You’re right it does say that, but it’s obviously not true for NoK. Maybe only certain parts were changed.

 

This sounds amazing. I’m loving the mathcore vibes on the second track. And 赫 sounds gorgeous.

 

Sound is amazing but lately , I want understand more about music industry.

I'm not sure why all these bands / solo artists uses always so  similar symbology:

 

or what about this? (English audio only )

 

[Seelentau 884]

Because those are some of the most (in)famous symbols in human history.

[Kelrya 145]

It’s just trying to be edgy or whatever. It’s just an aesthetic, they are not in any kind of cult or whatever lol.

[nekkichi 6043]

why do they keep paying that high-profile gaijin mastering clinja to work on their albums if the final production sounds like THE BOTTOM OF CHAOS by their no-budget ex-labelmates rentrer en soi

[kuyashii 124]

I know the last thing one should do when it comes to DeG (or Sukekiyo for that matter) is creating a impression of something just from the samples, but I'm not feeling this at all. Maybe keeping low expectations for it might surprise me when I go to the real thing since I recall not digging what I heard from Arche back when the 10 seconds samples were released. The one I liked the best from the samples was "Phenomenon" and then the track was one completely different thing altogether.

 

Just let me get something off my chest, the rap-ish parts of Value of Madness are cringey af.

 

Also, the drumbeat on "Devote My Life" could work well on a country song lol. 

[Manji 卍 743]

So,I guess this is what everyone including me expected,an accessible and fun album. Ningen and Utafumi finally feels like belongs to the right place. But there's something on Kyo's vocals, idk... Compared to DSS and Arche,his voice... I really don't know how to explain but it just feels different

Do we even know who produced and mastered this album yet?

[Saishu 1589]

Also that Cold Death 969 dude is literally all over every DEG video’s comment section. He’s that “they can do no wrong and Kyo is the ultimate vocalist” fan.

I love the production on The Bottom of Chaos

[Saishu 1589]

There was no production on Bottom of Chaos. Practically every song sounded different. 

 

DEG’s official YouTube channel just posted the shorter samples. The others were ripped from Tower Records.

Do you mean @Seelentau

[Seelentau 884]

Hey 😠

 

What's with the farting in the 10 sec. sample of Devote My Life?

Oh and there's something new in Utafumi Some background scream-word-thingy.

good for you, but you know they fucked it up when their own facebook stans are dragging it based on the samples alone:

 

[blacktooth 227]

I am ready to experience the destruction of existence as DIR EN GREY advances forward in human sensation. 

[emmny 4139]

For fuck’s sake, who are you talking about?

[suji 8317]

Guys, again, stay on topic.

I'm pretty sure it's Tue Madsen again? the mastermind behind recent releases by VK legends Bataar and aspiring indie sensation we're talking about here.

[geist 227]

The only thing I find disappointing about these samples is Kyo’s voice is layered to shit. It sounds like he has one or two extra voices mixed in, especially to help him with the higher parts. 

[Elazmus 1873]

This is all much better than I thought, Celebrate Empty Howls and Downfall are most exciting to me! The whole second half of the album is going in a cool direction...
