Klaha - Page 2

I think Klaha is in the same field of Juka, Hizaki Grace Project, Hakuei and Asagi. The music while good is only an echo of what was done as part of a group. Surely it is solo work, but it has the underlying sound of the group work. Thus, I feel that while the music is good, it's really nothing to go "gaga" over.

I mean a great solo artist, whose work sounds nothing like the band in question would be something like Ruiza's "by degrees", or Chachamaru's "Grieve" or even Sugizo's work outside of Luna Sea. That would be considered completely original and outside of the band sound.

He's trying to be completely original, I do believe he is, but it's nothing to be "OMG IT'S KLAHA" about. I mean a lot of the piano sounds like the piano work Gackt did for MM.

That of course is just my opinion, as to why I think Klaha really doesn't have any "gaga it's Klaha" fans.

Klaha's voice is special, and that's what there is to go "gaga" over if there was anything to ever go "gaga" over in the first place. I'm not "gaga for Klaha," but he definitely deserves a name in J-music because of his unique and talented voice. He has a great timbre, and his vibratos are well-executed and effective, unlike a lot of other J-rock singers who can only briefly vibrato at the very end of a line.

The point of "Rock" is Rock. Not vibrato. Klaha can't really be considered rock then from your point of view it would be more of an opera-ish class.

Klaha's amazing. I think I've listened to Beast of Blood like...over 1,000 times. I love his voice, and his solo stuff is beautiful. And again I say, you can find his solo stuff on imeem.com

If you'd pay more attention to vocalists' tones, you'd notice that vibratos are used a LOT in J-rock. Klaha sang a lot of J-rock songs for Malice Mizer, not just opera, and he utilizes his vibrato very well.

If you want to call it that. Klaha's voice is not meant for Rock. I think in the aspect that you're speaking of Gackt was better. Klaha's should stick to what he's good at, and it's certainly not Rock, and he obviously knows that with "Setsubou" being all ballads.

Vibrato is the official name for those techniques, yes, no matter how short or noticeable they are. Klaha has rock potential, and I think he would do alright, but you're right, Klaha's specialty really doesn't belong with rock.

Klaha is amazing
Defiantly my favorite of the 3 Malice Mizer singers
He has a beautiful voice that is so captivating
I think thats why I liked him best in the Malice Mizer days, his voice just seemed to fit Malice Mizer's style more then the others.

I personally think that Tetsu was the best out of the Malice Mizer singers, although I love all of them.
