KAMIJO // Behind the Mask (1/3): Symphony of The Vampire

Bonjour!
As you probably know by now, KAMIJO is preparing to tour Europe this June with his "The Anthem" tour, and for that reason we're doing a little promotion of our own. With our three-part "Behind the Mask" series we aim to give you a different view of KAMIJO's solo works by diving into his story of Louis XVII.
Since this story spans various releases, we've divided it into three parts. In this first part we'll cover the "Symphony of The Vampire" EP, which was released in 2014.
