Dahlia is an album released by X Japan on November 4, 1996. It is the band's 5th studio record and is composed largely of ballads, with only a few tracks (i.e. "Scars", the title track, and to some extent, "Rusty Nail") retaining the band's heavier musical traits seen on previous releases.

This is another photo of a series, where I tried to show a special atmosphere, just like painting with light instead of achieving a sharp representation of a flower - or metaphorically spoken: If this photo were a book then it would be a novel and not a botanical science book.
