General DIR EN GREY new single "SUSTAIN THE UNTRUTH" release

[Mind of the sun 71]

How are we suppose to sustain the untruth with these 20 secounds teasers.

[Jigsaw9 6783]

LMAO I love how they chose the exact same snippet like in the previous teaser... only now we have video too! 8D

[Pretsy 1343]

Gotta dig that "glamorous gasmask look" of Toshiya's tbqh

 

Other than that, almost off-topic thing I would like to discuss is the fate of Unraveling/Rinkaku PVs? I am gonna bet that both Rinkaku (based on TABULA RASA performance) and this new PV won't have any sort of "freaky shit" going on. Instead of "we should wait for the next PV dvd", I would like to hear people who actually bothered to ASK SUN-KRAD (or anyone affiliated with DEG staff) about this matter.

 

Aren't PVs supposed to be streamed so that promotion would boost up? I am not really familiar with the way how certain promotion tricks would affect the sales, so yeah...

Generally, that's the idea. But most deg pvs aren't actually shown on tv or anything, so that line of thought falls flat. I'd say that deg's PVs are more "music videos" than "promotional videos". They're there so the guys can express their artistic stuff or whatever.

[ShanethVarosa 1209]

I'm going to be here for this, idec. This is going to be great.

[Augie1995 325]

Yep, waiting for this now

[engrey97 0]

Nothing yet? D=
This awaiting is killing me.

[greatest_dane 15]

It doesn't come out for another week and a half...

[Jigsaw9 6783]

Longer PV preview and samples from the deluxe bonus DVD:

 

 

 

edit: Here's an extra vid, from the recording sessions:

 

[Wicked Teletubby 528]

sounds sooo good.

[TheStoic 176]

This teaser sounds nothing short of stellar.  The trippy guitar effects in the verses, the sinister growls, and the rising chorus come together nicely. A mid-tempo track that keeps enough variety in the way the electronic effects are added and really has a cool, funky vibe.

 

Can't wait for this.  Comes out on my Birthday - what a nice present.

[Tokage 5930]

That intro section sounds sort of funky.. I dig it.

[Pretsy 1343]

On par with Rinkaku and much better than Unraveling (even though it's hard to say anything yet tbh)...

[Bear 1817]

So it's yet another extremely good song then? Both Rinkaku and The Unraveling were excellent songs, so if this is on par with those I'll be extremely happy.

[enyx 903]

I really was not prepared for how good that sounded, wow.

[relentless 254]

I don't like the nu-metal influence; but it sounds pretty good.

[nullmoon 784]

This sounds incredible. The scream before the chorus is spine chilling.

[Daisuke 20]

Wooo, love it, 1 week only.

[Zeus 7997]

Not bad Diru, not bad.

[keyinjpop 89]

The one minute preview sounds promising.

[Furik 832]

Holy fuck. It sounds like everything I loved from them before they went all creepy with Uroboros and DSS.

[Kaye 296]

This sounds way better than expected. Can't wait till the full thing's out.

[Prophet 168]

I swear that preview sends shivers down my spine.

[Crube 585]

Holy fuck. It sounds like everything I loved from them before they went all creepy with Uroboros and DSS.

Creepy? In what sense? I thought the devouring of fruit that resembled the heads of infants to be somewhat creepy.

[Wicked Teletubby 528]

I guess he means the whole thing went really creepy. with guitar tuning and Touru's vocals going down and under and stuff.
