  • the singer is fucking cool! my inspiration!

  • what the hell why did he bleed??????!!!!

  • @MyThiNg94 Kyo used to self mutilate on stage all the time on tour in Japan. He still does, but not to the same extent.

  • @samedeiros391 wtf srsly?? like did he bite his tongue off or something? y does he do that, omg.... it must hurt? o.O omg omg

  • @MyThiNg94 He tears at the insides of his cheeks or scratches his chest.

  • @samedeiros391 damn o.O k, not only i think he's creepy but you guys... don't seem to mind his self mutilation at all o.O damn

    how's he able to sing with a pool of blood in his mouth? >.<

  • @MyThiNg94 He's self mutilated for nearly a decade while performing. He did it before he was famous and he doesn't do it nearly as much now because audiences abroad don't perceive it as intended. It's become part of his definitive stage presence. It's his artistic self expression of the music and lyrics. Self harm, death, suicide, and severe depression, as well as other less than happy subjects, have always been major themes of Dir en grey's music. He's simply manifesting it in a live forum.

  • @samedeiros391 I see~ So he's always been a little emo kid`... I suppose he had a hard time as a child? He suffered from severe depression? That's why he put the pain and the feelings into the music?

    Where can I read about it? (the forum)

  • @MyThiNg94 I was enjoying this little conversation we were having until you called him "a little emo kid." Who are we to judge anyone else's self expression and choices? Or label someone you clearly know nothing about? No one knows what his childhood was like. It's never been confirmed if he battles depression or inner demons. He may just be a macabre story teller. Either way, he does what he does, and that gives you no right to insult him, especially with terms that don't apply to his culture.

  • @samedeiros391 Excuse me? But when did "emo" become bad? The ppl who uses the word are not the judging people, the ones like you are the ppl who makes the word "emo" bad! Especially when you react like that..

    If a person smiles and enjoys life i say that person is "happy", if i see a person who hurts/mutilates himself, it's not a shock i say he's "emo".. and who say emo kids don't have value?? Did i ever mean to insult him, and if i did why would i put so much time asking about him at all?..

  • @MyThiNg94 I still think Kyo used to sneak fake blood capsules into his mouth. He used to do this every night during this same song, there's no way someone could rip their mouth open like that on a regular basis and perform. His mouth would never heal and he would risk infection. Now the chest scratching was definitely real, but the mouth stuff? No.

  • @leroystanks Yeah I think you're right! Kyo is not stupid hurting himself day after day like that

  • if only they could see their songs now.....

  • That crowd just pissed me off...

  • God, dude. I saw them last night in a very small theater and the few people that were there were louder than that entire Family Values crowd. -_-...Granted, last night's show looked better than this one. xD

  • i dont blame the crowd it's best to see a band like this with listening intent, it's hard to focus on the sound when everyone is thrashing in your face

  • I paid for a full price ticket for this one band on this entire tour. As soon as they were done, I LEFT.

    And after the show, I was privileged and honored to shake Kyo's hand. Meeting him, with my slight nervous bow and mumbled "Domo arigatou gozaimashita, Kyo-sama," was honestly probably one of the best moments of my life. Thanking that man for saving me, for bearing his soul, even though hardly anyone there appreciated and understood anything about them, was a dream come true.

  • @samedeiros391

    How did he respond to you?

  • @Olitod After his eyes unbugged, he smiled, bowed back, and said "Thank you for coming" and shook my hand in both of his.

  • @samedeiros391

    Now you see, it's fans like you who keep Kyo willing to tour internationally. I think it's obvious he hates doing it, and at times I really wonder why he puts up with it. I hate the other types of obnoxious, loud and selfish fan....whereas you really told him something from the heart.

    I really hope to meet him too one day...

  • @Olitod They tour internationally now because American fans eat up their current noise. I'd want an American Blitz 5 Days. I would die for Cage and KR Cube live. This new stuff? I can't stand it. Cannot.

  • @samedeiros391

    o.O

    Ehh, that's unfortunate. I love all their songs, I would want to see a Blitz....8 days or whatever they need now to cover everything.

  • @Olitod If Kyo passed out after four days of Blitz 5, he'd die doing 9. The oldest song I've seen live was Mr. Newsman, that was back in 05.

    Yes, that they've degenerated into drunken whale song and noise is unfortunate.

  • Kyo: "Fuck this crowd, I'm gonna bleed on them"

  • That crowd was fucking terrible! Shit like that pisses me off! Bands feed off the energy of the crowd, you can tell they tried but the crowd just fucked them over and sucked the energy out of their performance.

  • @greenjibbles it tends to get like that when its the earlier staged bands

  • Metallica is a shit!!!!!!!!!

  • His reasons for fish-hooking himself & ripping his fingers open is that it's just Kyo. It's what he does. He likes to see people's reactions. He doesn't do this so much anymore, but back then, it was almost every show he'd do this. And the crowd was indeed terrible, he probably wanted a reaction from them.

  • the crowd is stuuuppppiiiiddddd

  • I meant it wouldn't be something you, me or tons of others would do, but as I said its how he deals so leave him alone

  • THE MUSIC IS SO GOOD! what the fack are the people in the crowd thinking? id be there rocking out like it was the end of the world!

  • this crowd sickens me. there see freaking DIR EN GREY! & there just standing there bored. i would be going crazy. i'm seeing them for the first time in Atlanta this December. sooooo excited!

  • That performance was intense! but the crowd...god the crowd is terrible...

  • @BiohazardGT It was early in the day at family values when dir en grey played! People we're just packing in at that time to see Korn and The Deftones!

  • I love Kyo emotions!!!

  • It's not really the crowd that's terrible, it's just that Dir en Grey back then was still developing a strong fan base in the U.S. during this tour and new listeners were still trying to get used to their music. After their popularity soared their cds started selling in U.S. stores such as Hot Topics alongside other popular bands.

  • Kyo makes Gene Simmons look like a pussy!!!

  • Why would you even cut yourself that's pathetic.

  • @Daan7000 your pathetic!

    

  • @Daan7000 he has his reasons. it may be pathetic but the saying 'walk a mile in his shoes' applies here. it would be something you or I would do, but he has his reasons and its how he deals.

  • worst crowd ever!

  • wie lasch die ami fans sind bzw die die auf dem consert waren

  • I like that badass guy who headbangs like through the whole thing even though no one else is moving. xD

  • The memory of me watching this video 4 years ago.. aah I was like DAMN ;D Kyo is amazing <3

  • those people doesn't move at all ? o.O

  • los amo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :3

  • Honestly if i heard dir en grey was playing as "back'up" or alongside korn for a tour.. i'd go for Dir en grey.

  • @RainboColour That's exactly what I did.

  • @RainboColour Korn rocks too, though I will admit alot of band's that they take on tour with them are more talented, Like Dir en Grey! Korn's been at since 1993 as well! and have been able to have success and be in spotlight along time, alot of other bands look up to bands like that, And korn had great success now they're giving back to the people by bringing alot new talent/and some of there favorite bands on tour!Im thankful korn brought dir en grey cause i had NO idea about them

  • @RainboColour It's Korn's festival they started the Family Values in 1998...All band's that play at Family Values are alongside korn

  • geez what's wrong with the fans? They're just standing there!

  • @xXxMIZAKExTEHxEMOxXx the ''wrong'' with the fans is that they actually arent DeG fans!

  • kyo looked kinda nervous out there at the beginning of kodoku ni shisu, yueni kodoku but i think its one of there best performances of the song ever XD

  • I'm pretty sure they dubbed in the cheering crowd when the song starts. Hardly anybody knew the band back then, let alone the songs.

  • the song starts at 0:42

  • My friends saw them live for the first time here.

    Kyo is a fucking amazing being! I adore this man so much. So much talent is one person. <3

  • Omg... This Dark Karra almost 1 hit me. It hit 2.7k.. I have 2.78k Health. 0__0

  • does he just rip the insides of his mouth or literally rips his teeth out?

  • @mrfreedomthomas He rips his teeth out and glues them back in after the show.

  • @mrfreedomthomas i hope for ur sake your not stupid enough to believe what that retard told you he doeant rip his teeth out. nobody has the strength or grip to rip out a tooth that is rooted to your jaw bone. he just rips his mouth up

  • @allshallperish35 of course i didn't believe that. but yea the other thing is believable that's kinda cool actually and would be cool if Kyo was that badass he rips out his own teeth

  • I love that him NEVER is complety dressed xD always the tshirt go away

  • HOLY ASS! kyo......i would not be caught dead with him in the pit.

  • "I love, the little singer.. He whips his mouth open and bleeds everywhere.." --LOL--

  • It is so cool how Kyo rips the inside of his mouth open and can still scream and sing perfectly. Anybody that thinks thats fake is retarded.

  • Dir en Grey són valientes,no sólo por abrirse a america,si no por dar a luz a ese estilo tan propio,tan original,me atrevo a decir que es de los mejores grupos del mundo,y no exagero.

  • Thanks for uploading. That was awesome.

  • lllD empire performance was awsome along with kodoku ni i kinda felt a lil bad for them cuz kyo did evrything up there and the crowd wuz just "snore" it just sux that toshiyas mic wuz so quiet cuz he did a relly cool screem at 5:54

  • did he break his own nose?

  • @ohhaistephen no it's something he does for theatrics and to keep fans that are new surprised and give people that have seen them befor something different every single show.

  • why can i hear loud cheer at the beginning, but the crowd looks so still... ?"

  • that was it indiana rlly wasnt used to seeing sutch greatness and when u got a dude up there cutting him self sometimes u do go O_O woooow but the crowd was just shocked cuz if i remember right that night was rocking the hell out that place if fir en grey ever comes back you know damn well im gonna be there and screw off to anyone who says they are trying to be like manson ,,|,, Manson dont have crap on dir en grey and i am a very big Manson fan as well thank god for kyo

  • They're very brave for touring in America for the first time. :3

    With the odds against them, they did pretty well! 

  • As Kyo walks off the stage: "Fucking hell, I need more speed"

  • what 's the name of first song ?????

  • @elevatortv ~ Kodoku Ni Shisu, Yueni Kodoku ~

  • Dude. . .does Kyo actually look nervous to anyone in the beginning?!

  • The singer is fucking spliting his face open and the crowd just stands there like zombies. The crowd is pathetic.

  • That is one crazy Japanese man.... I like him

  • Went to this tour back in the day. Got me in love with Dir En Grey ^^

  • Never seen the mutilation, but that's pretty ballsy!

  • Whats The Name Of This Song?

  • @skaterdudenum5 There was more than one song, and it says the name of the song before it plays.

  • Dir en grey fans are this boring when they're watching a support band.

  • i love how kyo took a breath before singing like "oh shit...americans.....better not fuck up" XD

  • @ThrashingInAcidRain Wasn't this live in canada?

  • @Cass0emoheart hmm i dont know O_O but if you see the video Diru does state the difference from japanese and american fans :P so i assumed it was in america

  • @ThrashingInAcidRain Nah, I've watched the whole DVD. The majority of their tour took place in the US, it was just this one show that was canadian. I remember it quite well because I was kinda pissed off at my fellow canadians for just standing there =_=

  • I just wanna point out, Im pretty sure that those r the same white shoes Kyo wore on the train scene from the Macabre dvd. u guys remember! They look at them right be4 Kaoru n Shinya trade CD books n Kaoru laughs at Shinya's CD's or lack there of!

    btw, those fans r like fuckin dirty cunt bubbles just standing there, prob. been drinkin since last night n pissin' all over themselves, angry cuz they cant understand the lyrics, listen 2 the melody, google lyrics when u get home bitches!

  • Fuck ... I'm disappointed with that crowd...

  • wow he said that american are more free to enjoy the show wtf they r stiff as hell japanesse ppl enjoy the concert more now those are crazy ppl O.O

  • he called kyo "little singer" so cute. :D

  • he called kyo "little man" so cute. :D

  • lmfao i saw them at family values tour in indiana they freaking kicked ass and some

    i have to agree that crowd was to buissy p1ssing there selves in awh

  • either that is the worst crowd ever....or they are just in awe of the best j-rock band ever. let's just go with that. ;)

  • I wouldn't give myself a paper cut for a crowd that terrible.

  • At what point do you see a man cut open his mouth and get blood all over his face while screaming like deranged madman and NOT start moshing? Fuck that crowd.

  • Since when does Kaoru use PRS guitars???

    So confuuuused

  • i'm sure the fans can't understand the lyrics

  • ...what is up with the crowd? So boring.

  • kyo= lost it, he's jumping, bleeding, screaming, growling, crawling, doing some awesome shit I don't even know how to name it. crowd=silently standing and observing the show. .... WTF?????

  • @zizvzaznza They arnt true fans obviously, If I was at a DeG concert or any other band I like, Ide be fucking losing it just like him

  • @zizvzaznza It happens at festivals. Most people who see a band they don't know opening for a band they went to see won't go very crazy because they don't know what to do. They're more interested in listening to the music, finding out if they like it or not.

  • @zizvzaznza He probably lost it because the crowd was fucking boring as hell. XD

  • He could be singing about stroking puppies for all i care, dir en grey is fucking hard shit. Phenomenal.

  • Kyo's fucking bleeding and the crowd's just standing there. If I was in that crowd, oh my God. I'd be screaming and head banging like crazy. I'm not even a head banging kind of person.

  • toshiya is such a violent bassist...love it.

    If I had to sing in front of such a boring audience I would also just focus on myself and get crazy.

    haha, 7:01 as soon as he took the bucket I knew this moment had to come ;)

    fuckin awesome live band, period.

  • its so sad how they are fucking jamming onstage O_O and the crowd is so shitty. they're rockin out up there. kyo's wriggling around all bad-ass-ish, and the crowd is just standing there >:I

  • What song were they playing?

  • @trouble1macker202 First one was Kodoku ni Shisu, Yuenki Kodoku, second one was The IIID Empire

  • holy fuck. whats with the fucking crowd. kick the shit of them. shove them into someone else. god damn it that pisses me off. bitch ass fuckin kykes that dont know what to do with them selves when there at an epic concert. THAT DUDE JUST FUCKED HIMSELF UP ON STAGE AND WAS BLEEDING EVERYWHERE. i dont know if its fake or not but its still crazier than most of the shit that bands do. if i was there i would fuck everyone of those people up. they need a swift kick in the nuts.

  • @XinVinnie

    Its totally not fake xD

    he claws the inside of his mouth

    Mans got talons!

  • delightfully spastic : )

  • Danm straight american fans are fucking crazy :) just our government sucks

  • Jonathan<3

  • damn this guy is fucked up.... i love it :D

  • Weak ass audiance we must pay homage to the gods on stage by headbanging and being the biggest disruption possible in the moshpit these people have no right being there.

  • my favorite japanese band taking over the world!!! :D

  • yeahhh kyo are awesome!!! waaa!!!

  • @jobrozrock yeah but it's true he IS little ^^

  • Kyo has RABIES nuff said

    (p.s. he is awesome)

  • one fist pumper.. no mosh pits or nuttin... ? weak.

  • kyo was unbelieveable.. american fans pathetic.

  • Comment removed

  • it doesn't matter who is performing show respect bitches!!!

  • Kyo looks so crazy & fun c:<

  • that crowd can suck it.....

  • dir en grey = sons of korn...

    they tried sounds like korn

  • @michikuTV seriously? can you like listen to uroboros and say they try to sound like korn...?

  • @xnovanx uroboros??? 2008/2009 album?? after 2008/2009 DEG try sound like korn...they copy all for them..

  • @michikuTV lol how? the styles are completely different so how can you say dir en grey is trying to copy korn? gutteral vocals, and moderate guitar play that revolves around asian sounds is korn? i doubt it man

  • @xnovanx fucking posser check the guitars effect in obscure and later listen daddy...the same idea...or falling away for me...

  • @michikuTV the guitars affect is just delay and on obscure the tempo is at a higher pace and isn't bass driven at all so what's with the fucking poser shit lol and obscure was release in what? 2003? 7 years ago and you're basing that dir en grey copied off their style in 1 song which is ridiculous

  • @xnovanx just delay o.o??? and vibrator with triangule mode...and is a korn idea,and the tuning is so down same korn...and later kyo with adidas pants and coat?? like j.davis? listen the III d empire,is how listen to korn..same ideas and 7 years ago?? korn is 16 years ago dir en grey is dir en grey before vulgar

  • @michikuTV everyone down tunes their guitars, even the gazette down tune it all the way to drop B and every album that dir en grey made had shown a progressive attitude towards metal, zan which was on one of their first cds already shown metal elements and vulgar was made 7 years ago the height of korn's popularity and which shows a reason why'd you think they copied korn but marrow of the bone sounded nothing like korn, nor did uroboros, or the new singles.

  • @xnovanx dir en grey clary have korn influences...and the gazette??? THE GAZETTE???? !! 2002 band?? is a new band,without innovation...tkorn is since 1994,at the gates is since 1990 (ex-slaughter),rob zombie (1985),deftones (1988),and etc...dir en grey is influenced by all nu metal bands later vulgar...and you say the gazette?? jajaajoajoaajoa x'DDDD if you listen true metal,listen at the gates,possessed,death,misery index,nazum...i like dir en grey,but old dir en grey

  • @michikuTV lol i said everyone has since down tune their guitars, i never said anything about influences, and i said clearly at the height of korn's popularity it had influenced vulgar but that doesn't mean it's copying so clearly you either don't understand a spot of english or just bluntly trolling and it's fucking stupid, death is a great band and to hear you even utter that band's name is a damn shame because death was about music, not metal. their last album shows it to.

  • the crowds dead wtf

  • the inside of his mouth has to be fucked beyond all belief, like just shredded...got thats so kickass

  • i saw them at family values in tampa, and they actually had a huge crowd when they performed, i was literally on the gate between security and the stage, these guys were fucking amazing, dude destroyed himself, put a bucket over his head and beat the shit out of it, took it off and was bleeding everywhere, it was badass!

  • Cmon people you guys need more enthusiasm....if I was there, I'd be screaming until I lost my voice.After that, I'd still try to scream.These people should be happy that DIR EN GREY went there in the first place

  • Do you know what city they recorded the live footage? It looks a lot Clarkston, Michigan.

  • whats the first song called ????????/

  • wow crowd sucks cock

  • yeah...... Crowd is Lame...

  • it was a crappy crowd because it was family values tour...

  • That was the worst crowd that dir en grey has played for. if I was in that crowd, I would headbutt on of the guard and grab kyo's hand. XD

  • its hard to find a crow to get it to new music they never herd before plus people stoped moshing years ago atest to "new" stuff they never herd

  • I haven't been listening to Dir en Grey for very long. What album should I buy first?

  • @Skatingisgood if you're willing to drop serious cash, buy vulgar

    if not, go to fye and pick up whichever you see first

  • @Skatingisgood I'd go for Vulgar first then if you like them then buy the others, I own most of the albums and live DVD's etc. I like the production on "Marrow of the bone" because the production is really underground sounding, like a grindcore band such as Pig destroyer

  • most of the audience is american and sadly my fellow nation members aren't exactly open minded, music has no boundaries, you can literally feel the intensity from his screams

  • holy shit whats theyre first song called it was straight up badass

  • Terrible crowd. Cept that girl in the front. She was gettin' into it

  • Jonathan Davis <3

  • Poor Kyo , he is awesome!!! *O* ... yeah this is the WORST crowd ever seen ¬_¬

  • worst fucking crowd EVER!!!!

  • loco ql como te rompis y te llenay de sangre ql xd

  • i think that was in nj. the venue has the pit in far back away from the stage. they fucking tore it up when i saw them.

  • man, I feel sorry for Dir en grey.....the crowd was terrible!!!!!!

  • Dude whats with the crowd?

  • I went to FVT to see them and yeah the crowd were pretty lame when they were on. I think it was a combo between the fact that most of the crowd didn't know them and the language thing. I had the time of my life though. AND I felt honored when I heard somebody say "IDK 'em but their drummer is fucking awesome" lol XD

  • lol, i bet they felt that they were like a new band, no ones D: all over again in this concert :))

  • You see that this croud sucks ass? Where I live, everyone is like that T^T

  • kyos scream=awesome!! the crowd does suck tho. i seen them live once before and the crowd i was in, there was mosh pits everywhere! :)

  • kyo gets pissed with the crowd at 7:31 and wants to throw the red thing but he was to tired
