It has been announced that Ayabie’s vocalist Aoi, with his solo project “Aoi from Ayabie” will be contributing the theme song for the dorama “Jouou 3 ~ Special Edition~”, starting on October 8th.

However, even before his 1st single release, the 2nd single has already been announced, which will be the opening for the dorama “Jouou 3 ~Special Edition~”. To find out what kind of song this is going to be, check out the dorama quickly!
Yet, checking out the dorama isn’t only for the title song, because Aoi himself will also be appearing in the series, which is the first earnest attempt as an actor for him. And Aoi as an actor is also pretty noteworthy.

BugLug have announced the release of their second single for Ausust 18th.
The group formed in 2009 and have altered their look by toning down their previously brightly coloured costumes and instead sporting more neutral tones to place greater focus on the music.
BugLug’s new single is titled Made in Mind and will be available in both regular and limited editions. The regular edition will contain three tracks and the limited edition will contain two tracks and a bonus DVD featuring both the PV and making-of for Made in Mind.
the GazettE have announced the postponement of some of their upcoming dates.
The reason for this is that vocalist Ruki has been diagnosed with vocal cord edema associated with viral infection. His vocal cords are swollen, leaving him unable to talk or sing and it was necessary for him to spend some time in hospital.
Currently, the GazettE’s upcoming lives in Hiroshima, Okayama, Fukuoka, Chiba and Atsugi have been postponed. Further postponements will be announced at a later date, depending on doctors’ judgement.
To reassure fans, guitarist Aoi has written on his Twitter account that things have calmed down a little.
On September 25, X JAPAN will kick off a seven-city North American trek at the Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles, with subsequent stops in Oakland, Seattle, Vancouver, Chicago, Toronto, and New York.
