OOMPH! APPRECIATION POST

Hello :B
 This week I was talking to a friend of mine (who run a blog too. In Portuguese, but she'll make another one with the same stuff in English) and she said someone on Twitter said something like "Oomph! is better than Rammtein" and I've never heard about nothing them before, so I just HAD to listen to them. XD

Oomph is a German band formed in Wolfsburg in 1989 and incorporates many styles of music such as metal, industrial, alternative rock, electronica and gothic. They released their first album on Jor's Machinery label, then releasing their consecutive albums on its sister label Dynamica. They stayed with Jor, until his labels disappeared during the acquisition by Sanctuary Records at around 1996/1997.It was Virgin Schallplatten where OOMPH! finally signed. Between 1998 and 2001 they released three albums on the Virgin label, Unrein in 1998, which would become their debut album on the Media Control Charts peaking at #37 and the Austrian top 40 at #38. Unrein became their debut single.
 In 2004, OOMPH! released their first single "Augen Auf!" on a new label, this time on Supersonic Records, part of the Sony BMG group of music companies and it's part of FIFA 2005 soundtrack.In June 2004, Oomph! played Two major European music Festivals. The Dynamo Open Air Festival, in the Netherlands and the Graspop Metal Meeting in Belgium. On July 6, 2007 Oomph! would open for Metallica in Vienna, Austria.
 OOMPH!'s first DVD was Rohstoff, which contains live footage consisting of 23 songs, most of the videos the band has created, making-of videos, and an exclusive interview. The DVD was released on July 20, 2007.
 A new song called "Wach Auf!" appeared in the movie Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem.
 Oomph! released their 10th album Monster, on August 22, 2008 and opened for Marilyn Manson on June 24, 2009 in Linz, Austria. The band's 11th studio album is slated for 2011. The title is as yet unnanounced. The album is supposed to be highly experimental. (Dero will be rapping for the first time and also singing operatically.)

XOVER APPRECIATION POST

Hey guys :B

 So, on this post I said something about XOVER, and I started listening to it like there's no tomorrow LOL but I didn't find so much information about it. :(

 Basically, XOVER is a duo formed by Shaura and Kouichi (ex-Laputa) in 2009, and marked Shaura's return  to music (after changing his name). They released a mini-album called XGATE in July 22 and an album titled AUREOLA in October 21, but, after releasing a live DVD in November 2009, XOVER disbanded.

 Yeah, I took this from wikipedia. u.ú

 By the way, they have an official Myspace profile.

That's it, I hope you like it :B

VERSAILLES APPRECIATION POST

Hi o/
 Another awesome japanese band <3
Versailles was formed in 2007 by Kamijo (ex-Lareine), Hizaki (ex- Sulfuric Acid) and Jasmine You (ex- Jakura). Then, Teru (ex- Aikaryu) and Yuki (ex-Suar Trip) joined the band, but the concept was created in 2006 by Kamijo and Hizaki. Before that, Hizaki, Teru and Jasmine played together on HIZAKI grace project. Their frst album was "The Revenant Choir", in 2007, ad, after that, "Noble", in 2008, when they did their first appearances on Europe and on the USA.
 Versailles' japanese record label announced that they've received a notice of an american musician already using this name, so they asked the fans for ideas and, on september, they changed the name of the band (only on the US) to "Versailles - Philharmonic Quintet-". The first song after that was "Prince".In 2009, they released their major debut single: Ascendead Master. On August 3, it was announced that Jasmine would temporarily suspend all musical activities due to unknown circumstances regarding his health and to recover and, on August 9, it was reported on their official site that Jasmine had died. (I cried a lot when I found out). On January 4, Versailles held the "Jasmine You -Memorial Ceremony-" at Shibuya O-East, where themselves, Kaya and Matenrou Opera performed. Their major debut album entitled, Jubilee, was released on January 20, 2010.They also announced a world tour entitled "Methods of Inheritance", which started on February 28, 2010 in Yokohama. Their support bassist for the tour was Masashi, a member of Cosmo and Közi's live band. They went to Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Mexico, Norway, Russia, Finland, England, Spain, France, the Netherlands, Germany and Hungary. On the last concert, they announced that Masashi officially joined the band as their new bassist, with Jasmine You being cited as an "eternal member".

In January 2011, Versailles started starring in their own TV mini drama called Onegai Kanaete Versailles (おねがいかなえてヴェルサイユ, "Fulfill My Wish Versailles"). The theme song for the show was Versailles' single "Philia", which was released on March 15. Furthermore Versailles went on to release their second major studio album, entitled Holy Grail. At the moment, they're having their second World tour. They already went to Taiwan and China and they're going to Russia, England, Spain, Italy, Austria, Poland, Germany, France, Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina and Chile.

VII SENSE APPRECIATION POST

Hey :3
 So I was listening to some songs that I haven't listened to for a loong time (and now I'm like "how the fuck did I spend such a long time without this?" LOL) and I remembered this band ^^

On the beginning ("beginning" means 2002 ^^), Shaura used the stage name "Juka" and was the first singer of Moi Dix Mois (another good band that needs an appreciation post XD). After that, he sang on HIZAKI grace project, Node of Scherzo (a project including the band Versailles and another singer called Kaya). After all that, and his solo career, were over, he began performing live with RayX and Masato. Later, Erina joined them and Shaura and Masato started a project/band/idk called XOVER while the other members continued composing. Meanwhile, KAZ was introduced. On December 28th 2009, they had their pre-debut performance.

THE SLOT APPRECIATION POST

Hello guys :3 How was your weekend?

 Last year I went to a new school and I met that girl who's one of my best friends now and she showed me a lot of good bands (including Rammstein) and mangas and she's kind of responsible for almost every post about metal bands. :B

 By the way, The Slot was formed in 2002 in Moscow and they released their first album (called "Slot 1") in 2003, and the debut video "Odni" was in rotation on MTV  and other TV stations for over 6 months. In 2005 they won the RAMP award for "vocal performance of the year" and the band has been featured on soundtracks for films like "Day Watch", "Pirate", "Boomer" and "Hunting for Piranha".

 On 2006, they released "2 Wars" album and single and won the RAMP award for "song of the year". In 2007, they released the album "Triniti".In 2009, they released the album "4ever" and, in 2010, the first single in English, "Mirrors", was released.

KERLI APPRECIATION POST

Hey

 Today I'll talk about my idol <3 

 Kerli was born in Estonia, in Elba, a town of 5000 people and she didn't have much access to western culture.

When Kerli was 14, she won a Baltic American Idol-style talent competition and, after that, she went to Sweden, and demos she cut there caught the attention of A&R staff at Island Def Jam, which led to a trip to NY and a meeting with Chairman Antonio “L.A.” Reid. SO she moved to NY and, after that, to Los Angeles. Talking of her experience in America, she said “Being here has enabled me to grow as a person. People here really do believe they can become whatever they want to become. I’m definitely a dreamer myself, so I relate to that. In my hometown, the things I’m doing now didn't seem possible, but I kept believing. I still have so far to go, but my experience has shown me that we can go after our dreams.”. In 2010, she made two songs to that Alice In Wonderland movie: Tea Party and Strange (ft. Tokio Hotel)  <3

(Bubble Goth is how she named her style, with all that scary/beautiful things :B)

(Moon children is how she call her fans ❤)
