Friending Meme

[florianschild]

Maybe you struck up a conversation while you waited in line for the roller coaster. Maybe you and a questionably large group of friends all tumbled out of a van and walked in together. However it happened, you're now here at the Carnival with your friends. The best experiences are all the richer for having fun and interesting people to share them with. Let's all get to know each other and make some friends to hold our hands during the scary rides or split a basket of fries with.

Feel free to post your answers in the comments or on your own journal and share a link. See you around the fairgrounds!

As for type of visual kei, at their very start they were okeshou kei (generally kind of looks like glam rock, but in their specific case they wore chic suits with their hair bleached and straight up like Polnareff or Guile or Benimaru), then they were kurofuku kei (this just means wearing cool outfits in all black, crazy hair optional), and around 1994 and beyond they can be called either soft visual (not super crazy-looking, but definitely more unique-looking than your average Joe on the street) or not vkei at all.

Their sound was beat rock (a pretty Japan-only type of rock music) during the okeshou kei era, during the kurofuku kei era they were beat rock with strong elements of post-punk or new wave, and beyond they have done all types of rock -- more post-punk, new wave, goth rock, garage rock, industrial, grunge, electronic... generally they can be called alt rock.

Most of the popular visual kei bands these days are metalcore, and I'm not huuuuuge on metal. Definitely don't hate it, I guess I prefer songs that sound depressed over angry?

Oh this is a LOT to learn from! :D

Lol so you're more into emo stuff then? Or whatever the closest genres in v kei get to emo?

(Ironically, you'd be considered very metal for not being a big metalcore fan lol. It's okay if you aren't much of a metal person)
