Should definitely get on that video, beautiful to watch and that re-recorded Aku is a fucking anthem, love it. Which albums have you checked in full?



The live DVD for 13kai is quite possibly the hardest 5 of all time, not a single thing wrong with it.

Taboo, Kurutta, DTD, Six|Nine (also reviewed it here), Cosmos, Sexy Stream Liner, 13kai, Memento Mori, Yume Miru Uchuu - all more then once.



Once or twice tops - Seventh Heaven, Aku No Hana (the LP), One Life One Death, Mona Lisa Overdrive, Tenshi No Revolver, Razzle Dazzle. They tend to write pretty long albums so it can be a chore if there's not much exciting stuff going on.



A handful from other LPs, not counting Koroshi No Shitabe.

Yeah, the 13kai DVD is pretty damn spectacular, although I think they could do it even more balls-to-the-wall extravagant and be better for it. The live performance of Passion was in and on itself a little masterpiece.

Damn you only got 4 albums to go and you checked them all.



"although I think they could do it even more balls-to-the-wall extravagant and be better for it."



How on earth can they do it better than they already did? They can't, adding anymore would have cluttered the set. Perfect amount of imagery.

It has the perfect amount of theatricality. It definitely feels like a play mixed with a concert.

Maybe so. There's no knowing for sure since it happened the way it did. For what it is, it's a kickass show.

Yeah kind of the whole point, you wouldn't see a play with more theatrics than that. A hint of subtlety helped yet it's more theatrics than any other show you'll watch unless you watch a Malice Mizer live.

Just did a quick search and saw the singer of Malice Mizer floating on wires with black wings attached.

Aight.

I'm really curious to see how they recorded Yuuwaku. It's got such a convincing old timey feel to it.
