Alright, this is a fun idea for a thread… here’s my ideal setlist from one of my UCP faves that actually had enough output to make this a challenge to cut down to 10 for a set:
Nega
Purgatory
MMFP
Soul Cry
鬱 (Utsu)
Abase
躊躇うことなく「 」を傷付けた指先は、途惑うことなく穢れた「 」を飾る
虚しき「生」の寓意≒「死」の真意
Muddy Cult
Unblessed Love (Perestroika cover**)** …. ok that’s half cheating but Perestroika was just an alter-ego band of sorts I’m tossing it in there it’s my dream setlist after all.
Hindsight (Encore)
Tried to get at least a little taste of every era, and balance the heavy shit with the ballad-y tracks.
I am doing one for a soloist, KAMIJO, Post-Versailles Only. I am not sure if it is ok
Prelude - Dead Set World
Theme of Sang
Nosferatu
闇夜のライオン (Symbol of the Dragon ver)
Vampire Rock Star (Behind the Mask ver)
VIOLET DAWN
Behind the Mask (OSCAR ver)
Heart
Castrato
SANG I
SANG II
Symphony of the Vampire
The set list basically follows the 1st half of his Dream Live - Symphony of the Vampire but modified to fit in the feel of the set list of the actual live I was able to see him in last year during his MASTERPIECE tour.
I am probably cheating by including a prelude but Theme of Sang and Nosferatu must be played right after Dead Set World. This is a non-negotiable order of tracks. I am omitting the interlude that normally plays before Castrato and SANG just to have cleaner look at the 10 songs but I expect them to be played.
I specifically chose songs that are the orchestra version of themselves. They are just smoother and considering the main set list already were played with an orchestra, it feels right.
The encore will most likely be Louis〜艶血のラヴィアンローズ〜 and one of his ballad-y songs.
Although it was played in the Dream Live, I am omitting his epic Symphony of the Vampire since I am limiting this to 10 tracks.
The Dream Live was already perfect during it’s time IMO (I wish I saw it live). To make it better, I would just add some more of his recent works to the mix.
period (this always felt like their goodbye song and i love it)
I tried to incorporate a little bit of their entire disco (we dont talk about Go) in an order that made sense to me. fuck i miss this band so much. gonna go listen to this playlist now
the fact that I had a Girugamesh period ( before they became traitors !! ) doing one of them too, I miss listening to them
1/ Opening song : Aimai Na Mikaku ( used to listen to it a lot when i was a teen and overall the song is just so very super pretty ! )
2/ Owari to Mirai ( good times good giru era )
3/Asking Why ( badass )
4/ ALIVE !!! ( little bit of fast agressive song before getting into ballads )
5/Ishtar
6/Kowarete Iku Sekai
7/ DIRTY MONEY ( i wanna be a sincere man say )
8/ VOLCANO ( yes i want to destroy Satoshi’s throat )
9/ Arrow
10/ BREAK DOWN ( a bit weird to finish with it, but it’s the perfect mix between badass, cute, cool, and fun so.. )
