Merveilles is the third studio album by Malice Mizer, released on March 18, 1998. It is the band's only album on a major record label.

Its title was coined by Gackt as a keyword to the theme. Its overall concept is "a story that goes back and forth between the present, the past and the future across time". However, the lyrics are not set in the real world as it is, but in the fairy-tale world, the medieval world and the future world. This album marked the pinnacle of the band's success, being their best-selling album, charting high on the Oricon charts, and also earned them several national TV appearances. Japanese pop culture website Real Sound credited Malice Mizer as the first visual kei band to incorporate European aesthetics into heavy metal with the twin guitars in "Bel Air ~Kuuhaku no Toki no Naka De~".

"Beast of Blood" is the last single released by Malice Mizer on June 21, 2001. Since i can't find a decent description of this single online, i'll try to write one on my own. 
This song is probably the most beautiful thing i have ever listened to, it was one of the first songs i listened of Malice Mizer, and i was hooked immediatly. In a nutshell, the theme of this song is about a vampire (as the title suggests, a beast of blood) who is searching for a pray and drinking its blood. In this piece Malice MIzer mixed together organs, harpsichords, and electric guitars.
