L'Arc~en~Ciel / VAMPS / HYDE otaku from overseas. Handcrafting songs @fxojo_

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

I’ve been listening to VAMPS a lot these few days. It so happens that a friend is starting up a band again so I submitted a song that I wrote a few days ago that’s heavily inspired by EVANESCENT 🙈

[ojo @fxojo_]

The first song that I intentionally wrote for a friend's band has returned to me. They have nurtured my child well. We'll see if it graduates.

@yukkurifairies He literally could’ve been a model

Similarly like L’Arc~en~Ciel’s Anemone, HYDE’s A Drop of Colour has this lush instrumentation that gives off this James Bond vibe, like a grand opening scene expanding on an exotic location

@RevilFalls This is such a cool shot

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@cruelreigns Yoooo. You got to watch Plastic Tree live? That would’ve been so awesome!

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@Ryotaro666_ The Metropolis remix by Yukihiro was the first time I thought, “Wow. Remixes can be really interesting stories of their own after all”

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@Ceres1st_Neo You worded it perfectly! 👏 The lone violin that starts off the song really elevates the melancholic sound further. Even visually, the atmosphere looks so perfect. I can’t imagine what it would’ve been like to be part of the audience of the show 🥹

“My voice is reaching the sky.
I’ll do anything to save this life.
Take me instead…” - HYDE

Such incredibly powerful lyrics that matches the intensity of this gothic rock song. What an amazing opener to FAITH

@RiceAndTruth Speaking of “FAITH,” I personally feel that VAMPS' arrangement on “MTV Unplugged” really brings out the song's unique atmosphere, so lately I've been listening to the backing track of that arrangement first, and then jumping right into the original version of “FAITH”! ⬇️🤭lol

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@Ceres1st_Neo Oh yes! I never appreciated the MTV Unplugged album but having listen to it properly recently, it’s a truly an incredible re-imagination of the already amazing songs

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@Ryotaro666_ It’s truly incredible. It’s rock in essence but so different from 666

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@vKINOKOv Me too. Sometimes when the sun is shining so brightly, we look away from it for a moment but end up missing its glorious news 🥹 Looks like such an incredible live

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@A1KSEqmZRLi6dnQ Do you mind sharing more please?

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@seolhyunsimps Oh nice! Must be an album that holds lots of memories for you. Haha. Curious to see why you didn’t enjoy his other albums after that?

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@HYDESHAWTY Not to mention that HIDEO KOJIMA is a huge fan of HYDE 😬

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@vamppearl Woah! HYDE-san with kei-san!

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@SwamXu It’s truly beautiful and masterful playing

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@iansluvr That look 🧛🏻

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@mamimamisf This sight is even more rare than a blue moon 🥹

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@_Anna_butterfly It’s like opening the door to a garden of beautiful greenery where nature and technology coexists. This seems only possible by a band that paints pictures with sound 🤭

[j 🌈 🥀 @RiceAndTruth]

@HYDESHAWTY I definitely can appreciate that view and fully respect it. From my interaction with @iansluvr, I’ll definitely be more mindful in the future 🙏

VAMPS in the style of One Piece 😬
