I wonder why too. I assume it may have to do with D.I.D but its hard to tell. I know issei is an asshole personality wise and has been in the vkei scene for a while but its hard to tell what led him to believe what he believes its not really confirmed.
That a little on the older side for a vkei band member. I assume he may not return but then again you cant always assume these things cuz he does have mental problems. I hope he recovers.
I remember he was having back problems and thatās what people in their late 30s start having. Also he started para noir in 2012 and wasnāt talking about being fresh out of school.
isnāt he bitching about how expensive it is to be a bandman? and that the live norma is just stupid? and difficult for bands who arenāt popular?
A I read again with PCā¦ I get him.
I think he got mad at the current āHostā system in the vkei world.
He opens with āYoung bandman donāt need to readā [But personally, its exactly how most young bandman are nowadays.]
Just that people hold open their hands for money begging their fans for money to exist.
Bandman who only have eyes for Money.
He also says. that fans need to work like 3 hours to buy a ticket for like 3000yen and that they only see a band for like 30min and then even being ābeggedā to buy also Merch after the gig.
Also he says, you all say you hate ABE and that his system is only about money money money.
But what are you doing yourself? The sameā¦ only open your hands for fast and easy money.
I donāt know to who exactly he is pointing. but I think to someone who he once had a contract with.
I also think itās the case of; going in contract with a label or so or with someone.
Then they expect you to be famous within an amount of time, if you fail, you can GTFO and try to take everything from you in some cases as well.
But it actually doesnāt really expose anything new.
He didnāt go into real detail at all.
From what I think is that AKANE is just finished in the vkei music world or even in the music world. Maybe not because he wanted it, but that some 'higherup power "makes it difficult for him to return in the way he want it.
After readiing his note after a while againā¦ the only think I can say.
I guess Akane was a fair guy, not caring about money, but really had a heart for music.
To bad heās gone.
I think him being done with the Vkei world will turn out to be a good thing in the long run. If he ever does take up music again maybe he could do it how Issei does. (I think I read somewhere that Nazare recorded Jingai in his apartment. )
Were there any interesting stories happening around this recording?
Issei: I usually canāt do the back up vocals, but I did them only for the recording.
Uta: The place where we recorded was interesting.
Issei: We recorded everything at my house, so from noon we were shouting and stuff. I live in a regular apartment. (laughs)
Iāve talked with him last time like 2 years ago and he seemed to be really well! Not doing music, but fine.
He was like āwhen u come to Tokyo let me know so we can drive around while listening metal really loudā
