Basilisk is the second album by Japanese rock band D'erlanger, released on March 7, 1990.[1] It reached number 5 on the Oricon charts.[2]
History
The album was remastered, along with La Vie En Rose, and released on April 21, 1995.[3] It, along with the rest of the band's albums, was remastered and released again on April 18, 2007. The arrangement for all tracks is credited to D'erlanger, except "So...", which is credited to D'erlanger and Jimmy of 44Magnum, and "Bara Iro no Jinsei", which is credited to D'erlanger and Dahlia.
"Bara Iro no Jinsei" is a re-worked version of the title track from La Vie En Rose, and "I Can't Live Without You" was originally on their first album as well. The single version of "Darlin'" is slightly different than the album's. The single "Lullaby -1990-" includes part of "Moon and the Memories", titled "Moon and the Memories 2", as a b-side. Incomplete versions of "Darlin'" and "Crime and Punishment" appear on D'erlanger's 2007 greatest hits album Pandora.[4] Their 2010 self-cover album A Fabulous Thing in Rose includes new re-recordings of "Incarnation of Eroticism", "Sad Song", "So...", "Moon and the Memories", and "Darlin'"[5]
