Rant About DeG Fansites

Isn't it just great how it takes like, forever to find a Dir en Grey fansites/info sections that go PAST Macabre?! Heck, Tattered Cloth ALMOST makes it to six Ugly. But I go into general Jmusic sites and most of them just HINT at the fact that the album Vulgar even existed. Either that or they're just like 'WELL THEYRE TOO LOUD NOW ::shoots behind shed::' I think they should just close the sites down. ^^

Seriously though. They're not stealing from American music. They don't NEED to wear dresses to be good. Kyo's screaming is rather artistic, rather than just loud and sloppy as nu-metal does it. So.. I don't understand where the problem is. Not all J-bands need to be all OMGKAWAII and girly. Look at D'espairsRay, only Zero's girly, and they're making it. I always see people hatin' on their music/image. I don't understand why, since when Kyo sang, his lyrics were about stuff like incest and cannibalism. KAWAII!!!!!!! So, then people call it noise. If you actually listen to songs like Clever Sleazoid, Garbage, or Saku, you can hear little stuff in the background. But people overlook that because Kyo screamed. People just focus on what he's doing. It's just another singing style anyway. It's not like he's making car noises into the mic. But.. I think Kyo said it best about older fans. (:

Rant About Mana Fans

OMG MANAS ALWAYS UP FRONT LOL
.........Okay. Do we ever see the GacktJOB in photobooks. I don't think so. I dunno who's even IN GacktJOB right now. 'Least Mana points to their pictures on the website. I seriously think, for a solo project, Mana's being generous! Who're Miyavi's support members? What about PuffyAmiYumi? I mean, the whole snob thing, as far as I'm concerned isn't true. People always make up some flaws against everyone. Like the whole 'Gackt's a sellout/whore' thing. With the whole Kazuno issue, I kinda agree. Whenever Mana goes near Kazuno, he kinda moves away. And K's all like RAH UP IN YO GRILL. I want Kazuno to be in the middle or something. He's so amusing! And adorable. <3

Side note: I hope Mana gets a deep voiced singer, but one that doesn't sound like Gacklaha. I think Gackt, Klaha, Kaya, and Juka are enough. We should have one with a strong voice, and can actually scream live. The whole forced rumbly voice wasn't that great. Though Juka was awesome, he had his rough parts, like the fact he only sang in one octave. I liked Tetsu and Klaha because they could go lower and higher than their natural tone. Oh well. Maybe I'm being too wishful.. afterall.. Mana has a little dungeon where he keeps Gackt's DNA... and a machine to clone him with. Unfortunately, the singers are temporary and go on to be pop stars.. (You just wait. Kaya's solo career is gonna bloom! xD ...And Juka's gonna have one too!)

Sigh. That was one long rant.

So, I now have Call of Duty 2. And it's awesome.

I usually dislike shooters, but now there's a few I'm after. This was one of them. It's freakin' great. Very few graphical errors. It's challenging too.

Next up.. is Gun.

LOL MY FIRST REVIEW.

D'espairsRay - Murder Day

So, DespairsRay made a DVD. And it is awesome. And I shall say my whole review.

So, it starts with someone (Zero?) explaining the name. It was pretty cool. Suddenly it shows the band, behind curtains, as electronic music plays in the background. The curtain falls, and they start playing Garnet. Good, no? I'm not gonna narrate the whole DVD. :P

Hizumi was awesome. He always looked like he was having fun. His weird hand motions were entertaining, too. His performance was great.

Zero was my second favorite. This DVD is what made me a Zero fan. He always went from standing still to headbanging. I also thought it was funny that the only sound he seemed to be able to make was "RYE!" He looked great too.

Karyu was my FAVORITE. Zero's my favorite member but.. Karyu... He was awesome. His movement in Gothic was.. Priceless. His constant swaying/grooving/headbanging was so amusing. I couldn't see his eyes though.. o_O He looked kinda cute though.

The music is where it kinda tripped. Alot of the songs sounded generic. I only really recognized Garnet, Maverick, Gothic, and Marry of the Blood. I later learned the other songs, but I ended up skipping them in the DVD anyway. Another lacking point is how there's like, ALOT of prerecorded vocals. They coulda had Karyu or Zero do those. It'd give Zero another sound to make! But... After all I ended up watching this more than I watched Invite to Immorality. And that's a darn good DVD too.

I SO wanna see a D'espairsRay concert. (Though I never will, because I'm poor.) For a few reasons: To see musicians play live, to touch Hizumi and/or Zero, and to do something important/interesting.
