Tribute to The Pledge - Dir en Grey

This song, especially the unplugged version, was introduced to me by a friend in my multiply blog. Surprisingly, the song etched deeply in my heart, and somehow it could always ease my anger or sadness though the song itself seems like filled with both plus despair :D
The drawing was being drew at the time I was too sad and too angry to express it without hurting anyone's feeling....so, back then I grab a paper and a pen and started scribbling like mad.



mitsumeteta awai negai o egaki
naze furueteiru? kodoku o kakae shounen wa seiten no sora ni nanimo nai koto no imi o
naze ni rinen wa haru
haruka tooi yakusoku no koe
mou kikoeyashinai sa

nagare katachi o kaeteyuki kieru
ima mo kokoro ubaware yaketsuku kusari no ato
urabureta koe koko ni hitori

naze ni rinen wa haru
haruka tooi yakusoku no koe
mou kikoeyashinai sa

This is my pledge to you

mada umaku ikirarenai sa
kaerareru no wa tada...

asu ni ikasaretemo
nanimo kawaru hazu no nai hibi
mada owarenai
komi ageru kokoro ga mada
saku no nara kotaetemiro yo

daremo iyase yashinai



I express the fleeting wish I had been gazing at
Why are you shivering? The lonely boy looks up at the sunny sky that holds no meaning


Where is the philosophy of spring?
The long lost promise
It cannot be heard anymore


As time goes by it changes shape and disappears
Even now after my heart was taken and rotted
My miserable voice is alone here


Where is the philosophy of spring?
The long lost promise
It cannot be heard anymore


This is my pledge to you
I cannot live successfully yet
But I think I can change


Even if tomorrow lets me live
The days will not change
It will not end
If my full blown heart blooms again
Then answer me


I can't comfort anybody

Akiba Street

Sebenernya pas itu asal nyeletuk jadi akibaSt ....XD.
Intinya khan di lagu-lagu yg udah pernah digarap kemarin-kemarin sama nextGen, dan lagu-lagu yg cita2nya bakal digarap nanti coraknya tetep anime, tokusatsu, jpop, game yg pusatnya di Akiba kalo di Jepang :3
Soal kenapa "street", di Jepang sendiri banyak musisi-musisi yang start dari jalanan hingga bisa sampe jadi musisi besar dan keren. Lagipula, di "street" ada banyak org dgn banyak style dan masing-masing kepribadiannya. Dengan kata lain, kami bisa tetep jadi diri kita sendiri dengan karakter vokal dan karakter musik kita masing-masing disini, yang bisa lebur jadi satu ketika kami menyanyikan sebuah lagu bareng-bareng (hayah)
Yang mungkin bisa ngebedain kita dari otaku, kalo otaku mengcover dengan sungguh sugoi dan sungguh mirip aslinya, maka kita mengcover dengan style lain, yang entah jadinya lebih nge-rock, ato justru lebih kalem (akustik). Tidak menutup kemungkinan juga kita ngecover dengan gaya musik kita sendiri ato bikin lagu yang samasekali baru, walopun sementara ini kita belum tau apa kita punya tujuan sampe recording sendiri aja, recording sampe ke label, ato cuma utk sekedar melampiaskan keinginan nyanyi ngebawain lagu2 ost/anime/game/tokusatsu aja :3
ah iya....vocalists terdiri dari saya, Farid, Dhilla, Maurice, dan Dhoni. Gitar oleh Dede dan Mentoz, dan Bass oleh Nongky :3
