B7KLAN J-Rock Fest (Visual Kei festival) in Paris will be held (10 bands, July 11-12)

I think there are a lot of really promising choices for bands to fill in the other 8 so I wouldn’t know where to start for actual, likely guesses; but I think if at least 4 of the following bands are on the list, I’ll be going:

  1. D’espairsRay
  2. lynch.
  3. 摩天楼オペラ
  4. XANVALA
  5. ACME/DIV
  6. DAVID/SUI
  7. NoGoD
  8. Moi dix Mois

And frankly if they somehow get Versailles to perform I don’t care who else is going I’ll fly across the Atlantic just for them

Versailles would be surprising if they got but good. I was just thinking about them

Funny I had DADAROMA on my “ideal, delulu” list before I remembered Fukuro exists. I don’t really care for that project so they wouldn’t be a draw for me personally/unfortunately. But DDRM or THE MADNA on the other hand.

I swapped out Razor for Damned I forgot they were gaining traction for a moment :sweat_smile:

THE MADNA were/are in talk with both Killing Daze and RIT to perform abroad, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see them either. Damn, so many bands, so little spots left.

Why is everyone saying Diru, I don’t think they’ll do a festival unless it’s a major one like Download Fest. As far as headliners go, im guessing MUCC, DespairsRay, and Moi Dix Moix.

I think Yoshiatsu will pull double duty and both DRUGS and Fukuro will be there.

You are correct. They were willing to do sick new world. As an American I was hyped then sad. They will only do large metal festivals.

I think some people just put it out because the venue is so dang big that they need to book a major band to fill it up.

Definitely not lynch., they never do anything outside Japan.

Not DEG either, they rarely do anything with VK bands.

GazettE - obviously not.

Kizu would be interesting but unlikely.

Probably some shit like Deviloof.

DAMNED likely.

Dexcore possibly.

Arelquin possibly.

DEZERT possibly.

D’espairsRay… I’m going to go out on a limb and say yes?

I thought that would be the most obvious, the guy is doing the announcement with their poster behind :joy:

They just concluded their EU Tour last month. While it’s still possible, wouldn’t it be better to have new names to sell out those 7000 tickets? That being said JILUKA were here not too long ago as well, so who knows lmao

At this point I hope they won’t announce any of the very few bands I just could not miss.

The timing of the festival is really bad for me and it would be very stressful to plan this trip and to be there in time. And there will also be high costs.

Nightmare could be one of them!

Nightmare will probably rest up next year. I predict they’ll have a small tour in spring to promote the new single and then they’ll surely work on putting a new album together by fall.

Don’t see them gettting into a plane to France to play for a day.

Third band is Kizu!!! So maybe they’re not doing this by popularity order lmao

Meaning Kizu is less popular than Jiluka? Or that Kizu is so popular we expected it to be higher up? Just asking, either way pretty exciting. Love Kizu
