Hyde Autobiography

HYDE (of L’Arc~en~Ciel/VAMPS) has announced that he’ll be releasing his autobiography on January 29th! The news has caused a surge of anticipation in the J-rock industry, since HYDE rarely discloses his personal information. In fact, HYDE guards his private life so closely that many of his long-time fans (including those from L’Arc~en~Ciel’s formation in 1991) don’t know his full name.

The autobiography was proposed by HYDE himself, who wanted to create a book that would unravel the mystery surrounding his identity. The rockstar has titled his book as “THE HYDE“, which will consist of 26 chapters (192 pages total). The book will detail HYDE’s life faithfully from his point of view, revealing points about his childhood, the formation of L’Arc~en~Ciel, and of course, his full name. “THE HYDE” will also disclose HYDE’s philosophy on women as well as life and death.
