new L'Arc~En~Ciel single

May 28, 2011 07:29 am

there's a new L'Arc~En~Ciel single, yaaaaay! it's the theme for the new Fullmetal Alchemist movie (which also deserves a yaaaaaay! love fma) i'd say it sounds pretty similar to the style of their last album which was hit or miss for me, some songs were great some were "blah", but so far i like this song. I'm just happy to see the boys together, i hate when they take breaks for other projects. i don't mind VAMPS but i much much prefer L'Arc and i'm not a fan of the other guys' side projects at all >.<

nothing special about the vid really but i'm soooo glad HYDE ditched the blond frazzled looking hair he had in the last few VAMPS videos, it makes him look older and.. tired i guess. his hair in this vid makes him look 10 years younger. and glad to see his awkward dance moves haven't changed :D

Amazing as always. And it reminds me of Shine. It feels very like them.

Wow, thank you for the link Lady! :D
I must quote Skye: amazing as usual! Love the incipit and the guitar opening.
As for the hair... I confess I like the blond Hyde too. He could dye it green, I'd like him anyway. :D

haha yeah you're right Rita, no matter what fashion disasters he comes up with he's still a hottie
and Skye you're right, it is like Shine, i couldn't put my finger on it, that's totally it.

I really like the instrumental parts of this single, especially the guitar. I think I may be in love, lol. Like Skye and Lady noted, the vocal part was good, but it does kinda sound like something I've heard before.

Sidenote: even though his hair isn't my fave in this video, I totally agree with all the sexy Hyde comments. He has very feminine features and seems kinda twisted, which i think is a hot combo, regardless of whatever he does to his look, hehe. That said, I don't actually think he's the hottest in the group.

really?? who do you think is the hottest in the group? i don't find any of the other members especially attractive lol. Yukihiro sometimes has his moments but in general Hyde is def the hottie of the group lol

I really think in this video and the promo photos for it that Hyde somehow looks younger than he has in a while (must be the hair, or he got 'work' done lol) but I've been really digging his more mature look from the last couple of tours. I think the Awake tour is my favourite look for him, though I do enjoy some of his stranger hairstyles in MVs and such (Killing Me, Link, and yeah even Seventh Heaven even though it's not one of their best songs or videos haha)

anything's better than the dorky short haircut he had waaaay back when..
like when he met his wife haha (really cute/awkward video lol)

hehe even with the strange asymmetrical bob, he looks hot. It's is fine facial features i think. They are very delicate and his face is perfectly symmetrical. I wouldn't be surprised if his hair in the second video is like his natural hair because I'm convinced he's hafu/double. He looks very spanish.

As for the other members, the one i think is sexiest switches between Yukihiro and Ken. Hyde is the most beautiful, but I don't find him attractive. He would make a perfect study subject for a painter or sculptor. His look can be quite hypnotizing/mesmerizing at times.

it's 24 hours, so i'm sure you'll be able to catch some of it.

I read somewhere that the live hour broadcast will be during the final hour, which will definitely be worth staying up for if you don't have to go to work/school, hehe. I also wonder how much (if any) of the 24 hour broadcast will be repeated.

I know this thread is about the new single. Should we keep everyone up to date here or start a new thread?
