any visual kei heads on the RGT?

for those unaware of the genra its basically japanese dudes making cool Castlevania music and dressing as gay as humanly possible but still managing to pull more tail than any of us ever will. Personally my tastes are pretty vanilla I like Malice Mizer and some of Moi dix Mois what about you fellas? do we like the Dracula music or no?

I've literally never commented on here before now despite using this site quite often but I do indeed like Visual Kei and have a similar level of interest where I mostly just listen to Malice Mizer and a few other bands like NIghtmare or Luna Sea.

Always will be a fan of Malice Mizer, late 90's/early 2000's Dir En Grey, and Luna Sea

I don't listen to a whole lot of them with the exception of Versailles, X-Japan and L'Arc-en-Ciel(mainly because of anime lol). Never listened to Malice Mizer before, might have to now.

Dir En Grey leans a little to much into the hevy metal side of things for my liking but they're visual style is awesome its very edgy in a fun way

Yes since the early 2000s I was into many v-kei bands, these days I listen to a handful. Some of my favorite back then were Psycho le Cému, X JAPAN, the GazettE, 雅—miyavi—, ギルガメッシュ, D’espairsRay, 12012. These days I still listen to Phantasmagoia, 蜉蝣, UnsraW and regularly keep up with DIR EN GREY, and ムック.

We have similar thread topics below:

Visual Kei/V系

I'm still very into the music after some time, and I thought it should probably have its own thread I guess. Post PVs, thoughts, etc. I've always been very into all kinds of games, but I started paying far more attention to visual bands in the last few years, it's still like a new world to me...

Visual Kei isn't really my thing but I enjoy a few bands who are adjacent to the style.

There's one band I really like but since they were fond of displaying the so called windmill of friendship as a shock value marketing tactic I won't showcase them here.

 

[Ikagura Ikagura]

My personal favourite from them

I've been going through a deep Nagoya Kei binge, trying to find more in that Luna Sea style. Has been really fun.

Also really into Aicle. and Oshare Kei.

Me,
back then I even used to be vocalist
but as I live in tropic, we are rarely dressed v-kei, because it's dang hot here : ))

and this is one of newer band I like

my favorite are Gackt and Lunasea
I'm lucky can change my voice a bit, and I could copy their voice and vocal technique for some small degree.
but these two aint V-Kei anymore since eons ago,

other one is versailess, but I don't like the voice.
of course I'm also fan of X-Japan back then

Lolita 23Q is my one love
But only with Sou, the newest vocalist is s**t.
