Amazon Japan pre-order link.

Songs included:

[1] I can't live without you.

[2] Play

[3] DOMINATION

[4] Spirit!!

[5] CLANG

[6] Carry on living

[7] DICE

Not a good idea to use free ones. It's important to remember if you aren't paying for it, you are the product. It is a good idea to invest in one tho. Ive been using NordVPN for about 5 years. It's pretty solid.

The copies of About Us and YOLO that I have live in these frames... They look great and don't cost a fortune.

Miku Kobato was involved in writing the lyrics of Thrill, but not credited.

<em>Love, Passion, Matador</em> (single CD) on Amazon Japan:

> また、track2の「スリル」ではBAND-MAIDRの真骨頂とも言えるハードロックを収録。Vo.小鳩ミクが初めて一部作詞に参加。

By the way, a second-hand CD now costs a whopping 151,515 yen (1,400 US$)!!

Description:

> In the latest issue, we held the "Female Festival" first in the history of "Hedoban" under the theme of "Nametara ikanzeyo!" At first in the list the report of the biggest metal festival in the UK "DOWNLOAD FESTIVAL UK" and America's largest metal festival "Rock On Range" both BABYMETAL joined, photographs of complete shoot just for this issue and interview of PassCode and BAND-MAID, Mary's Blood's MARI's love to Slash, LOVEBITES's miho talks about metal love etc...... Women who are unfolding fierce fighting in the world / Special feature on women who flying to the world! Other, interviews of the new generation super guitarist Leda, interview of AGNOSTIC FRONT Roger (Vo) from the metal side New York · Hardcore thorough verification etc, this is a chaos book as usual!

The title is "Nametara ikan zeyo". It's a phrase that means "[women] shouldn't be underestimated". That is the theme of this issue, so it includes mostly women bands (like PassCode, BAND-MAID and BABYMETAL).

I was able to get it on Amazon Japan at a ok price https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B01CCA752Q/

Fire up a free VPN and go to town. I buy from OTOTOY all the time this way using ProtonVPN. Turn on VPN, set to Japan, purchase album, turn off VPN and download. Once something is in your purchased catalog you can download without the VPN on for faster speed. Easy peasy.

$68 on prime is super expensive.

Amazon.jp has it for about $45 shipped to the US. Still 2 day, went out Oct 30th was at my door on the 31st. So sorta one day? But there may have been some time zone fuckery in there too.

For anyone that hasent used Amazon.jp before you need a separate account there, your US Amazon account does not carry over. Also to change to english go to the bottom of the page and click the button with a globe and you can change there.

Only one in stock I could find.

I recommended her Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, a classic by Hayao Miyazaki with 7 volumes in total, the first 2 volumes of which were made into the anime film of the same name.

Don't quote me on any of this.

Sometimes companies/labels buy rights to samples/songs from 3rd party producers and AFAIK it isn't uncommon for there to be multiple songs to come from one sample. I don't know if this happens in genres like this, but it's fairly frequent in Pop. An example of this is SNSD - The Boys and Rob Base &amp; DJ EZ Rock - It takes two. Another more extreme version is Run Devil Run by Kesha and SNSD, but I think that it would be more defined a cover than some sampling.

I don't know if that's happening with Don't Let me Down and Love Bites, but since no one else has answered yet, I figured I should offer my 2c.

MP3Gain is a freeware for bulk normalizing/de-clipping of MP3 files: http://mp3gain.sourceforge.net/ - I de-clipped all my MP3s and now it's like listening to totally new songs :)

Thanks, it's an A2 size

Got this frame IIRC

For a single image or a video I use the Android app Boost (Official Reddit app does have the option). On PC, you can also do it dragging the file in the option Post (instead of Images & Video) on New Reddit (not on old.reddit).

If it's multiple images you can use Boost or the official Reddit app for Android, or the Images & Video on New Reddit (or submit link on old.reddit).

Honestly, it doesn't make any real difference, different brands at the same price points are essentially the same plugs lol, unless you go the custom route. Just don't get the shitty foam ones that they sell at pharmacies or offer on plane flights.

been using these and similar ones from other brands and ive they are pretty much the same, can't really complain. Not expensive so you won't feel bad if you lose them. Some might be more comfortable for one person's ears than others, but that's trial and error with non custom-fitted ones.

Around two years ago, I fell in love with Band-Maid and bought almost everything available. The prices were all reasonable, except for the Love, Passion, Matador single, which I wasn’t interested in, and the Onset CD, which I bought regardless. Now the mook The Day Before World Domination costs more than 10,000 yen on Amazon Japan.

I know there’s a reseller who earns from Band-Maid products.

She was called so even before Band-Maid. “-ncho” has no meaning but sounds cute to the Japanese ear, perhaps originated from Pakkuncho, a chocolate cookie from Morinaga.

Because perfection sucks! Using back-track has nothing to do with perfection. There is a huge difference between adding stuff that makes the performance better and doing playback. I have never mentioned perfection and will never do except for keeping the timing. That has to be absolutely perfect.

To be able to do use a back-track you have to be a good enough musician to play in perfect timing to the back-track. That is probably one of the hardest things you can do as a drummer. Imagine for instance Akanes drum solo in Freedome. She not only have to do a solo, she also have to follow the click track because once her solo is done she have to be on time with the back-track. I'm glad I'm not a drummer, I am no where near good enough at multi-tasking!

Do you have Prime Video?

https://www.amazon.com/Log-Horizon-Season-English-Subtitled/dp/B00VH03T7I

I can't guarantee 100% it is there because I'm not in the US, but other if it's not you'll have buy a physical copy (https://www.amazon.com/Log-Horizon-Complete-Collection-Blu-ray/dp/B0732QT42Y?ref_=d6k_applink_bb_marketplace) or sail the high seas.

This magazine is available in Amazon Japan and CDJapan in case anyone wants to buy it.

The "Shinkiba STUDIO COAST" show is packaged with the Start Over Single. Type A has the BD, and Type B has the DVD of that show. Unlike the ZEPP show, this one is uncut and has the full serving. Here is an Amazon Japan link. Both are great shows.

Amazon USA link

Judging by the cover I guess she's part of the "Hottests new players around the world right now" feature.

>I had found one link to Oyotoy, which has CD quality downloads, but these albums aren't available in my "region" (US.)

Damn, that sucks. They changed that recently. I bought a digital copy of Conqueror on Ototoy on release day from the US, and it went very smoothly.

I think ProtonVPN has a free tier with a Japanese endpoint. Maybe you could try that to get around the region lockout.

If you're in the US it should be available on Amazon, I believe that's where I got it...

Amazon Japan has it cheaper and usually they ship via DHL (so it will arrive faster).

• 愛と情熱のマタドール: The English title is Love, Passion, Matador.
• Thrill: Miku doesn’t have a portion of the copyright according to the JASRAC copyright database, but her contribution is mentioned on Amazon Japan: また、track2の「スリル」ではBAND-MAIDRの真骨頂とも言えるハードロックを収録。Vo.小鳩ミクが初めて一部作詞に参加。 She probably only helped writing the lyrics, like she did for The Dragon Cries.
• YOLO: The theme song of the online game <em>Valiant Knights</em>.
• So,What?: Strangely enough, the Japanese title has no space between the comma and What.
• HARD WASH!!: All caps with two exclamation marks.
