“SEX BLOOD ROCK N’ ROLL” will be VAMPS’ overseas debut album. HYDE commented, “This album isn’t just a compilation of our previous releases. We’ve newly recorded some of the instrumental parts, re-recorded the vocals for each track with entirely English lyrics, and we’ve also redone the mixing. It’ll be our first overseas album which shows us at our absolute best, as well as serving as our “best of” album in Japan”. The album will be released not only in the countries that they will be playing as part of their European tour, but also in other areas which are soon to be announced as their next destination. Their European tour will see them play in Spain, France, Germany and the U.K., held in partnership with LIVE NATION, known for producing worldwide tours for stars such as Lady Gaga, Madonna and U2.
The album will be released on Sept 23rd in the U.K, Sept 24th in The U.S.A, and Sept 25th in Japan (releases will follow in other countries). The track list consists of 13 tracks – “DEVIL SIDE”, “REDRUM”, “REVOLUTION II”, “THE PAST”, “VAMPIRE DEPRESSION”, “SWEET DREAMS”, “Life On Mars?”, “HUNTING II”, “LOVE ADDICT”, “ANGEL TRIP”, “MEMORIES”, “MY FIRST LAST” and “SEX BLOOD ROCK N’ ROLL”.
VAMPS are currently touring with their recent single “AHEAD” and “REPLAY” and have now completed their Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka dates of “VAMPS LIVE 2013”.
