S.K.I.N. - YOSHIKI, Gackt, SUGIZO, Miyavi

[twilighthush]

Is anyone here a fan of this superband or going to Anime Expo to see them? Just wondering.

[laruku]

I would be.. Once I get my freaking hands on some of their MUSIC!!! And obviously i'm not going to cali for the anime expo!!!

BOOHOOOOOOO


For those who have no idea what the hell we are talking about.. here is S.K.I.N's wiki: CLICKIE (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_(Japanese_band))

JLo should hear about this krystal.. He has a fetish for Miyavi!!! hahahhah.. i kid.

[sophie1320]

I've heard of them!!!! (since I'm kinda a Miyavi fan ^^)
Anyhow, it's a shame that they only are going to the states. Hope that they can come to Canada and perform soon!!

[qinshihuang]

i've been anticipating this for quite a while. that is definitely quite a who's-who of jrock. in my experience these things usually don't amount to anything spectacular, but as long as YOSHIKI is involved, i'm optimistic for masterpieces.

[laruku]

^ i kinda agree with qinshihuang.. I'm anticipating yet a bit skeptical about the whole thing.

The thing about Yoshiki.. He's a bit unstable since Hide died... Like.. GLOBE?????? omg.

[kirasuran]

oooh! my friend who is a super miyavi admirer (hes a guy) told me all about this! !! i myself dont mind miyavi just his singing is...horrible. but his guitar is MASTERFUL!

im lookin forward to hearing this new stuff!

oh and reene...hyde died? actually i have no idea about him, i jus know there is/was a jap star named hyde......

edit--> i jus wiki-ed it ! hes not dead what are you on abouuut? im confused!!! also found out something random..

-Rumor has it that he is as tall as one hundred and fifty-six centimeters (WTFF?????? )

-Hyde cooks curry once a year (how amazing)

that really is trivia..

[laruku]

HYDE IS NOT DEAD!!!!!!!!!

I said hide. Not Hyde. Like omg. You can say anyone is dead for all I care except Hyde & Yoshiki & Gackt..

PAIN POINTS!

:nunchuks:

[twilighthush]

... *facepalms. Really, really hard.* Oh dear.

[kirasuran]

oh ok that would explaing somtehing.

but it also said his name is spelt 'hide' ...and 'hyde'

im still confused. well i know HYDE isnt dead, so who is hide?

oh and wahts pain points?

[Jie_Lun_Rox]

I like Gackt and Miyavi! Not really crazy though.. but Gackt.. HOTTIE!! Miyavi is too skinny and has too many tattoos lol.

[-vIt-]

HYDE IS NOT DEAD!!!!!!!!!
I said hide. Not Hyde. Like omg. You can say anyone is dead for all I care except Hyde & Yoshiki & Gackt..
PAIN POINTS!

xDDD Funny!!!

I can't imagine .. if hyde died .. :cry: -----:sealed:

This is my first time hearing about this group. I really want to hear what they'd sound like. It'd be a really exciting mixture!!!

let me find clips on youtube :bleh:
*so exciting*

but it also said his name is spelt 'hide' ...and 'hyde'

im still confused. well i know HYDE isnt dead, so who is hide?
hide (Hideto Matsumoto) is an ex- X Japan member. He died in 1998.

*sighs*

Please read properly..

(Pronounced in Japanese: Hai-do, or in English as "Hide"

Pronounced.

hide (with a small cap h) is the lead guitarist for the legendary Visual Kei band X Japan. He passed away when he got hung from a towel hooked on his bathroom doorknob.

hyde is the lead vocalist for l'arc-en-ciel.

enough anyway. i doubt anyone here has heard the concert songs. but those (if any) who have, wdyt about it?

[-vIt-]

youtube links:

song 1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PKrWiPGSso&mode=related&search=)
song 3 with sugizo's violin (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uHLhRURVfU&mode=related&search=)

Of course, it's recorded by the fans. There's still no official video of the concert. I haven't finished watching them -- i can't stand the screaming.. but these are the OK ones.

[laruku]

TELL ME ABOUT THOSE stupid screaming fans..

I feel like stabbing them so they'd shut up. I can't hear a freaking thing!!!

[-vIt-]

I thought song 3 was ok. The screaming wasn't that bad, towards the middle.
They learnt to shut up.

It's better than all the other videos.

Just think about it as a "preview", before they release their album/ available for download.

[kirasuran]

ok im sorry my noobness has caused any laughter/forehead slapping.

so...would you be screaminig too if you were there? if not screaming for the band, you'd be screaming at everyone else to shut up, i know i would !

[Cielfairy]

LOL! How old is Yoshiki? He looks the same as back in the days with XJapan. Yoshiki is so hot! If only S.K.I.N had both Hyde and Gackt in the band. Wow, lots of Fan Service there! hoo hoo! Can you imagine? Yoshiki, Hyde, Miyavi and Gackt together? Why not Hyde can also play bass and guitar and take turns on the lead vocals with Gackt.

[ekyec]

hmm...when are they releasing music officially?
are they all putting their solo careers on hold, or is this a temporary side thing.

apparently they wanna break into the english market. ...i'm not too sure how well that would work.

[Cielfairy]

I think it should work out just fine! They're all talented and well known and their overseas fans (here here!) have been waiting for so long now to be able to have access to their music and artistic exposure. Most of us can't afford to visit Japan and go to one of their concerts, so if they intend to break in to the U.S. Market that's great I hope they do! It's cheaper for me to go to the U.S. for one of their concerts. So I really hope that what you said is true ekyec! Regarding your question I really don't know, but I guess it's a side thing since they're all pretty serious about their own careers. But I'm also asuming and hoping here so don't take my words so seriously.
