Luna Sea released a string of highly influential and critically acclaimed albums in the early 90s. As a simple generalisation, it was Japan making up for missing out on the glam rock scene that took the western world by storm. Alongside their Godfathers X Japan and other legendary groups such as the enormously popular gothic post punk group BUCK-TICK and symphonic titans Malice Mizer, they pioneered the Visual-Kei scene a movement where bands dress up in flamboyant costumes and sport flashy hairstyles. Luna Sea were, not to say that to some extent they still aren’t, right at the top of Japanese rock music. Review Summary: The result of Luna Sea staring at their own bright light for too long.
