Crescent (Gackt album)

Crescent is the fourth full-length studio album released by Japanese solo artist Gackt on December 3, 2003.

Crescent also features a duet with L'Arc-en-Ciel vocalist Hyde for "Orenji no Taiyou" with whom Gackt co-starred in the 2003 movie Moon Child.

[2] Already established as a "charismatic vocalist representing the 21st century rock scene",[3] Gackt continued to expand his expression, conceptualization and romanticism.

[1] Other songs are dramatic hard rock tunes "Dybbuk",[7] "Mind Forest" (with Japanese traditional music influence), "Kimi Ga Matteiru Kara", "Lust for Blood", "White Eyes", while "Orenji no Taiyou" and "Birdcage" initially with acoustic guitar and strings become more intensely rock by the end.

The first single "Kimi ga Oikaketa Yume" reached number two on the fifth counting week of March, with sales of 59,265 copies.
