LUNA SEA – 「LOVELESS」MV

Opening the acclaimed masterpiece “MOTHER,” released in October 1994, this track heralds the beginning of a grand narrative.

Its crystalline guitar sound instantly draws the listener into its world.

While the song grapples with the piercing theme of the absence of love, it seems to coexist with a resonance akin to a prayer seeking salvation.

Though not released as a single, it has opened numerous significant live shows and can be said to embody the spirit of the band.

It’s a piece I hope you’ll listen to on a night when you want to quietly reflect on your heart.

The End of the DreamLUNA SEA23rank/position

LUNA SEA – The End of the Dream （Short Ver.）

A song released by LUNA SEA in 2012 as their 16th single.

Drawing fully on their long-cultivated career, its powerful, internationally styled rock sound, aggressive guitar riffs, and RYUICHI’s commanding vocals convey the message that “the end of one dream is also the beginning of a new one,” giving a supportive push to those pursuing their dreams.

Dejavu

A rock number whose razor-sharp guitars and driving rhythm seize the listener in an instant.

This track appears on LUNA SEA’s major-label debut album “IMAGE,” released in May 1992.

Its thrilling world was born from lyrics by RYUICHI and composition by SUGIZO, and when fused with the band’s signature dark, sensual atmosphere, it amplifies a sense of urgent tension.

Trapped in an endless loop of déjà vu, you feel a growing anxiety as your sense of self slips away.

It tightens your chest like wandering a maze with no exit, seeing the same scenery over and over.

This song, which also lent its title to their one-night-only reunion concert in December 2007, truly stands at the core of the band.

It’s a must-listen when you want to experience their sharp-edged early allure.

JESUSLUNA SEA25rank/position

LUNA SEA “JESUS” January 9, 2022 @ Saitama Super Arena (for JLODlive)

It’s a rock number pierced by a cry brimming with impatience, as if baring its fangs even at God.

Included on the masterpiece EDEN, released in April 1993, the album featuring this track reached No.

5 on the Oricon chart.

RYUICHI’s passionate vocals brilliantly capture a searing worldview that fiercely questions the meaning of existence and seems to plead for salvation.

Over a driving beat, the razor-sharp interplay of twin guitars and a bassline that coils and crawls as if along the ground unite to shake the listener’s emotions to the core.

It’s a work you’ll want to immerse yourself in at full volume on nights when you want to break through the status quo or unleash the impulses sleeping deep within your heart.

MOONLUNA SEA26rank/position

MOON

LUNA SEA has produced numerous hit songs.

This is the ethereal track included on their major-label debut album, IMAGE.

Released in May 1992, it’s truly a hidden gem known to those in the know.

SUGIZO’s delay-drenched arpeggios and the three-beat rhythm paint a scene like moonlight shimmering on the night sea.

The lyrics, depicting a poignant prayer to an unreachable presence—like trying to gather light spilling from your palm—pierce straight to the heart.

The expansive arrangement, enhanced by the sound of violin, deepens the world of the song even further.

It’s a piece you’ll want to listen to alone on a quiet night, immersing yourself fully in its sonic universe.

BLUE TRANSPARENCY: a blue that is as close to transparent as possibleLUNA SEA27rank/position

BLUE TRANSPARENCY: Almost Transparent Blue (ver.2011)

Recorded on their indie-produced first album “LUNA SEA” released in April 1991, this is truly a track that should be called their point of origin.

The urban sense of nihilism—where you can’t trust anyone and even your emotions go numb—is vividly expressed through RYUICHI’s vocals, where cold precision and searing passion intersect.

The razor-sharp guitar riff crafted by INORAN and the driving, hard-edged ensemble are brimming with the brilliance of raw, early impulses, distinct from the grandeur of their major-label era.

It’s a hidden gem overshadowed by their signature songs—one I’d like you to listen to on nights when you’re overcome by an inescapable loneliness.

G.LUNA SEA28rank/position

LUNA SEA – 「G.」MV

A high-velocity rock number where aggressive guitar riffs intertwine with a powerhouse rhythm section.

Originally featured on the classic 1990s album “STYLE,” the track was reimagined on the self-cover album “STYLE,” released in November 2023, leveraging modern production and the band’s seasoned musicianship.

Having been selected as the theme song for the 24-hour endurance race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, this piece delivers a finish brimming with race-like thrills and exhilaration.

A music video released in October 2023 has also reignited attention with its energetic performance.

It’s a track I can confidently recommend as driving music or for those moments when you need to fire yourself up for a decisive challenge.
