Title: Members?
Description: what are they doing now?


Forbidden1 - October 12, 2007 02:15 PM (GMT)
I know Mana is in Moi Dix Mois and Gackt and Klaha have their own solo projects but what is everyone else doing? I've read About some things but i'm not quite sure what they are doing now.

i know Kozi had/has a solo career he did release a Dvd of lives earlier this year,
Yu~ki i'm not sure i've heard rumours but i doubt they are true, but he did help Kozi out on the lyrics of one of his songs

Tetsu, the singer on Memoire, he has been in loads of bands after leaving Malice Mizer.
Despite what everyone says... He is awesome... Check out Zigzo, Nil and mega 8 ball - they were his projects after Malice Mizer.

Love Love Love Tetsu!!! :wub:

This should go in the Malice Mizer section so I'll have to move this thread.

When you start a new topic please make sure that you are doing so in the right section.

Although Kozi was solo and worked with Eve of Destiny for some time, I really think he quit his music career. Has anyone else noticed his website disappeared a long time ago and you never hear anything about new releases or what hes doing? Its almost like he pulled a Klaha and Yu~ki. I really miss Kozi. ):

Yeah I had noticed that as well. Pity. I miss him to and I was just starting to get into his music but I'm looking at some Cure Vol 50 nov 07 Scans right now with with what looks like an interview with him and some other guy. I can't tell though My japanese reading skills are rubbish. So maybe,maybe he'll come back :rolleyes:

maybe its a plan... hasnt mana said that dixanadu is the pinnacle of mdm's artistry... maybe a malice reunion is going to happen...


XDDD

I had those exact thought when I first read about Dixanadu.

but then I read him say

To me, Malice Mizer is not a band anymore, but an association of artists

Either way, whatever Kozi is doing now, he must be happy with it, ne? I think a lot of older artists (by that I mean 90's visual kei ex band members) have a tenancy that once they lose their major popularity/fan base they just kinda go off in their own lives. Nothing wrong with it, but I feel like it always leaves the people who really were/are fans hanging. I wonder if there was ever an announcement at one of kozi's lives of ceasing activities? It would be an interesting thing to research some time.

As for Mana...thats kinda sad if he said that DIXANADU is the pinnacle of Moi dix Mois! Does that mean hes found a form of fulfillment in Moi dix Mois and he'd be content with ceasing things at that point? Not that he would, but its such a scary thought to me when someone like Mana says it. Hes the kind thats always searching for more and say to say he has reached a peak almost sounds like it can only go down hill from here.(T_T)v
Not to sound negative, but thats just not a good thing to say...): I want Moi dix Mois to continue their work and progress as far as they possibly can. I have no doubt in my mind that they wouldn't...but...just that statement kinda gets to me.

ahh, I've never thought MALICE MIZER would have a reunion, because to me MM really does feel like what Mana says -- an association of artists. When you get that, it seems like theres more a dispute going on between how things would be run and such rather than a reformation. Thats just how I feel about it though. Then again, I also feel like MALICE MIZER is one of those things that would be better to let sleeping dogs lie.

Maybe Mana has stated Dixanadu to be the pinnacle purely because of a stint that his next album could be the transcendence of that pinnacle and go one beyond what he thought was possible... maybe he has the idea that he's going to go on beyond his own talents that he knows he has... that would be amazing!

I agree with Mana's opinion on Malice, They were awesome at the time, but it would probably be a huge anticlimax if they reformed because of the individual members own solo experiments. Don;t get me wrong, as a fantasy it would be nice to see, but in my heart i dont think it would happen. But it is also nice to have the memory of Malice and what it was.

As for Moi dix Mois, I think Mana enjoys it too much to leave it go.
He seemingly enjoys what he does, and its exposed him to the rest of the world a lot easier than Malice Mizer.

But it is a scary thought, if he did want to disband.

HOKAY
I found out what Kozi is doing!! 8D

"Actually, Kozi is in ANOTHER band, other than EoD and his solo. He's a bassist in a band called Death Attack Chainsaw, so technically he's not taking a break...Even though, he makes a CD about every 2 years... ^ . ^"

ManaVampire - November 13, 2007 01:11 AM (GMT)

As far as I know he also had some management changes. And even his FC closed. I guess Közi will come back soon, he maybe just makes a few changes ^__^

Yeah, it said on the link I posted in Japanese that the fanclub was closed down. I couldn't understand all of it, but I got the hint that it will be coming back in June or something? I'm not exactly sure, I just understood that it was closed down for some time and then something about June. XD
