Lyrics page renovation + discography page upped!

My work over the past week is finally finished with two major site updates --

• The lyrics page has been majorly simplified and listings have been arranged alphabetically instead of by release. I realize most people aren't going to have the releases' track lists memorized, and when you just want to find a song fast, alphabetical listings are the way to go.

• But don't worry -- detailed CD information has moved over to the newly-added Discography section! I've added more deets than we had before, including a "Special CDs" tab for releases that aren't an official part of the band's discography.
  (Some of them get a bit hazy because of they're serialized but were released on a limited basis -- so this listing is fuzzy, but at least between the two tabs, should be complete!)

I'll continue to roll out updates to hopefully offer more and more, better, accurate information about the band, so stay tuned. Next on my list is a little break from the coding work to get some more lyrics in, so look forward to those!

New member + lyrics added!

Just this afternoon, support member Nov (previously nob) was announced as the newest member of THE GALLO. Starting today, he will be playing with the band officially from the kamite (lead guitar, stage-right) position. Wajow has already moved to shimote (rhythm guitar, stage-left).

Nov's profile has been added to the Members page, and I'll have the main graphic updated with the new group photo later today.

I've also added more lyrics and translations to the site -- head over to the Lyrics section to see all songs from Maou and Tokyo Cinderella in English, romaji, Japanese -- and in one case, Russian!

International LUCIFERO Preorders!

Notice Regarding Translations / Materials

If you've ever copied or referenced any materials from this site, please read this real quick.

I've found YouTube translators who have used our English translations as a base to translate into other languages, and I've found Facebook groups and fansites that have verbatim copy-pasted information from our website without notice or credit.

We've worked extremely hard over the past 4 years on the materials available on this website, and on keeping the website online and updated.

If you're going to use material from us on your blog, video, fansite, Facebook, or whatever -- at the very least please LINK back to kuroi-ondori.blogspot.com. Uncredited republication, or republication with a mention but no link, is unacceptable. At least link back to us, but we'd also love to hear from you if you're interested in using material from our website somewhere else. We're not disagreeable and are all about spreading the love for this band, but reposting content we've worked hard on without permission is just really not okay.
If you like our work enough to copy it around the internet we would really appreciate knowing it.

Most of what you're going to find here is not publicly available elsewhere. We did not copy content from any other fan, and much of the information/lyrics were posted or compiled by us before anyone else. Again, we've put a lot of work into this site.

* If you find materials somewhere that have been copied from our website without a link back, we'd also appreciate if you can link to that material in the comments of this post or let us know so we can look into these cases.

Thank you very much for your understanding.
