Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Next, there’s the J-Rock group that helped make Fullmetal Alchemist a legendary anime. L’arc~en~Ciel’s “Ready Steady GO!” is the second opening to the series. L’arc has been around for a long time–since 1994, to be exact. Older hits include “Fourth Avenue Cafe”, “Spirit Dreams Inside” (as heard in the Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within movie), and “Driver’s High” (opening theme to the Great Teacher Onizuka anime). After taking a five year break, they returned with this song.

Today, they continue to rock fans with “New World” (The Conqueror of Shambala) and “Daybreak’s Bell” (Mobile Suit Gundam 00 opening). The last two L’arc albums (SMILE and AWAKE) was released by Tofu Records, but they are now collectors album since Tofu is no more. However, thanks to iTunes Media Store, they can be downloaded with a click of a button. If you’re looking for just this song and don’t want to pay extra for the Japanese CD, look for FUNimation’s release of the Fullmetal Alchemist Soundtrack.

“Are you ready?”

Yeah, I’ve been listening to L’arc for a while. I have their last two albums released in the US before Tofu Records went out of business; SMILE and AWAKE. I only know their good songs from the past several years, but I really like to hear older songs, like Fourth Avenue Cafe from the Rurouni Kenshin movie. I’ll have to check out Drink. I’m going to do a post on the the song L’arc used for the Hagaren movie in the future. ^^
