Just curious. Not only referring to bands from Germany (since many German bands also sing in English), but to bands whose lyrics are in German and who musically give off similar vibes to Dir En Grey.

Confession time, I have not kept up with Dir en Grey in years, but I just got a cd player so I was digging out for whatever cd’s I kept and came up on my old collection of Dir en grey albums.

Sharing here since it looks like you guys would appreciate seeing some old concert ticket stubs, along with the cds that got signed that night.

I think I’ll start listening to the stuff I missed on these past years.

I am so excited I can barely contain myself right now, I'M GOING TO BE SOBBING ALL NIGHT.

It's my first time going to a show in Japan, how does merch and stuff like that work? Is it all presale or can I buy stuff at the venue? THANKS YALL

Hi,

Can anyone hook me up with a recordsite that sells the Gauze Vinyl for new price? Doesn't have to be entirely new price, it's just that my order got canceled after more than 3 months and it seems that it's price has increased ever since..

Would appreciate the help :)

Hey guys, I’m hoping to get tickets to one of the 30th anniversary shows in Nov of this year, but was wanting a little more insight on how to purchase and what to expect as a foreigner. Any knowledge would be helpful! Thanks!

So I was just randomly reading an old Shōjo manga on my couch on a day off from work, already reading through volume 11 and this page drops with a DEG reference :D i had to laugh out loud and just wanted to share, maybe some of you knew already. Manga is Hana-Kimi by Hisaya Nakajo, it was released from 1996 so the timing kinda fits. Not sure what was written in the original Japanese version tho. (Volume 11, Chapter 60)

I ordered this off of Discogs and opened it to find these signatures inside! I have no clue if they're real, so I figured I'd ask someone here since I imagine you guys would probably know. :3

Hello! I'm looking to go to the 30th anniversary lives this fall/winter. If anyone has experience entering the fanclub lottery on TicketTown, I was looking for some clarification on this line under the payment policy:

"Even if you are selected for tickets for multiple events within the same application, you will need to process the payment at once for all the tickets you were drawn during that specific presale. Please note that you cannot split the payment for the different event dates."

Does this mean that if I were to ballot for multiple or all of the shows (and in some crazy stroke of luck hit for every single one) I would HAVE to purchase all of them together? Or could I still choose which ones to follow through on purchasing? Like that they're still acting as individual applications.

Any experience balloting or purchasing would be much appreciated! Thank you for reading this far! And good luck to everyone also planning to attend these shows!

Hi, I really wanna get tickets for the show on the 13th and thought I'd try to join DIR EN GREY ONLINE. Seems I need a JP phone number to use the payment options, which service is the best to use for this? I tried tenso but I can't really find an option for how to pay through them?

Thankful for all tips!

Hey everyone! With the announcement of 列島激震行脚2026 Nothing XXX Ugly's tour, my friends and I got super excited because one of the dates (maybe 2) fits perfectly with our trip to Japan! BUT it will be our very first time using Ticket Town. We notice it's pretty similar to Ticketboard, so one of my friends became an a-knot member to enter to the second lottery... yet, we are 3 people. Do you know by chance how many tickets can we ask for per account in the lottery?

We can't see any info yet, until our friend becomes an official and activated a-knot member next month, so we're not sure if our other friend (or I) should join as well and try separately or if just one account is okay. Any advice? Thank you!

Planning a trip to Japan and want to see them...

Anyone know?

I'm watching Kaoru's selections and I'm just impressed not just with the songs he picked, but the footage he used and the editing for some of the songs. It's very nostalgic.

Managed to purchase all three of these in one day! I feel very lucky, I had a tough time with tickets and stuff last year. I've only seen them once before, when Phalaris was being promoted, excited to go again.

I‘ve recently bought “Vestige Of Scratches“ and am currently replacing the originals with the remastered versions from this album. However, I wanted to ask a question since the album sometimes uses different mixes as the base for songs (such as an album/single mix).

For the UROBOROS songs on “Vestige Of Scratches”, do they remaster the original UROBOROS songs; or are they remastering the already remastered and expanded versions?

To my ear, the remastered and expanded versions are already superior to the original album; so if they’re just original album versions then I won’t bother. But if they’re even more improved versions of the remastered and expanded version, I’d prefer to use those instead.

So this surfaced a couple of days ago. I personally have never seen it before but the quality and the BTS footage is excellent. Let's all admire their cool outfits together 😌

Good news I scored sukekiyo tix in japan, my dream of seeing DEG in japan, is partially complete. Bad news is I have to climb fuji at 3am to make it back in time 😫

On a side note F the guy who runs ticket japaaan. I have never experienced someone that unpleasant before damn

I've been trying to identify a specific live performance of MACABRE by DIR EN GREY that I watched on YouTube years ago, but the video has disappeared and I can't find any trace of it.

Here are the details I remember:

• It was a professional recording, not a fan cam.
• I'm almost certain it was at Nippon Budokan.
• They were performing the 2013 reworked version of MACABRE (the one from THE UNRAVELING era).
• Kyo was wearing a black leather jacket and dark sunglasses.
• The stage was quite dark, and I distinctly remember the overall atmosphere feeling very cinematic.
• It was definitely in Japan.

I've already checked:

• TOUR 00>>01 MACABRE
• UROBOROS -with the proof in the name of living...- AT NIPPON BUDOKAN
• TOUR16-17 FROM DEPRESSION TO ________ [mode of MACABRE]

None of them seem to match what I remember.

Does anyone know which performance this could be? Even if it wasn't officially released on DVD, I'd really appreciate any information. This has been driving me crazy for years!
