Blue Blood is the second album by the Japanese band X Japan and was released on April 21, 1989 on CBS Sony. It contains re-recordings of tracks from the band's debut album Vanishing Vision, "Kurenai" and "Unfinished...", both with alternate / extended lyrics and leans more towards symphonic rock than its predecessor ("Rose of Pain" includes portions from J.S. Bach's "Fugue in E Minor"). Several songs from the record remained mainstays in X Japan's live sets.
