it seems they will go on hiatus/disband ? after that live … [https://twitter.com/ARTiCLEAR\_BAND/status/1622143001387765760](https://twitter.com/ARTiCLEAR_BAND/status/1622143001387765760) ---

it looks like it’s only a temporary pause of live activities due to Gt.Makoto being promoted at his job and therefore makes participation in the band difficult. He considered leaving at first but the band couldn’t continue activities without him so he decided to take a pause in performing instead. ---

I guess that’s not so bad. Also, I like how they’re transparent about it, haha. Hopefully it won’t hinder their once-a-year release schedule too much. 😅 ---

These guys don’t seem to play live much and it seems like a side-SIDE project for the members’ real jobs (they all have mostly respectable haircuts now?) so hope its not a big change/loss for them ---

I am with mixed feelings about this. Jumping for joy band is back together, without Len, but Jin quit TBS because he had “no strength to keep making music” and whatever. I really don’t want same members and same idea to crash down the same way. Plus, I’ve never been able to understand completely the idea behind this band. They say one thing with their music and explain something completely different. ---

I honestly believe the band itself is just a side thing for the members. I feel like it’s a hobbie they enjoy if they don’t play live much and they don’t got that much releases since activities started. 5 releases in 5 years isn’t a lot for a vkei band but that nega revival is something O-o ---

I also never liked borrowing. Or otherway said, stealing. As Nega they used to copy Gazette. In Gouyoku no suisou they literally steal from AC/DC - Thunderstruck. Thing is I see this a lot in japanese bands and I am not happy with it. Go big or go home they say. Jin is insane talent but there’s no honor in not being musical educated (he said himself he have no clue of music knolledge), or using already written chords and getting credits for it. ---

Haha you mean like most regular bands then? Unless youre super mega successful most bands do the band as a hobby alongside a day job. ---

You can take music seriously, not like a ’ hobby ', and still be a musician who needs to have another job to earn money. ---

Where’s the honor in stealing someone else’s work, hobby or not? I thought japanese are honorable people, all the good manners and respect, or it’s outside “hobby” stuff? ---
