Mortal Downer

My collection has grown considerably this year haha

This guitar sure has some good vibes.
Die knows how to!

Alright,

I think I almost completed my DIR EN GREY Cd singles collection. Yet this is one of the few remaining that I still have to find somehow.

Can someone clarify why this one is so expensive?

It seems to be a realy rare one to find..

I tried CDJapan and it's Mercari search but no luck there..

Just a note here, I'm only looking for the regular version, not to start about the other 'deluxe' version, which is highly impossible to come by.

Can anyone help out on where to buy one?

Discogs seems to be the last place to look price-wise..

Cool video on WTD that I recently stumbled upon on youtube.

Another one take. SOme day I won't use zoom but I am lazy so not today. What song next?

Learned it over last few days. There's one not im too lazy to catch at end. Lol.

Hi, wondering if anyone can help me with a nerd question.

Context:

I'm struggling to discern between the Limited, and Regular editions of Feast of V Senses. According to Dir en grey's website, they both have the same product code [SK-011-D～SK-013-D].

I've come to the conclusion that mine must be the Regular edition because I don't have a photobook, and also the product says "8,800Y Tax in". The official DEG website only tells you the tax out prices, but I suspect my tax in price means it could only be the Regular Edition.

My question -

Are there any physical variations that make the Limited Edition different? I am aware there will be a photobook, but is that actually apart of the DVD box itself, or is the box otherwise identical apart from the tax in price?

(I tried to use Discogs, Mercari, Yahoo, DEG website, etc to do the research myself, but came up short).

Not a DEG song but it's absolutely beautiful. What are your thoughts?

I've been looking for this album out in used shops here and there for about 3 years, with no luck. Today I stumbles across the box set with 2 CDs, 1 DVD, 2 Vinyl, and art book! Finally I feel ready to deep-dive into this album! (I've listened to songs from it here and there, but not binged the album over and over like I usually do when I purchase it.)

Also WOW, I had no idea they collaborated with Wizardry Online! I'm a huge fan of the Wizardry series (I own the first Wizardry on Apple II and Wizardry 4 on PC-98, among others for example.) I remember when this game came out, I was in the process of moving to Japan so I couldn't really try it out. Maybe I'll mess with a private server, I wanna see what it's about!

I still need to come across The Insulated World and Arche, once I find those I'll have all the studio albums on CD!

Im making this post because Galaxy Broad Shop doesnt have a trustpilot or any sort of way to read feedback, which I wouldve liked before buying since their stuff is pretty expensive. I live in EU.

I bought 2 psychonnect 24 tshirts. Both are of quality and very well sewed. The designs are printed on vinyl, not on the cotton itself which sucks, but it still feels like quality and the vinyl print itself is bigger than other band tshirts which have tiny designs. Theyre XL size, but a very small XL, more like an L really, despite the product description saying sizes might be bigger than expected. Buy stuff at an extra size just in case.

Shipping to my country was around $17 US. The page says international shipping takes around 2 to 3 months, but it varies a little from country to country. My country was estimated to take around 3 months, not 2, but it still arrived at 2 months and 1 week. This will also vary from country to country, but I had to pay like $40 of customs at the post office, which was insane.

Packaging was immaculate, the best Ive received from an online clothing store. Each shirt came with a basic little deadly claris sticker.

Basically, shipping is great but incredibly expensive and shirts are high quality but vinyl print (Ive heard hoodies are even higher quality.)

Idk what it is about this song, the exact translation of this song translates to something like “ even though I’m hurt, even though I’ve been stained, i can still love from the bottom of my heart” and i feel like it’s the most profound feeling to exist.

Koko ni ai o truly hits me.

Hi everyone! Some of us have put together a petition regarding Cifer Studio’s involvement with DIR EN GREY, including concerns about AI-generated content, the use of fans’ posts, access to ｢a knot｣, and the way fans’ questions and criticism have been handled.
If you share these concerns, please consider reading and signing. You'll need to scroll down a bit for English text.

I'm curious to know if you listen to other bands. My go tos are Lorna Shore, Worm Shepherd, White Chapel, Shadow of Intent, Protest the Hero, and Muse. I guess I like the hardcore stuff! What do you like to listen to other than DEG?

I remember years ago when I was in high school age, limewire and ares p2p was a thing. I remember downloading Diru tracks all the time back then. There is one in particular that I've lost but still long to listen to again. It was a live cover of ' Precious ' by Luna Sea. The track was played so perfectly by the entire band. Does anyone know when they played this or on what VHS or DVD it might be found on ? Cheers.

It's my favorite cover art. What's yours?

The poster came with the preorder for the single.

👋 Howdy all, looking for feedback from folks who participated in past international travel packages for DEG Japan tours. I know this has been asked years ago, but specifically I'd like to hear what you 1) wished you'd known, 2) wished you'd done and 3) what was something that made your trip awesome. ✨

I am so lucky to have been picked!!!!!! this time and this is my bucket list trip for sure. I'm so excited I find myself breaking out my own little mini-mosh pit at random times during the day. Lol

Thank you! 🙇🙏🤘

I applied for 2 tickets the upcoming 30th anniversary tour in Tokyo Zepp Haneda and lost. :( It was through the general lottery on Tickettown. Are there any other options left to score tickets outside of Japan?

Hi all, I have something to ask.

If there one album that you can pick from their discography, in term of lyrics and melody, that's the most depressing/darkest/saddest, which album would you pick?

Thanks in advance.

My favorite songs are Vinushka, Glass Skin, and Kaishun. I feel as if Vinushka may be too long and the other two may not encompass the Dir En Grey sound to a first time listener.
