*FIRST REACTION* | Yousei Teikoku - Astral Dogma - 妖精帝國 (Lantis)

[@guybrushthreepwood1519]

Just to start you off right: Yousei Teikoku *is* the bandname, it translates to "Fairy Empire", Astral Dogma is the name of this song, and Lantis is the Label they're signed to :) The singer's name is Yui Itsuki, you have Nanami on bass and Gight on drums, sadly both guitarists you see here don't perform with them anymore (Shiren and Tachibana), they've been replaced with XiVa and ryöga. Tachibana still does songwriting and Shiren you might know from Unlucky Morpheus. Yousei Teikoku's in their 25th year this year and they have an alter ego band called DenKare (or to be complete "Denkishiki Karen Ongaku Shuudan"), and I'd second "I pray" as well (as I would *many* others, they have some awesome stuff), but it doesn't have an MV, which for most seems to be a no-go, sadly. "Detonator" is a really solid metal song with a music video though. As for Yousei Teikoku all my personal favorites don't have videos either, so that limits the selection, but since you seemed to enjoy Astral Dogma I'd recommend "Paradiso≒Inferno". If visuals are of no concern I'd say "Shirogane bara kitan" and "Ranshou Aion" are great tracks as well.

Great song, The Bass player looks like a Vampire right out of Interview with a Vampire movie. The set looks like a Vampires Lair. The Singer Yui Sama looks mysterious and sexy. They rock out to their Image really well............ Japan may not have Halloween, but they do have YOUSEI TEIKOKU.

She also used to sing in a band called Dekare. They have some pretty good jams. "I Pray" and "Prima Dynamis" are my 2 favorite Denkare songs and "Paradiso Inferno" is my favorite Yousei Teikoko song. Enjoy

[@THENOBODIESREACTS]

Thanks. Pinned this

[@DShiflet01]

Kawaii means "cute" so yeah, it's often applied to anime stuff and the type of singing Yui does here

[@erwindegroot8760]

Got 2 cd's from them and a few more are on their way from Japan. Yui's voice may not for anybody's taste, but I like it. She's also a voice actress for anime's.

[@AYAKATTA]

if you watch their live concerts sometimes you can listen to her speaking and I can absolutly tell that thats how sounds her actual voice.

[@morganolsson1993]

Funny...I am new to the band and was totally sold from first listen. And even more fun is that I received my first two CDs from them today...one of them with this song (Pax Vesania)! At least I need the four last albums...which are rediculously good! Then probably more of them. Imagine this live! For your own pleasure, check the Pax Vesania live show on KZbin. Three separate clips. Yui will totally enchant you!

it's Goth Metal
