Luna Sea (Luna Sea album)

[3] The band changed their name from Lunacy to Luna Sea and took part in the label's sold out Nuclear Fusion Tour in March with Gilles de Rais and Sighs of Love Potion.

Luna Sea is the band's only release on an indie label as they signed to MCA Victor for their second album, 1992's Image.

For the opening track "Fate", Sugizo said he was influenced by punk and hardcore, but also jazz and bossa nova-like chords, while the rhythm was inspired by King Crimson songs.

"Kagirinaku Tōmei ni Chikai Burū" (限りなく 透明に 近い ブルー) is translated as "Almost Transparent Blue," which comes from the Ryū Murakami novel of the same name.

This edition came with a DVD which contained live promotional videos for the songs "Moon" and "Precious...", that were recorded at Nippon Seinenkan on September 19, 1991.

It was released in three editions; a regular, a limited with a DVD of a music video for "Shade" that uses footage from their Lunacy Kurofuku Gentei Gig ~the Holy Night~ free concert on December 25, 2010, and a premium which includes a reproduction cassette of their 1989 demo "Shade" and a reproduction shirt from their 1991 Under the New Moon Episode I-III tours.
