Dir en grey at Sonishpere!
Dir en grey to be at Sonisphere in the UK!
Quote from Karou interview: ?I?d never have thought that we would play a festival of this calibre! It is like a dream come true to be playing with such great bands at Sonisphere. Although we?re not back in the UK for a tour, we wanted to play this festival to give something back to the fans who were disappointed last year from our cancelled finale in London. We were really bummed ourselves to not play and are looking forward to playing a great show for all our fans. We?ll also think up something special for this show as a way to show them our appreciation for waiting for us to come back. As at any festival, we are excited about playing for people who have never seen us before, and I hope they will be able to enjoy our show with our unique stage performance. It?ll be something they?ve never seen before! It will be absolutely rewarding for us if they simply enjoy our performance.?

13 Years
Wow... it's been 13 years since Dir en grey was formed. Incredible just to think about, isn't it? How long, what all they've done in that time, and so much more. It's incredible how much they've accomplished and how long it has been. Keep on going, Dir en grey!
DORJE
Orchestrated Chaos was kind enough to film parts of their trip to the DORJE lives. They did a little interviewing and gave us a sense of what the entire trip was like for them. Click the video to enjoy it right along with them!

Kaoru's message to the fans, as translated by Nao on Orchestrated Chaos is as follows: "Best regards for this year as well! -Kaoru"
#2 on the Oricon!!!
This is about the single, "Hageshisa to, kono mune no naka de karamitsuita shakunetsu no yami", thanks to the people who bought it, it reached #2 on the Oricon Weekly Chart! This is the highest position in the history of DIR EN GREY, so we are happy!!!
This is due to this single and the Budokan being successfully advertised in different media outlets, but we are happy that we could appear on many and various media outlets.
Front Page and Back Page cover of "GiGS" and "CD Data" "BURRN!" that doesn't really feature Japanese artists "Ongaku to Hito" which we haven't appeared in a long time "ROCKIN'ON JAPAN" which was decided by their ardent/eager editor "Weekly Playboy" which we never ever imagined to be featured in. etc. It's wonderful that we were able to be featured in different media.
The very cooperative TV Asahi who we've announced as one of the main sponsors of Nihon Budoukan also did various things for us, we are also thankful that it immediately sold out.
Have you watched the "DIR EN GREY「TOUR09 ALL VISIBLE THINGS」FINAL～souzou kara kyoumei～"? It was completely filled with content from an interview revolving around the 9/15 Shinkiba STUDIO COAST, foreign tour videos, band introduction etc.
The one in charged of this Special Program, Mr. Yuudai Hirano said that after the broadcast there was a lot of good response and they were able to make a lot of suggestions to the network. They've promptly decided to rebroadcast it! If you feel inclined to please send tons of feedback to Fuji TV. We would be thankful if for the feedback of people who hasn't seen it (we want to see it, please have it on terrestrial tv, etc)!
TV Asahi, Fuji TV, MTV and including other broadcast networks, they all place importance in their customer's voices so I think that they would use everyone's feedback. So please it would make us happy if you would cooperate and bolster up DIR EN GREY.
Also, CD stores too, considering the recent condition that music is not selling much, there were a lot of times that we couldn't grasp the availability of the CD, the initial amount (order amount before the release) was set to the max but after the release, places where it sold out kept on appearing one after another. When purchasing it if possible please make a reservation. It's a tough world...
By the way, thanks to everyone for the past few years, DIR EN GREY's number of release has not gone down at all!!!
I've written several things, but thank you very much for everything!

So, in light of that, everyone, please request for DIR EN GREY to MTV Japan or Space Shower TV or VMC Channel so they can reach #1!

『激しさと、この胸の中で絡み付いた灼熱の闇』
2009.12.2 RELEASE
Since I don't know Japanese, I'll go for google translation. Seems to say: ?With violence, darkness in my heart burning hooked? will update this when I get something better.
Risu from OC says the romanization is: Hageshisa to, kono mune no naka de karamitsuita shakunetsu no yami
myvinushka translates it as: with violence, within this chest a scorching heat of darkness is coiled around
