Just wanna make sure that everyone has access to these tracks if they wanna listen. This is my former band, before joining the new one. We are searching for our name right now. I am the vocalist, RIO.

There has never been a time that this foolish dream wasn't the very core of my being. Not even as a child did I ever want to be anything else. Giving up that dream will mean giving up the central part of what I am as a person.

Giving it up is killing who I am. Without that dream, I have no idea who I am.

Close enough!

I just realized that I keep forgetting to mention this. I have one. I blog about my band and The GazettE. A LOT. XD;;

After the live in Nagoya, tensions between Aoi and Ruki com to a boil.

We're pretty much settled on the theme for our wedding. It's going to be Shin makoku from Kyo Kara maoh.

I'm so glad that we're able to be married in my home state.

I miss this hair. It's not my favorite style, but I like the color.

Living situation is er...Situated. Playing Lestat again for shiggles. I haven't slept in 24 hours, and I can barely English let alone French. I am probably saying retarded shit and not even catching it. Ffff. I need sleep so bad

But that can't happen until we finish packing and loading stuff up. All of that fun crap. Wish me luck.

This sucks, but I'm almost hyper-charged rather than scared. I know the streets of Des Moines, and I can survive there. We'll be back on our feet before too long, even if we're starving a little. I know how to be hungry, too.

We'll have just enough money to get us there, and just enough time to get the first possible jobs we can get our hands on.

It's going to be insane, and we're going to be living out of our car like a certain band in their early days, but that's fine with me.

We've got the strength. We can do this.

Alright! So I've tackled the first of several new bands I want to give a listen. I did some research, and this band has at least three different names that their fans use. To make things easy, I'm going to try to stick with ACE.

To start with, their style is fascinating and unique. They're Visual Kei pirates. Their sound carries these wonderful high-arching organs as well as driven guitar riffs. If I had to compare their sound to anyone else's, I'd be hard pressed to-- save for the fact that I'm a big fan of Fest Vainqueur. The vocalist, Nimo has a similar sound to Hal's, but his stage presence is a bit more robust. I would also compare them to Versailles for some of the same reasons.

Their song God Child is the one that really hooked me. It's got a great catchy hook, and the vocals layer perfectly over the guitar's heavy riff.

I'd definitely recommend them to people who already know a little bit about Visual Kei already. It might be a little bit difficult for people to "get" if they're new to the genre.
