薔薇の末裔

He's fat, but probably you can't notice how big his belly is until you see him live xD I was surprised too.

It's the Japanese tour. Check the official homepage.

Yes, because it's impossible to notice how horribly fat nigu is IRL...

I think Ba.刹那(setsuna) would participate in that revival live as he is still active in various sessions You serious??? I mean... I thought he's quit music completely O.O Does he have a blog or something? 'Cause I never found any D: He got an official site: http://ip.tosp.co.jp/i.asp?i=setsuna00x

He did like one song on the same day Juka sang with HGP, so that's not actually true. Kaya also sang on a couple of HGP concerts but the project is officially on hiatus since the last oneman in Feb. 2007.

Going for Aliene. Metis Gretel were a horrible live act but at least Sui improved a lot after joining Mega.

LOL that's sad ): I was really hyped up. Any announcements of their comeback anytime soon? They told they hope to be back but they dunno how and when... Also they told they felt this lineup is the best for E'm and that they wouldn't like to go on with another members so that's probably why they are on hiatus. Sounds more like "we would like to come back but probably we won't". Also Yuze and Rita were crying all the time so if it's just a break it's gonna be a veeeery long one.

Considering there were just few people at the gig, I doubt he will *lol* Also the cello solo was quite...messy

Not one? Bands/artists I know of that they used to be on that label are: - Versailles (now with Warner Music Japan) - Hizaki grace project? (hiatus) - Matenrou Opera (now with King Records) - Juka (hiatus) - Kaya (did he change labels?) - VII-Sense? Aren't Kaya and VII-Sense still on that label? Or is VII-Sense signed to Undercode? If so I would find that to be really strange, with Juka's past on that label VII Sense are on Red List and are gonna change to a new label. Kaya has never been on SAS, since he got his own label Traumerei. Juka is retired so he is no more on the label.

cheap

I can't see what's wrong with this. M left the band and AC is gonna change label. Also most of their back catalog is out of print so it's not surprising that they are gonna release a collection album of the Sequence Records days. They already had a compilation, but it was sold only overseas to help overseas fans get the songs from the singles released in Japan...

Btw it's not sure that Hitoki will be in this time... Could be a completely different lineup like new Sads.

Recently Kalm has been writing most songs and Hora hasn't written one yet after Ophelia. Also there is an unreleased song by Kalm titled Addict that Kaya has been singing live frequently and also a song written by someone from Rentrer en Soi that was showcased a couple of times live. No idea about who wrote Sugar Rose but I don't really think it was Kalm.

it's live-only, but it looks like some V-kei specialized shops will sell it as well

Juka. What he sings is COMPLETELY unrelated to the English lyrics

It looks like Mana himself made that cover so lol

Those information are all taken from the post written on Jasmine You's blog after his death. You can find also some translations of it at the Versailles fans community on LiveJournal (link)

the 2 new songs are from the live-only single that was sold this summer. So no news songs this time

They weren't the first band but the first band to actually sound vkei was definately Kuroyume. Most bands including Dir en grey adpopted their style. Before that there were bands with v-kei look but playing normal metal/hard rock music like X Japan and such.

At the latest concert a fan shouted to release a CD, but Kaya replied they have no plans to release one unless hey are sure someone would actually buy it Also they've been doing this session for a couple of years at least so it looks like they don't really care about recording and such for now.

No, that was Daisuke. He was involved in the label but started another project some time ago. Kawanishi was in some unknown bands years ago like Jesus and La-bial.

The DI VIII on December 24th will be a release party for the album, but the album won't be released that day... Release date is definately in December but is yet to be announced.
