Kelrya 145 Posted October 29, 2018 Sure but they did DSS at Nippon Budokan and then Mode of DSS like 2 years later. I know they played some Missa and Six Ugly songs but I don’t think they played all of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rekzer 599 Posted October 29, 2018 I don't think they want to play all songs from Missa xD and wasn't the Mode of tours their way of celebrating their anniversary or something? They will do another Arche show eventually ( they did with Uroboros during the DSS era) but i doubt them or any of us really are in a hurry for that. Most of Arche was played during the Mode of tours anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saishu 1589 Posted October 30, 2018 Most (all?) of Six Ugly and some of Missa was played too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seelentau 884 Posted October 30, 2018 (edited) Original Karma, Aoitsuki and Byou""Shin were played in 2017, the others haven't been played in a looong time. "S" was played once in 2004, the others haven't been played since 2001 and original Kiri to Mayu was only ever played in 1997, from what I know. From six Ugly, they played all songs in 2016, except for children in 2017 and Byou""Shin not at all. :] Edited October 30, 2018 by Seelentau Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saishu 1589 Posted October 30, 2018 I’m sure it’s just me, but I feel like there isn’t that big of a distinction between the two Byo Shins other than the new one is heavier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelrya 145 Posted October 31, 2018 It has a different feel because of the loss of the vocal melody, same with the new Kigan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EvilHippy 142 Posted October 31, 2018 Original Byou Shin (and almost every song on Missa) bores me. Six Ugly version at least fun to listen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saishu 1589 Posted November 26, 2018 The promos for Vestige of Scratches had those weird animated shorts featuring creatures that represented the band. Also, I work with several Japanese people and none of them have even heard of Dir en grey. They’re mostly familiar with L’arc and X Japan though. 1 FOSCOR70 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kelrya 145 Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) Yeah my gf is Japanese but she mostly just listens to American pop music, although she had at least heard of DEG before we met. The only VK she listens to is L’arc and hide I think. I have one Japanese friend who listens to metal so he knows them but the rest of my Japanese friends have never heard of them. Strangely a lot of karaoke places in Japan have their music, I like going with a group of people and seeing their reaction to me singing Different Sense or something lol. I can try to translate that commercial later when I have time. Edited November 27, 2018 by Kelrya Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
