SEX BLOOD ROCK N' ROLL interview

[mei_24]

*EDIT*
On Barks English site there’s an official translation of this interview, with more interesting info about the album. Although I believe I haven’t made really big mistakes here, it’s obviously better to read a flawless professional work. Be sure to check K.A.Z’s interview, too ^^

No, I’m not really supposed to do it now. But when I happened

That "my last peak" give me weird feeling >____< but at the end of intv he said he will still move forward for world wide market right? >.<)

[mei_24]

Aaahh my mistake here! In Japanese and in my native language "last" and "latest" are the same word, but not in English. Here it's really "my latest peak". I'll fix it. I'm sorry if my mistake caused you trouble m(_ _)m

About the other line, I'm not 100% sure about translation, but I think he's simply saying he will do something for Japanese market in the future, like before. Nothing to worry about ;)

[annui]

Ah then I'm all happy! XD
It's just the word "last" give me some sad anticipation ^^;; but glad it apparently "latest". He really very passionate about VAMPS ne and I'm all suporting him!
I hope he will go to my country too (if possible haha)

Btw, how was the Barcelona live? I saw some pics and fancams, it looked sooo much fun! >0<)o

[mei_24]

Sorry for making you worry ^^;
Well, in VAMPS he's really passionate and does a lot of work. I think he knows he can't manage to go on like this forever, but in this interview he talks about past achievements, not about the future.

Barcelona was really wild! It was amazing \(^0^)/ I'll probably do a report sooner or later.
The sold a t-shirt (looks similar to their "best of" special edition t-shirt) and in the back it's officially written: VAMPS WORLD TOUR 2013, but without any city. Maybe nothing is officially fixed yet. So, as HYDE said in this interview, he'll add new countries soon. Hoping yours will be included too ^_-

Thanks for the translation of this long interview! I'm very curious how the album will turn out, remixed and re-vocaled. I had to get a bit used to Ahead and Replay I have to say, the two songs took a bit of time in my case until I liked them. Meanwhile I like to listen to Ahead a lot in the car on my way to work to build up my energy hahaha.
Unfortunateky I haven't got enough money to attend the Berlin live this year so I hope to read a lot of reports, from all venues of course ;).
Hope you are fine & enjoy Barcelona!

Hello my dear ^^ thanks for your nice comment! it brings me back memories of Paris live in 2010! I'm sorry you can't go to any live this time, but I'm sure they'll be back soon. What a good way to start the working day you have! HYDE would approve ;)
I have still mixed feelings about their new singles, especially about Replay.
I'm curious about how their all-English-lyrics live will sound. I hope they play their new song!
Hope you are fine too and are enjoying your life ^^

[nagaokagetora]

Thanks, dear! I'm quite fine, only very busy all the time with work and kids

[mei_24]

Awww you seem very busy, dear. Being a working mother is really tough, ne? But don't worry about lives. i believe vamps, miyavi, inoran and the others will come back to Europe sooner or later. I remember last year i missed inoran's concert because i got to know it the day after the live >< and yes i saw luna sea in 2010 just after vamps.that was really a tour de force. I still prefer luna sea activity over members' solo.i don't know sugizo that well, now that you mention him i think i'll give him a try :)
About ahead/replay i cannot agree more with you!! i hope new song will grow more on me. still no news about release..
Thanks for your warming words~
Greetings from barcelona <3

[yuki_kumi]

thank you very much <333

[mei_24]

Not at all ^^ thank you for taking the time to comment, I appreciate it :)

[tsuki_626]

interesting interview. glad you went ahead and translated and posted it. i hope they will hit the mark this time to HYDE's satisfaction. surely following so quickly after L'Arc will be to their advantage.

thanks so much! :D

[mei_24]

thank you so much for your kind words :)
i'm happy he treasures his dream, i hope he gets what he's searching for.
but on the other hand i wish L'Arc to come back soon...
