OSM!

I found this on SR...I want them like something fierce!

Source Music Japan:
As of May 27th, the GazettE's Reita and DEAL DESIGN's Yamashita Satoshi will go into their third round on their collaboration brand "SNAKED LOWS". This time, the collaboration includes a three piece ring set in two patterns, namely "THREE CHORD RING~Gold Coating Model" and "THREE CHORD RING~K18Yellow Gold Model". And while the three rings are made to fit on one finger perfectly, everyone can still enjoy the many arrangement possibilities on different fingers as well.

The names that have been given to the rings have been chosen by Reita himself. The ring, which simply embodies the logo of the collaboration, is the ROGO RING. The slightly edgy golden ring is called BLIND SNAKE RING (There are two versions, one in 925 silver with a gold coating and one made of K18 gold) Eventually there is the HAMMERD RING, which is seems randomly hammered into shape, while sporting the brands core message.

So the rings will go on sale on Reita's Birthday, May 27th and wearing them for the next tour +ll probably have a great appeal.

Inoue Joe

A new obsession, curtesy the Kpop/Jpop battle at Con...thanks Con...-.-


Joe Inoue, born August 30, 1985, is an American rock singer signed to Sony Music Entertainment Japan's label Ki/oon Records. His single "Closer" was used in the fourth opening of Naruto: Shippuden. Although his career is rooted in Japan, Inoue was born and grew up in Los Angeles, California. It was not until middle school that he became interested in music and that eventually led him to start his musical career in 2007.

Band of the Month: VAMPS

(Yes, I stole this pic from SR...)


SO...this month we chose Vamps. It was very hard to decide between them and Matenrou Opera...but they are releasing three things this month. So they won purely by quantity (though we DO love Hyde...just not as much as MO)

BIO:
VAMPS is the name of the band formed by HYDE (L’Arc~en~Ciel) and K.A.Z (Oblivion Dust). HYDE and K.A.Z have been working together on HYDE’s solo work since 2003. After years of collaboration, the two finally decided to form their own band and agreed that there was no better way to announce VAMPS than getting out in front of the fans right away. Their first Nationwide tour of Japan, "VAMPS LIVE 2008", kicked off at Zepp Tokyo. Between August 1, 2008 and October 28, 2008, VAMPS played 46 shows at the prestigious Zepp live houses throughout Japan. The tour was totally organized by VAMPS and the venues were custom decorated by spray art such as the now-famous VAMPS castle. The band played 6 to 10 shows at each Zepp venue and every single show was sold out. The continuous string of sold out shows were unprecedented and had never taken place during any other Zepp live house tour before. Their second single "I Gotta Kick Start Now" was released on March 13, 2009. A new single Evanescent was also featured as a PV. VAMPS Live & Documentary DVD Release! (VAMPS LIVE 2009 U.S.A) 2010.3.17 New Single Coming Soon (5th) + Live DVD (VAMPS LIVE 2009) 2010 MAY New Single Released in JUNE (6th) VAMPS will be Releasing their New Album in July. This will be their 2nd Album.

On January 31st 2010 the band has been awarded with the "Billboard Japan Ranking International 2009" Award for their efforts and success with their Tour in the U.S.A
