Ordered The Omnigod, fairly happy that there's no issue with HMV selling to overseas customers on this one, AND they're including a poster! Happy days
I'm guessing it'll be a poster of the album cover itself
It's always cool getting little freebies like that 0 -
Nobody cares about every little thing Babymetal does, Dublin Red Devil. Nobody is interested in all these irrelevant bits of news. Are they playing in Ireland any time soon? A new album out? 'cos that would be relevant. Posting about every little thing they get up to is just annoying.
You do realize that the "babymetal hater" is now seen as a pathetic position in today's metal community. They are a legitimate, established metal band who have earned their stripes on the world stage.
Don't fight it! Embrace it!
The Metal world loves BABYMETAL

Sukekiyo? I know they've played in the London recently enough, but no Irish dates. I'd imagine Kyo's going to be touring with Dir en Grey supporting the new album, so fingers crossed we'll see them over this side.
Still need to give Sukekiyo a listen

You know, last time I saw a Japanese band in Ireland was Lite a couple of years back. I'd been bugging DME to get Sigh over, but no luck as it seems they're only doing festivals at the moment. Hoping they'll do a full tour for the new album in the new year and we get a chance to see them 0

It'd be class to see Sigh, maybe some day it'll happen over here.0 -
I'd say we could see them at some point
Honestly, I'd really hope to see Dir en Grey play in Ireland, I'd say they'd kill somewhere like The Academy, would be incredible to see

Ripping my copy of Dir En Grey's Arche now then I'm gonna watch that DVD
Whoever managed to get hold of the limited edition first pressing, consider yourselves lucky, because it's sold out most places already! As of posting, Amazon.co.jp say there's 1 left in stock, but they've bumped their price up over ￥10,000 I think I'm gonna be keeping mine in the plastic sleeve it came in. But hey, check this out!
Merry Christmas! 0 -

got some moneys at Christmas, so I'm going to grab the new Jupiter album! It took me a while to get into them, but they stopped being just 'the band that used to be Versaillies' and really, really started being their own thing, which is nothing short of incredible.

Listening to Nightmare a fair bit, really need to get hold of some of their newer albums though

Never got into them unfortunately.
Tried them out after Death Note and listened to their newer stuff which is supposedly dire in comparison to their older
Can't wait to see how Babymetal choreograph a dance to that :pac:0 -

I actually think I got into them before I saw Death Note, but I only got to see Death note a couple of years ago, I was very late with that one! Got a few of their albums, the most recent being 2008's Killer Show which is probably my favourite. This has been my earworm for the last couple of days:
Pity if their later stuff isn't up to scratch, but from what I've heard they still sound good, the song Mimic is from their 2013 album Scums, so they're definitly writing some good songs at least. They've a new one coming out in March, so I really must catch up!
They're a lot more Rock compared to some of the stuff posted on this thread, which ain't a bad thing 0 -

Cool, thanks for posting! They're a band I never got into, but if you like the mix of electronic sounds, Blood Stain Child are really worth checking out

Had a look about, and there doesn't seem to be any CD version of the DVD, from what I could gather here. Searched on the Japanese HMV and Amazon sites too and no luck, so I'd say it's just available on DVD.
But I did notice he does a cover of Lover Boy
He's got nothing on his former L'arc en Ciel bandmate Hyde's vocals, but musicially it's a damn good cover! 0 -

Thanks Links234... Im not too familiar at all with Asian rock music,only what I discover through this thread and then from youtube suggesting vids.. Quite like Girugamesh also at the min
Maybe I could buy the Live dvd and rip the audio from it? wouldnt have a scooby doo how to do it but could be worth a shot :cool:0 -

I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to do, this seems perfect for what you want to do, and VLC is free.
Yeah Girugamesh are awesome
If you're liking Ken's solo stuff then check out L'Arc en Ciel if you've not done so already! Though they're big enough worldwide that you might've heard of them, if not, that's Ken there on guitar

While we're talking about covers, and I'm on a bit of a L'arc en Ciel buzz, this something else

So here's something interesting from Huffing Post UK, Seven Japanese Acts to Watch in 2015.
Cool to see The Gazette and Maximum The Hormone on there, but some other interesting stuff there too. Necronomidol is interesting

Guys, check out Ningen Isu immediately!
They've got this old-school heavy metal sound, kinda doomy, don't take themselves too seriously and are just all kinds of awesome. I'd say quite a few people here might like them, they're quite the opposite of what I usually post, none of the excessively OTT style of metal I like, just a simple 3 piece with big riffs and a huge sound. I'd say fans of Boris or Church of Misery would seriously like these guys!
