So far, i liked 'MASQUERADE'. It's really a beautiful song. But, after hearing the samples for the album, i'm a bit dissapointed too :smhid. Like haters always said "a lot of their songs always sounded similar in my ears", that's the point. They need to experiment more with their currently music. Put some Jazzy tone or Reggae riff for example or go back to indie era sound. Now I just hope the album as a whole will be better.  :bow:
Vampire PV is really crappy, btw. shameful for major band. :thumbdown:

owwh, the Poster is really cool :w00t:

The album is better than I expected from the previews, but nowhere near as good as any of their previous ones. I like the singles best. Remember Forever and the first 6 minutes of Faith are great too. The ballad in English... a bit too much  :nervous

I also feel they could've integrated some of the instrumental bits a bit better... For example:
- Treshold could've been made into a proper song.
- The destiny intro sounds like an ending
- The theme of the holy grails seems a bit disney-esque and short as well...

Yup, the full album actually sounds better than we expected :twothumbs

My favourite songs are (skipped singles):
1. MASQUERADE - Love the chorus and great outro. Really addictive song :heart: :heart: :heart:
2. Flowery - Sounds really nice. Love the guitar solo part and double pedal are great.  :thumbup
3. Remember Forever - Nice Ballad, but i think this song will became "one-shot" listen for me :nervous
4. Love will be born again - Haha, i love this song so much. Really beautiful acoustic guitar, and Kamijo's engrish is so lovely :love:
5. Faith & Decision - Loooooooooong Song. Just liked the instrumental part :grin:

And I think "The Theme of Holy Grail" could've been better if they put this as intro for the album.

Rating: 8/10

^They got new guitars!

New live DVD announced!!

CDJapan

Quote
Live DVD release from a visual kei band Versailles featuring performance of their "World Tour 2010 - Method of Inheritance - Grand Final - Chateau de Versailles" held at Shibuya C.C. Lemon Hall on September 4, 2010. Limited edition includes a bonus disc with closeup footage of their playing instruments.

edit: wait a sec... that's already a year old! They released some of that as a bonus to Philia.

I was hoping for Holy Grail tour footage, but I guess that Tour is still going on.
