ha ha ha my comment is for you avampiresdance....his name is KYO and he is from DIR EN GREY! he is incredibly talented and has one of the most beautiful voices you will ever hear!.........so STFU!
@AVampiresDance do research on Kyo before you open your trap. his voice is the most amazing voice ever, he can sing so beautifully. look Dir En Grey up before you make yourself sound so stupid.
@AVampiresDance r u serious ok so she can sing good but no even close the range to wat kyo has not even nearly close to hav the range kyo does is truely a gift i cant tel u how many ppl hav told me its impossible to maintain a singing voice n a death metal style its nearly impossible any vocal teacher wil tell u that u hav not shown me anything new
@AVampiresDance dude i am not going to type a damn essay. this is youtube. im too lazy spell shit out all the way. come to my english class and lecture me but not on the internet that just hurts ma feelings when i cant type relaxed
@AVampiresDance wel i am bummed for ur selection of singers my singer is better then urs by a long shot ur singer sings high bcuz shes a girl but my singer sings high bcuz he has talent n practice u hav lost this arguement shut up woman make me a fucking sandwich i like fries with em too
LOL i didnt even say what 'singers' i like. I listen to black metal so take your fucking ass back to 'i cantz spells land' u stil cnt spell. Do you even read what you write? Yes i'm sure you would like fries with your sandwhich because you probably stuff your fat ass face with it. I think you've lost this argument. And as I can see from your error you probably didn't finish high school. If you read my previous comments, I'm an anthropology major, I getting a PHD. hehe FUCK OFF FAG
@AVampiresDance i am in high skool buttface plus i live in bellevue so my education is proley almost equivalent to urs im jus saying she doesnt hav the range kyo does broseph
@AVampiresDance His style is what I like to call passion. I've never seen any other vocalist that could pull me into a song like he does. He's brilliant. I really get something from the music Dir en Grey make, they work so damn hard. They're the reason why I'm getting my life back together. Pussy-ass metal? Gimme a break. =_=
The hardest thing for me, facing the fear I live, No one can help me now its under my heart. I'll come to know the living, My demons are inside....I'll bring them all to light!♥ ~Apocolyptica
OMG!!!! waaa cuando mi primo m dijo no le crei!!!! O.O!!!!!!!!! dos d mis bandas favoritas juntas waaaaa I LOVE DIR EN GREY y APOCALIPTICA WAAA son la mera toz
hirveetä dissaamista apocalyopticaa kohtaa noissa joissain kommissa :D "kyo on liian hyvä apocalypticalle." onhan se hyvä mut c'mon... nää taitaa kaikki kyl olla kyo ja diru faneja eikä niinkään apocalyptica faneja..
When I saw a couple years ago he sounded incredible with his vocals. He could make some opera singers blush. he was that good. It was beautiful that range and clarity. He sounds a little edgy but then who knows his state here.
By listening to this, you can really tell how unique Kyo is as a vocalist. He can change it however he wants and perfect the song because he is so versatile.
FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCKKK!!! IT"S SO intense... Kind of like a double rainbow! :D Do you know if they'll be recording this? By the by, Kyo looks FUCKING A! I had a vision of him with short, black hair and then there he is in an issue of Ongaku to Hito. EPIC!!!
People are forgeting, especially Dir en grey fans; It's Apocalyptica FEATURED Kyo, not Dir en grey, just Kyo. And I feel sorry for the Diru fans (wasn't there, but I have been reading comments) who left since both bands are amazing. I may prefer old Diru and I'm not much of a Apocalyptica fan either, but I still would have watched "both" of them.
omg thank you so much for taking this! I'm a fan of both bands, was at their Boston show and had so hoped Kyo would do a song with them.... which he didn't... :(
@aronnian sorry they don't... the vikings comes from NORWAY, finland and mostly parts of sweden was a other kind of people, that I can't remember the name of now, and you must remember that it were the golden age of Norway, they controlled big parts of sweden so that the vikings from there also lived in that times norway..
btw, I'm from norway and they learn us a lot about it... and our height isn't small either :p I'm 1,86-88 metres high myself :P maybe more :P long time since I checked it...
People who say the camera work is no good...i don't know...maybe they haven't tried to film during a concert but it's VERY difficult to keep steady. I think you did a great job. And apparently, Dir en grey or whoever runs their myspace thinks so too, because you were linked from their blog. ^_^ Thanks so much for sharing.
This is great! I love seeing Dir en grey doing something together with another band at last! Kyo is so cool, I think he did really well together with them! Both band rocks!
I loved Apocalyptica (not the new ones, actually >.<) and I love Dir en Grey, but. I don't like it. ._. Maybe it's because of the quality, but it's not mine personal favourite.
im not a big fan of apocalyptica, but this is awesome! kyo did really good with this, and i was really surprised to see him do something like this. i really wish he would have done it while he was here in st louis lol... then i would have stayed for apocalyptica ._.
but poor kyo was kinda limping to the tour bus about 20 minutes after they got off stage. we managed to catch him and cheer him on [and get a glimpse of a smile :D lol]
:( i wanted to go!! >.< but it's too far and they were already in chicago. thanks for uploading this thou. i hear that alot of people left after dir en grey, which is dumb. why leave when u can see two band for the price for one. well not for the price of one cuz it probably costed alot :/ , but still. i would of stayed cuz i like both bands.
I went to the concert in chicago to see Dir en Grey, but I had listened to a few Apocalyptica songs before & I was looking forward to seeing them..but I couldn't stay for them -_- I had to drive my friend back up to WI so she could be back for an early class the next morning.
Maybe i'm just making an excuse..I just wanted to say that not all the Diru fans are bad i guess? It is rude of us to completely leave after they played. I'm sad i missed them, even if i wouldn't have seen this collab
@HillaryHell Yeah you had a good reason and you even looked up the band before. I know a lot of Dir en grey fans that didn't look up Apo before the show and the ones who stayed ended up loving them, and the one's who didn't are asking "Was that other band any good?" Haha.
I love both bands and I don't understand the people who left the concert. They should give Apocalyptica at least one chance. They are great artists and don't deserve people who leave their concerts just because they are not japanese or something. I bet if Apocalyptica was japanese, many of the Diru fans would have stayed.
Hey did anyone get the last song Dir en Grey played before the encore? I had never heard it before strangely :( Help? 1. Red Soil 2. Agitated Scream Of Maggots 3. Gaika, Chinmoku Ga Nemuru Goro 4. Hageshisa To, Kono Mune No Naka De Karamitsuita Shakunetsu No Yami 5. Obscure 6. Shokubeni 7. Rotting Root 8. Dozing Green 9. Vinushka 10. The Final 11. Reiketsu Nariseba 12. (Unsure about this one) Encore: Zan
As a fan of both bands, this is fucking awesome on so many levels *_* I'm jealous, I was hoping they would do something like this at the Chicago show...
For all the people who left right after Dir en grey (besides the one's with legit reasons), i'm happy you did because you don't deserve to see this live :P I'm a huge fan of both bands, so I went nuts.
I hate it when people walk out of shows, I think it's really disrespectful.
@TBZK I agree. I had to watch Dir En Grey from outside the pit. After they finished, a saw a bunch of people leaving. I asked a guy, 'Hey are you leaving? Can you give me your pit wrist band? I want to see Apocalyptica .. I'm a huge fan'.
Not only was he retarded to leave the show like that, but was rude and didn't give me the wrist band. But thankfully the venue gave me one.
I took this video mainly because it was Apocalyptica's world premiere of this song. But the guest musicians were great.
@metalassaultLA I'll never get ppl that won't try out another band- I've seen each band multiple times, and couldn't understand how ppl could chose one over another at a great show like this!
@metalassaultLA - It probably pisses off the of the other bands when that shit happens. I feel sorry for them, but you know [some... okay ALOT of] Dir en grey fans kind of live in this weeaboo world where music is only good if it's from Japan. They can be just as "closed-minded" as they accuse everyone who doesn't like Dir en grey of being. I love DeG, but it's always good to broaden your horizons. Btw, you get those msg's about questions for the next time you interview the band?
@TBZK I was so angry when I saw the Dir En Grey fans leave. I also like both bands, so I thought it was stupid they didn't even listen to a few songs by Apocalyptica before they left. I felt bad for Apocalyptica. But I'm also glad they left, because I got to be near the front for Apocalyptica.
@Yashieroko Yeah it shows how ignorant a lot of the fans are (jrock fans in general, they annoy me a lot. Obviously not all, but helluva lot lol). Like they didn't even just move to the back of the pit and let Apocalyptica fans forward, it was full on leave, how sad. But now i'm happy they did because they are now kicking their ass for not being able to see this amazingness haha. I enjoyed it fully for all of them in the front row lol.
@TBZK lol well i normally do that as well but like, my friend didnt wanna stay and i didn't feel like staying without her there and with my other friend up front in the pit lol.
@TBZK Its disrespectful AND a waste of money. Even though I got pretty overheated...and half deaf from standing right against the speaker in house of blues I would never think of leaving mid-show WHO KNOWS WHAT YOU'LL MISS -points at vid- lol
@NyteSkye Yeah exactly! Some crazy event or experience might happen, you never know. And people could always chill in the back and stuff. I find fun in every live event.I guess it's hard for some people to do that lol
@TBZK I absolutely agree with you. I saw Apocalyptica in Albuquerque and the vast majority of Dir en grey fans walked out, after Diru exited the stage. I'm glad that they didn't get to see this awesome performance live.
@TBZK@metalassaultLA You're not realising that some people have no choice but to leave. They may have to get home by a certain time because of curfew, or if they have children maybe a babysitter can't stay longer, or perhaps they (like myself) had to make it to a bus/train because they traveled a long distance. It isn't disrespectful to leave between sets, they are not disrupting anything. The people who yell insults or just chitchat during a band's performance, THOSE are disrespectful.
@everfree1998 I mentioned in my first post about it about legit reasons for leaving, which catching a bus or babysitter is one of the many. Minus those people, I still think it's disrespectful more to the people who have never tried out whatever band it is they left before.
@TBZK Ah ok i wasn't sure what "legit reasons" means to you...like unless they are injured in the pit and carried out on a stretcher haha... But yes if someone has to leave for reasons beyond control, i would hope it is not seen rude, as long as it is done during set change and not during performance.
@TBZK i can see how someone could feel that way, but personally, i wouldn't want to be in the pit, squished by a bunch of people, just to watch a band that i didn't come to see.
normally, i come to shows like these to see dir en grey or whatever...and so i sort of disagree (on a friendly level, not trying to start a fight here) with that idea...
@rosyyaoi2 I wouldn't go and be squished either. I usually hang by the back and watch from afar or the middle when it's a band i'm not fond of. Lol friendliness is wanted haha XD
@Flauschi13 and the fact that you just assumed they're "wapanese restards" makes you any smarter? if they leave it's their choice, it's their money so why bitch about it
Okay it's not 99% but it's pretty high lol... I am not one! Sometimes I'm sitting in line for hours and I have to stand next to crazy fan girls that feel the need to recite things they read about the band members from wikipedia.... *rage* It's about the music, not oogling the band members and drowning in a puddle of your drool.
@Flauschi13 Yeah, they love all these jrockers and think they are "uber hot kawaii" and really sweet.
And most of the new japanese bands are playing along, spending more time develouping their makeup collection and photoshop skills than actually learning to sing and play instruments.
It's fuckin' annoying.
Doesn't matter though 'cos in the japanese rock scene, music isnt important as long as you get a few girls wet here and there.. -.-
@SleepyFroggy Yeah, I hate that too. Sure they're fun to look at for a couple minutes, but the music of a lot of jrockers make (mostly the oshare kei ones) just grates on my ears and isn't even listenable.
@SleepyFroggy Well there are many jrockers with hard skill. Its because they´re asian and asian can do everything :D. There are so many nameless asian artist at youtube with much skill. And the jrockers arent always bad ;D
@dragonspirit1185 Hey dude. My camera doesn't zoom while recording video. Sorry that I have such a shitty camera and I'm sorry that I stood there for five minutes with my arms extended, to record this for all you people to enjoy and say 'crappy camera work'.
@metalassaultLA This is the best sounding one I've seen so far cuz everyone elses are from so far away. I'm so mad I didn't get to go, I love both bands.
Let's just be happy the microphone on this camera didn't clip like hell like on most hand-held videos. Of course, if you have professional film equipment, want to get passes, and record direct output from the performers and mix and master it before putting it on YouTube for no profit, be my guest. I'll settle for this in the meanwhile.
I came for Dir en Grey and I had to leave before I could see Apocalyptica. I hadn't really heard of them, but I was going to stay before I got a call saying I had to come home immediately. I'm upset that I couldn't stay though! This looks so awesome. Darnit!!
this is great....Kyo looks and sings very good here!
I noticed that he kept standing in one place, maybe he had too much respect to move on stage and perform coz it was like "Apocalyptica's stage" and he was just a guest. but that doesnt matter, I loved it.
I just read an article from Japan about the collaboration. Apocalyptica had to give up on playing this song during this tour because they didn't have the right vocalist. But when the tour started, they heard Kyo's voice and thought he's perfect for the song. They asked him to sing it for them. Kyo was very surprised and had to master the new song during the tour. They rehearsed on Sep. 4th for the first time and the Aplolyptica members loved it! They premiered it 4 days later in LA.
@TBZK No I don't think you can find it in English. I translated and summarized myself. This article is from "barks.jp" and the writer is their friend.
Kyo lo mejor wn!!!...el mejor cantante que existe!!!...no hay comparacion...It's a fucking god!!!

im not a big fan of apocalyptica, but this is awesome! kyo did really good with this, and i was really surprised to see him do something like this. i really wish he would have done it while he was here in st louis lol... then i would have stayed for apocalyptica ._.
but poor kyo was kinda limping to the tour bus about 20 minutes after they got off stage. we managed to catch him and cheer him on [and get a glimpse of a smile :D lol]

I went to the concert in chicago to see Dir en Grey, but I had listened to a few Apocalyptica songs before & I was looking forward to seeing them..but I couldn't stay for them -_- I had to drive my friend back up to WI so she could be back for an early class the next morning.
Maybe i'm just making an excuse..I just wanted to say that not all the Diru fans are bad i guess? It is rude of us to completely leave after they played. I'm sad i missed them, even if i wouldn't have seen this collab
HillaryHell 1 year ago
@HillaryHell Yeah you had a good reason and you even looked up the band before. I know a lot of Dir en grey fans that didn't look up Apo before the show and the ones who stayed ended up loving them, and the one's who didn't are asking "Was that other band any good?" Haha.
TBZK 1 year ago
I love both bands and I don't understand the people who left the concert. They should give Apocalyptica at least one chance. They are great artists and don't deserve people who leave their concerts just because they are not japanese or something. I bet if Apocalyptica was japanese, many of the Diru fans would have stayed.

For all the people who left right after Dir en grey (besides the one's with legit reasons), i'm happy you did because you don't deserve to see this live :P I'm a huge fan of both bands, so I went nuts.
I hate it when people walk out of shows, I think it's really disrespectful.
TBZK 1 year ago 27
@TBZK I agree. I had to watch Dir En Grey from outside the pit. After they finished, a saw a bunch of people leaving. I asked a guy, 'Hey are you leaving? Can you give me your pit wrist band? I want to see Apocalyptica .. I'm a huge fan'.
Not only was he retarded to leave the show like that, but was rude and didn't give me the wrist band. But thankfully the venue gave me one.
I took this video mainly because it was Apocalyptica's world premiere of this song. But the guest musicians were great.

@metalassaultLA I'll never get ppl that won't try out another band- I've seen each band multiple times, and couldn't understand how ppl could chose one over another at a great show like this!
Averyfane 1 year ago
@metalassaultLA - It probably pisses off the of the other bands when that shit happens. I feel sorry for them, but you know [some... okay ALOT of] Dir en grey fans kind of live in this weeaboo world where music is only good if it's from Japan. They can be just as "closed-minded" as they accuse everyone who doesn't like Dir en grey of being. I love DeG, but it's always good to broaden your horizons. Btw, you get those msg's about questions for the next time you interview the band?
Death2Bigots 1 year ago
@TBZK I was so angry when I saw the Dir En Grey fans leave. I also like both bands, so I thought it was stupid they didn't even listen to a few songs by Apocalyptica before they left. I felt bad for Apocalyptica. But I'm also glad they left, because I got to be near the front for Apocalyptica.
Yashieroko 1 year ago
@Yashieroko Yeah it shows how ignorant a lot of the fans are (jrock fans in general, they annoy me a lot. Obviously not all, but helluva lot lol). Like they didn't even just move to the back of the pit and let Apocalyptica fans forward, it was full on leave, how sad. But now i'm happy they did because they are now kicking their ass for not being able to see this amazingness haha. I enjoyed it fully for all of them in the front row lol.

@TBZK lol well i normally do that as well but like, my friend didnt wanna stay and i didn't feel like staying without her there and with my other friend up front in the pit lol.

I would have loved to see this personally. After Dir en Grey did their encore, they didn't come up or anything to feature for Apocalyptica...

@TBZK I absolutely agree with you. I saw Apocalyptica in Albuquerque and the vast majority of Dir en grey fans walked out, after Diru exited the stage. I'm glad that they didn't get to see this awesome performance live.

@TBZK most people(Diru fans)that left did it because no one knew Kyo and Shinya were coming back out. I regret leaving.
xxdiamondxheartsxx 1 year ago
@TBZK @metalassaultLA You're not realising that some people have no choice but to leave. They may have to get home by a certain time because of curfew, or if they have children maybe a babysitter can't stay longer, or perhaps they (like myself) had to make it to a bus/train because they traveled a long distance. It isn't disrespectful to leave between sets, they are not disrupting anything. The people who yell insults or just chitchat during a band's performance, THOSE are disrespectful.
everfree1998 1 year ago 2
@everfree1998 I mentioned in my first post about it about legit reasons for leaving, which catching a bus or babysitter is one of the many. Minus those people, I still think it's disrespectful more to the people who have never tried out whatever band it is they left before.
TBZK 1 year ago
@TBZK Ah ok i wasn't sure what "legit reasons" means to you...like unless they are injured in the pit and carried out on a stretcher haha... But yes if someone has to leave for reasons beyond control, i would hope it is not seen rude, as long as it is done during set change and not during performance.
everfree1998 1 year ago
@TBZK i can see how someone could feel that way, but personally, i wouldn't want to be in the pit, squished by a bunch of people, just to watch a band that i didn't come to see.
normally, i come to shows like these to see dir en grey or whatever...and so i sort of disagree (on a friendly level, not trying to start a fight here) with that idea...

@rosyyaoi2 I wouldn't go and be squished either. I usually hang by the back and watch from afar or the middle when it's a band i'm not fond of. Lol friendliness is wanted haha XD

GazeRock123 1 year ago 2
@Flauschi13 Yeah, they love all these jrockers and think they are "uber hot kawaii" and really sweet.
And most of the new japanese bands are playing along, spending more time develouping their makeup collection and photoshop skills than actually learning to sing and play instruments.
It's fuckin' annoying.
Doesn't matter though 'cos in the japanese rock scene, music isnt important as long as you get a few girls wet here and there.. -.-

@SleepyFroggy Yeah, I hate that too. Sure they're fun to look at for a couple minutes, but the music of a lot of jrockers make (mostly the oshare kei ones) just grates on my ears and isn't even listenable.

Let's just be happy the microphone on this camera didn't clip like hell like on most hand-held videos. Of course, if you have professional film equipment, want to get passes, and record direct output from the performers and mix and master it before putting it on YouTube for no profit, be my guest. I'll settle for this in the meanwhile.

I came for Dir en Grey and I had to leave before I could see Apocalyptica. I hadn't really heard of them, but I was going to stay before I got a call saying I had to come home immediately. I'm upset that I couldn't stay though! This looks so awesome. Darnit!!

this is great....Kyo looks and sings very good here!
I noticed that he kept standing in one place, maybe he had too much respect to move on stage and perform coz it was like "Apocalyptica's stage" and he was just a guest. but that doesnt matter, I loved it.

I just read an article from Japan about the collaboration. Apocalyptica had to give up on playing this song during this tour because they didn't have the right vocalist. But when the tour started, they heard Kyo's voice and thought he's perfect for the song. They asked him to sing it for them. Kyo was very surprised and had to master the new song during the tour. They rehearsed on Sep. 4th for the first time and the Aplolyptica members loved it! They premiered it 4 days later in LA.
