① I'll try to bang this one out quickly. Brand X just posted news of two new Phantasmagoria live DVDs. Both will be fairly huge and haven't been filmed yet! Information to follow.
② But before the Phantasmagoria live DVDs are released, a brand new UNDER CODE omnibus will be put on the market. This isn't a normal omnibus though--it's a tribute album. It features all of the UNDER CODE bands (and a few bands that are friendly with the label) covering Phantasmagoria songs. Sweet.

The omnibus sounds cool. I'll definatly be looking for that. I wonder how much more Kisaki is going to ego-milk this baby? Cause it's getting a teeny-tiny bit crazy.

Must get tribute. D:
I'm sad Pashya isn't contributing to the omnibus tribute. I think they'd do a fantastic cover of Eternal Silence...

Wow, I'm definitely going to have to purchase the omnibus. Some of the choices are a bit amusing though. Hearing Dali doing "mikansei to guilt" should be interesting. Then Vagerke covering "NEVER REBELLION" songs will be completely different I think, and I'm sure that the guitars will be turned up and most of the synths dropped. Those guys are all sorts of awesome.
Hurts' I think will have the easiest time, simply because Hina is really good at changing his voice and adapting. Then I think that Nega's will be the most amusing simply because of Jin's voice. I've already chuckled to myself a few times with the thought of their cover.

Yeah, it looks fucking awesome. I can't wait to hear how Kibouya does things (I hope they actually utilize Mr. Second Vocalist), and Doremidan's version of Kami Uta should be interesting too. For some reason I couldn't help laughing when I saw that Dali is covering Mikansei to GUILT, but I'm not sure if that was a valid emotion or just me being stupid.
It better be! And hopefully there won't be any dumbass super-awesome privileges at every store (but because I said that, there will be--yay~).

Thank you very much! I'll add it now. And that's pretty awesome! Just one live would be good enough, but that's even cooler.

The Crystal Finale extra DVD will be the 80 minute performance of the first live after Kisaki announced his retirement, the 7.14 show (-LAST LETTERS-) at Nagano Sun Plaza. The Eclipse of Myth extra DVD will include the 60 minute free live in Tokyo (TOKYO REQUIEM) that is on August 28th. (If you wanted to add that XD I read your above comments)
I'll be at all of these (well.. the ones to come. I didn't go to the 7.14 one XD) so I'm excited for these DVDs!
I also look forward to hearing what these other bands do with Phantasmagoria's music!

Oh oh, yeah, I guess I left that part out. Like, the bonus DVD is [probably low quality] footage from other shows or something? I can't translate it exactly, so I thought it was best to not give the wrong information. No clue if you know any Japanese, but if you want to give it a try: http://www.brand-x.jp/product/2294 and http://www.brand-x.jp/product/2295
That is a surprisingly good way to put it. I feel exactly the same, I'm just not sure I could articulate it. It's probably too optimistic to expect that all of the artists will re-invent their songs, but I really hope most of them take the time to think about it rather than just hammering out a cover. I'll cross my fingers!

Yeah, that's the only thing. KISAKI always floods the market and shit xD
That's his style of marketing, which makes us, the fans, cry as we find another black hole in our wallet where our money gets sucked out. I'm curious as to why it's called a "bonus live DVD," 'cause the DVD itself is already a live.. Unless they're going to include footage from the previous shows.
turn a hard song into a ballad or something
I will love that band if they do that.. And they do it well. Because using a different artistic standpoint makes it more creative and fun to listen to so you won't think, "Yeah, same song, same tune, just sung by a different vocalist..."

Yeah, that's the only thing. KISAKI always floods the market and shit xD; We need time to rest! But yeah, I mean it's sort of four DVDs, so it has to be worth it.
Yeah, covers are always cool. And the description of the omnibus specifically mentions that they're not just rerecordings, but that each band takes their song from another approach. I'm really hoping at least one person will do something drastic like turn a hard song into a ballad or something. It will be really cool to see how they redo them.

I think they will ship everywhere, but you have to use a special form of payment. It's probably best for you to wait until CDJapan lists it~

I have no doubts about the production values at all (Although if this one comes out poor, I'd be a very dissappointed girl who spent a shit load of money on it them). But I highly doubt that will happen. Two DVDs seem a bit over the top though.. Two of them.. At the same time. My wallet will be crying by the end of this year and I'll be lucky if I don't fall into bankrupty.
The tribute sounds exciting though. I love it when bands do cover songs.

You can buy it now if you want to: Brand X. If you can only purchase from CDJapan or something, I'm sure it will be listed there soon.

Yeah, the prices are good, but that doesn't make them any easier to swallow. I'm sure the production values will be good at least (would KISAKI really spare any expense at that sort of live?)
Yeah, I think it's a great idea.
