seikun 317 Posted July 12, 2013 Wow, that preview is promising! Even for someone like me to whom Kamijos main appeal is that he's unintentionally funny... a lot. But there is a Malice Mizer flavour in this, much more than in Manas other works actually. The english speaking voice kills it, though. Maybe an english accent would suit better I guess...

miyuu 40 Posted July 12, 2013 W Even for someone like me to whom Kamijos main appeal is that he's unintentionally funny... a lot. lol. i think this for like 98% of visual kei. (but i guess i am amused because i still like vkei and listen) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBistroButcher666 228 Posted July 13, 2013 The redundancy of the narration is really silly. Announce the date and then tell us COMING SOON! I hope we get a rad MM styled Voyage Sans retour release. I'm more interested in this because of Mana, I think Kamijo and Mana will be great together, especially because they're both Frenchaphiles so I bet this will be a cool release.

lichtlune 915 Posted July 15, 2013 although i prefer kamijo personally way more. i think on of the pro's of jupiter is they kinda look more youthful. i think my opinion shouldn't matter too much. because i am not a big fan and they (kamijo&jupiter) should do /listen what most of their fans want. but i am getting tired of this endlessly unchanging style. i was so excited when i thought maybe he would do something else. with less visuals. he still looks fine and can definitely pull it off the vampire thing . but until when is he going to do the same thing.(until 70?) i am getting a little tired. i m not sure if he has the voice though for less visuals to succed. i think the biggest pro of kamijo is his personality and appearance for this (haven't seen anyone who can compete with him in that) I never believed in the whole "oh i have brown hair now, i'm without makeup and i'm more casual i must much more mature now!" i personally wouldn't care if he did this in his 70s besides vampires don't age right?

lichtlune 915 Posted July 16, 2013 I hope Grazioso isn't a cheap low budget pv like when Versailles released two pv's on one album... I wonder when we'll get a preview of that pv? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miyuu 40 Posted July 17, 2013 I never believed in the whole "oh i have brown hair now, i'm without makeup and i'm more casual i must much more mature now!" i personally wouldn't care if he did this in his 70s besides vampires don't age right? it's not about maturity. it's not that my problem. it's just that i am bored to seeing always exactly the same image without any change. i felt this because i was excited when i thought maybe they split up and now i'll see something different from him. and end up seing the same versailles voice/visuals . sometimes when you get with less or different visuals it's interesting or even when you grow older it's interesting,sometimes it's just bad choice. but as i said he better do what his better fans want(not me) (edit:you can be childish in all ages even 70 and you should have fun. it's not about being childish. but you have to accept that you are old and Reconcile with your age,or else if you try to pretend you are younger you seem pathetic. and this is NOT for kamijo, i am thinking other artists. the difference from being childish and try to pretend you are 20 years younger is big) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sucza-san 3 Posted July 25, 2013 This is literally A W E S O M E. I thought that he will release some "Love Will Be Born Again Vol. 2" stuff, but this is dark and intensive. Gotta love it. Well done, KAMIJO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rosà 37 Posted July 25, 2013 Much, much better than Jupiter and viel much better than expected. I see Mana influences. But it's good. Wanna hear more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seikun 317 Posted July 26, 2013 In the morning (over here) Kamijo posted up a sample of Enketsu no la vie en rose (or something like that). I kind of liked it. It reminded me of Versailles by the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peace Heavy mk II 7200 Posted July 26, 2013 https://soundcloud.com/kamijo/louis It's like Ascendead Master + Bel Air with teh most Lareine-ish vocals he's used in about 5 years.

seikun 317 Posted July 27, 2013 I listen to the sample's intro and I can't help picturing Mana-sama dancing the way he used to do when he was in Malice Mizer looking the same he used to^^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoseOfHizaki 131 Posted July 27, 2013 the more i think about the whole versailles breakup and read into Kamijo and the other band members activities after the break up, im starting to think there was a little in house argument or debate on which direction the band should go - I quite liked the 'The Revenant Choir' era of versailles as it was what got me into versailles in the first place but in the end they kind of deviated from that and went more 'commercial' when they went major. maybe the rest of the members wanted a return to the original sound but kamijo didnt want?

lichtlune 915 Posted July 27, 2013 The preview is great but i still don't understand why kamijo must sing this way has he forgotten how well he's capable of singing? his lyrical sympathy voice was perfect why in the hell did he change it? is he still able to sing like that? am i alone when i say he sang better than he ever did pre-DESTINY-The Lovers? it seems after ascendead master he changed some how. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syDc-nFxsAw Just listen how beautiful! why can't you see this kamijo? find your true voice again!
