DIR EN GREY

Their OHP says “DISC 2 : CD -UNPLUGGED DISC-” for both of them.
No matter if the vocal takes are the same of if it’s rerecorded like RED SOIL, they’re still unplugged tracks, not remixes.
And yep, Dozing green is obviously not an unplugged version, just like the two tracks with “Japanese Lyrics Re-mastering”. I wasn’t referring to those though.

Hahaha omg, thank you. You’re right, I totally forgot you can create your own ringtones.

You the real MVP Nowhere Girl.

Man, I might be in the minority again, but I really like the ASOM unplugged version. The piano instrumentation is somehow so perfect and matches the chaotic vocals. This version is what I like to call “Flight of the Agitated Maggots”.

I’m actually a fan of choosing songs for unplugged versions which “don’t fit” at first sight. I mean, yeah, we get it. Ware yami tote and The pledge are ballads which go along with a piano/acoustic guitar. I don’t think ASOM unplugged was bad, it had strong free jazz vibes and matches perfectly, but it’s not something I could listen to regularly. I wish they’d still be that experimental

I’d be happy to hear anything close to Conceived Sorrow Unplugged on a remix/bonus disc

I agree with the alt take opinion. Their (Before Construction) ver. of Dozing Green is still in my Top 5 DEG songs.

Saw this earlier, am i the only one that is just thinking like “okayyyy???” when looking at this? Lol.

I see that girl from Ochita’s PV (with hole in forehead) in the “neck” area of the art. Can’t really understand the rest.

My faith in the fanbase has been somewhat restored.

They won’t upload all their albums to spotfiy? Wanted to listen to Arche today…
I wonder why.

So close!

Rip CD, put on phone?

Must be region specific, because Arche is on US Spotify. Gauze, Uroboros, and DSS aren’t though.

Weird. All the core releases are there in the UK. :confused:
