Tourbillon (トゥールビヨン Tūrubiyon, French for "whirlwind") is a Japanese musical project formed in 2005 by Luna Sea members Ryuichi Kawamura (vocals) and Inoran (guitar), and D-Loop member Hiroaki "H. Hayama" Hayama (keyboards).[1]
They reached the number three position on the Oricon Singles Weekly Ranking Chart with "Break the Chain", the opening theme of the TV tokusatsu series Kamen Rider Kiva. The group ended activities in 2008 shortly after its release.
Tourbillon reunited for a 10th anniversary concert at the Tokyo International Forum on November 27, 2015 and three performances at different Zepp venues throughout December. The compilation album The Decade - 10th Anniversary Best was released on November 25, 2015 and includes three new songs.[2] One of these new songs, "Colorless Images", will be released as a single on February 24, 2016 and used as the theme song of Kamen Rider: Battride War Genesis.
