VERSAILLES new Singles and Album

[JustIronic 1]

Probably won't be buying these one. My hopes are too low tbh.

[nekkichi 6043]

sort of want, mostly because my interest in VK almost vanished, but versailles have a tiny chance to deliver at least with singles.

unholy flopgrail was meh, though.

[Des 289]

Hopefully this album is a step up from Holy Grail, the only good song worth going back to play that was on Holy Grail is Judicial Noir and that was a B-side from the singles haaaa.

Y U NO LIKE MASQUERADE?

Maybe because that song was a crappy recycle project? One of the most boring things they have done so far. Almost the entire album Holy Grail was disappointing. However, I guess they had enough time to think of new stuff. So... there's hope!

[LIDL 692]

I'm pretty much blind here, too soon to say either not interested or excited.

I'll hear those two singles first,... and perhaps previews for the albums when time comes.

And then i will know if i am looking forward for the album or not.

[Meku 10]

It's indeed pretty fast,

but holy grail wasn't that bad in my opinion.

I'll be lookin' forward to their new releases in hope it's better

I think it's only an April single and the full album in August. That's what I remember hearing and my friends who were there also think it's just 1 single. All I recall Kamijo saying about June during the MC is that they would have the 2 anniversary concerts. The singles usually end up on the next album anyway.

I'll take her word on that.

Also, apparently D was invited to play at their Anniversary concerts. That's what tumblr is telling me anyway... Versailles/D world tour

Oh really? so i didn't got it well...And my japanese friend also said about 2 singles, so lets wait the OHP update!

And yeah, Kamijo said about D too. Btw, i dont have they'll have a world tour this time.

They said at X-mas event they would like to stay in Japan this year

[clow_eriol 240]

Holy grail was weak, I hope that this new album going to step up. I'll buy for sure, but I think it's still a bit to fast release...

[Augie1995 325]

I have hopes for this album, unlike what seems to be the majority, I rather enjoyed Holy Grail even though there were some songs that didn't call to me that much like Flowery. I can't say whether I should have my hopes high or low but during lives and tours is when a band gets much inspiration to write songs from past experience and we have a single as a "preview" to the set of skills Versailles plans on bringing to the table with this new album.

[Number Girl 48]

But to be honest... Holy Grail wasn't that brilliant, I agree. But i'm scared about english songs... They've said, they will make more songs with english lyrics.. That could be a tragedy, I think. But anyway, it's still nice...!

For reaaaaaal??? :/

I'm so tired of English songs. They haven't gotten any better since Revenant Choir.

[ShanethVarosa 1209]

I personally love the English lyrics. I hope that they are going to do a few of them on the album. It could use some work, but I do like listening to it.

I'm dying for the titles of these singles, though, seriously.

Just curious Hyato, when/where did they say that they would be doing more "songs with english lyrics"?

I think Kamijo has undoubtedly improved his Engrish since the first version of Revenant Choir. That wasn't even Engrish, just ingurishu. I could at least understand a few lines in "Love Will Be Born Again." HOWEVER, it's still not on a level (imo) where I think he should be singing full songs. It's still waaay too clumsy sounding.

In any case, I've been re-listening to Versailles (it's been a while) and I'm definitely looking forward to the new stuff. I hope we get the official announcement soon though. April is just around the corner.

It was, afair, when they were in Russia... If I find the source, I'll give a link. It was an interview with Kamijo.

Yeah, its not so much his grammar or word usage I dislike, as much as it is his accent and the way it makes his voice sound . . .

[Peace Heavy mk II 7200]

I think Kamijo just tweeted about the singles!

おなかすいた

Oh wait, he's just hungry

[Prophet 168]

lol i have to agree with everyone that Holy Grail was a meh, but that doesnt change my high expectation for their upcoming stuffs, well i keep believing that they will create impressive music and songs.

I hate the chorus, it builds up all this energy and does nothing with it.

YEAH, FOR REAL! Wtf!

[Trombe 22025]

their new digital single "Rhapsody of the Darkness" (lyrics: KAMIJO / composer: HIZAKI) & "Illusion" (lyrics & composer: KAMIJO) will be released at 2012/04/25

[sai 868]

The one they played on the live? So it's only digital with two songs? I hope it'll be on US iTunes! I'm more excited for Illusion tbqh, lately I've been digging Kamijo's songs more than Hizaki's.

[Peace Heavy mk II 7200]

Are they two single-track singles or is it considered a double-A side?

Even though the first one's name is kind of corny, I hope its similar to "Love From a Dead Orchestra," but I know it won't be

[fitear1590 2414]

Cool, finally some more information!

I hope they'll be available on the various international iTunes stores, and not just in Japan.

[Pretsy 1343]

Looking forward to Kamijo's composition. I am not sure what to expect from that cheesy-titled song tho...

[Rize 1593]

Yes, it will be on Itunes. Hizaki just tweeted:

Versailles New Digital Single「 Rhapsody of the Darkness」,「 Illusion」April 25,2012 . iTunes他、各携帯・PCサイトにて配信スタート!!

[ShanethVarosa 1209]

FUCK YEAH!! Way excited!!!! No matter how it sounds, I'm sure I'll like it. I love both of their compositions equally. It's Teru's that are usually hit-or-miss with me, so I'm kind of relieved he doesn't have one on here. I'll be buying it on American iTunes for sure.

[LIDL 692]

Rhapsody of the darkness sounds like good.

Could it be a more than 6 minutes song?

Anything that named with Rhapsody should at least be 10 minutes!

But since it's a single, i am not sure about that.

Well, just a guessing after all.
