bloods-final-tour-and-last-album

As announced tonight on Tainted Reality, BLOOD is embarking on their final tour in the U.S.

Apparently, there is no bad blood between the members, as it was a mutual decision to go their separate ways. No specific details on why they decided this was released, however.

And it seems Fu-ki and Kaede are retiring from music. (Credit: Tsukasa)

BLOOD is also releasing their last album on Jan. 28th.

Tainted Reality is also bringing over a few other artists for the tour: GPKism, Echostream and DJ SiSeN.

BLOOD as well as the other artists in the tour will be signing autographs and taking photos with fans at each concert.

BLOOD Final Tour: La Fin De La Journee

New member for BLOOD

Posted on March 17, 2008 at 2:01 pm (No Comments)

new-member-for-blood

bloodryou.pngBLOOD has recently updated their OHP and announced a new official member, Ryo!

And thanks to my good friend Ailea for letting me know so I could post it here! ^^

It’s funny, because on the English version of their OHP they have him listed as Bass, however, I think they just copy and pasted the profile from Kaede’s and forgot to change it, as on the Japanese version, they have him labeled as the Manipulator, which would be his actual role in the band. They’ve also posted links to his journals (Japanese and English) but he has yet to post anything in them. Hopefully we’ll see an official ‘hello’ from him soon!

Ryo is not ‘new’ to BLOOD per say as he had been playing keyboard for them earlier this year, however, he has now become an official member of the band.

RYONAI’s New Year Message

Posted on December 31, 2007 at 5:27 pm (2 Comments)

ryonais-new-year-message

RYONAI (ex Blam Honey) has sent a New Years message to fans from his myspace. He even made a graphic for fans, which was really sweet. His English is pretty good so you can email him or add him. He openly talks about designing, graphics and music. Along with Kiwamu (BLOOD), RYONAI has been doing lives with a new comer to the vk scene, GPKISM (which I think stands for Gothic Prince Ken-ISM ?). Here is RYONAI’s message for the New Year and his fans:

A Happy New Year! !
I pray for your prosperity of splendid
talent and health and bed of roses!

Please greet the good New Year!

RYONAI
