DIR EN GREY

Have they ever delayed any release before? I wanna say no.

Always heard, never cared.

Arche

妄想格外劇 and 妄想統覚劇 were delayed.
Their debut singles were delayed.
ARCHE was delayed.

I thiiink those are all, but not sure.

So pretty few and far between then right? Lol I doubt this will be late then.

Even if it is late, it will only be by a few weeks. At max a month or two. And I would rather they delay it and get it right then rush it and get it wrong.

While we wait, I’d need help with two things:

I’d like to know the songs they played at The Joint, in this video, starting from 7:04 until 7:40. The intro is of course G.D.S., but there are very short snippets of, I think, three or four more songs:
~7:20 (Shinya drumming)
~7:25 (Toshiya’s bass ending a song)
~7:31 (Die rocking)
~7:35 (Kyo’s last scream)

Also, I’m looking for attendees of these shows:

lol, meme battle of old vs new :smiley:

Also since fans were called Toriko and Followers at some point. Fun coincidence

Yeah, that’s what I mean :smiley: definitely no coincidence x)
And at this rate, Erode will probably never be performed again ._.

It was paired with The IIID Empire :frowning: No chance, sadly.

yeah sure Shinya just randomly revealed the first song DEG ever played, no big deal

Semi-finals or whatever the fuck it is.

If you want to choose one - you must reply to that particular tweet.

I’m pretty sure they didn’t take twitter’s anti-spam stuff into account… or did something happen during the stream, for them not to make a poll?

Fujieda (I think it’s him?) took out different, smaller box.


And from it he grabbed BotDV and Bugaboo.

Maybe they just wanted to separate this “semi-final” from normal voting? Dunno.

RINKAKU… :sob:

Sustain The Untruth over Behind a Vacant Image

nice to know that over 50% of twtr deg fans woke up and chose to commit war crimes today

Either TWOM kids do their massacre in Latin America, or T.D.F.F. is more than just a laser discoteque


Toriko vs Followers
Winner: Toriko

This is okay.

Soshaku vs Decayed Crow
Winner: Soshaku

No. Shoshaku is forgettable. DECAYED CROW goes hard.

Dreambox vs Repetition of Hatred
Winner: Dreambox

Yes, even though RoH is awesome, too.

The IIID Empire vs Erode
Winner: The IIID Empire

Yes, unless it’s the dog-ass remake version. Erode never did much for me.

Marmalade Chainsaw vs Shitataru Mourou
Winner: Marmalade Chainsaw

Not really the biggest fan of either song. I’ll go with the crowd and say Marmalade.

Juuyoku vs 「S」
Winner: 「S」

「S」 is an all right song that’s completely incomparable to the majesty of the songwriting and performance in Juuyoku… or maybe I just have no taste.

Cage vs New Age Culture
Winner: Cage

While I love NAC, Cage is probably the better song.

Sustain the Untruth vs Behind a Vacant Image
Winner: Sustain the Untruth

Dudes, Sustain is shit-tier DIR EN GREY. WTF.

Beautiful Dirt vs Different Sense
Winner: Different Sense

Okay, yeah.

Hydra -666- vs Rinkaku
Winner: Hydra 666

Rinkaku, one of the most beautiful DEG songs in the catalogue, loses to edgelordbait 6!6!6! OOGABOOGA ~ooh~so~scary~ S̸̡͙̦̪̪͒̌͠Ą̶͈̤̹̖̣̗̠̱͛̓̋̐̑͠T̷̲̣͎͈̚Ä̴͉͕̝̩̺́̿͒̑̾̇N̷͉̥͉̤͊̓͐̿̍̄̉͝!!!1!!!11!!!+̲)̲a̲n̲ i̲n̲je̲c̲t̲i̲o̲n̲.

I despair in the fanbase.
