Another Masterpiece Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
Though this may not be my favorite Gackt album, all of his work is simply amazing. This album includes some of my favorite tracks such as Tsuki no Uta (favorite Gackt track of all time) + Hoshi no Suna, (check out my review from the single with these 2 tracks) and ‘Orenji no Taiyou (feat. Hyde)’ from the Moon Child Movie.

‘Last Song’ is a track I used to constantly have on repeat when I was in middle school. It’s pure acoustics and Gackt’s voice used to sooth me when I was having a hard time. This song holds some of my most precious memories for me.

‘Birdcage’ is a nice alto track with a mixture of violins and acoustics. It feels as if the song is weaving together a folktale. The song is soothing until exactly halfway through, the rock comes in with a blast of emotion. Gackt has this amazing ability of expressing passion at the most unpredictable times in songs and this is a perfect example. As if trapped in a birdcage, he suddenly yearns to be free.

Overall, this is another amazing album. It’s very hard to rank Gackt albums because all of them are amazing, but I guess listeners have to choose favorites in order to rank them because the talent stays strong with every album release.

This album only carries about 5-6 favorites compared to past albums where all the songs became my favorites. So, in comparison, this is a 4/5 out of preference. However, talent is still 5/5.

His Best Album Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Words cannot describe how much I adore this CD. Ive owned it for a number of years now and I still play it very regularly. In my opinion this is Gackts best work and his voice is at its incredible best too. This man is a musical genius and from heart rendering ballad to all out rock tune this CD impresses massively. There is nobody quite like Gackt and im pretty sure there never will be anyone like him. If you love beautiful emotional vocals and gorgeous songs complimented by guitar, piano, violin etc then you will enjoy this. A superb piece of real "class".

Gackt's Best Album! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
If by now you have decided to set foot into the fandom of Gackt, this is the CD to get. Gackt is at his best with all the rock ballads. My favorite Tracks are 3, 4, 6, Mind Forest, The Last Song and Birdcage. I've rated this CD with all 5 stars with the exception of Dybbuk, Solitary and White Eyes which are 4 stars tracks. Gackt shows a lot of emotions and feelings in The Last Song, the moon & star tracks (Tracks 3 & 4). I like him best when he is not straining his vocals. Gackt is an amazing composer and singer. You have to listen to Lust For Blood, a track which is mysterious, atmospheric, sad and powerful. Gackt, the 'Vampire' shows all his attractiveness and mysticism. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I'm sure you will find other favorites from him.

Excellent piece of work Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This cd is the best gackt has put out. For fans who are not familiar with him, this is definitely the cd to check out for besides the sixth day which is a compilation of his top singles. On first listen, you're sure hooked on and will be a gackt fan.

Perfect Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Every song on this CD has a great melody, singing and music. There is not one song that I don't like, though I can understand why fans don't like "Dybbuk", I think the song is cool. My favorite songs on the album are "White Eyes", "mind forest", "Lust for Blood", "Birdcage", "Last song" and "Hoshi no suna". The album exclusive tracks are better than the single ones, I owned the singles before this and listened to them so many times that the album exclusive tracks made the album totally worth it.

I'm sorry Customer Review Rated Bad 5 - 5 out of 10
But Gackt just doesn't appeal to me. I've heard at least 4 of his songs, and I just...sorry, I don't like him that much. I can understand why others do. DEEP DEEP voices like that are freaky...but I'm just saying!

AMAZING Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This album is simply amazing! Tracks like Mind Forest and Kimi ga Matteiru Kara simply take yu away to a new world with their beautiful instrumentation. Gackt is at his best here. Lust for Blood has the power to make your blood run cold just by listening to the opening with its chilling instrumentations.It reminds me so much of his Malice Mizer days. Another great track is Kimi ga Matteiru Kara. It is very emotional but strong at the same time. I'll leave the rest for yu to critique. Buy this album. You WILL NOT be disappointed.

Wow Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Crecsent is probably my favorite Gackt album. There are so many wonderful songs! I love the sound of the acoustic guitar and Gackt brings a lot of that into this CD (plus some piano). All the tracks are excellent. I don't have a favorite. If you're a die hard fan of Gackt, you NEED this album. Or if you never gave Gackt a try, give this album a try. You won't regret buying it.

Crescent Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This is a great cd. I fell in love with "Dybbuk" & "Lust for Blood". Some of his songs are insane and some are sweetly mellow, such as "Last Song". If anyone has seen "Moon Child", the song that is sung by Hyde and Gackt is also in this album. This is a must get!
