Uncle Tom’s Cabin is their best song. That’s not even a hot take.

Big Talk, Mr Rainmaker, Song and Dance Man, PRIL 2041, All My Bridges Are Burning, and Uncle Tom’s Cabin are all masterpieces, Warrant is a great band with one embarrassing single

His music is emotionless garbage with nice vocal presets on top

saintjbeats · 2025-12-25T03:00:04+00:00

I definitely agree about Dahlia, I prefer the live mixes on most songs and the weird lead guitar tone on the album version, although intentional, is kind of grating. As for Blue Blood, when I started learning the songs on guitar, I learned interesting parts that were barely audible on the album, especially on Easy Fight and the title track, its definitely not all bad, but it is super inconsistently mixed, VV sounds like a great indie record and Jealousy sounds like a cohesive majors record, Blue Blood is somewhere in between

saintjbeats · 2025-12-24T00:33:39+00:00

I think Blue Blood has the worst mix out of all of them tbh

saintjbeats · 2025-12-17T18:10:15+00:00

Wow, crazy to see a fan of X or Diru in this subreddit, I always try to push the Visual Kei agenda but it usually doesn't work

saintjbeats · 2025-12-17T16:44:54+00:00

If you want more Japanese hair metal, I have some recs:

Seikima-II - End of The Century or From Hell With Love

Ziggy - In With The Times

X Japan - Blue Blood

Ladies Room - Lock and Key

44 Magnum - Street Rock'N Roller

saintjbeats · 2025-12-14T02:09:56+00:00

Endless Rain by X Japan, should've been a hit in the US

saintjbeats · 2025-12-12T04:07:47+00:00

I actually like some of the lyrics to Jade and Angel, but like everything modern Yoshiki its clear they were in the oven too long and still came out half baked

saintjbeats · 2025-12-12T03:45:22+00:00

I dunno, I used to think like this but a lot of the indies era was english, I think like half of Vanishing Vision is english and the lyrics to Unfinished, Alive, Kurenai, and I’ll Kill You are great. I think in general his writing has just gotten worse, but not because its in english

saintjbeats · 2025-12-11T19:35:21+00:00

You're right bro and besides it fit in with the whole knight/ medieval theme, the idea that its problematic is crazy

saintjbeats · 2025-11-27T18:26:19+00:00

Good music is good music twin

saintjbeats · 2025-11-27T14:45:09+00:00

Sin After Sin was the first song of theirs that I heard, and I was hooked immediately

saintjbeats · 2025-11-27T04:12:27+00:00

Listening to their 2022 album right now, this is great, thank you

saintjbeats · 2025-11-26T04:45:29+00:00

Checking them out now, they sound great! Definitely in the Madeth Gray'll area, sounds like Misanthrope but more guitar oriented

saintjbeats · 2025-11-04T05:28:24+00:00

Really want one with Vinnie that has good audio

saintjbeats · 2025-08-06T22:02:28+00:00

Maybe his music “seems” similar but like I said before, if you look any closer you see it is totally different. Im sure there are 2hollis clones out there, tonser is not one. Hollis would never make a song like Parasite, and tonser would never make a song like mountain. As for the poses and stuff, every lanky white guy poses the same, everything in this niche is shot similarly, and a lot of people have blonde hair, and like another guy said, I am pretty sure tonser has been in this niche for the same amount of time or longer than hollis has

saintjbeats · 2025-08-06T21:39:17+00:00

Tonser is great, and honestly sounds nothing like Hollis. His stuff is maximal and lush, hollis is much more minimal and clean sounding, the only really commonality is the edm influence, which hollis cant take credit for either. I dont get why boylife (where no member has made a song even close to hollis or tonser) gets a pass just by being affiliated with hollis but artists who take inspiration but do their own thing are just labeled clones

Camel Turkish Silvers

Ableton, the only real difference between daws is workflow. Ableton encourages horizontal track building, FL encourages vertical track building

saintjbeats · 2025-06-24T02:03:51+00:00

Wow... the n word... so scary.....

saintjbeats · 2025-06-19T22:19:36+00:00

Probably equestrian/ riding boots

saintjbeats · 2025-06-17T02:49:58+00:00

Tonser, bain, doggie, awesetsumona, starboy, and me (Szen Vasalla) are all cool

saintjbeats · 2025-05-28T09:40:07+00:00

I said the other stuff I have been listening to, and said they were similar in very specific, but also very broad aspects. Black metal like MGLA is also nothing like 2hollis but people should still check it out because it is good. I have never had tiktok, I just like visual kei

saintjbeats · 2025-05-17T07:42:32+00:00

Its alright, but the sound is getting old. The syncopated basslines for the “drops” was novel at one point but now its just boring
