I have only listened to one Dir En Grey song that my friend showed me a long while back.

Obscure.

The video was pretty horribly gross..but somehow really catchy. I felt kinda like a sick person for watching it though.

I like them, especially how they make so many different sounding songs... not everything is so heavy. Saku and Obscure are pretty awesome.
Isn't the singer from Dir En Grey the one from Malice Mizer too? I might be completely wrong about that, but I think I saw that on Last.fm or something.

Nope! Malice Mizer had 3 different vocalists, Tetsu, Gackt, and Klaha. Kyo was never in Malice Mizer.

And to stay on topic... Dir en grey was one of the first jrock bands that I listened to and they really got me into jrock and visual kei. I don't listen to them as much as I used to, but I still love them and I would love to see them live!

My favorite song is probably Embryo, but I also really like The Final, Ain't Afraid to Die, Yokan...gah...it's so hard to pick just one!

I haven't watched any of their pvs in a while, so I'm not sure which one's my favorite and I don't have time to check since I have to leave for in work in like 4 minutes. ^^;

I don't really have a favorite member. I like them all!

Sadsadsad dead Dir en grey thread. :'(

I'm gonna bring this to the top since they've finally officially announced their Fall American/Canadian tour, and this is awesome news for many fans here on mene. 8)

Dates here.

I'm gonna be going to Milwaukee and Sauget, bahahaha. <3

Has anyone seen them live before?

I've seen them twice, once on Family Values and then their Inward Scream tour in 07. 8DDD

I've seen them before! Once, when they came to Atlanta on the Inward Scream tour. It was amazing! I'll be going to Milwaukee and Sauget, too. *winks*

Hay bb. <3 I'm looking forward to see what Kyo has up his sleeve (or lack their of lolol) this time around. :d

Hay! I am too. I love that I'm going with my friends too. *giggles*

Can't believe this thread is only four pages...

Yep going to the same two shows... can't wait!~~~

Inorite. D: Other sites have gone through massive threads on them. X'D Pfft.

It's actually pretty sad. :/ Well, at least they do have the one...

I guess. I wish people would perk up and come post. Unless we're srsly the only real fans that care on here or something. XD'

I kinda wish I could remake it better and stuff. :'(

:'( Well, if it wasn't against the rules, I'd tell you to go for it, but... :/

I love this band! <3
I have several of their cd's.
I was so bummed last year when they came to Detroit for their concert.
I missed it. TT_TT
Their music is the shizz! I listen to it all day at work. <3

Hey Ruki. ~.*
O_O You so just made my day posting those concert dates.
Pontiac here I come! <3 Do you know when tickets go on sale.
BAH! I'll just look it up.

Tickets go on sale Friday August 15th, 2008 :3. Good luck!

Thank you! <3
I am NOT missing them this year!

I just got into Dir En Grey yesterday, actually. And I've heard a few of their songs. My favourite of them so far is "Cage". n wn

@Kieran - That is a great song. <3
I started with the Final and got hooked on the rest.

@ _Ruki_ - I'm glad! XD I stalk their lj communities so fortunately I'm usually pretty up to date on new info and tours. <3

@ Keiran - How'd you discover them out of curiosity? My first song was Filth (though I didn't like it) and then a long while later I heard Obscure, and fell in love. <3 That was about..... 5 years ago now. wow. lol.

@Ruki - I do that with Gazette. I wish they would come here, or have agiant PSC tour.
I bought my Dir en Grey tickets today. Woot! I am so geeked!
-does the happy dance-

We've got ours now too. :'D YAY. -joins in dancing-

And I agree completely. I want to see Gaze so friggin bad. DD: Or alice nine. lol.

Woot! -does the jig-
That concert would rule for all eternity! Yes, I love Alice Nine too. I'm listening to "13" right now. <3 If Gaze came anywhere in North America I would bike and or walk there if I had to.
I also want to see D'espairs Ray live. <3 I heard Hizumi is amazing live. I about died when Fuse played Squall. I think I jumped up and down screaming "It's about friggin time Jrock is on tv" for an hour.

LOL I agree. I'd make sure I can go see them if they came. >D

I'm not so much of a desray fan, though they were here with Taste of Chaos right? lol.

They were here last year. Probably somewhere in California. -insert uber twisted smile here- Everyone goes to California for concerts. TT_TT The rest of the states likes them too.

Actually Taste of Chaos came through the whole US. XD' Because they played in Chicago and I know in like Atlanta definitely. The Japanese bands were MUCC and Desray, and uhh some other band I forget. 8(

I know there were a few tours that did that. I am in Detroit. xD I want them to come here, instead of having to leave the state or country. I know a lot of bands hit Toronto. That's not too far away. That concert would have been awesome! Where do you find out the tours from? I usually hit up Batsu and check the concert updates.
