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 am from Germany where libraries arent crippled to death.
Thing most libraries outside of major city centers don't get the funding.
My local library doesnt have a manga section for example. The library in the next city at least has that but also requires a subscription or a single lending fee.

Okay fair, my apologies. I'm not sure how you classify major city centres, but the library back in my hometown of 120k is thriving too. I actually have cards to multiple library systems, as they all have different online resources. I use my mum's address for our hometown library card! 😂
