Ba.尸妖 (SHIYAO)
Dr.音烏 (neo)
let’s fucking GO!!!
Interesting. Will keep an eye on these guys. I do wonder if this will become more of a “thing” in the future as i remember talking to a guy who used to be involved in vkei who was saying he really liked the visual aspect but didnt really like playing “music for girls” and he was looking to form a black metal band. So maybe BlackKei will be another vk subgenre one day. At least a solidified one.
Black metal is just vk without heat and color. I’m surprised Hokkaido isn’t full of black metal bands.
Oh that’s where Yosuke went. I’m down. Let’s see how evil ya’ll can get.
Black Metal/Blackened Deathcore apparently.
Finally Yosuke has found a decent vocalist. Natsu did this so I’m sure EUPHOBIA will be great.
Color me curiously interested.
I hope they’ll roll out their music as quickly as possible so all the speculation about any potential vk/black metal fusions and blackkeis will end as quickly as possible when it just turns out to be metalcore tbh.
It’ll be metalcore/deathcore with a couple of stereotypically norse bm techniques and potentially synth latched on top. There’s a precedent for it already in the west
they reached 1000 twitter followers on their first day! to celebrate, they have opened their official website and Youtube channel!
I mean, it says “blackened deathcore” on their insta
idc i’m still hyped, but i’ll reserve my judgment till i actually hear something.
It’s something different potentially and I’m looking forward to it too
It’s always “blackened deathcore”. Every time a VK band is like ooooh we’re VK black metal, it’s always blackened deathcore. Except for like, Dark Insanity?
It’s all poseurs all the way down!!
they will begin their 3-month consecutive digital single release campaign soon
2025年6月:1st single【INSOMNIA】
2025年7月:2nd single【FROSTBITE】
2025年8月:3rd single【WILL】
Lmao
Why is Kai in that list? 
Why did these guys just not name thenselves Kai Schumacher if Euphobia is already well used? 
they’re kinda giving munimuni feat abby brown looks wise
on a side note, have 9th in pluto disbanded, or just a member left that band?
They’re still active! (according to vk.gy)
