LUNA SEA's sound is firmly based in 80s hard rock with a versatile progressive approach to songwriting. With mixed elements of punk, metal, and some pop, they form hard, slow, or fast tunes, as well as ballads, all with a mysterious atmosphere. Their softer side, with violin playing, also proves equally as strong.
LUNA SEA, due to early use of makeup and costumes, and their widespread popularity, is considered one of the biggest influential bands in the visual kei movement. Throughout the mid 90s, they used significantly less makeup, and after a one-year break in 1998, they came back with a more progressive rock style and toned down their onstage attire. When they went on an indefinite hiatus in 2000, they left a big influence on the Japanese rock scene.
LUNA SEA achieved its breakthrough success with a sold-out tour in 1991, which helped them to get a contract with MCA, and with the release of their second album IMAGE which recached #9 on the charts. After moving to Universal Music Group in 1998 the band released their best-selling album, SHINE, with an estimated 902,310 copies sold in one year in Japan alone, although this is less than their compilation album SINGLES which managed to sell over one million in Japan. Throughout their career, LUNA SEA released seven studio albums, one live album, seven VHS/DVD releases, and fourteen singles, and sold over eight million records in Japan alone.
On August 25, 2010, the day of a full moon, it was announced that they would hold an urgent press conference on August 31 in Hong Kong, where they previously announced the end of their activities in 2000. During the press conference, the band confirmed a reunion and announced their first tour in ten years, new songs, and added that there will be even more news with time. The world tour, named LUNA SEA 20th ANNIVERSARY WORLD TOUR REBOOT -to the New Moon- began on November 27 in Germany, and continued with performances in the United States, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and ended on December 31 in Japan, the last of a two-day performance in Kobe.
In response to the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami that occured March 11, LUNA SEA announced that they would release their first new song in 10 years. "Promise" was released on April 9 exclusively on Amazon websites as a digital download, with all proceeds donated to the Japanese Red Cross to aid the victims. Their December 4, 2010 concert in Los Angeles was filmed in 3D, and it was released as a live album and video. Both titled LUNA SEA 3D IN LOS ANGELES, the album was released on June 1, while the video was shown in theaters nationwide in Japan on June 4. The band streamed a live press conference, at the movie's premier at Toho Cinemas Roppongi Hills, through Ustream.tv on May 29. There, they announced a charity concert titled LUNA SEA For JAPAN A Promise to The Brave at the 30,000 seat Saitama Super Arena on October 22. The concert will be broadcast life on WOWOW, and all proceeds from the event will go to the Japanese Red Cross for the victims of the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. Tickets for the show went on sale on August 14 and sold out in five minutes.

ネオンの洪水 夢遊病の群れ
腐った野望の吹き溜まりの中
見上げた夜空を切り刻んでいたビル
夢のない この世界
輝く星さえ見えない都会で
夜空に終りを探し求めて
この夜にかざした細い指先
揺れて揺れて今心が
何も信じられないまま
咲いていたのは my rosy heart
揺れて揺れてこの世界で
愛することも出来ぬまま
哀しい程 鮮やかな 花弁の様に
ROSIER 愛したキミには
ROSIER 近づけない
ROSIER 抱き締められない
ROSIER 愛しすぎて
I've pricked my heart.
「By the time I knew.
I was born Reason or quest,

What do I do,What should I take
Words “God Only Knows”
won't work for me
Nothing starts Nothing
ends in this city
Exists only sever lonesome
and cruel reality
But still search for light
I am the trigger,
I choose my final way
Whether I bloom or fall,
is up to me
I am the trigger」

The lyrics of Luna Sea’s song ROSIER describe a city that has forgotten how to shine, with streets filled with a flood of neon lights and a group of people wandering aimlessly in their dreams. The city has become a gathering place for spoiled and corrupt desires, with the night sky being cut to pieces by towering buildings. The world has lost its dreams, and even the shining stars cannot be seen in this metropolis. The singer searches for the end of the night sky, reaching out with their fingers to find the answer they seek. This is a world in which they cannot believe anything, but within it, their heart is shaking and swaying.
The singer’s heart, described as a “rosy heart,” trembling in the face of the cruel reality of this world. They cannot love fully in this world, and it must be a heartbreaking experience to watch their dreams wither away like the petals of a flower. There is a sense of hopelessness, a realization that love cannot exist amidst this ruined reality, and the singer's love for someone named “you” is also unattainable. Despite this, they still search for the light and choose their final way, to bloom or fall, according to their own choice. The singer realizes that they are the trigger of their own destiny and must find their own way to survive in this reality.

私は外国人 (あまり日本語できませんから、すみません)ですが、高校頃からずっとヴィジュアル系に興味をもって、LUNA SEAの音楽を聞いている。何回聞いても、感動している。
@JitenshaSan
俺も外国人なので分かる。vkが見つけたとき感情に流されてしまった。もっと調べてみて、色んな音楽家が見つけた。でも最近vkeiが発見したから、まだ初心者だね
@PP-mt2jf
昔のV系最高過ぎて一曲聞き出すとその時代のバンド漁ってしまうし、
芋づる式に追いかけて止まらなくなるw
90年代最高過ぎる。
@unpippisan
90年代V系はほんと沼ですよね…頷きすぎて首がもげます…
