VAMPS Announce Hiatus and Fans Go Crazy

​Japanese rock band VAMPS, which is lead by world-renowned vocalist Hyde (Who is also the vocalist the band L’Arc~en~Ciel), recently declared they would be going on a temporary hiatus. Fans all over the globe are worried about the future of the band and the possibility of future activities.

Some fans have speculated that the hiatus is somehow related to L’Arc~en~Ciel rather than VAMPS itself as it has been rumored that L’Arc~en~Ciel will resume activities soon with either a tour or a new music release of some kind. As amazing as this would be there is a small problem with that theory. Some fans have reminded us that Hyde has come out publicly stating that he has had issues with the label and its business practices. Elsewhere, other fans are throwing around the rumor that L’Arc~en~Ciel might announce a break up along with that also rumored tour. Although I personally believe this is highly unlikely it isn’t something we should rule out and either way time will prove if this was all pointless conjecture or not.
 
Let’s hope this hiatus isn’t a permanent one and that both VAMPS and L’Arc~en~Ciel will continue to inspire the world with their music. I’m sure all us fans want all members involved to carry on. We can only hope.
