I definitely liked Kamijo's voice on all the albums prior to Holy Grail much more (and the most recent singles I like his voice too) but on Holy Grail I felt he tried to go out of range at times. But I absolutely loved his voice on the song Setsurenka when he was in Lareine.

Yeah and Tetsu was the greatest vocalist to ever live. Honestly, Malice Mizer Tetsu (cant speak much for Zigzo and Nil) had absolutely no control over his voice and slurred words all over the place. And honestly, Klaha can sound really flat and terrible live as well...

Well, I think Im officially done with Moi Dix Mois until they get a new vocalist. I liked Seth in Beyond the Gate, and everything since then just felt and sounded terrible to me. The new song isnt half bad, but it just feels stale at this point. I love this style of music, but Moi Dix Mois...

Until the Last Day is a pretty good song. I actually liked it fairly well. YFC recently has broken up, which Im alright with since I didnt find that they were anything amazing and didnt care for the bassist or other guitarist. I thought they played sloppily. But Im disappointed because...

Actually, from the amount of complaining, I was expecting this album to be awful. I actually think this is Kozi's most accessible album to date if you were to show it to an average person. So far I've heard elements of punk, reggae, technoish type music, jazz, and rock. The instrumentation...

So is it Kozi that is still singing in the band or someone else? Im not familiar with the band members from Kozi's solo work and XA-VAT was god awful (and Kozi's second solo cd wasnt even that great). Truthfully Ive been kind of bored with music in general recently (including all the bands...

Well, I listened to the entire cd a few times and here are my impressions. Overall Id say it's a solid album, but not amazing. Which, I wasnt expecting to be. The End of the Day wasnt exactly my favorite song when it came out and it still isnt. All My Love I thought was a decent ballad...

so new YFC single came out. All my Love/You Are the Reason I didnt think I was going to like them that much but I like it better than their first single. It doesnt blow me away like some of early Gackt stuff but it isnt bad at all. Im not a fan of Gackt and Jon live but on cd they sound...

I bought Bunraku on blu ray recently. Its a decent movie, not great but not bad. Fun to watch.

What are the jrock covers you know of? English and Japanese. Only ones I can think of off the top of my head are The Nil cover album D - Gekka no Yasou Kyoku (or however its spelled) from Malice Mizer Abingdon Boys School - Dress Some Gackt gundam covers One Ok Rock - To Feel the Fire

Ok, so after many play throughs, I really appreciate this album. Id say out of all albums, it is most like Uroboros, but Id say it has a more cohesive feel to it overall. It all flows together very well. I think there were some stronger songs on Uroboros, which I loved greatly, but Dum...

I have mixed feelings I like the song. It doesnt really have the same Gackt feel as his solo works. To me there isnt as much emotion in it. It has more of a straight rock feel than an emotional tone like most of his music. I like the harmonizing in this and the sound of the music and...

So anyone listen to this yet? I completely forgot it came out last month actually. Ive only given it one listen so far and I like it. I really loved Uroboros and this goes more in that direction where it has a religious sorta feel to it (hindi or buddist) So far, on one listen I like...

Thats what Im afraid of. From hearing a few recordings, it doesnt sound to me, like they can harmonize together too well. Which is always a problem when you have two vocalists. You either need to be able to, or just use one vocalist. Ever was a decent single IMO. It was a little different...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_qN5c4ZW6w New preview for YFC's The End of the Day

I wouldnt say it's a stretch to say he is burnt out though, hell he even said so himself when he started releasing the singles for the second Rebirth material. That's why it took so long for everything to come out and he was doing all those other side projects with acting, etc.

I havent really kept up with YFC since I always thought it was kinda stupid. I didnt really like the whole persona of the band with the whole "Im the sexiest thing alive" air about it. I do find it interesting that the other members will be writing it. I think Gackt is burnt out with writing...

Ok, so Im starting to think that Yellow Fried Chickenz is now a side project and not just a goofy thing Gackt is doing. They are releasing a single under the name apparently called The End of the Day. Hmm, I dont really know what to think of it. It sounds like a goofy thing when they do stuff...

Gackt really has never tried to pull away from visual kei, he has always said he is a visual artist, especially with his most recent tour before YFC

I agree with the Kamijo straining his voice thing. I still think on Jubilee, he wasnt straining it, but every since Philia and Destiny the Lovers, he has been trying to sing to high and add too much vibrato while going high. It just doesnt work for him and like others have said, in Holy Grail...
