Haha yep it's very simular. If you're going to give him a chance I'd suggest starting with his Mizerable EP first. If you enjoy that check out Malice Mizer's Merveilles (his band before this, masterpiece), this and Rebirth. After that it's optional, big drop in quality in my opinion. His older material is nothing like his later hard rock songs like Jesus.

Been meaning to check this guy out for a loooooong time, he had some rocking songs in 'Dirge of Cerberus Final Fantasy VII' and there's a character in the FFVII Compilation that is modeled after him (Genesis, I think)

@LepreCon: You are correct, and yes those songs are great. If you like those you're in for a treat.

Diabolos and Re:Born are worth hearing, don't know the mid-section of his catalogue.

For the love of all that is divine, Emu~for my dear~ has one of the most touching vocal melodies I've ever heard from Gackt. The beauteous atmosphere coupled with the brief moment of silence during the middle of that song doesn't hurt, either.



The red in that cover art is very flavorful, I must say.

Good god, I think aside from maybe U+K this is a completely perfect album. Only didn't insta-5 it because I have a policy of not doing that right away.

Yay! Glad to see this is getting love, and this just gets better every listen. Didn't like the nyaa nyaa's Aaron? Since you loved this is suggest doing the advice I gave Key.

The nyaa nyaa's are better than literally every single album you've 5'd Green Baroniscrunchy

Yeah, it was the 'nyaa's', how did you guess? :P But yeah, I'm definitely on that advice - thanks for rec'ing this!

@IhateMana I'm not an alt ;]

Because I can't imagine you not liking anything else, I mean the bongos in that rising chorus and Gackt's divine voice at 2:35 are heaven. Mizerable is basically 18 minutes of perfection and Merveilles....well I'll let you get to that ;)

To be fair, the nyaa's were the only bit that raised an eyebrow - the rest of the song is definitely a winner. Picking a highlight from my first few listens is tough. Real tough.

If it was me despite loving every track my winner has got to go to freesia op 1 and 2 together. Not only it's pretty much the perfect transistion between both sides of the album but as it's own piece I think it's the best Gackt has ever written.
