrastinator, though I have gotten better over the years with rising maturity levels in demand. I'ma also a habitual liar. I can't handle mornings or people all that much. I am quite antisocial. But let me awaken on my terms and leave me alone when I say and we're good. But since most the people here are no where near me, I don't think that's a problem =3
Also, My compy supports the Japanese font but I don't have the font myself so I can't write kanji. I'ma resorted to copy pasta¯__¯' So you'll see romanji quite often.
I have an autistic muse who owns his own apartment. His boyfriend is my guitarist's conscience. I'll mention him and his tenants a bit too. Especially my favorite, Pence n_n
This is the longest these blogs will be. Usually all introductions tend to be long, hm?
I'll figure out how to help somehow. XD read more
