Thanks for the reaction :) Since you asked what the song is about: it's a tribute to their previous bass player, who suddenly died in 2009. When they formed the band, it was their dream to one day play in the Nippon Budokan, which they finally archived with this performance.

That makes so much sense. I felt so moved and sad by his singing.

@jesuismila9673 7 ай бұрын

I didn’t see anyone write, but this performance took place in an arena where artists are invited, and they must prove that they are “worthy of performing there.” Therefore, at the very beginning, everyone took turns demonstrating their abilities in solo. And only then does the composition itself begin with singer. And so - Versailles is one huge love of mine. ❤ You need to feel them, imagine yourself as a sad old vampire in one of the anime, and waste your days listening to music) maybe their faces are emotionless, masked, but they all speak through their instruments. And this is enough to understand, love and share their feelings with them.🤟

Thanks for checking out Versailles (it's Ver-sigh, as in the old French royal palace). I came across these guys about 12 years ago, they were instantly my favorite band ever. Everyone talkes about Midori/Miyako, but Hizaki and Teru are every bit a top guitar duo as you'll find. Their goal is "aesthetically beautiful metal music," If you get into the neo-classical metal genre, this band is for you. "Faith and Decision" os a bit hard to digest and get a sense of their overall musical style if it's your first listen to them. I highly recommend, "Ascendead Master," "Aristocrat's Symphony," "The Red-Carpet Day," "Rose" "Suzerain."

Look my friend, please don't take this first impressions of Versailles as the whole Versailles experience....I say this because people usually recommend Holly Grail songs, I have listened to all their albums, so I'm going to recommend other perspectives: -Love from a dead orchestra [Lyrical Sympathy] -God Palace [Jubilee] -Zombie [Noble] -Rose [Versailles] -Lineage [Lineage] -Wrath of Thunder [Vogue] •New release 2023•

This was awesome! Gave me a Unlucky Morpheus x Storm Seeker vibe. Sucks for me that I haven't been able to keep up with the channel lately because of being exhausted by my heart failure. The nasty is that my ICD (implanted cardiac defibrillator) fired twice last night, so I had to be hospitalized yet again.

@istvanmady7332 3 ай бұрын

I am not sure if you translated the lyrics and realised the fact, that this is practically a mourning song. However, the reaction clearly confirmed another fact that songs like this are literally magical - it means, even we do not understand the lyrics, but the music sends a subconscious message, and we receive it. It wakes up something we cannot define but it is there... this is the greatest achievement of masterpieces like this. I wrote it was a mourning song - indeed, it is, but a kind which tells you do not be devastated by the loss, but celebrate the life of the loved one. Greetings, I.

Yeah you got to give them a chance! I know it could feel uncomfortable at first but they have good stuff to offer. Maybe masquerade live next? Hope you do at least a couple of songs of them!

I liked it! I was getting Castlevania or Captain Harlock vibes, very cool! I'm not going to suggest them on Patreon, but if you've never heard Dir En Grey they are pretty badass. Songs I like (with videos) Lotus, The Final, and Uroko (really shows singer Kyo's sick range!). Just a warning though, I've got a pretty ironclad stomach, but some of their other videos made me feel like throwing up a lil. lol 🤘🤘

The costumes were a bit over-the-top, but maybe that is the point. You have to admire the Japanese culture of constantly pursuing perfection.

Great reaction. :) If you like it maybe you will liie another symphonic metal band 摩天楼オペラ (Matenrou Opera), there is amazing live performance of their song "喝采と激情のグロリア" (Kassai to Gekijou no Gloria) from their 16th anniversary live from this year, amazing performance. I hope you will react to it. :) And also to Girugämesh which I recommended some time ago. ;)

Oh, I missed your reation to these guys. Visual Kei is very strange to a westerner and Versailles can be a tad too much over the top, but it really is great hooks and melodies performed with expert musicianship. Please check out some of their other stuff, it is great symphonic metal. 😀

Wow, that was a lot to digest. Technically superb but a little much, perhaps tho that is what they were going for. The vocals however kicked it up a notch. I have no idea what they were saying, but it sounded like longing and sadness. Not something that would go on my playlist, but good to see once. ❤ and ✌️

@marting.h.9417 7 ай бұрын

Versailles is another amazing Japanese metal band but it could be that westerners don’t appreciate this kind of performance because, in my honest opinion, the majority of them are so closed minded. East Europe, Asia and Latinamerica people are more open minded.

@WNYretiree 8 ай бұрын

The musicality was awesome. Everyone knew their job. Almost too well, as a matter of fact. There was a kind of mechanical aura to the actual performance. I found myself wishing that they would just feel the music a bit more. I did like the vocalist, and felt that the performance improved when he began to sing. I dithered around looking them up and it says that they are a visual kei band. I didn't know what that was, so I look it up, and I still don't understand it. All in all, I don't feel like listening to them was a waste of my time, but I won't be listening on a regular basis.

@Croz76 8 ай бұрын

I think Visual Kei really started out as Glam Rock like New York Dolls or early Poison, Cinderella etc , but over the years artists have really pushed the boundaries of what the genre can be. Going really heavy like Deviloof for example or epic like this song. 😊

@Vitericus1 8 ай бұрын

Well, I'd have to respectfully disagree--massively. I've been playing guitar and writing music (well trying at least) for 30 years and I've never heard as much emotion go into guitar playing as much as I've heard with Hizaki, at least not with Neo-Classical shredders, and especially with his solo albums. Visual kei is just "visual style" which is adding a theatrical visual element to the performance. Versailles' theme is 'aristocratic vampires at the court of Versailles'--think Le Chevalier D'Eon, if you've seen that anime, and the music/theme will make more sense. Seriously, I highly recommend Versailles if you like Neo-classical metal or similar--they are at the top of the pack and highly influential in Japan and Latin America. "Ascendead Master," "Aristocrat's Symphony," "Rose." Hizaki solo: "Race Wish," "Rosary Sonata," "Grace and Dignity." He's done some live shows with Jill from Unlucky Morpheus.

I agree, sometimes less is more. I mean awesome solos don't get me wrong, but i feel it's packing in as many notes as they can in a solo.. i marvel at the talent but my ears can't take it. When the vocals started tho, i think it lifted the song up tremendously.
