Haha. I don't listen to it at all. But it's there. I can't find it within to delete that part of childhood.

So no one likes Toto? I'm alone in this?

 Re: Guilty Pleasures
I think some people also get turned off by the fangirl squeeing ('omg Miyavi/whoever is soooo hot EEEE'), clearly something that girls squeal over can't be taken seriously.
I find the fashion somewhat entertaining (hell yes I went to Harajuku when I was in Japan and snapped pictures of the crazy costumed kids) but the music hasn't really interested me much.
@Disco - Shin-chan likes Toto. You're in good company.

 Re: Guilty Pleasures
The fact that you call them "A7X" is reason enough to maim you.

The Beatles..?
But yeah, I see where you're coming from. I'm more into Angura kei like Cali-Gari and Guniw Tools than the typical visual kei repertoire.

 Re: Guilty Pleasures
I feel bad these days for putting Brand New in a "guilty pleasures" thread a ways back, they're one of my absolute favorite bands nowadays: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXcA4dhWAEY

 Re: Guilty Pleasures
I was listening to them yesterday. I only know one song, and it's fucking great: Jesus Christ. I'll have to check out the one you posted later.

 Re: Guilty Pleasures
The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot is goddamn top tier sad ballad music. The song I posted up above is one of their scrapped demos from Fight Off Your Demons, which hasn't been released. Neither has this other amazing song about his Grandpa who passed away called Missing You: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPVa0MxVukMThey're one of the most passionate bands I know, and their live performance is incredible. They can be a little sloppy on some aspects of the performance (but nowhere near unforgivably so), but the energy and feeling is incredible. My favorite Brand New song is probably Archers, the whole album it's on (The Devil and God Are Raging Inside of Me, which Jesus Christ is also on, Rockman!) is top notch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKZkkBFCceY
