In one of a recent series of interviews, YOSHIKI was asked about VIOLET UK.
Here's a summary:
- YOSHIKI confirmed a photo he tweeted of him playing drums was for recording VUK
- He thinks the VUK album will be a masterpiece
- Album is almost ready, YOSHIKI to grind extra hard over the next 2-3 months
- Format is undecided,so he's getting fans opinions to help decide
- Definately "wants" to release it
- Doesn't want the release to conflict with X JAPAN
- Understands Fans/Recording company telling him to Hurry the f...k up
- Spent 1 year on 1 song for VUK. Recording engineers tell him he's crazy.

My thoughts:
The backlash he's been getting from not doing X JAPAN doesn't bode well for VUK's release.
Hopefully 2013 is the year,
and the epic wait will be over.
