Because I promised certain people (you know damn well who you are jdprominaandsarahaosd) that I would do this and I'm nothing but ocd-ish  throughout in my pimping ways. What you'll find behind the cut is proof of that. Enjoy ! ♥

☆ the members ☆

★Who?	★ What about him?	★Stalkering
★Shou ★	He is the vocals of alice nine. and an extremely manly man. Only, you know, not. Among other things he favors really weird - of the golden and leopart print kind - pairs of pants, looks absolutely fantastic with eyeliner, and giggles like a girl. Also, his voice does not match his face . AT ALL. ( which certainly makes the girly giggles thing even funnier, and watching him singing live a bit of a weird experience it was VERY weird to me, but i overcame my O__o-ing pretty quick :Db). Before forming alice nine. along with the others was the vocalist for bands 'Lost Age' and 'Givuss' (the last one with Tora, current guitarist of alice nine.). Additionally,  he is a total dork, looks good both as a blonde and a brunette, and used to have crooked teeth that he got fixed around the time the band released the single 'Number Six'.	SHOWBIZ Where Shou posts pictures of his cats playing inside paper bags, is a little marketing soldier for the alice nine. cause and defends a world where everyone should drink lots of soymilk
★ Hiroto ★	He is the guitarist for  alice nine. along with Tora.  Hiroto is kind of tiny and really cute and sometimes makes me a think of a squirrel. In fact, he used to look seriously underage most of the time. Lately though - as in during the last 2 months while I was looking  the other way  at KAT-TUN -  Pon (that's Hiroto's nickname) went through some kind of ...transformation. Apparently, puberty hit him a few years later than expected and the boy has bloomed (but dpadsoj no matter what happens, I still love Hiroto  best when he is blonde). Before alice nine. he played guitars for 'Baquepia'. Additionally,  he is a guitar hero genius and the composer of most of my favorite alice nine. songs.	RED HOT BLOG where Hiroto spams with pictures of his many guitars, general dorkness offstage and Spiderman tales
★ Saga ★	He's the bassist (and the boy does love his bass) and an awesome one at that. He also composes for alice nine. and does the back vocals for some songs. He is much less serious than he might look at first sight (he and Hiroto were fond of dressing up as Spiderman and playing with hairspray on make up rooms. sadly, i lost that picture XD). At times, he can be a bit of a slut (his legs >>> mine). Either way, he is the alice nine. member everyone loves to love and  I, well, I can't blame anyone for finding him lovable. Cause he is.  (and he has an old dog named 'Chico' that he picked up on the streets jdapsdaoj how sweet is that ;______;)	JELLYFISH expect many many pictures of Saga's face and others with him in compromising positions. Oh and pictures of Chico too, sometimes
★ Tora ★	Tora is the other guitarist and I might as well start this by saying that he can do me whenever. Now that that is in the open and out of the way, I can tell you that Tora is awesomesauce. He can be really serious, and really ...not. In fact, like the rest of alice nine. he is a big dork. (but a dork who cries in the end of concerts because he gets emotional. awww ♥). These days I feel like he is the one more or less holding the visual kei  forth for the band, but I don't mind it in the least.  Before alice nine. he was on 'Givuss' with Shou - not sure if he was part of other visual kei bands before that. Aditionally, he likes soccer, skateboards and cats. He also has H.I.M.'s heartagram tattooed on his finger and would surely make beautiful babies with me >:Db	VI DO TORANS sadly, Tora rarely updates his blog :( when he does, though it's A++++ and well, yeah, this might have something to do with the fact that he updates while he's drunk. and makes love declarations to Jack Sparrow every once in a while
★ Nao ★	Nao is the drummer and, if I'm not mistaken, the leader of this beautiful band. Which is certainly a bit retarded because he is the one who takes the most abuse from all the other members :P He is a man who LOVES his Starbucks (during the first time alice nine. went to Los Angeles, Nao posted on his blog about his fascination over the fact that there were 3 Starbucks on the same street :P) and going to the hairdresser at 2 in the morning to dye his bangs blonde (and then dye them back to brow the following week). Like the other members, he has issues controlling his dork side and he also is extremely gay for Saga. And no I don't really support pairings on alice nine. maybe a bit of Tora x Shou x Pon jdpaos but but Nao's gayness is a little too epic not to be mentioned. Before alice nine. he was the drummer for  'Fatima' the only band among the bands that had alice nine. members that achieved some moderate fame :P	Naoの(´┏_┓｀) Nao posts (A LOT) about his love for Starbucks, food, toys, videogames, more Starbucks, more videogames, more food, and, sometimes, band business. But mostly Starbucks and food and toys :P

 

☆ the music and the pimping and whatnot ☆

alice nine. has a rather extensive - and wonderful ♥ - discography ( 13 singles, 4 maxi-singles and 3 albuns). I, particularly, think it would be very beneficial for everyone to download everything but the 'JEWELS' single they have released . BUT. I understand that that can be a bit of a hassle :P

Which is why if you feel like giving alice nine. a try but not like spending a million hours downloading stuff, you should download the following:
★ 'RAINBOWS' [ MF | MU ] : the single that I like to call my  "ultimate alice nine. pimping weapon." There's just no going wrong with this single ok ♥. Every person I have pimped it to has gotten addicted to it and I don't blame anyone for that. It's an awesome song. The guitars are amazing (3  solos! ♥ ♥ ♥) the bass line is jdjaposd and Shou's voice I. Idek. Just download this single/song and if you hate it, well, then maybe - maybeeee - alice nine. is not the band for you. Pity :( 
★ 'vandalize' [ MU ] : their third album and masterpiece. People on my flist who are used to my alice nine. spazzing ways know that I'm a ridiculous defender of their first album, 'Zekkeishoku'. Even though their second album 'Alpha' is pretty great, I've always thought that nothing they did could beat 'Zekkeishoku'. Well, I was wrong :D. 'vandalize' is the sort of album you can listen on repeat through an entire day (i surely did). And really, there's very little I can say about it while sounding coherent so just go and download it cause it's worth it.
★ Pat's favorite alice nine. songs [ MF ] : some of them, not all (sadly). I had a list with 20 songs and cut it down to 12  that I consider to be the alice nine. songs that everyone should listen at least once in their lifetime/give it a go. This mix includes things from all of their career - from the heavy visual kei tunes in the beginning of the band, through 'Zekkeishoku'  and 'Alpha' and many things in between including a extremely beautiful live version of 'Mugen no Hana'  and a song where there's an ukelele :D. This is the folder you should download if you are still slightly lazy  trepidant to download their entire discography after listening to 'vandalize' (although I DON'T SEE WHY ANYONE WOULD FEEL LIKE THAT OMG :||||||)

 ★ You can find links for their entire discography (singles  +  maxi-singles + albums) here  (@

In case you'd like to know what they are like live ;)
hint: they are awesome, extremely fun, tear inducing and sex. Sometimes in turns, sometimes all at the same time.

This is a nice place to follow to get daily glimpses of how much of a bunch of idiots this band really is :D
alice9_daily	→ Daily pic spams ahoy !
Akatsuki	→ Lyrics translation site and extremely well kept and useful. They basically have lyrics for everything alice nine. have ever released and they are insanely quick on updating the site with the translations when songs come out.
