Was a kpop group as well. Ladies Code, 2 out of the 5 members died from a van crash.

I remember that there was a pic that had a shadow of someone against the white of the van and everyone said it was a spirit of one of the girls.
Probably you had band Yoidore on your mind. They had similar car accident.

There was also Aikaryu, but i donât think anyone died. Just severe injury resulting in pause/disbandment.

To me itâs probably bands disbanding without any clear and justified reason. Like band member ditching the band without proper explanation, and even years after itâs still unclear what happened.
That time when I tried to find out why Viored had disbanded, and read somewhere that it was due to the vocalist Kei not showing up for a live due to personal reasons (I think someone posted on LJ back then it was due to his girlfriend making him quit or whatever). Which is disappointing af because I love that band.
Whatever the rumors are itâs disappointing when youâre not given any explanation.
Another one that makes me sad is how Sora (ex Aurora/Gechena vocalist) seems to have killed his career. I can still see him posting in Twitter but Iâm not sure whatâs he doing these days because he never writes anything substantial. Seems like he turned into a vocal trainer but otherwise doesnât have anything to do with music much. So disappointing because again he had potential but ever since Aurora and Gechena there was nothing notable. I would love it if by some miracle they could be revived.
And of course I am sad about hearing no more from Yasu (Janne and ABC) and Ryo (Baroque/KANNIVALISM). Itâs just so frustrating when people quit the scene and disappear into the void, with all respect due to wanting privacy and everything. But I wish VK didnât have to be so much about public image.

IIRC Aikaryuâs injuries were: Kaworu got some bruises and a bumped head, Daiki got nasty bone bruises and spent some time in the hospital, Teru got some bruises and stuff went home in a day or so, Shagrath and their roadie cracked their skulls but both are fine now, and Uli broke both legs⊠which is what lead to the band ending since he was a founding member and their drummer. It was so tragic to see one of my fav bands come to an end like that, but Iâm so thankful no one died and they still managed a last tour.

Probably the fact that Gackt contracted a vocal condition and it got so bad that he wasnât able to sing anymore. I find it a shame because his voice was so beautiful, but not everyone is able to continue with their career.

If he really has somewhat recovered, I expect thereâll be a comeback single soon.

someone said it was produced by Prince and now Iâm feeling double sad 
This would have been a masterpiece
Plus, Kanzaki is a killer performer. I can listen to RIBBONâs âBeautiful & Resistanceâ all day.

I donât want to be premature, but I think this is playing out all over again. History doesnât repeat itself, but it often rhymes.
Whatâs going on here is classic 4 panel Gru memes. Yoshiki forms THE LAST ROCKSTARS to release music because X JAPAN has been struggling with various issues and canât get an album out. Yoshiki announces a brief tour of the new unit and actually releases a single So You Know Theyâre Serious This Time. Yoshiki announces a new X JAPAN single. Yoshiki announces a new X JAPAN single.
I was expecting TLRS to be his one and only focus, because even though he hasnât given a reason (or rather, reasons) behind why X JAPAN struggles to accomplish much of anything, he seems to yearn for the limelight, so I figured the super band the second time around would actually stick together. Itâs 3/4 of the same member, subbing in Hyde for Gackt, so itâs rather comparable. The memes are funny but the situation concerning X JAPAN is not.
Yoshiki aims to wear his âGrandfather of Visual Keiâ badge to the grave. I donât blame him, but, like, can you form a band that can release an album on the sunny side of 2000? We were in this position before, where you had to choose between resurrecting X JAPAN or pursuing S.K.I.N., and X won and look at how much X have accomplished since 2007. There is very little fanfare or excitement for the ânew X singleâ, which is shaping up to be another Yoshiki ballad, and unclear why it couldnât be a TLRS song instead. Are we choosing X over TLRS again? That would be a bad, bad move.
X is dead. Long live X. TLRS is now. Long live TLRS.

I always thought Kyoâs gf going missing and turning up at his band members place having gome behind his back is pretty sad.

I think it is sad, that DâespairsRay did not come back after Hizumiâs vocal condition got better. As far as I know all 4 members are still active in the scene. I wonder if they had a falling out 
Never heard about this!
He cannot sing Dâespairsray songs anymore, he adapts his voice for his New band.
I think their songs sound very Despa-ish o.o Despa could have made these songs as well. A lot of bands change their sound over time.
In my opinion, it only sound like Dâespairsray on the surface. Those songs are totally forgettable, unlike Dâ,esp. I think NUL. will never produce something as impactful as Coll:set.
But, I was talking about the way he sings, he sings differently in Dâespairsray, there was an interview where Hizumi explain it
