    I really like this line “The whole band Dir en grey actually came to us from a different dimension to show us how the hell should art look like”

    They are very big in Japan. You don't play Nippon Budokan as many times as they have if you aren't famous. Outside Japan it's more of a cult following. Casual music fans that have heard of them dub Dir en grey "That weird Japanese band with the crazy guy" (exact words I've heard). You have to ease into Dir en grey. It also helps if you already have a grasp on music in general

    I am so glad to see someone react as positively as I do. I've been a fan of theirs for 17 years and I am really grateful of your comments. I feel like not everyone can understand how deep, complete and incredible their music is. Thank you.

    This, right here. This is how you should to react to dir en grey, as an experience, feeling the changes, the vibe of the instruments, the beauty in Kyo's voice.
    This is the best video reaction I ever saw in UA-cam. Loved

    I really enjoyed your reaction. Glad you commented on Shinya's amazing job on the drums here! The song was originally released in 2000 on their second full album of the same name. This is a rerecorded and extended version form 2013.
    Listening to this I am always amazed by how good the band still sounded with all of the problems they had during the time! Kyo had major vocal problems, Shinya played with several broken ribs for weeks, Toshiya had a dangerous ear infection and the days they weren't playing they spent travelling to the next venue. With how many operations and treatment Kyo had because of his voice during the last 20 years you would think it impossible that his voice just gets better and better, but it does.
    You should really take a look/lend an ear to his second band Sukekiyo which is even more experimental.
    Maybe start with "Elisabeth Addict" :

    or aftermath (which for me is like a gateway to an undiscovered underwater-world, incredibly, hauntingly beautiful):

    Have a great day!

    A fact that you should know is that the vocalist (Kyo) had voice problems because before he smoked, after a while it became more serious, around 2012 - 2013 he had to be hospitalized urgently and now he takes more care of his voice . That is why in some parts it is heard as if forcing the voice.
    I have always admired him for his ability to play with the voice and have a very good voice range, but his so theatrical attitude is really something to admire, and more live.
    I recommend that you check some song from your solo band, it's called "Sukekiyo". So I also recommend the song "Elissabeth Addict" to start
    Very good reaction as always.

      @poetryonplastic 6 років тому +1

      He had vocal surgery to remove nodes. Nodes are cause by callouses on the vocal cords from pushing your voice too far/screaming in unhealthy ways. Smoking probably didn't help, but vocal nodes are not caused by smoking.

      @gjrloiouyfchicfhhudrgky3470 6 років тому

      Kyo actually stopped smoking around 2004 I think. Told band members that this band will be a non-smoking band for better live performance. Members didn't want to stop so they decided to kiss the crap out of Kyo until he gave up and allowed others to smoke lol.

    Great reaction, JohnG! I had so much fun. I'm glad you came back to Dir en grey. I agree with everything you and Rabid Black said on this. I am totally ok with complicated music in general. I think i taught myself how to appreciate it with the time being. But still not everyone would be able to like it.

  • @harindarvati2231
    @harindarvati2231 6 років тому +3

    They use 4 different guitars in this song, if you didnt realize 😂😂
    The drumer have a good classical taste i think, and the bass solo also killing..
    Actually im cryin for the first time i hear this version, this is one of their best, and one of the best music i ever hear in my live.
    And the vocalist, yeah the vocalist, is not human its voice machine and music actor, the best lyricist who can really express his song , and his facial expressions are soo..soooooooo..*speechless T.T) and during this performance he is sick and hospitalized right after the concert. So the next day concerts are canceled. But for my experience listening to them, this concert is one of their best performance.
    I like this band from 2010 till now, and i think 2013-14 are their golden years..
    Again..thankyou for react this :)
    maybe you should react one of the Magma or Bahaus songs :p

    Macabre is a crazy good song that always evolves, they played a slightly different version in 2017 with another amazing videography. I am happy you enjoyed the many layers of the song :)
    one thing you pointed out and that I appreciate in Japan: people waited for the music to end until they cheered. Fans from abroad, please be considerate and do not interrupt the band with cheering/screaming/singing especially not during solos... It really ruins the atmosphere for great pieces like macabre..
