DIR EN GREY New Album "PHALARIS" Release

I hope not, I’d prefer the two as separate styles as possible, obviously there’s at least a handful of songs by sukekiyo that sound like deg, but we don’t need more. :no_good_man:

Let us not forget “YOKUSOU NI DREAMBOX” ARUIWA SEIJUKU NO RINEN TO TSUMETAI AME

Despite all of this, it’s the most expensive album the band has ever released, at ¥9,900 for the deluxe version Blu-ray.
Only the LP versions of UROBOROS and DUM SPIRO SPERO have been more expensive.

Damn, I’m actually kinda disappointed. Less content for more money…

Maybe it has some insane packaging like BEAUTIFUL DEFORMITY’s special edition.

Maybe the CD is inside a bull statue.

Mostly because of Sogai, I assume

Maybe it’s because every copy of Phalaris is personalized.

I have my fingers crossed we get some fiery album art, maybe something red/orange for a change.

Insulated World wasn’t colorful enough for you?

Kaoru confirmed that the “Mukai” in the English tracklist is a mistake.
And that 13 is pronounced “Thirteen”, not “Juusan”.

It’s kinda interesting that 13 is track number 4. So, it plays with both Japanese and Western superstitions

TIW stands out from the rest, and I sure wouldn’t mind if they had two in a row like that. They have plenty of mossy/monochrome covers.

Only about a month away, normally we don’t get more teases/samples? Or one more music video?

This is par the course for Dir en grey. Even if we get a preview, it’s gonna be 15 seconds and 6 of them will be spent fading in.

can’t wait for Eddie (Radio Edit Ver.)

So just Ed for short?
