These guys have been my favorite band for several years now. I just can't get over the music they write.. I've never heard anything like it. It's simply wonderful. Die is my favorite guitarist EVER. Him and Kaoru don't ever try to melt people's faces with pointless shredding, but instead simply write great music. I love that about them.
(Part II) I Know He Used to Smoke, and Cigarettes always tend to deepen your voice, even if you stop with it (Ville Valo is another example). Third and MOST IMPORTANT of all. I understand Kyo. He don't cares if losing a high note, he just will try to express everything he feels inside of him. And He'll Give ALL he have when performing, and even all he Can't. Because Kyo is not a simple singer. He's much more than that. He's a true performer, he'll put everything of him into his singing...
(Part I) First of All, I`m not a Dumbass guy who simply says "Dir en Grey can't play Live", or "Kyo can't sing live". I Know, these guys simply give all they can during live performances, proof of that, the instrumental parts are amazing live. The Only Disappointing thing about their lives is Kyo's singing. Again, i'm not a dumbass, i understand First: It's Obvious that Relentless Screaming and Growling will start killing your voice during a long period of time.
best live performance!!!kaoru roxxx!! 3.01-3.07 the wire was stuck and kyo try to loose it while focusing on his singing.kinda ^_^ for me..XD.am i the only one who realized it? lol
@crapass666 that has to be with general japanese mentality of anti-individualism. even though i admire japan for so many things, i can't get used to this certain one. i'm also for individual acting. it has less of a creepy collective intelligence thing... ^^
@exoticarfan I suppose that you haven't read his interview yet. He said "I don't care whether I miss the notes or lyrics or rhythm on the stage. expressing myself to audiences is my priority" What a great speech it is. Even so I still want him to sing main chorus. coz I love this song. maybe I expect him too much.
@tarouza69 There is no point of singing nonstop without letting the audience sing and join you. If I were in a band i would shut up just to hear them scream so hard my song. It'll make me so proud. Then i'll join them too...and if i were at the audience i would like him to stop singing, listen to all of us and feel us. Expecially in that part " So i can't live" Dont you? ^^
So I've been watching videos of live performances for the wacken open air 2011. And it just doesn't stand up to this, Dir En Grey are best at home(you guys know that).. Point being I can't wait for another Japanese soil performance. The crowd and Diru are truly one in Japan
i would like to say that it's actually Die who makes this version this good. Listen to his picking and octave chords people. It's mostly his difference that makes this version stand alone.
@borded619 Hi there, I think that's his new Artist model bass from ESP. Not sure about the electronics but the shape is similar to the bass used by Ikuzone of Dragon Ash =]
They did an amazing job here, sadly his voice is sub-par to his earlier work...but his screams have greatly improved so i guess it's a preTTy good trade-off. Still wish he was singing like he used to.
@W1Nt3r48 Oh the touring live thing yea i'll agree with you, i myself have toured for months on end and I'll say my voice isn't the best of shape by the 3rd venue (out of 15 @.@) But it seemed like the Uroboros Album he had a trade-off moment, to keep singing crystal clear like in the Osaka Dome or Blitz 5 days moments or scream like i have been doing for more U.S. support. He chose the latter which is wise but gawd do i miss the blitz 5 days lol
@ska2808 And what if it's my favourite band and I wanna stand at the front and support them? Do I have to stand back because I'm smaller and weaker and can't bear 2 hours of pushes and punshes in that heat?
For once, I wish I'd been there. I doubt I'll ever have the honour of seeing this man perform live. Even if they come back to germany, they won't play ballads, only hard metal songs people can headbang to. I almost asphyxiated once because of all the pushing and recklessness, and that band wasn't as hard es DEG. I wouldnt go to their concerts for headbanging for 120 min...half and half would be great.
ah, it's sad. I give a lot to hear GLASS SKIN live.
@Athaleth Dude they came to Texas so me and my cousin drove ot Houston to see them. They played this, Obscure, The Final, Merciless Cult, Vinushka, GlassSkin and soo many awesome songs!!
Dir En Grey is just EPIC. There's no band on earth (at least in my opinion) that is this amazing on record and live. Skills and showmanship are just out of this universe!
They are the ONLY japanese band that I'm still following to this day!
You know whats great about going to a Dir en Grey live show? Well i myself have never gotten a chance to see them which is sad, but the fact that you can expect to headbang and tear up as well, and experience other emotions with their music cause of their versatility.
@nomo967 You're right. The musicians are even more important cause the actually make the music Kyo sings to. Without them, Kyo would just be a singer/noisemaker
@VeeValter what about toshiya?? D: is basslines for this song are actually more complex then the guitar riffs (in this song anyway) why do ppl always leave the bassist out to dry?? >.< and beyond that, shinya is actually the most talented member of the band but he doesnt get asmuch credit as he deserves.. especially from die rofl
@Zareh262 lol i guess he doesnt get as much credit during lives because he's the least seen on stage which is of course do to The Great Wall of Shinya (his massive drum set xD)
@TheRed343 That drum set is just so damn intimidating! And everything on it gets used which is amazing. They need to start doing little jam sessions during the concert with him and Toshiya.That would be reason enough for me to see them live. :3
These guys have been my favorite band for several years now. I just can't get over the music they write.. I've never heard anything like it. It's simply wonderful. Die is my favorite guitarist EVER.
