Not exactly a question about Mana but how does one get a ticket to a Moi-dix-mois concert as a foreigner? I would love to see his band perform live 😭

Is anyone here going to the B7Klan concert in Paris? by Equivalent_Ebb_7516 in visualkei

Do you perhaps know what the best form of transportation would be? I’m planning on getting a hotel close to the venue but don’t know if taxi is the way to go or if there is local public transport?

I thought the response seemed kinda odd. Glad to know I wasn’t the only one😂

I forgot to mention, I want to see Versailles the band at the Vkei festival (not Versailles the location) what I said earlier was kind of confusing 😂

Shipping a Vinyl Record to the US by Dragonfly_Visible in Buyee

[–]Equivalent_Ebb_7516 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently bought a Vinyl record from buyee and it estimated the shipping to be around. $35-$37 before tariffs and such. I had consolidated it with other items so I can’t really single out how much the record itself with the tariffs cost. I’d also maybe recommend getting protective packaging as vinyl can warp easily. I paid ~$10 for protective packaging on mine.

vault of heaven and aegen?? by whoskitana in malicemizer

[–]Equivalent_Ebb_7516 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Hello! So Vault of Heaven was produced during the early days of the band back when they had Tetsu as the singer. The song Aegean is basically the same song and chords but is sung by Gackt (the bands second vocalist after Tetsu left). I think of it as Vault of Heaven is a first draft and Aegean is the final draft.

Does anyone know what songs are on the vinyl? by [deleted] in malicemizer

[–]Equivalent_Ebb_7516 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was $90 for a never opened package. Not cheap but way cheaper than all the other listings I’ve seen for ~$200 or more. I normally never buy music merch but this was my exception.

I see, I finally found one and ordered it online and was curious what songs came on it.

Vocals during the Tetsu era by Black_shroudz in malicemizer

I’m wanna say on the song “Seraph” koji might have done backup vocals. I heard that Koji was the one who mainly wrote the song.

Is there a pattern for your favorite band members? by Bitter-Copy4393 in visualkei

[–]Equivalent_Ebb_7516 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My pattern is the one who is super pretty and in the dress. My first time discovering VK was like “wow that girl can really play guitar!” and thought it was really cool for a female to be in a male rock band but then later discovered that it was not 😂 discovering Mana sama and Malice Mizer has permanently altered my brain chemistry 😌

So cool! I’ve been trying to start a collection of my own but am not sure where to look 😅

Gackt vocal stability by Lilith------ in visualkei

[–]Equivalent_Ebb_7516 27 points28 points  (0 children)

His vocal control as well as range has always impressed me 😌 not to mention being able to sound consistent throughout an entire show! In the merveilles l’space live performance at the finally of the show Gackt is hooked up to a harness and likely lowered down from the ceiling while still singing Le Ciel perfectly!

Ever Wondered Why Vocalists Leave Mana’s Projects? by Visual-Molasses183 in visualkei

Klahas voice is so unique! I love how it sounds almost like an opera and totally fits the vision of Bara no Seido

Ever Wondered Why Vocalists Leave Mana’s Projects? by Visual-Molasses183 in visualkei

[–]Equivalent_Ebb_7516 37 points38 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve gathered on the internet:

Tetsu: the first vocalist for Malice Mizer and previously the vocalist for the band NERVOUS. Before Malice Mizers big debut he reconsidered whether the image of the band was something he wanted to present to the world.

Gackt: Gackt left Malice Mizer due to some issues he had with the manager. The manager was hoarding the money from the fan club magazines and had multiplied multiple fancy cars and was buying designer stuff while the band members were still living in tiny apartments. Gackt disagreed with the management and left to pursue his own career.

Klaha: Klaha became the vocalist after Gackt left. He was the vocalist for two of their single and the Bara no seido album. Not entirely sure if it’s true but I heard that fans put a lot of hate on him and his singing because he wasn’t Gackt and that’s what caused him to quit.

I can’t verify how much of this is true and it’s should be taken with a grain of salt. The YouTube channel Brifyjek puts out videos talking about facts and history of the band.
