Dies Irae venit ante diem XVII Kalendas Apriles Currently my favorite music is metal, especially the symphonic metal (in Italian symphonic metal) in Europe. But it is difficult to follow from the Far East, especially because this kind of music is unknown to almost nothing here in Japan. Therefore, first of all, there is sufficient information in Japanese on this symphonic metal, then sell only cd of famous groups, there are also the names of the Japanese cities of their tour dates. But thanks to the Internet you can find the latest news and most importantly, you can download the mp3. But this new technology can not yet resolve an important issue. Unfortunately, symphonic metal bands are not in Japan, there is not even their concerts. So to attend their concerts have to go to Europe or other countries in which they play. In fact one of my best Japanese friends often traveled to Europe from Japan, with the aim of going to the Festival Metal ... that envy!
In
previous post I presented a symphonic metal band Japanese
the Moon Liv. Next month, March 16, 2011, their second album, "Golden Moon, after a long wait finally comes out. As I watched the promo video that already has been released "Dance of Death - Dies Irae" (Japanese: 死 の 舞踏 ~ ディエス イレ ~), the melody is even more Europeanized, and play more heavily. And most of all the beautiful, clear soprano voice of Liv Akane (the singer) is wonderful as always. After releasing the new album will do a concert to announce the new album in Tokyo, April 24. So I can go to a concert symphonic metal without traveling in Europe, although frankly I'd rather go to the West.
