The Third GACKT Thread

[kaggy87]

the songs in these best album are all re-arranged in a new version; he has said in his blog *-*

[BlackSilence]

some of those songs have been rearanged a few times already. Tho i am curious what can he do with them more than what he alreaduy did.

btw here are the covers if somene hadn't seen those.

CD+blu-ray/DVD

I am just sad that LONGING was overlooked again
Oh well now to think should i buy this...hmmm?

[kimmeh]

Huh?? I would have guessed it to be the opposite. Why does the WILD cover have white angel wing and the MILD one black demon wing?

I agree about Longing, it's one of my favs. I remember I squealed when I was playing Dirge of Cerberus and the song was played at the end. Looooveeee.

Even though I'm not superhappy about the setlist - at least it's new arrangements and vocals. Non any of that lazy stuff Ayu loves doing with just putting the original songs in album with a random cover.

that should be the question giver to GACKT himeself, i personally have no idea why the covers are like an oposite of what the title means xD

[BlackSilence]

i've got possed i think.... after watching this.....

[mi|kshake]

Might thinking about picking up one of the best ofs - which one would you recommend?

The albums I own are Mars, Diabolos & Crescent. One of my fave Gackt songs is Emu ~for my dear~. I don't mind owning any of the same songs again, especially as they are rearrangements.

[kimmeh]

Really depends if you like his rock themed or soft themed songs. I prefer the rock songs, so I'm going for WILD, even though I like the cover art of MILD better

[kimmeh]

What happened to his eyebrows o_o

[BlackSilence]

lol eyebrows again xD i think they just didn't pencil them in for the dramatic purposes, they are THERE i can see them xD i actually like it like this on him >)

[Mary-Tina]

BEST OF THE BEST CM:

[BlackSilence]

^ ANOTHER WORLD & VANILLA are rerecorded tracks. There's really not many of the rerecorded ones. The arangements are the same. In VANILLA tho u can clearly hear that the vocals are new. I can't tell teh difference in ANOTHER WORLD, maybe a slightly bit but not much.

[kimmeh]

I hear a clear difference in both. Like the another world one, dislike the vanilla one. It didn't need the Ayu-style vibrato :/

[thinkingoutloud89]

so which ones are rerecorded? have to mark them with a different name

[BlackSilence]

um here ya go the rerecorded tracks on each album:

MILD - 絵夢~FOR MY DEAR~, LAST SONG-UNPLUGGED-, VANILLA, キミのためにできること (Kimi no Tame ni Dekiru Koto), MISSING~笑顔を見せて~
WILD - DOOMSDAY, DEATH WISH, BLACK STONE, ANOTHER WORLD

i personally only looking farward to hear Last Song. The rest i prefere in his rough early vocals. you can check the previews here


BTW, the Sakura, chiru.....YOHIO is actually credited as a co-writter of the song....i was not happy about this....

[BlackSilence]

so i'm bringing this thread back.

Some exciting things.

New single ARROW has been released a few days ago:


Next is...New album after 7 years that is scheduled for release upcoming spring, titled LAST MOON. Which is going to be a part of his new and the last visualive which should kick in right after it. It is also the last chapter in the MOON project that he has been doing for years now.




i actually hope we'll get an other single or two, cuz that would be a long-ass wait =/

[Corvina]

So, how are the chances the tour next year is going to be expanded globally? As you mentioned it in the download thread.

And btw. does 'the last visualize' mean his last tour?
Or just this kind of tour? I'm not that familiat with his concert history.

[pheonixflame15]

Thank god this thread got revived. I'm excited for a new album although the last few singles haven't really been impressive with the exception of ARROW. Gimme another Redemption!

[AyumiAi]

YESSS!! I was looking for this thread forever when I saw his CD at the store the other day I was like OMFG WAIT HE HAS A NEW SINGLE but I couldnt find it anywhere.

The song is pretty good!

[jean-baptiste]

FINALLY!! I thought a new album would never come.

I thought he'd forgotten about the MOON project. I sure did lol
