This song is great, yes. Although, my comment is irrelevant to the video. Anyone notice in Japanese annunciations of words, they always end in a vowel? Anyone think that's odd? :PP I'm just saying.. I noticed this the other day. XD
@DaanKembangMawar Really? I've never noticed them. I only ever notice the words with a vowel at the end. I blame subconscious selective reading... XD Show me a video with words with n? :DD
@RainPaperPain Every syllable ends in a vowel usually, with the exception of the 'n' sound such as the word Yokan which is the title for another Dir en Grey song, and the exception of some sounds being dropped from the word to shorten them, such as the conjugation 'desu' that is usually pronounced 'dess'.
December they will be in Denver with The Birthday Massacre at The Bluebird Theater....idk about any other states though really....I'm so excited to see them I might pee my pants hahaha
@chessismygame9 Look up Umbrella, Mr. Newsman, Child Prey, and Machiavellism. Some of their best, as far as I'm concerned. Obscure is pretty good too.

@TheRitchardgaleHater no some ppl say his name is Tooru, one of many generic common names in japan, i don't buy it thats like claiming some famous rockstar from america has the last name johnson...i think 1 day some die hard just put that up to get attention idk mebe it is who knows...
man I just love these japanese bands dir en grey loudness sex machineguns x japan show yah sigh and meny more the sad thing about those bands, when they come to U.S they play in sorry small clubs I would like to go to JAPAN and see this bands
I wish all the scene kids and idiot fad kids could have the understanding of Dir En Grey saw them at k tour like 2 years ago they ripped apart bmth his vocals and his pain is amazing fair play Kyo your amazing. x
actually from various documentaries kyo is very religious. no one knows his real name and they are not emo or gothic well they might be but i doubt it. kyo goes thru like seven or eight different stages each album he seems to b into something else. like now with lotus and obscure he shaved his head and their first album as diru they were looking like visual kei. i personlly like them in this video with hair. theyr band name means "yourself in the grey "
@TheRitchardgaleHater no, why do you think he's only refered to as Kyo and never a last name. Nobody in DEG uses there real name. Kyo and one other member ( I cant remember who) spell there name with the kanji for it upsidedown actually creating more mystery. Kyo, Die, Kaouru, Toshiya, and Shinya are all stage names, they've never revealed there real names though.
@SlowmoLife Wow! I never actually thought of that...That's...strange. Now I'm strangely not goin to be able to think of them in the same way again. Just because of that lol
@Kaptenhuahua I could be wrong on some of the members but i do know for a fact that Kyo's real name is not Kyo and that he spells it with the kanji upside down, and one other member does the same but i cant remember who exactly it is
My girlfriend is really in to Dir en grey, but I just can't get into them that much. There's something very fundamental to their sound that I just can't get over.
who is the idiot that called this emo ? ok its a dark theme but people need to really pay attentipn to the lyrics , this song aint sayin kill ya'self so whoever is complainin needs to hop off like the children they are , jus sayin .
OK seriously KingCrimson776. Dir en grey deal with stuff like abortion, Rape, suicide and losing people.! Kyo (The lead singer... that's the guy with the mic who doesn't rap, not that you'ld get that) has lived a proverbial Hell and so therefore because he's not always screaming and Slashing himself up left right and centre and isn't wasted off his face at every concert he'sgay? I'm sorry mate, but you really need to think about your conceptions of homosexuality.
"so even if I engraved the meaning that I lived in my hand"
"suicide is the proof of life"
"even the loved ones scatter like petals from a flower in my hand"
I normally don't care about lyrics, only music. But Dir en grey is the one exception for a reason. Kyo's lyrics are always so insightful. This song, for example, captures depression, suicidal tendencies, and self-hate better than anything else I've heard.
@phsycofairy I love the instrumental parts of the Bleach soundtrack, but this is the kind of band that does the intro/credits music for them, which nearly always sucks.
As I already told you, Dir en grey DOES NOT make soundtracks. Listen to some of their newest songs, and then come here and tell me they do anime music. Tracks like Obscure [Lotus version] or Hageshisa to kono mune no naka de karamitsuita shakunetsu no yami (ahahaha I'm not making up a title, it's this long) are everything but OST XDD
Please, inform yourself about a band before making this kind of judgement
@SeleneMalfoy I'm telling you, there is stuff like this all the time in anime credits. Sometimes it's the really frilly gay stuff, sometimes it's the heavier but still gay stuff like these guys.
@KingCrimson776 .....AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. Yessss. You have no idea, you don't know the lyrics (not of this song in particular, in general), you don't know anything bandrelated... oh man, think whatever you want, if you can't take apart a band that does anime from a band that does not, well... peace and love XD
actually, yes :3 at least when we are talking about Dir en grey. I'm not saying they are the best band in the world, nor their music is flawless, but they're not to be underestimated IMHO ... and anyway WOW, you even know about their sexuality, cheers for you.
@KingCrimson776 Quote "I've never recorded OSTs for animes because I have never been approached to do one and would never record one as I don't believe my songs are applicable for the material". Organise your facts before you debate a topic my friend
@KingCrimson776 Actually he was asked in comparison to those bands who HAVE recorded anime tracks such as screw and Dir en grey have been referred to as being in the same genre as screw, Gazette, Girugamesh. But since you're bored and obviously could never understand such expressive material as it's not about boozing and slutting... You wouldn't understand it and talking to you is a waste of everyone's time.
@Chaoticdespayre Yeah, you're so expressive and deep for listening to Japanese goths singing about "edgy" topics. Anyone who doesn't like this band must be into songs about "boozing and slutting" (is that even a word?) Maybe I should stop listening to King Crimson and Beethoven because they sing about "making it rain" too much.
@KingCrimson776 Lmao. Not everyone listens to them because they're edgy, some people actually like them for dealing with topics that they go through as humans, people. Your choice of music is your own. No-one is actually saying that your opinion is wrong. It's the over-agressive tone that your using to voice your opinion that no-one agrees with. (And fyi, yes slutting is a word)
@KingCrimson776 However we're not here to argue on my somewhat dubious use of the english language. Mainly because We're not here to argue unnecessarily. At least, I'm not.
@KingCrimson776 There's nothing wrong with Kring Crimson, Beethoven or this band. If anything, I would think a King Crimson fan could appreciate the musical diversity Dir En Grey represents. While some songs might have too much of a pop touch for me, their music is so diverse, I can find something I like.
@KingCrimson776 Their music is varied enough so there's no "absolute best". I really dig their songs like Conceived Sorrow, Inconvenient Ideal wich are powerful, slow and sad, but I started listening to them with Obscure, wich is pretty gore, almost violent but so efficient. Give em a try!
Yeah, I enjoy Dir en grey. No, I don't want to be Japanese, I just appreciate music that's from a different culture. Are they Emo? I don't really give a shit. Most music is formulaic and can easily be categorized with labels. People who are unimaginative and dumb like to use labels. I just think of them as Dir en grey.
Besides, the generic term known as Emo nowadays wasn't even around when this band formed in 1997, fuckheads.
@evillurkswithinusall NOOB. Dir En Grey isn't bad, thats not my point. But if you don't know when emo music started, don't spread stupidity. Sunny Day Real Estate was formed in 1992 and they are considered one of the first emo bands. Also I'm not the huge fan of them, but its highly possible, that you will end up crying, when you listen their whole album at once :D
@mangaista I highly doubt that Dir en grey were listening to "Sunny Day Real Estate" or "Rites of Spring" for that matter in 1997. Kuroyume? Yes, certainly. However, the band has come out themselves saying that they despise labels and don't appreciate having their music labeled. I don't think that you can label their music easily because it's way too diverse in style.
@evillurkswithinusall "Besides, the generic term known as Emo nowadays wasn't even around when this band formed in 1997, fuckheads." thats the only part of your post, that I refer to.
@GerardXDarkXKaulitz not so La Sadies was only around for a year or so before they became Dir en grey they would not have been old enough in the 80's lol
@cat0nines4 oh shit sorry yes that is true XD lol sorry got a bit mixed up for how long la sadies was out but, im deffinitly positive on dir en grey not fromed til 97 ^-^
@GrayxMoth actually technically speaking Dir En Grey formed in the 80's before they were La:Sadie's which had all the members of DEG in it, but Kyo also only did backup vocals in La:Sadie's

@KingCrimson776 Quote "I've never recorded OSTs for animes because I have never been approached to do one and would never record one as I don't believe my songs are applicable for the material". Organise your facts before you debate a topic my friend

@Chaoticdespayre The fact that someone asked him that question in the first place means his band sounds like anime music.
KingCrimson776 11 months ago
@KingCrimson776 Actually he was asked in comparison to those bands who HAVE recorded anime tracks such as screw and Dir en grey have been referred to as being in the same genre as screw, Gazette, Girugamesh. But since you're bored and obviously could never understand such expressive material as it's not about boozing and slutting... You wouldn't understand it and talking to you is a waste of everyone's time.
Chaoticdespayre 11 months ago
@Chaoticdespayre Yeah, you're so expressive and deep for listening to Japanese goths singing about "edgy" topics. Anyone who doesn't like this band must be into songs about "boozing and slutting" (is that even a word?) Maybe I should stop listening to King Crimson and Beethoven because they sing about "making it rain" too much.
KingCrimson776 11 months ago
@KingCrimson776 Lmao. Not everyone listens to them because they're edgy, some people actually like them for dealing with topics that they go through as humans, people. Your choice of music is your own. No-one is actually saying that your opinion is wrong. It's the over-agressive tone that your using to voice your opinion that no-one agrees with. (And fyi, yes slutting is a word)

@Chaoticdespayre Oh jeez, I just read the subtitles... "the flowers of vanity" <-- c'mon, so anime.
Well, slutting does come up on urban dictionary.

@KingCrimson776 Ok well whoring / moneyless prostitution.
Chaoticdespayre 11 months ago
@Chaoticdespayre "moneyless prostitution" = kind of an contradiction dontcha think
KingCrimson776 11 months ago
@KingCrimson776 not really. Prostitution= sleeping with a number of different men for money - for money = sleeping with a number of different men.
Moneyless prostitution.

@KingCrimson776 However we're not here to argue on my somewhat dubious use of the english language. Mainly because We're not here to argue unnecessarily. At least, I'm not.

@KingCrimson776 There's nothing wrong with Kring Crimson, Beethoven or this band. If anything, I would think a King Crimson fan could appreciate the musical diversity Dir En Grey represents. While some songs might have too much of a pop touch for me, their music is so diverse, I can find something I like.

@Spwee1494Halo What is the absolute greatest song of these guys, I'll look it up.
KingCrimson776 11 months ago
@KingCrimson776 Their music is varied enough so there's no "absolute best". I really dig their songs like Conceived Sorrow, Inconvenient Ideal wich are powerful, slow and sad, but I started listening to them with Obscure, wich is pretty gore, almost violent but so efficient. Give em a try!

@KingCrimson776 oh and you might not want to watch the Obscure clip, unless you feel like watching zombie-like whores drooling on each others!

Faggot? Emo? Bitch?
There's a lot of children in here, period.
Yeah, I enjoy Dir en grey. No, I don't want to be Japanese, I just appreciate music that's from a different culture. Are they Emo? I don't really give a shit. Most music is formulaic and can easily be categorized with labels. People who are unimaginative and dumb like to use labels. I just think of them as Dir en grey.
Besides, the generic term known as Emo nowadays wasn't even around when this band formed in 1997, fuckheads.

@evillurkswithinusall Fucking agree all the way, dude.

@evillurkswithinusall NOOB. Dir En Grey isn't bad, thats not my point. But if you don't know when emo music started, don't spread stupidity. Sunny Day Real Estate was formed in 1992 and they are considered one of the first emo bands. Also I'm not the huge fan of them, but its highly possible, that you will end up crying, when you listen their whole album at once :D

@mangaista I highly doubt that Dir en grey were listening to "Sunny Day Real Estate" or "Rites of Spring" for that matter in 1997. Kuroyume? Yes, certainly. However, the band has come out themselves saying that they despise labels and don't appreciate having their music labeled. I don't think that you can label their music easily because it's way too diverse in style.

@GrayxMoth actually technically speaking Dir En Grey formed in the 80's before they were La:Sadie's which had all the members of DEG in it, but Kyo also only did backup vocals in La:Sadie's
