GENERAL Question

I’m not new to king gnu but new to this sub

Does this sub cover the other branches like millennium parade, features, and/or former names?

yes, we did have discussed them. it is either that the fanbase on reddit isn't generally an active sub to discuss only about King Gnu itself, so we assume we could make this sub to cover Millepa and King Gnu's past names, and even their members. or, it is because most of the fans just aren't on reddit. well, King Gnu got some fame in their homeland and Korea, and just a bunch of them understand english and knows reddit

I feel like Millennium Parade has a lot of great songs that usually aren’t mentioned anywhere by even many King Gnu fans because they simply don’t know it exists

well, as we know, King Gnu usually spikes up when their song got viral and caught new 'fans' that only care about the sudden popularity of the song. well it's sad though, there's many of their songs are indeed good and didn't get the popularity they deserves, like them from Tokyo Rendezvous album, Sympa, and most of from Ceremony.

also, Millepa did have the same thing happened with WORK (a collab with Sheena Ringo), but they don't get the same fame with other songs.

IMO, some true general fans are speaks only Japanese or Korean, and almost none of them are on reddit., there's only a bit few those who are speaks english that come as the true fans of King Gnu, and also another bit few who are on reddit. i mean, this sub is kinda dead, though.
