Moi Dix Mois

I'm very new to this place and I didn't get any message about anyone writing to the topic that was asked directly to me...so sorry for being late...
the Juka/Kaya thing is a long discussion...and I can't really tell because they never appeared at same place....But I know someone who is friend's to Kaya and I never heard they would be the same...also Kaya appears to be older than Juka, but still not revealed...and i get all crazy of thinking about it again, because this rumour has been around for the 1, 5 years which the band excisted and still nothing clearly....but we do know where Hora and Kaya are from since of before...so...and I know what Kazuno have for connection to Mana... but nothing that binds them to eachother between the bands....
 
and about Moi dix Mois...
I am a huge fan of shazna....and I get all hyper to see IZAM smile on stage...
I am a fan of Mizer, and I get so happy to see Kﾃｶzi and Mana and Klaha in their new "solo's"
I am a Fan of Lareine and I love to see them live...
But No band ever affected me so much as Moi dix Mois....I adore them so much, it's not possible to tell exactly why....it's a obsession...it's just wonderful and the new stuff is GREAT!!!! there's around 6 new songs that will be revealed on the live dvd scars of sabbath 19th od december
one of them is Nightmare!!! I love it...and there is a REALLY freaking growling heavy heavy beat and it's so coool>_< and we have a third one I remember very well that has a refrain that sounds like it's "perish~or die!" and then their first slowmotion song!!! very beautiful... and some more quit "normal" dix songs....
 
doesnt anyone take into consideration that Mana is the person behind Malice Mizer and Moi Dix Mois, dont you think that Mana has a particular sound that he likes? Most of the singers also look alike to. Mana invisions what he wants and he gets exactly what he askes for everytime. So really think of the band members as little marionettes and Mana the puppet master ^__^
 
Sorry to "interrupt" you but I was wondering if they will come in the United states as well??

Because they're coming to France in March...
 
i was wondering if anyone can suggest some moi dix mois songs to me? im very curious...
 
No, they won't be coming to the US. 1 France and 1 Germany show is all.

mizerable_d: The recent releases (Pageant, Nocturnal Opera) are very good, but it depends on your tastes. Dix Infernal, the first album, had a faster and heavier beat to it on nearly all of the songs. Dialogue Symphonie, their first single, was much like that as well. I like both songs from the DS single, DS and Forbidden. Very nice.

For Dix Infernal, I recommend Priere, Pessimiste, Gloire dans le Silence and Ange.

Hmm... I can't say I liked the Shadows Temple single all that much, but Night Breed was a particularly good song.

Nocturnal Opera. Nocturnal Romance, vestige and monophobia are beautiful songs, the latter in particular. Vizard(I REALLY adore this song <3), Perish and the Prophet are good for the harder side.

Pageant. A two track single, however the first track is an intro. About a minute long. Pageant itself is WONDERFUL. One of my top five MDM songs. I love it.

For an overall recommendation, I would pick:

Pageant
Vizard
the Prophet
monophobia
Dialogue Symphonie
Forbidden
Priere
Pessimiste
Night Breed
Gloire dans le Silence

Those should give you a good idea of how MDM's music is. Heavy on guitar, fast drums, lots of harpischord and organ.

i like m10m(great sound)
(even when i dislike mana u_u")
in march they are in germany ^___^
I'll go there *jumping around*
who cares about 6-8 hours in a small car X'D
 
hi, im mana-sama!!! *_* lol jk :P (i wish)
i just wanted to say that im obsessed with Moi Dix Mois! and if anyone ever wanted to really see and get into mana-sama's new project, you must watch Dix infernal-scars of sabbath dvd...^_^;; at first i just liked Moi Dix Mois but when i watched their dvd i became extremely obsessed with them! <3_<3
 
-_-;; it's new to me 'cuz ive became a big fan of moi dix mois just this year.but still i dont think mana's project will ever become old to me cuz he keeps composing new stuff so its all good and new!! ^_^;; *nods* I Love mana-sama ^_^<333~~~
 
Anyone into this band? I really like them, but prefer malice mizer.. Moi dix mois sorta reminds me of Cradle of filth for some reason.. But the bass solo (spiral) kicks! It is very primus alike and it really gets the groove going! :-)
 
Does anyone know if Mana's replaced Juka yet? And if so who's the new singer?

I don't like MDM too much because it's like Mana's ripping himself off. I listen to "Shadows Temple" a lot but beyond that I don't really listen to them. I wish Mana would try something new. Maybe not totally new but it feels like he's found one thing he's good at and therefor does nothing else. He's not not growing as an Artist.
I also do not like the fact that he originally got a vocalist that's a cheap-@$$-Gackt-rip-off. I mean you would have to be deaf not to realize that Juka's a Gackt rip off and we all know Mana's not deaf meaning HE KNEW. That really irks me.

And yeah sorry I'm being so hard on Mana and Moi Dix Mois but I cannot help it. They really irk me.

I dont know all that much bout MDM really... And I have never actually heard shadows temple.. must download..hehe.. I agree with mana not evolving that much.. he was soo much better in Malice Mizer when the format was soo different from each song, and MDM is indeed a band that is a ripp off from his darker side.. Ill go check out some more stuff bout MDM, but I like the music.. Nocturnal Romance is a very good song:-) Oh and Juka.. Is that the vocalist MDM has always had or?
 
Juka left the band awhile back but he was the original vocalist. *kicks Juka in the shin* RIP OFF ARTIST!!! :21:

*cough* Gomen. I just don't like Juka.
 
i never really paid much attention to MDM...i like malice mizer though...well, is there any new news bout MDM?
 
I always thought I was the only one who was fairly unimpressed by MDM. Nice to see I'm not the only one.

I agree that Mana refuses to evolve or try anything new. I have both Dix Infernal and Nocturnal Opera and, sad to say, it takes a real effort on my part to listen to more than half a song. The redundancy of theme leads to boredom and predictability.

One of my many annoyances had to do with the drummer. Some people may find something good (I don't know what), but all I hear is repetitive banging. I don't mind Juka himself for sounding like Gackt exactly as much as I do Mana for using him to sound like Gackt, but that's probably implicit in what others have been saying anyway.
 
Hmmm, I don't dislike MdM exactly, but they are nowhere near as good as Malice Mizer. I can only listen to about 2 or 3 of their songs together and then I get bored with them. I agree with what has already been said, that Mana isn't really challenging himself anymore or evolving as a musician. I dunno why - maybe he just kinda lost that drive? :? - because I'm sure he's capable of better than MdM... but we're not getting it. :eek:

I don't have this dislike of Juka because I don't know enough about him to know whether he's a Gackt-a-like or what (although I agree with Lastmagi that even if he is, it's more Mana's fault than his). Actually I think Juka has quite a good voice. It's not the individual skills that make me get fed up with MdM quickly, but just the way the songs are put together. It's monotonous.

Best to sprinkle them randomly in your playlists.

I like Mephisto Waltz and Monophobia, though. :-)
 
Like I said, Mana'd have to be m********king DEAF not to realize that Juka's a Gackt rip off. Mana isn't deaf meaning he KNOWS and probably got Juka on perpuse because he sounds like Gackt. Actually, he doesn't sound like current Gackt but very much like Artisticly-smothered-no-Artistic-Control-Malice-Mizer-emontionally-dead-prime-example-being-"Belair"-Gackt. And that brings me to ANOTHER reason I don't like Moi Dix Mois! They're supposed to be Mana's "Solo Project" *big roll of the eyes* and yet they're a band. what??? At least Gackt has himself, the Solo Artist, and then a band who plays WITH HIM. There's a difference between performing with a band and a band performing with you. And how the f**k can you call a band a "Solo Project" or call a "Solo Project" a band? YOU CAN'T. It's like Mana can't make up his mind which he wants. Or rather he wants the illusion of a band but he wants all the control. That's not a band! A band is a group of people who working together to creat something not one person dictating to others what he wants them to do. That is not a band, Mana. Nor a "Solo Project." It's neither. And that irks me. Mana needs to make up his mind which he wants; control or a real band.

If it is not a band, nor solo project.. then we call it a sideproject:p
hehe.. But there are alot of bands with only 1 of the members dictating mostly.. But mabe it is just the industries fault that Moi Dix Mois is like it is, and mana is like that.. Just think of it.. mana is a great sales-item really.. industry has probably found out that he is worth loads..heh..

..GOD I HATE THE MUSIC INDUSTRY TODAY!!
 
Blame it on the music industry if you wish. But since when has Mana done something because the industry likes it? And just because others do it does not make it alright. I blame Mana for this mess.

The industry might have more control than we think.

I'm not saying that's a fact - it's just a hypothesis. Who knows how free any musician really is?

Ah well - it's not really a mess. It's just a band I (and Hyde!) don't happen to like so much as others. I can live with that. :p
 
But that's the tricky part, isn't it. Can you really call Moi Dix Mois a band? All they are is a handful of drones and Mana's ego.
And I don't see how Mana's control freak-ish-ness ties into the industry at all, by the way. I find it hard to believe the industry forced his inflated ego on him. Can you really say that the fact that Moi Dix Mois is neither a band nor a "Solo Project" is the industry's fault? I'm sorry, it's Mana's fault. He likes the IDEA of a band but not the reality. He wants the security of a band with all the control of a Solo Artist. He needs to make up his God***n mind which it is he truly wants. Either go Solo, and I mean SOLO, or actually have a real band not a bunch of Artistic Drones who'll do anything you say! The fact that he can't seem to choose, and I am sorry to all Mana and MDM fans, I truly am, but it is f**ked up.

Hontouni gomen nasai demo I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with Mana. Right now I'm in my hate phase. Gomen. 🙇‍♂️
 
I don't love or hate Mana. I just think MdM is quite mediocre. I don't seriously dislike their music... I find it 'nice listening', but it doesn't grip me. As far as Mana goes, I don't think about personalities when I'm listening to music. 🕺
 
Art and Artist are joined in my mind. You cannot have the Art without the Artist, the Art comes from in the Artist so to me they're one and the same. And it isn't that I'm saying Mana makes bad music (dude, I'm f**king addicted to "Shadows Temple") he just seems to make the same few songs over and over and over just with different lyrics. He doesn't change or evolve as I said before.
