Tag: 🎵 ラウド系 (Loud Kei)
Nu Metal has been increasing in popularity worldwide, including in Japan. While お洒落系 (Osare Kei) and コテオサ系 (Koteosa Kei) still hold the title of having the most artists active in their respective genres, there has been a significant increase in artists and bands who desire a more Metal-type of sound in their works.
If you can categorize an artist or band under the Heavy Metal category, but with the androgynous and flamboyant visual aspect of ヴィジュアル系 (Visual Kei), you have the main ingredients required for a ラウド系 (Loud Kei) band!

Nellfin // Showcasing the world like you’ve Never Seen
Nellfin are a ヴィジュアル系 (Visual Kei) band from the 名古屋 (Nagoya) Prefecture, but we’re pretty sure that you haven’t heard much about them just yet. And if you have, well, then we hope to be able to tell you a little more about this duo and their music.

摩天楼オペラ (Matenrou Opera) announces worldwide merchandise collaboration with FAKE STAR USA
You might have seen this small notification slide by on Twitter already, but in case you haven’t…
Do you remember the interview I did with the members of 摩天楼オペラ (Matenrou Opera) in late January of this year?

響 (Hibiki) // “I want to play an active part in all kinds of genres, not just metal.”
Even though it has been a hot minute since I was able to ask all members of 摩天楼オペラ (Matenrou Opera) a long list of questions about the band and their activities as individual members, there was one thing that wasn’t sitting right with me. Because most of you will recognize 響 (Hibiki) as the drummer of 摩天楼オペラ
摩天楼オペラ (Matenrou Opera) // A fleeting hymn of love
I’m sure that most people by now have heard of 摩天楼オペラ (Matenrou Opera) as a band, but in the recent years I have seen their overseas activity get less and less. Yet there was a lot going on in the world of the band. Not only have they gone independent last year, they’ve also lost their guitarist,

Cazqui already made some waves as the lead guitarist of NOCTURNAL BLOODLUST, but due to some events behind the scenes both Cazqui and the other guitarist Daichi ended up leaving the group.
These events are personal between the members, and even though some of it has leaked onto the internet here and there
Rumbless. // A “catastrophe.” for a business card
For this interview I spoke with vocalist Roku, guitarist Takaki, bassist Sin and drummer Tva, four guys who form “Rumbless.” together. Rumbless. combines metal with J-Pop and elements of ヴィジュアル系 (Visual Kei) to create their unique signature sound. And even though they’re still a relatively young
Rumbless. // Σ-sigma-: Layer the colors as you like
Rumbless. is still a relative newcomer in the ヴィジュアル系 (Visual Kei) scene, but vocalist Roku has been in other projects (like “Project zero”, “Re;zero”, “End;Re” and “Sith”) prior to Rumbless. Despite being rather new to the scene, Roku, Takaki, Sin and Tva have a very good image of what they want. They
エンヴィル (ENVYL) // The musical combination of Angels and Demons
Maybe you’ve heard of エンヴィル (ENVYL) already, considering they showed up in the ヴィジュアル系 (Visual Kei) scene immediately once their music video for “D.I.D” hit their YouTube channel, combining metal, programming and ヴィジュアル系 (Visual Kei) in one package with their version of light
