Rentrer en Soi

[pinkkillerkisou]

@Poison: I know exactly how you feel. Well at my old job but right now I am doing one of my landscape projects... my god it's the messiest yard yet... haha. I'm thinking about negotiating a higher pay cause it is more than I bargained for and I'm only getting $250. It's so tiring and it's been unnaturally hot for this time of year... in the 90s most days... it's unbearable

@Norm: wow... that is pretty awesome! XD Oh yea... but I don't think that'll be a problem... we can always force them to give us our so called happy endings if they aren't so willing... but why wouldn't they be?


Edit: I forget to mention... I lost the Vall'na Racill single. Oh well... I guess in a way it's a good thing... since I also bid on a 1st press of Yurikago that ends in 19 hours. I didn't have the money for it so by losing the single I can afford it... haha. If I win it that is...

 

[Riyko]

That sucks that you lost that single PKK. When I bid on the yurikago 1st press no one tried to outbid me on it, but good luck with it and I hope you do win it.

 

[pinkkillerkisou]

I have no luck... I lost it too.. haha. There's another one up for auction so I'll try bidding on that one... 3rd times the charm... maybe?

Prepare yourselves for a very long post... LOL. I spent the last couple hours rereading diary entries. I'm too far behind... so I'll just give you guys a summary of everything they said recently and translate a couple key entries. There are just too many to translate... Satsuki has been writing several entries a day... one day he wrote 6 entries! Where does he find the time? O_O

Satsuki announced they finally completed all the finishing touches on the new album. He said the whole process of creating the album was about a half a year. He said that the release of Karasu Iro no Taiji is approaching so soon and we will get to hear it entirely. He has a bunch of random entries about a movie he wants to go see, about someone sending him a picture in the mail of cherry blossoms, something about a banquet and the releasing of tour information, photoshoots, the weather... haha... there was one entry that made me laugh so hard... all he said was the Jazz is groovy... LOL. There was another one where he says the mastering of the album is groovy... haha. Now I'm scared... RES making groovy music... haha... but a jazzy RES song could be awesome! In one he said he had a scary dream but he didn't say what it was about. There was one saying that you could see a little bit more in live photos... haha... I think he meant his chest and stomach. He mentioned something about a live video but I couldn't understand him. Man I hope to god they are releasing a live DVD! Oh... and he was very sad when April Fools Day was over... aww... haha.

I translated this entry cause I thought it was important... it's kinda "chopped up" cause I could figure out everything. Satsuki is still hard to translate even after all this time... LOL

As for Karasu Iro no Taiji

Although being an indispensable tune for in the album,

Making it independent applies the importance of the work [meaning a single by "independant" I assume]

Doing a special thing in the label surface is one of the reasons (just the first board, ne?) [no clue... I think he means the weird fetus drawing that's gonna be the cover... I wonder if Takumi did drawing and nagged him to use that drawing on the album and Satsuki didn't want to and finally gave up and said "FINE!!! ...we'll make it a single! Just leave me alone!" I could honestly picture that... LOL. I wish Takumi would post his doodles in his journals... I love his doodles... especially his little crazy egg dude]

Going in the album, there is also a message which it shoots for the first time

Intense message as a work

The color which the tune gives out respectively at two positions is different

Hearing even now, the mind is in thought

We would like to say that it was not written in a poetic manner [I got this line is soooo wrong I'm sure... XD]

Conveying by any means and applying a wanted understanding [...buuut maybe it's right cause maybe he means it's a message rather than a poem or story... XD]

But at first glance, even with the Rentrer en Soi of the time before, it is evident that it has become worldwide

This is largely different, it is step up

(As for details they are in the interview of the magazine) [what magazine? XD]

The manner of approach as a band progresses grew

But also it brings self-confidence and the assurance of achievement


This kind of reinforces that age old entry when Satsuki before they changed their name... he said that Rentrer en Soi was known worldwide or atleast aiming to be... which is certainly hopeful. So all caps really is going big... haha. Maybe the "step up" is worldwide tour... woo!

...and this one. Not so much important as damn cute... haha.

It started getting off [hahaha... that's the literal translation... but he means it started to rain]

Rain

Rain

Rain

Falls the rain
which
Rain
of purification
Because of it you walk with the umbrella

The cheek receives it


We would like to do stuff

Cold * & *

hahahahaha... oh man I'd die if that turned up as one of their songs... I swear all I could think of was Satsuki staring out the window singing that song "Rain rain go away come again some other day" LOL

As for Takumi... he said it was a 4 month process recording for the album. He said the album is a famous musical work of the highest quality and the impression it gives is unmeasurable... (haha a little confident, eh?) I think if I translated correctly Takumi had a little accident at their last live. If I understand right there was equipment troubles... haha... he was banging his head and hit his head on his guitar and his head was bleeding... he had to get stitches yikes! He's so funny though.... he said "it's all good" lol... he kept laughing through the whole entry. He had random entries as usual... one very long confusing one about the death day of one of his idols.

Shun... he's a butt... ahaha. He finally updated after ages though... it was on the 6th of this month. He said he's very busy and at that point the album was about 98% done. He said he was waiting and trembling over the one-man that was coming up... haha.

I haven't been paying attention to Ryo or Shun or Mika's diaries... they hardly update... there's a few new ones of Ryo I never saw... Turns out he was pretty sick . He had to go the the hospital a few times. He's been really fatigued and in pain. He's been sleeping alot. He mentioned he got lots of fanmail... poor baby... I want to take care of him He said he keeps persevering though and he'll live... aww... haha.

There's this one entry Mika made that makes me laugh everytime. Did you know Mika is a gardener... LOL. No I'm serious. He wrote this impassioned entry about now having 5 liquid crystal monitors at his farm shop... haha. Ok maybe not impassioned... but he called it a treasure house... or maybe he grows weed. Who knows... haha. He had some pretty long entries but they are so cute. One of them he said the smell of cherry blossoms is wonderful and there is a connection between the smell and memories and he goes into this whole thing about the fragrance... and as you are starting to swooning over his words he totally switches to the topic of healthy and nutritional drinks... LOL. Then he starts talking about Sacchan's singing (Satsuki... haha... it's so cute they call him that). Then there was another entry about lack of sleep and how it effects his muscles... if he doesn't sleep to much his brain and body doesn't heal... aww. His most recent entry was way to wordy and deep for my understanding... haha. I do know there was a part where he was saying he wanted to strive and train himself to be the kind of person who elegantly handles things.

 

[Coshh]

Wow PK, you must have known that RES was on my mind and I was just about to make a post in here saying how much I LOVE Taiyou no Todokanai Basho.... that bass..... ... I hadn't listened to Astre for waaay too long. >< Now I am falling in love with it all over again!

OMG... thank you for all that long post... must have taken you ages. hehe, a jazzy RES song would be pretty cool to hear! I like jazz... but let's hope they wouldn't leave quite all of their old style, lol.

Aww, poor Satsuki and his scary dreams. I want to cuddle him and make him forget about his scary dream...

Cor... that chopped up post in italics really is like a poem... I think I ought to start re-translating all my blog entries twice through Babelfish in order to achieve a similar level of poetic incomprehensibility! haha...

Worldwide tour would be fantastic AS LONG AS THEY COME TO ENGLAND!!! ARE YOU LISTENING, YOU ALL IN CAPS THERE??????

They would like to... "do stuff"? ☝ ☝.............

lol @ Takumi having to get stitches because of banging his head on his guitar! Aww... I didn't mean to laugh... I just... couldn't help it... that is so the sort of thing I would do...

Awww Ryo got sick? I didn't know that... I feel really sorry for him now... I hope he will look after himself.

Mika is a gardener too?! I can just picture him and Seth growing radishes together! No really... gardening is the new cool hobby... Anyway, I hope he gives some of his nutritional drinks to Ryo.



............................ I'm sure that between us all we can teach him how to elegantly handle things..............

Thanks again for translating that lot!

 

[Normphobic]

See...I knew Jrockers would love purple roses! lol Mika could grow them in his garden right next to the Mary Jane LOL.

Poor Ryo, Bre will be so sad. I knew he was fragile haha.

All I could picture while reading Satsuki's entry was him talking like Ash in The Evil Dead! "Groovy!"

I couldn't help but laugh at Takumi lol. Maybe knocking himself in the head killed off some brain cells, so now he'll be easier for you to manipulate haha.

I'm sorry about the auction...good luck on the next one!

 

[dniwer]

Thanks so much for that PKK! RES going worldwide ... XD , sounds hopeful to me. Aw, Mika and his gardening is cute and Satsuki always makes me smile. I'm all of a sudden happy now (I've had a really crappy day).

 

[pinkkillerkisou]

Haha... no prob! Well it didn't take too long since I had already read most of the entries but was too lazy to translate them properly to post so I only had a few to catch up on... LOL.

Don't worry about it... I laughed at Takumi's accident too... I wonder if fangirls we're trying to catch his blood in their mouths... haha. And he'd totally be easy to manipulate even without the head injury... I could just say there's ramen at my hotel room and he'd surely agree to come over... LOL. I honestly don't need to manipulate him though... he'll know I'm the one and fall in love with me instantly... of this I am sure... lol.

 

[Riyko]

Wow PKK I really hope you do win one of 1st press copys of Yurikago ^_^. Also thank you for translating the entries. I only understood takumi's where he hit is head on his guitar. I've done that once at a gig with my old band had a huge gash and then had stitches. ☝

 

[*Satsuki*]

ow that must hurt.. I know satsuki been on writing bloggy spree or something I usually read their blogs but it's alot to read so thanks for translating the member entries! *-* you know I read somewhere that satsuki jumped into the crowd in recent live lol that's so funny I never thought satsuki as the type to jump into crazy crowd he's used to be all frail and stuff but I guess no more.. RES can surprise us with anything now huh? even a concert ^____^ ....dvd or live which I wish would happen this year!!!

 

[Coshh]

lol, there you go, it's probably a good job I don't have a pointy guitar then, even though they do look cool.

Aw, hope today is better Sunsweet! *patpat*

And good luck on the Yurikago first press, PK!

Hey, does anyone else think that the intervals in the intro/outro riff in Hoshikuzu no Rasen sound really like the intro to PROTOPLASM, except that it twists off in a different direction? :?

 

[Rancid__]

I haven't heard anything of them...can anyone upload __runs away and hides___

 

[Kaine]

coshh: i agree... i kinda thought their new song sounded a bit like protoplasm... at least... it reminded me a lot of protoplasm

racid_: has anyone sent you anything yet? caz ill send it to you if they havent =P

 

[pinkkillerkisou]

I agree about the PROTOPLASM Hoshikuzu no Rasen thing... it does sound a bit similiar only like backward and pushed through a strainer... haha... ok... I just felt like saying that... but that's be pretty cool to pass songs through strainers... ahaha. Oh I swear this cough medicine is making me loopy. I thought the first time I listened to the clip of Karasu Iro no Taiji on the OHP it was a heavier PROTOPLASM... but now I listened to it several *coughmillion* times I don't think htat at all. And am I the only one but when I listen to Haikyo to Kashita Hakoniwa I swear I always think it's a re-make of an old song.

WAHAHAHA... I win! Ok... that's only gonna be funny to me unless everyone else imagines me saying it like Yzma when she turns into a kitty in The Emperor's New Groove Yea so I won first press Yurikago... now I just have to call everyone who owes me b-day money and tell them to get their lazy butts and wallets to my house... LOL.

 

[Kaine]

you noe... satsuki's voice never cease to amaze me... how the hell can he sing sooo high?! GEEZ!!! its always so hard to sing along with him!!!

 

[pinkkillerkisou]

whoops... I meant to include this flyer in my last post but I forgot... haha.

Kaine you are so right... Satsuki has such unnatural range so sometimes I ending up sounding like some kind of dying animal straining to hit those notes... LOL

 

[Rancid__]

coshh: i agree... i kinda thought their new song sounded a bit like protoplasm... at least... it reminded me a lot of protoplasm
racid_: has anyone sent you anything yet? caz ill send it to you if they havent =P

Thanks Kaine
..goes and listens the single and album....

 

[Kaine]

no problem =D hope you like em!

AHHHH the aesthetic + angelic!!! i wish i could have gone to see that concert!!! it would have been THE concert =*( lareine and rentrer.. how much better could it get?! anywho... thanks much for the flyer pkk =)

yea... i sound like a dying animal too when i try to sing along to satsuki =P

 

[Champloo]

5 days until the single. *dodges mods to get the son of a ***** before she dies* XD It sounds like it will be better than Protoplasm. And I can sing with Satsuki in the bg. ;p Not quite used to him being there, though. I am used to singing with Kyo and Satsuki is different.

 

[pinkkillerkisou]

Technically only 4 seeing as it's tomorrow in Japan already!

 

[Coshh]

Damn! I'm not going to be around when it comes out!

~does not poke the mailman this time~

But still... I can't wait to hear...

(I seem to use that smilie --> a lot when talking about RES... )

 

[Normphobic]

Okay, I must admit they look hot here...thought I would share!

 

[Kaine]

oh goodness!!! thanks for the pix normphobic! i think they need to be lighter tho -_- i can barely see satsuki!!! =*(

 

[pinkkillerkisou]

Yea you better share! HAHA.... I saw that pic earlier. Looks like the same pics as the ohp except Satsuki. Takumi looks so sad. *holds him and rubs his crotch... I mean back... comfortingly* LOL That Mika pic still makes me giggle... I don't know why but whenever I see I think he's all grown up and a man and ready to grow some chin pubes... haha... so random.

 

[Riyko]

awesome PKK that you won the 1st press of Yurikago. I won mine on April 6th and i'm still waiting for it to arrive at Akibado's office so they can send it off for me and the 2 cure magazines i got on April 4 and 6th and i'm still waiting for those to arrive at their offices as well. *sighs* I hate playing the waiting for orders to arrive at offices game XD.

I still want to order the new single, but the only way i can is with paypal and yesasia doesn't have the Karasu Ito no Taiji single

 

[Coshh]

Thanks for the pic... very nice... I like Satsuki's gloves... I have a pair of gloves kinda like that but not so cool. ><
