Phantasmagoria, a popular visual kei band led by producer and bassist KISAKI, have announced two new releases for March 10th, as well as the participation in two upcoming events.

Diamond Dust, one of the releases, will be a single including the coupling song of what was supposed to be Phantasmagoria's major debut single - which ended up being their last single, Kami uta, released in July 2007. It will come with the title track, its instrumental counterpart and a DVD with approximately 30 minutes of their performance at UNDER CODE's countdown event, held at Tokyo Kinema Club.

The other CD is a mini-album titled Seeds of Brain. Four songs have been picked for the CD, all of which were planned to be released throughout 2006 and 2007, but were kept unpublished due to contract problems. The tracks are Seeds of Brain, Cry..., Desperate Resolution for my Soul.. and the bonus track My Mental State..., a song previously recorded by KISAKI and vocalist Riku.

Additionally, Phantasmagoria have added two events to their live schedule. The first one is an event organized by website VISUNAVI and magazine FOOL'S MATE, which will take place at Meguro Rockmaykan on February 5th. The other event is a concert held to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the same Rockmaykan livehouse, though it is set to take place at Tokyo JCB Hall. Other bands participating in this event are Versailles, Merry and MUCC.
