L'Arc~en~Ciel

Man, I am sitting here listening to STAY AWAY and it F&^% ROCKS. I have heard the song several times before via video and I was always so distracted by the video, (if you saw the video you'd know what I mean) I didn't quite realize how good the song was until I just sat and listened to it. It's rockin'! Oh and that bass line/solo at the end, Tetsu is rockin' my socks!

I love this band.

Re: L'Arc~en~Ciel

Truly an awesome band and one of my favorites. STAY AWAY is also one of my favorite songs, it really shows Tetsu's excellent bass playing and composing talent.

They just released a new single, Killing Me, and it sounds great. I hope there's a new album in the works too.

Re: L'Arc~en~Ciel

By the way OA, I got the new video Killing me and another one called New World. Both courtesy of Little Buster. They are both really good but Killing Me just rocks.

Re: L'Arc~en~Ciel

Great news for the DVD. I've been waiting forever for Tofu to annouce something.

There's yet another single coming out next week, and they've also annouced a 6/22 release date for a new album, AWAKE.

Re: L'Arc~en~Ciel

I :heart: L'Arc~en~Ciel too. I recently downloaded their upcoming single, Jojoushi (it was leaked pretty early and I am too impatient to wait for my preorder emoticon

). It's a really nice song. Reminds me of classic L'Arc more than their other recent singles.

By the way, here's the tracklist for AWAKE if anyone is interested;

01. New World
02. Lost Heaven
03. 叙情詩 (Jojoushi)
04. Trust
05. Killing Me
06. As One
07. My Dear
08. Existence
09. 自由への招待 (Jiyuu e no shoutai)
10. Ophelia
11. 星空 (hoshizora)
12. twinkle,twinkle

Re: L'Arc~en~Ciel

Jojoushi is actually really good, very refined and bold (plus gotta love the violin bass that tetsu is playing, Funkay...)especially for a Ken song. What shocked me is that its actually LOST HEAVEN that is the theme for the Full Metal Alchemist movie even though Jojoushi sounds more like the one they play in the backround of the trailer...biazarre.

PS: The PV of Jojoushi rocks too, very pretty...

Re: L'Arc~en~Ciel

I orderd my copy of the Live in the U.S.A DVD today from ebay. An early birthday present to myself. I'll let you know what it's like after I get it.

Re: L'Arc~en~Ciel

LEAKAGE! No not that kind, the good kind, I have full versions of TRUST and My Dear, if you guys want me to spoil I'll upload them. Also I have a semi-full radio version of LOST HEAVEN, and small previews of the others other than Jojoushi, Killing Me, and New World. Also Mellie from what I've seen of it (only seen the first half) it looks pretty good.

EDIT: I have the full version of LOST HEAVEN now.
