A niche band from Asia I loved as a teenager disbanded in the early 2000s. Due to legal reasons their work is in forever limbo, no Spotify, official YouTube etc. Best you can get is 2nd hand CDs on online marketplaces for a premium.

One guy was seeding a 4GB torrent over on PirateBay from 2008 with every song, music video, numerous interviews etc. Reasons like this is why pirating needs to stay alive. Legend made me want to seed it with him longterm. Now we're 2 seeders strong.

Keep sailing pirates, and whenever possible please seed.

EDIT: For those asking the band is the Japanese band Malice Mizer. The torrent in question is https://thepiratebay.org/description.php?id=4158529 And I love seeing how a few of you guys know the band and getting hit by nostalgia. Enjoy

I dunno if I would consider the band that launched gackt as niche but I might be living in a bubble of my own making haha

Haha you definitely have a point. I love it how the man practically pretends the band never existed. Last i heard he's wanted by Japanese law enforcement and has migrated to Malaysia. There will never be a reunion. :(

Holy shit, I've got some googling to do!
