This was either a title from Tatsu, who likes using English words in almost convincing ways, or Baby who is anti-authoritarian with his reggae inspired lifestyle.

Btw, for the Gastunk fans here, see what Baby does when he isn't thrashing away with Tatsu and Pazz:

 

Running to the Sun
Fighting Mad
Cold Blood
Dead Song
Red Indian's Rock
Fastest Dream

I'm here again and super excited about this release!
I was expecting a full length too. They've got enough songs for another album or two already.
And despite cheaper recording methods (home studios, DAWs, etc) most bands can have at their disposal, they really want to give this release their proper due with the art and that probably affected the amount of tracks they could record. If you reduced that 32 page booklet down to a 1 page double side fold-out could've gotten us maybe a song or two more on that album.

That said, I'm really going to have to buy my copy from Disk Union for the extra!

Soon~  
 
 
 
yes I'm gonna keep this one-person hype train rolling. ;(((

MUNIMUNI will release their new mini album "月光男の日記 / A Diary of Mr.Moonlight" on 2018/10/31 (2,600円). It will include 6 tracks and a whopping 32-page booklet with photos, lyrics, band member interviews and liner notes.
 
Tracklist:
01. THE MOONLIGHT SONG
02. NEW ORDER LOVE SONG
03. TIME IS FATE
04. VELVET魅惑TONIGHT (Album version)
05. B-BOY
06. THE SHADOW 2
 
Thought this would be a full-length finally, but oh well, at least they're keeping their schedule this time.  Can't wait!

COCK ROACH's leader / vocalist Jinpei announced very simply on their official website's BBS that the band would return after having called it a quits in 2005.
He explained that after having composed more acoustically with mugen minus, the electric folk group he started in 2006, that he wanted to get back to a band sound. Here's the full message:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
昨日ラジオ収録でcock roachの活動再開を発言しました。

この掲示板に来てくれている人がまだいてくださる事に感謝です。ここに来てくれている人だけでも良いので新しい作品ができたら是非聴いてみてください。

解散して13年？くらい経ちました。私もメンバーも随分と歳をとりました。私は13年間音楽とは関係の無い仕事をしてきました。今でも音楽を「仕事」にするつもりはありません。
しかし様々な形で音楽作品をつくってきました。
日々、労働や生活に身を置く中で強く感じた事や感動した事を唄にしてきました。
その時に、やりたい時に、創りたい作品を自由につくる事で音楽だけは色褪せる事無く、宝玉の様な清さでいつも真ん中にありました。どんなに辛い事があっても音楽活動が自分を支えてくれました。

cock roachを再始動させる理由はシンプルに2つあります。
ひとつはcock roachを少しでもファンでいてくださる方達に逢いたくなった事。
もうひとつはいい作品がいいメンバーとつくれているので完成させたいと思った事。

無限マイナスも大好きですが、13年間でしたためた曲をアコースティックでは無く、もう一度ぶ厚いバンドサウンドで作品化したくなりました。無限マイナスファンの皆様本当に申し訳ありません。

このふたつの理由以外にcock roachは何も望みません。
以前にもこの掲示板で書かせてもらった通り、私は靴を舐めてでも、マヨネーズを吸いつづけてでも音楽だけは続けます。
随時こちらには情報を載せたり、ホームページをリニューアルしたり、リリース情報やライブ情報を載せてもらいます。アルバムリリースは来年の春予定です。遅れてもアルバムは必ず発表します。

全国300人のcock roachファンの皆様。13年振りです。

蜚蠊は簡単には死なない様です。
では、お逢いできる日を楽しみにしています。---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

COCK ROACH released several popular demo tapes leading up to their 2001 debut album '虫の夢死と無死の虫'. They released a 2nd album, took a hiatus, and then reformed a year later with a 2nd guitarist making the band a 5-piece. They played alongside bands such as Kulu Kulu, The Back Horn and REDRUM and the members of COCK ROACH sometimes still appear in session gigs alongside those contemporaries.

The band broke up in 2005 barely a year after their return when their first guitarist Tetsurou decided to leave the band which he had been apart of with the other 3 founding members since 1996 when they were just in high school.

Jinpei started mugen minus in 2006. Yuya joined REDRUM briefly in 2006. And Both Jinpei and Yuya formed 'Hakase to Korogi' and released one album 'Monochrome Butterfly' which were a spiritual successor to the COCK ROACH sound.

The new lineup COCK ROACH consists of original members Jinpie and Yuya alongside Hirokatsu and Naoki who were part of me-al art. The latter band were the only band signed to Jinpei's label Kuromushi Geijutsu and me-al art disbanded in 2015.  It is unknown why the original guitarists and drummer from COCK ROACH are not part of the reunion.

Towards the end of the message Jinpei teases that they will release a new album in Spring 2019 which would be their 4th full length album.

Some sample tracks from the band:
 
 

touché, this was definitely more on-topic.
 
But seriously, I've been a long time fan since Blurry Eyes appeared in front of DNA and I didn't realize I had to speak only positively about them! Okay, here goes, Tierra is a desert island disc for me - I hope they play White Feathers at the concert!
What I do find fascinating and sorely lacking on forums is really in-depth conversation that goes beyond one-liner comments. The motivations of the band and the individual members are more interesting (whether good or bad) to me now and a simple "L'arc is back!" thread would leave some casual or uninformed fans the impression they are returning. I believed that at first until I read it was just concerts. I simple explained how they might not be back in the way L'arc fans really are hoping for.

Overall, I think it's safe to say that Awake was the last time they were a band in the true l'arc sense that most of associate as being the band we love. Smile was them learning to work together again, Awake was them actually being a working band together,  and Kiss was just the honeymoon period from Awake. I can't even listen to Butterfly and don't even think of it is a real album. It's really just a collection of random singles that don't feel like they work together hence the 4 year recording time for that album. The band up to that point were very concise in the studio leading up to each album. Remember the Ark-Ray singles of 98/99 that felt cohesive but still each song had a distinctive sound of their own?

If you look at their touring schedule post the world tour of 2012, you will just see short and calculated concerts to celebrate the 20th or 25th or whatever. 
https://www.setlist.fm/setlists/larcenciel-43d62367.html
They can easily sell out Tokyo Dome easily and I'm sure the labels and management companies for each member are the ones pushing the idea forth more than the members themselves. Those yearly two day back-to-back concerts literally backroll each member's solo career, or in the case of tetsuya and ken, allow them to relatively do nothing in the studio compared to what they used to do in the mid to late 90s.

So while I want the band to be the band that can work together and produce consistent work like they did early on 1993-2000, those days are long gone and these upcoming concerts are probably just a cashgrab or conscious effort to keep the l'ard brand alive before another long hibernation as they've been doing for years. I actually quite enjoyed Wing Flaps and thought it was great in a 'True' sense but that too was probably some other behind the scenes management thing which we'll find out years later "My management spoke with their management and we decided to meet in the studio to see if we could work things out...." type motivating factor behind the single and the other recent ones.
 
 
While the money split might be the real reason, I took public Japanese way of saying that the members can't work with each other anymore. Are there any interviews from hyde and ken where they state they want L'arc to go on? I actually always thought the opposite, that Hyde would rather go solo/Vamps and ken would rather do nothing. Yukihiro probably has it best of all of them as he doesn't need any band for the Depeche Mode like music he makes. He's equally sufficient being a part of a band or a mad scientist in the computer/studio.

Based on tetsuya's autobiography, tetsugaku (https://mei-24.livejournal.com/14719.html), - he always had to deal with the difficult parts of being the band leader. He was the one who kept the band together and kept pushing it forward. Regarding Sakura's departure / being kick out of the band. You can very clearly deduce that Hyde and ken were against the idea of so quickly moving forward with the Reincarnation live and held a grudge against tetsu at the time. Ken would later team up with Sakura in SOAP, so there definitely was no ill-will there.

Some quotes from the translations. Tetsuya's words in bold:
===================================================================================================
I want to add that I am also proud that I have been able to make my band move further as a leader. As for the results, of course it’s not all due to me, but I believe that I have been able to choose the right path. Because I am sure that each time I’m doing the best choice. For example, when sakura quitted, there were many ideas, as you may expect. The same happened when we did the Reincarnation live at Tokyo Dome. There were several opinions, so, in the end, if I had chosen a different path, how it would be today?


-At the time of your return with “L’Arc-en-Ciel 1997 Reincarnation” live, you were convinced that “if it’s not Tokyo Dome, it doesn’t have any meaning”, so you didn’t give in.

The manager we had at that time was against the idea. He said it was unreasonable, but as a result we sold out all the tickets in 4 minutes, the fastest selling in history. To tell the truth after sakura left, to my shock I was accused of having kicked sakura without mercy. In the end, even members thought that.
===================================================================================================
 

Following that incident there is bound to be friction and this led to that period of l'arc's history right after that whole burn-out inducing rollercoaster of heart-ark-ray-real that led into a hiatus.  You can surmise that Tetsu and Hyde started doing solo activities after that tme to find their own ways and that turned into Hyde wanting to leave the band outright during or after Roentgen's release.

===================================================================================================
- You said you’ve thought of quitting L’Arc-en-Ciel several times. But your band had a big crisis, too. Would you like to tell us the details?

It was in 2002 maybe. hyde’s manager came to my office and handed me an envelope, saying that he had received it directly from hyde. Inside there were the CDs I had lent him and a letter. In that letter he apologized for having kept those CDs for more than 10 years, and announced he wanted to quit the band.

-Honestly, what did you think about it at that moment?

I thought that once hyde decided it, nothing could be done. He wrote me a letter, so he had surely spent a lot of time reflecting upon this thing. Well…more than “nothing could be done”, I thought that, despite every effort to stop him, he wouldn’t change his mind. "
===================================================================================================

 

Hopefully the Hyde collab will just be exclusive for the anime and the album version will have Toshi.
If not, I'm afraid the next X Japan album's going to look like a typical rap album where every track has someone as a guest and you barely hear just the artist themselves:

1. Last Song feat. Will.i.am
2. Kurenai (English Version) feat. spoken word by David Lynch
3. Kiss the Sky feat. Way too many audience members who wasted too many minutes of their lives while the band took a break on stage
4. I.V. feat hide and Taiji during the solo and also the sound of a can of Yoshikirin being opened right on top of them in the mix, because oi$hii !
5. Rock Star feat. Marilyn Manson who tries to cover hide's Drain gremlin voice
6. Beneath The Skin feat. S.K.I.N.
7. Red Swan feat. Hyde
8. Angel feat. a duet with a Violet UK starlet that was sold a dream of fame and glory but who now realizes she spent too many years on the project
9. La Venus feat. Toshi but not Pata, Heath, and Sugizo
10. Art of Life (Last Refrain) feat. Oprah reading some inspirational passage written by Yoshiki about overcoming hardships in life and somehow struggling on

Limited Edition 1st Press Bonus Disc:
Yoshiki featuring Lady's X
1. Without You

Wow. Didn't even realize Xboards went down. It was such a classic place for all things X - and it's strange it had a long death as X was starting back up again.
