@loolo72 ¿KISS? Give me a break! Both bands do not even sound close to eachother. Probably the only similarity between either band is that they both have a band member with the monicker of 'Ace.'
I remind all that face painting is a prerogative of traditional japanese theater; Kabuki theater... so I think that Seikima are showing something particular of their country!!!
@videogamegenius This face paint is based on a japanese theater style so it actually would be more accurate to say kiss ripped these guys off since their face paint is from a stlyle that came before kiss :D
They were so freakin' awesome at A-kon. I love all of their songs and got their autographs. I said to Luke "I luv your hair!" He laughed and smiled and said thanks. And I got to talk to Jail O'Hashi. All of them were really nice. Come back to Dallas soon!!!!
If Seikima-II copying KISS, King Diamond copying KISS, IMMORTAL and all black metal bands copying KISS.... Seikima-II & KISS have the same inspiration from Kabuki Theater that's all o_o
If Seikima-II copying KISS, King Diamond copying KISS, IMMORTAL and all black metal bands copying KISS.... Seikima-II & KISS have the same inspiration from Kabuki Theater that's all o_o
i saw them at japan expo what a great moment ^^ the guy speak french very good ^^ and also write some Kanji on a paper board and singin in the same time, he also made a good joke about manko lol ^^ hahaha!!!
Granted they wear make up like Kiss, but they sound nothing like Kiss. I'd sooner compare them to Helloween. Pretty good though. [first time ever hearing them]
THE SATAN ALL STARS will be good, if you have money, "The ultimate black mass" has this song but the DVD complete version is expensive because it shows all of the last 3 days. If you have VHS player, there is a short version of this.
seikima II kick the ass of kiss hoho!!! aahhmm by the way is not visual kei is not jrock is not jcrap is just seikima *¬* and Hijoro1024 go to suck my c**k!!!! stupid otaku bastard!!
Definitely not like Kiss. They seem like they we're inspired by Judas Priest. At least that's how it seems when I look at the guitarist with the leather hat hahahaha.
Best fact: Seikima is not a rip off of kiss! Their styles differ greatly if you listen closely to both lyrics and instrumental. This sounds a lot more like the british rock of the Led Zeppelin era to the Metallica era.
I think this is more like the NWOBHM (New Wave of British Heavy Metal) -bands. At least I find more similarities with Iron Maiden, Samson, etc. than Kiss and such...
Now this band might be cool if the "Jack the Ripper" guy killed a prostitute on stage live each performance, at least then he would be living up to his name.
Ive been trying really hard to find tablatures or sheet music for Seikima II, but im not having any luck, can anyone help me out........and if you say ultimate guitar ill hit you e_e
WIth that many guitarists on stage at the same time it's amazing this didn't degenerate into mush and noise. Goes to show you how good musicianship goes a long way. Awesome solo section, too!
so you seikima-II fans can give me many thumbs down if you want, but if your true seikima-II fan you should know that by now, its a fact! nobody is copying nobody, the word is "got inspired"
ya you can say that kiss was inspired by kabuki or cooper or the new york dolls and even bowie, but if it wasnt for them to landed on tokyo in 1977, bands like seikima-II and x japan might be different bands than what we came to know. even x japan and seikima-II themselves admitted that they were big fans of kiss and got inspired by kiss,
Very true. Kiss' influence and inspiration transcends national and language boundaries with the power of rock n' roll. Besides, it's nice to see bands still doing things like this--putting on such elaborate stage shows and having such colorful images--without irony or making fun of it at all. Big ups to Kogure-san for keeping this alive!
The old cliche of "Seikima-II copying KISS" Seikima-II are musically very different and in my opinion far better than KISS. This is one of the best live performances I have ever seen, GO DEMON KOGURE!!!
jack the ripper was allegedly walter sickert protege of edgar degas. he had a fistula which over time impeled him to murder women in white chapel district. he was sick motherfucker.
Copys? X use entirely different style make-up than KISS and KISS inspired by kabuki and Seikima used Kabuki-style makeup. They may use make-up but that's not copying. If they used 100% same style makeup, then it would be copying. Get your facts right or stfu.
The singer looks like a Tekken video game character. Better hope Gene Simmons don't see the make up!
