aidanbouw2005 05.15.20	I recommend C418's masterwork Volume Alpha. I know it's the Minecraft soundtrack, but it is easily one of the best albums of the 2010's
davezillaMP3 06.18.20	Hey, since you have not gotten to mine yet, i would like to mention "DIM" is a concept album.The title "DIM" is is meant to describe the moment when you are on the verge of death, when you are standing on the edge staring into the abyss. their are plenty of translations of the lyrics found online and i would recommend it (also their is a good part of the album in English, though admittedly broken English) I am sorry if my rambling and fanboying overhypes one of my all time fave records for you. anyways also would posting the meaning to each song help you out?
Ryus 06.18.20	gonna continue this tonight feel free to post anything that may increase my enjoyment of the album my man
davezillaMP3 06.19.20	Well to start here is the meaning behind all the songs (including the interludes) also Ruki is the vocalist/lyric writer. you will see his name pop up a few times (also comment will be broken into a few parts: 1. "「剥離」[hakuri - separation]" the title means leaving your body, separating mind and body. 2. "THE INVISIBLE WALL" about a person who committed a crime and has to live with that forever. the invisible wall means the prison walls that will always be around him, even after he got out, keeping him from returning to how things were before. 3. "A MOTH UNDER THE SKIN" about plastic surgery. even if you look like a butterfly on the outside, you will always feel like a moth inside no matter what. and it’s not meant to be judgmental. 4."LEECH" This one is kinda vague but its about something that happened to ruki (and the rest of the band) that made him furious. vermin(TOXIC B-side), headache man and the true murderous intent(TOXIC B-side) are about the same thing. and it’s not about their record label (for clarification,their has been a lot of drama with their label at the time)
davezillaMP3 06.19.20	5. " 泣ヶ原 [nakigahara]" nakigahara is the name of a place where people waited for their loved ones to come back from war. the name means “the field of crying”. basically it’s a place where people feel very lonely and that’s why Ruki used it. the song itself is about the loneliness of those who spend their lives on the internet 6."「エリカ」[erika - erica]" the title comes from the erica flower. it symbolises loneliness but also charity and love for humanity. 7."HEADACHE MAN" covered the meaning in leach 8. 紅蓮 [guren - crimison lotus] about a pregnant girl grieving over the birth of her stillborn baby 9."子宮」[shikyuu - womb]" the track is baby’s cried played backwards 10. "13STAIRS[-]1" [thirteen stairs minus one] traditionally there are 13 steps to the gallows but when we add the minus one the song title becomes “one step before reaching the gallows(=dying)”. it’s about how rock music and especially visual kei (the Genre GazettE fall under) were supposed to be the kind of music where you can do whatever you want yet the people in charge are trying to tell artists what to do and some artists are going with it and failing anyway and the genres are dying.
davezillaMP3 06.19.20	11."DISTRESS AND COMA" the pov changes between a woman who’s in a coma and a man who’s sitting by her side, waiting for her to wake up. it’s just that the man gave her a trauma (cheating? abuse? we just don’t know) that keeps her trapped inside her own head. distress in the title is a reference to the man and coma is a reference to the woman. 12. "「感触」[kanshoku - sense of touch]" a prelude for shiroki yuuutsu (Neo genesis vol. 37) 13. "白き優鬱 [shiroki yuuutsu - white melancholy]" yuuutsu is supposed to be written as 憂鬱 but ruki wrote it as 優鬱. 優 means gentle, so the title means “white, gentle melancholy”. a true story about a family of ruki’s friend. after the grandmother got diagnosed with cancer the family started acting really nice around her and that made her feeling melancholic even though everyone was being really gentle towards her. so basically the song is about how people can make you sad even though they only try to be nice. 14. "IN THE MIDDLE OF CHAOS" about ruki himself. the title kind of says it all. 15. "「朦朧」[mourou - hazy]" kind of a prelude for ogre. it shows in the form of music what it is like inside the hazy mind of a man who’s tripping. or maybe i should say that it shows what it is like inside ruki’s head 16. "OGRE" the ogre in the title is "a demon in god’s clothing”. basically the song is about how there is no god anywhere and even if there is he doesn’t think that there’s anything worth saving (hence the demon in god’s clothing). so the only thing you should believe in is yourself. 17. DIM SCENE ruki wanted to write the darkest song he can manage so what he did was put all the songs on the album into one (So every single line references a different song on the album, bringing the album full circle) It can also be looked at as life flashing before ones eyes before they die, and just how self destructive nihilism is but the world is made of it (the Nihilism is my own interpretation, thought i would share) If you want easy access to the translated lyrics, here ya go. Not the best option as of course their is some Minor errors in the translations (but they are from years ago, so its forgiven) https://www.jpopasia.com/thegazette/album/1933/dim/. Just click on the music Icon for any particular song. If you find it more convinat then searching up a Translation for every song.
ArsMoriendi 06.26.20	Holy wall of text
rodrigo90 06.26.20	Our Lady Peace's naveed or clumsy. I personally prefer naveed.
Ryus 07.10.20	making some edits today hopefully i can stop being lazy and finish this off lol
JohnnyoftheWell 07.10.20	just saw this, glad you dug dude "was not expecting that guitar solo on the back half of the t/t" lmao yeah, my face the first time...
davezillaMP3 07.11.20	truth be told i knew i was in a bit of a wildcard with GazettE (people ether love them or hate them) if you were to just read the sound offs on their albums, you would assume they were one of the worst bands to come from japan (and incompetent songwriters who seal everything they hear), but anyways i kinda had a feeling i was in a bit of trouble when i saw your lack of Nu-Metal in positive rankings (not really a bad thing, what clicked for me did not click for you. also i am not assuming you hate Nu-Metal, I am just explaing that i was expecting a negative opinion ). Right now I am 0/2 on Japanese artist impressions XD (first time was being bounced out of the umbrella tournament first round). Also same Scores both times
ArsMoriendi 07.12.20	Oh shit, mine's next
