You may have noticed this already, but many of the subcultures in the visual kei scene are experiencing a huge amount of change and growth, especially this year. One of the most affected areas of the scene is "heavy kei": hard-rock/heavy-metal-inspired bands from scenes such as nagoya kei, eroguro kei, and others. With so many changes happening in the music of so many bands (some maybe for better, some maybe for worse), I figured it's high time we stream about it and take closer look. So join us today on YouTube at 6:00 PM EST/3:00 PM PST, and share your thoughts on the state of heavy visual kei in the live chat! There are a few cases I want to zero in on for this stream, but I'm happy to talk about any band you bring up in the chat!
