Kawaii Kunoichi: But...Dreams is a single and was released in August. Are you thinking of 10 COLOR SINGLES or their newest single, Amazing (scheduled to come out in December)? Gah! Sorry...Dreams IS a single. You're right, Para. Though, I remember reading that Dreams is the name, of the album. Hmmm. Maybe Newtype got it wrong?

I like T.M Revolution , Weiss kruz, Yoko Kano, the pillows and Asian kung fu generation. I mostly like the music I hear in the animes I watch.

I loved the work Yoko Kano did in Cowboy Bebop. I also like Alice Nine and L'Arc~en~Ciel.

I liked L'Arc~en~Ciel's "Ready Steady Go" song for FMA. But they sound TERRIBLE in their other songs. I really don't like Japanese singers that much. Sure, I have my favorite anime openings and endings, but when I tried listening to other songs by the artists, they didn't sound too great. And now, all these Asian bands are dressing themselves up weirdly and giving themselves ugly make-up and hair. Why do they have to do that?!!?!? It drives me crazy!!!!!

xD Can you give an example of a band doing that?
Hm...is anyone else pre-ordering GazettE's new single? I did. xD
alice nine.'s newest single Mirrorball is supposed to come in March, but since Tora has a spinal disc hernia, the tour was postponed and who knows when it will release. And I'm totally hating Shou's new look. He looks like he's trying to be Uruha. It's not working for him. D:

Here's a start.... THE GROUP IN YOUR SIGNATURE.
Are they supposed to be guys? I honestly can't tell.

The style of these bands are visual-kei, so they have the flow-y hair, swooshy clothes and make-up. I like it though. Sometimes it looks ugly *cough*Shouinmirrorball*cough*, but it all depends. Honestly though, you get used to it. I used to hate it. D:

WHOA. You're being very calm about this Para. Chibi Chan...I'm sorry but you're not stating your opinion with much tact. What I mean is, I took major offense, and I'm sure Para did too, she's just not saying it must. There's some people (actually A LOT) that like that style of music and dressing. You have to get used to it, and clearly they're all guys And those bands did (and still do) dress like that to attract attention to their music. It's worked, too. But you're entitled to your opinion, as we are. @para: Nahh, I don't ever order anything -.- Maybe I will one of these days. I just downloaaaad. Ah, you're being too mean to Shou in that =O

I have no preference, but I personally would never listen to this music. Sorry, but to each his own, right? (post-stalkerish, but I heard that debate was about to spawn here)

Ah, you're being too mean to Shou in that =O I haven't heard their music but I'm not a fan of dressing like that just to grab attention. I like it when my guys look like guys and don't wear make-up and have extravagant hair. You think that they CLEARLY look like guys? If there's only a face to look at, I can't tell the gender. Maybe if there was a full body shot, I could tell that they were truly guys, but they would still look like chicks. If bands really wanted to attract attention to their music, they'd do it with lyrics and sound, not over-the-top appearance.

luna: Ok...well he doesn't look stupid. But I don't like it. XD @chibi: ...but see you haven't listened to the music, so it's not fair to disqualify them. xP Half the bands that are Jrock and do the openings/closings to your animes ARE visual-kei, you just haven't seen them. The music industry is all about sex appeal now. They attract their fanbase with a certain look of sex appeal in this mid-region based on flashy clothes and the sorts. Koda Kumi attracts her fanbase of males with her physique and often racy attire. When I hear a song on the radio/TV show/etc., I like the song. I don't see a poster and go "woah, they're smoking hot. That must mean their music is awesome." That doesn't apply because if it did, I would like Arashi and I would hate Kaggra,. I HATED visual-kei because I thought it was weird. Most people I've talked to didn't really care for the style until after they got used to it. It's an adjustment. I was a huge fan of the GazettE and alice nine. and miyavi's music, but I did not like their appearance. You also have to keep in mind the Japanese race consist of more feminine-looking males. I'm not saying they all look like that, but a lot do. So actually listen to a song and state whether the MUSIC is to your liking, not whether the musicians appearance is your cup of tea.
