from kyotaku: DIR EN GREY twitter 2018.04.19 新木場2日目！ 今日は晴れて暖かいですね。TOUR18 真世界も3本目！ バックステージの様子も初日の久しぶりな感覚から徐々にTOURモードになってきました。昨年4本のTOURを行っていたのに、やはり感覚は抜けていくものですね。まだ続く真世界。今後このTOURがどの様に変化していくのか楽しみです！高林 The second day at Shinkiba! Today we have nice weather and it’s nice. It’s already the 3rd show of TOUR18 Shinsekai! The atmosphere backstage also became tour mode from the day one. Even so we had 4 tours last year, that feeling leaves you. Shinsekai continues. I’m looking forward to how will this tour develop!

There was less ‘I’ll shove you out of my way to the front’ and 'more let’s enjoy this together’, at least around me, but I was standing at exactly the same area as yesterday 😁 Kyo wore a huge shirt with 'wave’ print, Adidas tracksuit pants tucked in white Balenciaga socks amd trainers. His hair was not styled today, but it’s still mint green. He wore stronger make up than yesterday - dark eyeshadow that made his white lenses stand out more. Did Shinya wear his custom made white Madaraningen dress??? Die’s hair was sleek on one side. Toshiya wore the artist photo outfit again. Kaoru’s hair was fluffier? Usually there’s a some very quiet background sound for longer breaks between songs, but this time after DIABOLOS the track was louder? Favourite moment - Kyo shouting 'kakattekoi!!!!!’ without the microphone before Utafumi. After encore Kyo went back to the drum stand and he came back to the edge of the scene wearing the hood towel. After splashing fans with water and throwing the bottle (s?) to fans he wiped his face in the towel and threw it to fans Then he did the 'horn’ pointing (but he points with index and tiny finger and moves them like they’re rabbit ears 😁) he waved us goodbye. Other members were throwing stuff as usual but because of the chaos that happened under the stage with the towel I didn’t see much after Kyo left 😂 ==============================================

Yup, the person I got these from told me that they would have to ask all other members first before they could share them with me. And they obviously won't do that. And even if they did, I'm preeeetty sure they'd ask me not to share them further anyway. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So apparently, these songs do exist, or at least 04 and 05 do. Don't know about 静寂, but it's also said to be the SE for Gesshoku's live VHS, so huh... There are also some more, that would probably be visnu songs then: neo-nazis, 風の無い処へ, sabbat, slave, mania, end and an unnamed ballad. Along with the 真紅 tape I earlier posted. Of course all these songs are 100% off the internet And three VHS tapes that won't ever see the light of the day:

It's not that hard to remember lyrics, especially considering they played the song last year already^^

Ranunculus approximate lyrics. Forum won't let me insert the actual pictures for whatever reason. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Da5xoaTU8AAesWn.jpg https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Da5xoaRU8AAJzqj.jpg

This one? afaik there are only two new songs, now five? From kyotaku: New song / ‘Cone’ It starts fast and heavy, it’s quite melodic. Kyo was half singing half shouting, the speed changed few times. I remember cones the most from the video, but there were also a crown of thorns? I think this was what Kyo wore for his artist photo. New song / 'PUNK IS NOT DEAD’. It is also a medium~fast and melodic song, very catchy! It finished kind of abruptly? There were some parts were Kyo sang higher, little bit of shouting. The video had footage of many punks with mohawks and various slogans like 'punk is not dead’, 'go mad’ etc. It also showed an inside of the train station, was it London Underground? It looked vaguely familiar. New song / Ranunculus I was so excited when the first notes started playing! They definitely developed it more, it felt like it had more detail (according to my memory, it was a long time since I heard it!). I felt like they added more guitars and the melody in the beginning started with electronic notes with piano joining (was it just piano before? I can’t remember). It is a lovely ballad, very sad but feels strong at the same time. The lyrics of the song were displayed on the screen, other images were trees, sunset and fire?

There won't be a special version of GAUZE, just the package.

It makes sense, though: There are only two albums left, but four spines. So they make one for TOUR14, and the other... hmm... I wonder if they have thought this through...

I... am not sure. What I did misunderstand is that they sell the entire series as a box-set. It will be literally only a box. But I'm not sure about the TOUR14 DVD, because it says 『TOUR14 PSYCHONNECT -mode of “GAUZE”?-』は、コンプリートBOX専用パッケージのみ同封致します。ディスクは付属されませんので、予めご了承ください。= "TOUR 14 PSYCHONNECT - mode of" GAUZE "? -" will be enclosed only for the complete BOX package only. Disk is not included, so please be forewarned. So they don't include the TOUR14 disc, but... what? The package? Edit: There, corrected it.

Well nobody knows how the song sounds like because there are no samples yet... or are there? No but srsly, it was 100% one of the three songs they played, and my bet goes to Ranunculus, since that's the song they already played back in 2017.

Instagram content from/about the tour:

How do you know that the new single wasn't played?

I will add a proper translation when it's available. DIR EN GREY will release the last two sets of their discography-spanning tour TOUR16-17 FROM DEPRESSION TO ________, mode of MACABRE and mode of Withering to death., in June 2018. As usual, they come as DVD or Blu-ray and for a knot members only. They will also release a storage box for the entire series (the spines of the seven releases make up a picture), those who buy it will receive a special version of the 7th a knot-release's package and a TOUR16-17 documentary (NOT the TOUR14 release itself, only a special package for it, with the spine that matches the other releases, I assume). ●13th ｢a knot｣LIMITED Blu-ray & DVD 『TOUR16-17 FROM DEPRESSION TO ________ [mode of MACABRE]』 1枚組 (Blu-ray) SK-032-D ￥7,000 (tax out) 1枚組 (DVD) SK-033-D ￥6,000 (tax out) ※特殊パッケージ仕様 Manufactured by sun-krad Co., Ltd.

I'm currently in contact with seine (ex-Visnu/Masquerade/Stella Maria/Haijin Kurobarazoku). I've had conversations with Western artists too (We Are the Ocean, Adept, Outline In Color, ...), but seine is the only Japanese artist who ever replied. Oh and Shinya saw my instagram message, but well... no idea if it was him or staff lol

You're two weeks late :x

...sooo yeah... didn't think it would happen so fast, but I snatched these two magazines:

Doesn't matter, it just doesn't make sense to me. Why does this thread even exist then? As a bait? Do people get off of doing something like that? "huehue I downvoted a random picture on a random website, that'll hurt him huehuehue". Some people on this forum must lead very sad lives.

I post here and people downvote lmao
