Versailles Are Back

Hey all,

This post is a side bar from my upcoming posts and my post “Music Part 2.” Is long over due.

Today before noon Versailles UK street team posted a video from youtube and a quote “Our clan's blood will nonstop forever.” With the Youtube video.

As many people that know me Versailles are my all-time favourite band. I’ve seen them live and was lucky to meet them, and I also got the chance to show them my tattoo, which was 2^nd October 2011. It’s was priceless, but in 2012 they announced that they was going on hiatus at the end of the year, which really hurt me as before I heard their music I wasn’t in a great place mentally. I was always depressed, wasn’t having a great home life and having the worst time at work. I also became aggressive not really to people but I was hitting walls, metal cabinets so I probably imagine I wasn’t great to be around at that time also.

That’s where Versailles came in when I found them. My first song I heard off them was called Zombie which I fell in love with and over time I started to listen to their music. I couldn’t understand the lyrics apart from the few songs they did sing in English as the rest was in Japanese, but you could sense what the music was about without translating the lyrics. I felt warm, happy and chilled and soon I slowly started to feel better mentally, but had that other help when I started to study Bushido.

I felt motivated by their music and they was regularly blasted out of my headphones everyday walking to work or in my house (I rarely listen to music through speakers, it’s something I find personal and listen to it full blast through my headphones)

Even after they broke up 3 years ago I still listen to them loads, they are also the only band where I have bought all their music hard copy and bought their tour collections. The last concert they did I spent over £100 which I got a hand signed pamphlet. Since then it’s all been about following them on twitter, Facebook, Teru’s blog and other social media formats. I’ve never given up hope for them to get back. I knew that they would at some point they would, as they’ve been a part of each other’s concerts and I think Teru, Hizaki, Yuki and Masashi recorded with Kamijo in some of his solo work. I know Masashi toured with Kamijo. I know he was on Kamijo’s European tour which I should have gone to watch when he was in London.  

Last month Jupiter’s website announced that Yuki and Masashi was leaving the band and will play their last concert next April 2016, with both saying they want to continue and expand on their work as bass and drummer. That kind of hit me thinking… “This must be a sign that Versailles are getting back together.”

Then I get the news on Versailles. Is this great news to end what was a crappy year?

We will have to wait till 28^th December 2015. I will probably have another post on this when it gets announced haha.

If I don’t post anything before 25^th December I wish you all a Merry Christmas. For my main present I suppose I will have to wait till the 28^th J
