It's surprisingly replaced Umbrella as my favorite song, which reigned from when the Six Ugly minialbum came out to when the saku single came out =D
I can't wait for my copy of the "code of Vulgar[ism]" tour DVD to get here >___<
Hopefully it'll be here within the next week @___@
I had to have first press, cause I get a nifty extra DVD~~~

i'd have to agree with you on the songs, and that totchi and shinya are awesome, but Kaoru and Die aren't average in my opinion. the stuff isn't hard, but they put their hearts into that music and kaoru's solos kick ***.Mori said:Um...honestly, Dir en Grey have lyrically (and musically) evolved to more of an alternative metal/punk band. The lyrics are >good<.
Suicide, social criticism, abortion, sexual abuse of children, incest, oh and lovesongs.
That kind of stuff's most of their songs about.
Personally, I like Drain Away, 24 Cylinders and Mushi.
Toshiya is an awesome bass player.
And Shinya a living drumming machine.
Otherwise, they are average (I can play the guitar stuff *g*), though Kyo has a very characteristic voice.
oh yeah ^_^ that's one of my favourites too ^_^Mr. Just-A-Guy said:You guys really should listen to the single released this year (2004/03/17) THE FINAL. I bet it's going to be in your top favorite Deg songs.
december said:I like raison detre and cage, which I find shocking because I don't like Dir en Grey's music all that much. I think Shinya has a lot to do with that.
Illaparatzo-sama said:How can anyone dislike Shinya's drumming o__o;;;
He's great. Or do you just dislike him as a person(somehow)?
december said:I don't know why I don't like Shinya. When I first saw a picture of them, the first thing I thought was "I don't like the skinny guy." I like all of Dir en Grey except Shinya. I dislike Shinya almost to the point of hate.
I don't like his drumming all that much. He's only impressed me with his drumming once and that was during the song Aoi Tsuki.
But of course, I'm one of those people's who believe there will never be another drummer as great as Yoshiki. Everyone else is just so-so compared to Yoshiki.
It's weird, I know, to just not like a person without a reason. But I really can't stand Shinya. I could like Dir en Grey a whole lot more if Shinya wasn't part of the band.
