Vulgarity!

2007-08-10 [Tyrant Calhoun]: Wow. That guy musta been really really stoked to do such a thing. Or really bored. (Doubg it)
Yumm!! Dirt!

2007-08-10 [MadHatress]: I guess, but the pit only lasted for like...20seconds!!
(he was probably high) oh yes, my shoulder was really hungry...lol

2007-08-10 [Tyrant Calhoun]: Oh yes! Now my shoulder's jealous dammit! Who's got some dirt?!

2007-08-11 [MadHatress]: XDD...no, no dirt....just memories

2007-08-21 [lucent]: Woah.
That sounds awesome.
I dont know if you guys have heard of Earthday Birthday, but it's this big concert down in Florida and it had this immense mosh pit.
Crazzyyy.

2007-08-21 [MadHatress]: awwwwwwwwesome, lol
no, i dont think ive heard of it

2007-08-21 [lucent]: It's really good, most people go for the party than the music though.

2007-08-21 [MadHatress]: lol...well of course

2007-08-21 [lucent]: Bullet for my Valentine, Three Days Grace, Papa Roach, Saliva, Nonpoint, and some more bands were there.
:D

2007-08-21 [MadHatress]: oh...i like 3/5 of those bands! lol

2007-08-21 [lucent]: :D
It was really fun.
There were sooo many topless fat ladies though.
That wasn't so fun.

2007-08-21 [MadHatress]: X_X wow...ew

2007-08-21 [lucent]: Yeah, tell me about it.
The people next to me were passing a joint and all the cops did was tell them to put it out.

2007-08-21 [MadHatress]: XDD
wow...

2007-08-21 [lucent]: I was like.
"....oh."
Niiiccceee.
haha

2007-08-21 [MadHatress]: lol...it was like that at ozzfest too...only the cops just walked right on by

2007-08-21 [lucent]: That's so crazy,man!
:D

2007-08-22 [MadHatress]: lol...I wasn't complaining! I got the best contact buzz(more like a high) ever! XD

2007-08-22 [lucent]: XD
Pretty much.
And there was sooo much beer there, I probably got a contact buzz too!
XD

2007-08-22 [MadHatress]: XDD
O wouldn't ne supprised!

2007-08-30 [1 sad sexually]: "Seven months since the release of their latest album and close to a year since their last single, Dir en grey is finally releasing a new single, DOZING GREEN, on October 24th. The band has also scheduled their second domestic standing tour of the year, TOUR07 DOZING GREEN, starting on September 13th, and plan to follow that by once again touring in America and Europe, dates for which have yet to be announced."

This is the first I've read lately, so they'll be back soon?

2007-08-31 [Whiskers]: God, fuck, you beat me to it >_<

2007-08-31 [Fake smiles and Bittersweet kisses]: awww its ok i still love you tyler

2007-08-31 [1 sad sexually]: Sorry! I had to share, it's exciting news, tour + new single. >3<

2007-08-31 [lucent]: *fangirls*
I LOVE YOU GUYS!

I can't wait till they tour again. And A new single in a month!
<33

2007-09-01 [Whiskers]: Two months.
And I'll get setlists for as many shows as I can :3
I'm predicting that the three live tracks will be DISABLED COMPLEXES, REPETITION OF HATRED, and THE DEEPER VILENESS

2007-09-01 [lucent]: Ohmygod.
I SO want to see DISABLED COMPLEXES live.
That'd be an awesome live song.

2007-09-02 [1 sad sexually]:

Disabled complexes is awesome, especially when kyo does his little dance at the beginning.

2007-09-02 [Whiskers]: They performed it at the show I went to in February

2007-09-03 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: Hahaha You're wrong about the track lists for the new single!!!

New Single『DOZING GREEN』
2007.10.24 Release　update

【Track List】
DOZING GREEN
HYDRA -666-
AGITATED SCREAMS OF MAGGOTS (LIVE)
*LIVE take at PACIFICO YOKOHAMA on April 21, 2007

Only one live track and damn I can't wait to listen to Hydra 666!!! I pulled out my macabre cd and have been listening to it since I found out!

And as far as the new tour goes I found this out
TOUR07 DOZING GREEN
Dir en grey announced a domestic standing tour for the second time this year, following to the tour in North America and Europe. The band will tour from Hokkaido to Fukuoka and this tour includes 2-day exclusive shows only for fan club memberships in Kanagawa and Kyoto. You will definitely see more radical stages of the band than ever. Don't miss it!

2007-09-04 [Whiskers]: I've known about that tour thing for a while
And maybe HYDRA -666- will be a new track? Or a rerecording of Hydra?
Also, Dir en grey will be playing with the Deftones on November 25, at the Roseland Ballroom in New York

2007-09-04 [1 sad sexually]: I heard the Nov. 25th thing was a mistake. o-o idk, I haven't looked into it much so you're probably right. If they re-do Hydra, then maybe we'll have a better chance to hear it live?

2007-09-05 [lucent]: :D
Sweeett.
The Hydra thing, that's AWESOME.
XD

2007-09-05 [Whiskers]: DOZING GREEN

2007-09-14 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: I'm pretty sure that hydra 666 will be a remake...because this set list hints at that Dir en grey are feeling the macabre love!!!

2007-09-15 [1 sad sexually]: Ah well sorry, I actually only found out about the Europe tours today. I've been working.

2007-09-15 [MadHatress]: Dynamite tommy?

2007-09-15 [Whiskers]: DYNAMITE TOMMY is the producer of almost every Dir en grey album/single.

2007-09-15 [MadHatress]: aw, well that's just sad...Y_Y

2007-09-15 [Tyrant Calhoun]: Oh no! What's going to happen with Dir En Grey's production now?

2007-09-15 [lucent]: I hope that doesn't come back on them.
:/

2007-09-15 [MadHatress]: yeah really...that would suck, hardcore

2007-09-15 [Tyrant Calhoun]: Definitely. Reading the forum and seeing that the only band name mentioned was Dir En Grey was like 'ouch.'..

2007-09-15 [lucent]: But Kaoru could reflect the hatred with his hxc force field...


Sorry, Jrockhumor refrence. D:

2007-09-15 [MadHatress]: *worried laugh* yeah, that made me think a bit too...

2007-09-15 [Tyrant Calhoun]: I should get this joke but I don't? What's going on?

2007-09-15 [MadHatress]: read the links in [Whiskers]s comment...

2007-09-15 [lucent]: Nope, I'm wondering if anyone would get that.
It's okay,
XD

And it's like, "Such bands as Dir en grey.."
And I'm like, D:

2007-09-15 [MadHatress]: *did the same thing*

2007-09-16 [Whiskers]: All I know is that Free-Will has released a statement saying, like, "We do not support this, we are sorry, please continue to support our bands, blah blah blah."

2007-09-16 [lucent]: Oh good.
D:
I was worried for a while.
That still sucks.

2007-09-16 [MadHatress]: *sigh of relief*
Y_Y I feared for poor Dir en grey...

2007-09-17 [1 sad sexually]: LMFAO. Sorry. I get the Kaoru hxc thing. -jrockhumorstalker-

2007-09-17 [lucent]: THANK YOU.

2007-09-28 [Whiskers]: Well, here it is . . . the unveiling of . . . Dir en grey Setlists

2007-10-01 [1 sad sexually]: I dont know if anyone else knows this here but they put up a sample clip of DOZING GREEN

http://www.direngrey.co.jp/english/e-information.html

2007-10-01 [Whiskers]: I was about to say that D:
But thank god it's different than Agitated Screams of Maggots. I mean, I like that song and all, but it's great that they're still changing their style.

2007-10-01 [lucent]: I know.
They're still good, but.. you know what i mean.
:D

2007-10-01 [Whiskers]: They were going down the road of being "just another metal band"

2007-10-01 [lucent]: Exactly.
:3
But knowing them, i'm so happy they changed the sound.

2007-10-02 [1 sad sexually]: I thought it was going to be another one of those heavy scream songs. I'm surprised and really excited now. Who here pre-ordered the single?

2007-10-02 [lucent]: D:
I'm going to.

2007-10-02 [Whiskers]: I did; limited edition :3
Just, don't even ask who pre-orders the next Dir en grey item that comes out; just assume that I already have XD

2007-10-02 [1 sad sexually]: Yeah I ordered the limited edition too. No one mentioned it so I thought I'd ask. I ordered mine a while back.

2007-10-03 [Tyrant Calhoun]: -_-..Not fair. I have no chance of ordering Dir En Grey singles on line. I can't even get one D'espairs Ray cd out of my dad.

2007-10-03 [lucent]: D:
GOD!
I'm so jealous of you two.

2007-10-04 [Whiskers]: Why can't you order CDs online?

2007-10-04 [lucent]: I'm always broke.
:/
I have to pay for my car insurance, which sucks up all my money.

2007-10-04 [Tyrant Calhoun]: I don't have a credit card.

2007-10-05 [1 sad sexually]: eDIT:

Sign a Dir en grey Fan club in America Petition;

http://www.petitiononline.com/diruamer/petition.html

2007-10-20 [1 sad sexually]: I've heard the whole single. It's just amazing as Hell. x  x;

2007-10-22 [1 sad sexually]: For anyone interested, someone got their single early and has posted the scans of it on LJ.

http://community.livejournal.com/dir_en_grey/2107738.html

I do have the single to DL if anyone is curious to preview before purchasing. (Only the DOZING GREEN track, low quality. Sorry.)

2007-10-22 [1 sad sexually]: dozing green lyrics

Mesmerized by those eyes with bugs crawling on them, my breathing stops
My heart calms itself
The refreshing sun mixes in with sound of the rain

My slashed heart dances, and i question in vain
The white voise, the leaking of the breath in the sun

The obscene exposure of the wound
Dissapears into nothing, the wind of dogma
Your melting heart

The dark morning, echoing goodbye

My slashed heart dances, and i question in vain
I just want to be alone right now

A single season of spring, even the tearful neck and you crawling the earth

Love Me

Abandon Hope

2007-10-27 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: Dozing Green is addictive! I'm not too big on the remake of Hydra though. But ASOM is really good live!

It's amazing that they released this when they're so busy touring...*wishes they'd come back to the U.S*

2007-10-27 [MadHatress]: yes, back to the US with Diru.....*Daydreaming of possible, future concert*

2007-10-27 [1 sad sexually]: Sadly it probably won't be until next year they come back. x  x;; I really like the Hydra 666 remake. And the Dozing PV is amazing.

2007-10-31 [1 sad sexually]: I'm sure you guys know, Diru is releasing two CDs, DECADE 1998-2002, 2003-2007.

2007-10-31 [MadHatress]: AH! i know now....

2007-10-31 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: I never thought they'd make a best of. Not sure how I feel about it. Missa should be on there! I'd buy it if it had a bonus dvd of pvs... XD

2007-11-01 [MadHatress]: lol...me too!

2007-11-01 [1 sad sexually]: I remember Kaoru saying in an interview that 10 years was nothing special to them, so I wonder what changed.

Ahh, hopefully I'll be at the December live @ Shinkiba studio coast. I'm looking into air fare right now. o-o;;

2007-11-01 [MadHatress]: *is jealous nad needs a job to do the same*

2007-11-01 [1 sad sexually]: I'm broke ahha but my dad is helping me with this one as a late graduation present. x  x;;.

2007-11-01 [MadHatress]: how cool!

2007-11-03 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: Sweet but you won't know how good the seats will be...I guess they're chosen randomly.

2007-11-03 [MadHatress]: o.0 bummer

2007-11-03 [1 sad sexually]: Um, well, I'm not going through the special offer. So my tickets are pretty good. I went through yahoo Japan auctions, and booked the flight myself.

2007-12-25 [Whiskers]: I got the DECADE CDs in the mail today, as well as my physical copy of six Ugly. I'm so happy :3
And they sound great

2007-12-25 [Fake smiles and Bittersweet kisses]: awww no fair tyler >.<

2007-12-25 [MadHatress]: V_V yeah, lucky duck...

^^ merry christmas (holidays, w/e)

2007-12-27 [Whiskers]: oh yeh :3

2008-01-10 [1 sad sexually]: Kyo's message at the Christmas live;

“This year, at the live today there were 121*.
As for me~, I’ve had 99 days overseas.
What~ I don‘t understand what passed through me, if the tour ended there would be another tour~.
The me that tours nonstop will without fail go on another tour. When it seems like an unending year**.
It’s a sad thing……… Not having a live for a while.
But, because we’re making the best album you’ll have to wait.
Because I’ve already said it once. Because we’re making the most awesome album.
You’ll have to wait.”
“Damn boys! Are you being good!!!”
“Damn girls!!” etc

Kyo MC “Even though it’s the 25th I wont spoil you guys. Merry fucking Christmas!”



=B I didn't do the translation, I couldn't find the original Japanese text for it. But he's hinting at a new album coming up soon.

2008-01-10 [MadHatress]: ^_^ yay, can't wait...(if that's what's going to happen)

2008-01-10 [Tyrant Calhoun]: Me either!!^__^

2008-02-03 [Whiskers]: Well, I finally updated the DECADE 1998-2002 and DECADE 2003-2007 pages, as well as adding some new pages to the Dir en grey Setlists page :3

2008-02-03 [MadHatress]: ^^ lol

2008-02-04 [Tyrant Calhoun]: Soo, I know it has nothing to do with Deg...but anybody catching the Taste of Chaos tour this year?
((D'espairs Ray! WOOT))

2008-02-09 [Whiskers]: Not a D'esapris Ray fan or MUCC fan at all.

2008-02-09 [Fake smiles and Bittersweet kisses]: im going!!!! XD

2008-02-09 [MadHatress]: lucky...v_v

^^ guess who's birthday is in 9 days!?!?!!?!

2008-02-09 [Fake smiles and Bittersweet kisses]: KYO!!!!!

2008-02-09 [Whiskers]: It's getting closer to the 1-year anniversary of me seeing Dir en grey in LA and San Francisco :3

2008-02-09 [MadHatress]: It's Kyo in 8 days and Kaoru in 9

kool!

2008-04-06 [MadHatress]: Y-Y happy late b-days to Kyo, Kaoru and shinya (I think)

2008-04-13 [Whiskers]: Pssst...I'm working on something big for this wiki. I can't tell anyone what it is yet, but, once it's unveiled, you'll all love me.

2008-04-13 [Fake smiles and Bittersweet kisses]: but we already love you lol

2008-04-13 [MadHatress]: ^_^ as if we don't already, lol

2008-04-13 [Whiskers]: Yeah...I do way too much shit for this wiki XD
Oh, one thing I did was add live information to each of the albums' pages, like how many times each song has been played, etc.

2008-05-06 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: So Diru played hide's memorial(No audio rip yet) Anyone seen the new pics? Kyo's got a new tat and Die's back to being a living skeleton...with a pony tail...that guy makes me worry...he's skinnier than Shinya!
Anyway I'm imagining great things for the new album...it's just a feeling though.

2008-05-06 [MadHatress]: >.< no!! but I wanna see......*whimpers*

2008-05-07 [Whiskers]: They've been playing two new songs on their tour: one is a ballad, and one has been described as starting out like a hip-hop song with Kyo rapping. No joke. :|

2008-05-08 [MadHatress]: oh dear god...lol
I guess it's good, since it's a little tricky for Kyo to sound shitty (to me atleast)

2008-05-08 [Tyrant Calhoun]: 0.0 I think it's sadly easy for him to sound shitty live.

2008-05-08 [Fake smiles and Bittersweet kisses]: especially since they have been doing so many lives without a real break

2008-05-08 [MadHatress]: *not listening*

2008-05-08 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: RappingXD
So looking foward to it!!!
They always do something interesting it's why I love them!
I want more engrish....yeah.

2008-05-08 [MadHatress]: xD
engrish...so MEAN!! lol

2008-05-09 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: I know right. Tell me you don't love it though!

2008-05-09 [MadHatress]: it is funny at times, yes...

2008-05-09 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: XD Misheard lyrics=epic win

2008-05-09 [Tyrant Calhoun]: I know!! You have heard when Kyo started saying "Jesus cow" right?

2008-05-09 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: 0_0 You heard it too!!! Yeah he repeats it like 50X in Jesus Christ R'n R! Withering to death is full of the engrish.

2008-05-09 [Whiskers]: I dislike the "engrish" and here's why: part of me doesn't WANT to know what Kyo's saying offhand; it's easier for me to focus on the other members when he sings in Japanese, and I feel more of an emotional connection with the songs than a literal one. Also, for the most part, when Kyo sings in English, he's yelling it, and it's a phrase that is very blatant and (sorry to say) stupid-sounding, examples being "I'll rape your daughter on your grave," "one day I will fuck your parents," "DEAD BORN," and "I will die in a world of lies and deceits." The only songs offhand that I love and he screams garbled English in are RYOUJOKU NO AME, THE FATAL BELIEVER, DISABLED COMPLEXES, and DOZING GREEN; the rest are for the most part so-so to me.

2008-05-09 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: Anybody checked out the new Kerrang? It's got a pretty good articule on the history of jrock. Starring Dir en grey of course.

2008-05-09 [MadHatress]: it's more like 'Jezush crie' I don't hear cow. :\

I'm just a fan girl I guess, because I like it no matter what the heck he's saying, lol

2008-05-09 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: Well not all the engrish is bad for example Dead Tree 'no one wants the present' is a fav verse of mine...

2008-05-09 [Whiskers]: Oh XD
I dig for meaning in all of their songs

2008-05-09 [MadHatress]: yeah, I can make out 'one day i will fuc your parents' in CLEVER SLEAZIOD and 'let's put an end to the final' obviously, in THE FINAL

same here

2008-05-09 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: I really like finding subtitled videos of their preformances to go "oh wow...so thats what he's saying!" It makes the music more meaningful to me(even though Kyo's voice conveys a lot)... Check out this site for some really good subbed vids http://cries.nani-kore.net/ I love their performance of Mushi.

2008-05-12 [Tyrant Calhoun]: Which version of Jesus Christ R&R were you listening to? Cus it was definitely Jesus Cow! lol

2008-05-12 [MadHatress]: I'm SO downloading some of these vids, lol
I have the 'Withering to Death' CD, I was listening to it when we started talking about that line, lol

2008-05-14 [Whiskers]: It sounds more like "Jesus Chri" to me; like he just forgot the "st" part at the end.

2008-05-14 [MadHatress]: yup...

2008-05-14 [Whiskers]: http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=96488

2008-05-15 [MadHatress]: I went to that and DL'ed the vids, but I can't get them on iTunes...?

2008-05-24 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: You have to convert them if you want them for itunes...they're avi format. Download Videora iPod Converter, tis what I use to convert video.

2008-05-24 [MadHatress]: I can add AVI's to iTunes no prob....i just can't get iTunes to find the file...:\

2008-05-24 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: Huh why not just directly import it?

2008-05-24 [MadHatress]: I tried

2008-05-25 [Whiskers]: http://vixy.net/

2008-05-25 [MadHatress]: suhweetness...lol

2008-06-10 [Whiskers]: New Japan tour in August: TOUR08 The Rose Trims Again

2008-06-13 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: New single!!! Glass skin comes out Sept. 10th. Epic title huh? Wondering if the date has some signifigance...

2008-06-13 [MadHatress]: i dunno....good question.

2008-06-17 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: I'd guess yes...sept. 11th and all that...

2008-06-18 [Whiskers]: Um... no XD
Mindless Self Indulgence released their DVD "Our Pain Your Gain" and it had nothing to do with the attacks on September 11th

2008-06-18 [MadHatress]: I agree, but still
the title has an eerie relevance

2008-06-19 [Whiskers]: I don't think so

2008-06-21 [Whiskers]: Check out GLASS SKIN and Dir en grey's Seventh Album

2008-06-25 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: shrug so in other news kerrang awards are upon us again...Dir en grey's myspace asked the fans to vote them best international band...only prelims right now but still. Personally I'm thinking Tokio Hotel is going to dominate best international band...their fans are nuts...I like them but seriously, tokiofans=scary. I'll still vote for Diru though! So who do you think is going to win?

2008-06-25 [MadHatress]: hopefully Diru, but since TokioHotel gets MTV play, they might...*cant say it: dies*

2008-06-25 [Fake smiles and Bittersweet kisses]: lol hey im not that scary and i love tokio hotel

2008-06-25 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: XD Not all fans but the younger ones...yeah...12 year olds who want to sleep with Tom and think Bill's gay...He's not gay just really pretty...Imindenial...
I wish that FNmtv would play Dir en grey that would be epic...XD

2008-06-25 [Whiskers]: I really dislike Tokio Hotel, and hate how now everyone's getting into them, even though they've been around for at least a few years

2008-06-25 [MadHatress]: i do too, lol

I'm not a big fan, but they have a few good songs...DeG is a lot better by any standard

2008-07-03 [Whiskers]: Everybody, go to GLASS SKIN to see what the tracklisting is. I'm sure you'll all be pleasantly surprised.

2008-07-03 [MadHatress]: I am well surprised

2008-07-07 [Whiskers]: Make sure to go to GLASS SKIN to see the newly released artwork for the single.

2008-08-01 [Whiskers]: New album, guys!
http://direngrey.co.jp/english/e-uroboros.html

UROBOROS

2008-08-01 [Yew R NOT a Unike $now-flak]: Their 7th album...that to me is way impressive... and the line up is still the same after so many years!
Uroboros is the snake eating its own tail...for alchemy. I guess it ties in with the albums concepts, religion...ect. It's like Dir en grey are making a circle or something and they're remastering old songs so that fits in. Can't wait!

It pisses me off that the deluxe edition is $120...thats way too steep in my opinion. But if one band could get away with something like that it'd be Dir en grey...Japanese fans are really loyal and buy singles. I wonder what makes it that expensive or maybe Dir en grey are getting greedy?..like D.T.
I haven't bought a cd for what seems like forever...

2008-08-01 [MadHatress]: and supposedly its gonna be a lot darker than the older tracks.

*sigh* the economy is getting greedy...maybe it's just kick-ass? lol

2008-08-05 [Whiskers]: I pre-ordered the 2-CD Limited Edition today

2008-08-05 [MadHatress]: lucky...lol

2008-08-05 [Whiskers]: You have to realize that I get the limited edition of everything Dir en grey releases XD

2008-08-05 [MadHatress]: so I've noticed, lol
but you're still lucky, to me

2008-08-07 [Whiskers]: Why can't you order any of their stuff?

2008-08-07 [MadHatress]: Because I'm broke, lol

2008-08-07 [Whiskers]: Oh >.>

2008-08-07 [MadHatress]: yeah...
I mean, I have money now, but I have to buy uniform stuff for school

2008-08-07 [Fake smiles and Bittersweet kisses]: haha im so happy i graduated last year ^_^

2008-08-07 [Whiskers]: I've never been to a school that required you to wear a uniform

2008-08-07 [MadHatress]: you're lucky Nicole...I graduate this year

It's for Vocational school; I'm going to a Pharmeceutical tech. school and high school
