Today I showed my mom and sis the music videos for "Knives and Pens" and "The Legacy," since since they love the songs but hadn't seen the videos. "The Legacy" looks AMAZING on a large flatscreen TV, ZOMG.





And then FB actually did something useful and let me know that today is the 5th anniversary of BVB's "We Stitch These Wounds." Lovely timing!

This has been out for three weeks, and I just discovered it now. *sigh* So much new music, so little time!

OH. MAH. GAWD. This song has blown me away. Teru, I'm in love with your guitar solo, and ZIN, I wantz your eyelashes NOW. Hizaki, I want to steal your entire wardrobe, as always. Excuse me while I listen to this on loop forever.

And here I'm already fangirling over Within Temptation's "HYDRA", which just came in the mail this week. I don't know what's more awesome, listening to their original songs, or their covers. Literally, I cannot fathom the awesomeness that is this band, even if they are my favorite of favorites. :)

Speaking of favorites, I'm going to make lyric videos of "Let Us Burn" and the "Radioactive" cover. We'll see how long that takes.

Now, off I go to write. I'm really, really intimidated right now, since I fear my WIP will need major restructuring into a trilogy (did I say that already?), but at this point, I want it done. Even if it's crap, I wanted it to be finished crap, rather than unfinished crap.

Don't mind me, or my bucket of tears, I'll just be sitting here sobbing. Love the song, but the video and story behind it is a little more than I can deal with right now.

Whee, I've been obsessed with GACKT for 3 crazy years now, thanks to this song! (If any of you do not know who that is, just rest assured he's a ridiculously talented moron that ruins your life while inspiring you at the same time.)

I'm still in shock that Mana and Kamijo collaborated. Not that I thought they never would--it's just something that never occurred to me. But I'm glad it's happened. Never, ever going to get tired of this style of Visual Kei. NEVER!

This goth J-rock fan has no words. BRB, flailing.

This song is disturbing on so many levels, but it's just so good. Me, my brothers, and my mom were all headbanging in unison driving home this evening (except the bro who was driving). LOL, it was pretty funny. And we definitely needed a break.

I can't begin to say how glad I am to be addicted to J-rock. <3

Can EPICA possible grow more awesome?
