The song "Marry of the Blood" is about being a vampire. The lyrics to it talk about the pain and pleasures of a vampire. Immortality, blood lust, fangs, darkness and more are covered in this song.
D'espairsRay is an industrial metal band hailing from Japan. But they have gained very notable success in Europe and in North America. They boast a fairly electric sound though seem to gravitate often to a syncopated drum-and-guitar assault.
D'espairsRay's sound is dark, sinister and schizophrenic. The vocalist, HIZUMI, usually goes from sounding like a totally deranged demon creature to letting loose with a smooth, soulful cry on most songs.
With leanings towards the supernatural and macabre, the website is darkly gothic and adorned with skulls - there is even an option to send parcels to the band members.
To those unfamiliar with Jrock, D'espairs Ray is a great introduction to it. To some, "hardcore" bands like Dir En Grey are an acquired taste that only few can appreciate. But D'espairs Ray is easily enoyable by all. HIzumi, the vocal, has a great strong voice. Karyu's guitar solos are amazing. D'espairs Ray's songs have a great balance between singing and screaming. Like Dir En Grey, D'espairs Ray's lyrics are dark, talking about the will to die or about how bad the world is, but these messages are sung differently, and less "muted" compared to Dir En Grey to make it more acceptable to all.
Even though, the lyrics are all in Japanese, listening to the music is enough to appreciate D'espairs Ray.
The amazon link takes you to their CD Coll : Set which features the songs Marry Of The Blood, Bloody Minded Mix.
Also they have a myspace page for free music and band pics
Marry of the Blood lyrics:
I am beautiful creature
Tsukiakari ga terasu yuubi na silhouette
Kannou to kairaku de somatta kono chi bloody eyes
[un]beautiful creature
Shitataru kanjou ga afure... be almost drowned
Haitoku de aru ga yueni nozomu junketsu no chi wo
Eien no seimei ga motarashita kodoku ni
Uchihishigare nagara iki tsuzuketeiku no darou
Neo rebirth... saikai no tokiwomachiwabite
This time government... itoshi ki mono no chi wo sagasu
[un]beautiful creature
"suukou na kokoro to kokoro no dansu" wo
Noukou na chi to chi ga mazari au miwaku no baptism
Kodou wo takashi burase kage wo yami ni hisome
Tarenagashi no yokujou honnou ga kimi wo motomeru
Neo rebirth... saiai no kimi wo kono doku kiba de
This time government... michizure ni kindan no ryouiki e
Neo rebirth... sai aii no kimi wo kono doku kiba de
This time government... michi zuru ni kairaku ni obore
Brand new gate...give you valentine's name and qeeen...
Bloodymarry done... kono shunkan ni shukunai no gi wo...
Translation:
I am beautiful creature
The moonlight shines on my graceful silhouette
My senses and my pleasures stain my blood and these bloody eyes
[un]beautiful creature
My trickling emotions overflow... be almost drowned
As I'm all corrupted, I desire your chaste blood
This immortality brings about only loneliness
And while I'm battered with suffering, I suppose I continue existing
Neo rebirth... I impatiently wait for the time of our reunion
This time government... I search for the blood of my beloved one
[un]beautiful creature
"The dance of the supreme heart with the heart"
The thick blood contaminates the blood, a captivating baptism
I conceal in the darkness my pulsating aroused shadow
Incontinent in my sexual passion, my instincts beg you
Neo rebirth... My poison fang into my most beloved you
This time government... You're my fellow traveler to that forbidden territory
Neo rebirth... My poison fang into my reunited you
This time government... drown in the unknown and the pleasures
Brand new gate... Give you Valentine's name and Queen...
Bloodymarry done... in this instant I toast this affair...
