I've always found this to be one of the saddest and happiest Dir en grey songs. It is rather melancholy throughout, but at the end there seems to be hope.
of all dir en grey songs I've always had a fondness for this one the most. Even though I don't listen to them (or any Rock/J-Rock music anymore) this song still haunts me. Especially the remix from KAI.
lol apperantly you havent seen/heard their OLDER stuff >.> plz do your research, dude. By the way, for the person who posted this, thx a bunch for posting this in HQ ^^
ok, i did some research and it said that it was during the la:sadies time, and that it wastheir previous bassist, kisaki (the bassist in phantasmagori), kyo said that in an interview, but was that part true? it was stated that it was one of the few interviews he hasnt lied in
How about "Macabre" itself? Kyo sings about a bird and some insect it devours. Just think how cool yet creepy that'd be. ^_^ It'd be a longer video than either "Vinushka" or "Mazohyst of Decadence" though... o_O
@yannsi2000 This is not true, they are very successful, but B'z are officially the No. 1 best selling band, let alone rock band in Asia. Dur to the alternative nature of Dir en Grey, they will never hit a mainstream audience, as Alternative Metal goes, they are huge though...
It's true. The success of B'z is probably among the most unheard of. Unless I missed something recently, I don't believe they've ever once failed to get #1 for a single. (This has continued at least as far forth as Ai no Bakudan.)
Mr. Children is very successful as well I think, but I don't think they've been established as long as B'z (though longer than Dir en grey?).
@prznt X is much older then Luna Sea, LS is under YOSHIKIs musiclabel "Extasy Records". X is known as the greatest and most legendary Rock band in Jaoanese History..
@prznt I'm serious, I love both bands and I know that X are known as the greatest band. Did you ever saw them live? I saw both live, Luna Sea in Bochum in November and X in Berlin, last week. So, I'm serious. *FACEPALM*
@KuroNaoki Meeh, I am not fond of their stadium rock - style anymore, I might take up BB and Jealousy for example but songs like Jade or that another new song, instant no no for me - in this case, DEG wins it all with their constant genre changes. X Japan didnt progress at all since Dahlia
@prznt Well, they lost an important member too. And I think Sugizo fits Luna Sea better. But I looove when Sugizo and Yoshiki are playing violine and Piano together~
Jade is good to perform live because everyone can sing along at some parts :D
I feel pretty similarly, I think they are tops but not quite the only no. 1 for me. I like how they were back then too (despite not knowing until before Vulgar), and other V-kei.
Yeah I guess they do seem somehow less mainstream now in a way (I think you're saying that). The weird thing about them is how sporadically they release singles anymore. (Not really a big deal at all, but I was surprised Marrow had THREE singles, ha ha ha.)
@yannsi2000 It means increadible, excellent beyond belief, to have achieved great heights, to excel at something strongly. It is one of the highest compliments that can be given.
@yannsi2000 Awesome means something that you feel deep inside that is truly great and leaves you with no words to say about it. It fills you with awe, like seeing the face of God.
ow! man @.@

Love this song.
GOOD: Dir en grey is so diverse.
BAD: Dir en grey is so diverse.
There is a divide of fans who appreciate the pre-Withering to death Diru versus the heavier, less visual Diru up to now.
I can listen to this and enjoy it just as much as Different Sense. Its just preference i guess. I wish all Diru fans could be "one" though.

I firmly believe Dir is No.1 Rock band. they are amazing.
But "Dir en grey" , this name is known as old Visual-kei band in Japan.
Old Dir was "super Visual-kei" , and general people still recognize Dir as V-kei.
when they were V-kei, they went out to media much
a lot of people has discriminatory feeling for Visual-kei. This is true.
(I don't hate V-kei, I love them)
Sadly, Dir(now, well known to world rock scene) is not known so.
BY japanese fan
