The main topic of this episode sort of flew under the radar when it happened back in December, but it's so significant for indie artists on Youtube that we wanted to make sure we gave it front-and-center coverage. Please let us know what you think about this issue!
(Editor's Update: Great news! BatAAr's music video has been remonitized by Youtube! While it's great that the video has been remonitized, what happened is still very concerning for music artists on Youtube, so make sure you listen to the episode to hear our thoughts on the whole situation. And don't forget to let us know what you think as well! You can watch their video update on the issue by clicking here.)
Also in this episode, we cover some interesting new trends in indie visual kei that we expect to see a lot more of in the coming years. Make sure you tune in to learn all about "extra kei", "parody kei", and the artists that are pushing these trends along.

(Note from Jeff: This episode was delayed due to some abnormal issues with our initial recorded audio. Our first topic relates to Crossfaith's new EP, which has since been released. After listening to the single, I would say that the opinions Winona and I put forth in that segment still apply. Please keep that in mind while you listen, ands sorry in advance for any wonky audio in this episode.)
