This is actually my favorite performance of Obscure since they actually wore the outfits from the music video. And I love how they have the video playing in the background as well.
Its funny how people think that Dir En Grey aren't as great as they used to be. They are just as popular and skillful as they were back in the Vulgar days, if not, even better than they were. Just because they have changed their style doesn't mean that they aren't incredible in skill and creation of music.
Shame they only performed this version from 2003-2008 when they slightly altered it to sound like the soon to come Lotus version but it still kept the original lyrics and melodies until 2011 when they started playing the Lotus version ever since
Dir en grey is *insert endless divine praises* past or present. Sheesh dude there is no old them or whatever.They keep evolving and awing the world but they still have their signature patented diru-style, sth no other rock/metal band has.Only thing I have to complain about is sth completely small: Kaoru's hair these days or for the past few years,I just wana chop em off- he reminds me of this disturbing creep that I had the luck to know but whatevs he's god-like and looks better than slash.
Absolutely the best live proformance of the song! It sounds alot like it does on the album which is nice the others I've seen alot is cut out or switched up .
dir en grey makes me want to start a band up finally and play a song at my school..but most people(like 85%) listen to hip-hop and pop..so if i did their heads would explode from listening to something awesome
I hope you made their heads explode, my school was the same and I performed some children of bodom songs, I hadn't discovered Dir En Grey back then unfortunately otherwise I wouldve definitely covered their songs too!
@Tekkame I agree with this. I used to really be into A7x and Atreyu. I really only listen to Japanese music now. I just personally like it so much better than American metal. I like the variety that Japanese bands have to offer. For example, I love how Dir en Grey has songs like this and Zan but also have songs like Yokan and Akuro no Oka.
You and me both. I was so close to seeing thier tour this year, but no... The open house for the college I want to go to has to be the same freakin day! Next time!
Diru dosent have a complete track playing in the backgrund, so its not like they're lipsynching or something, they just use samples for special sounds thats impossible to do live and so on and so on ; D
@RoxyTheEchidna Korn was my favorite band prior to discovering Japanese rock music. After J-Rock, even my favorite American bands seem somehow lacking an indescribeable x-factor.
We need to enjoy this while we can, Apparently you tube is going back and deleting all of Dir en Grey's video's {or most atleast} due to copyright issues....Thanks You Tube!! As if fans sharing their favorite bands videos affects the bands negatively. If anything it helps them.
@Skinyliny72 yer they have deffo got abit lazier, no offense when i say that but it did use to sound allot better + the sound tech adds in some of the effects " 1:51-2:08 which is a reverse vocal effect which makes them sound huger, they don't do any of that anymore. 2:57 with that scream that fades in they don't do that live anymore either
Marilyn Manson once traveled to a different dimension after eating some sushi laced with cocaine . When he got there he found a Japanese version of himself. His name was Kyo. When Manson was traveling back to reality, Kyo decided to tag along...
@Rosewithoutathorne naw buddy i know theirs the begining dark intro obscure but this one in the live is custom made for the live show i just wish i could find it thanks buddy =]
ahahah,,i think is normally when japanese people not pretty well good when speaking english..but i still cleary hear KYO sama said " IT'S SHOW TIME" even with his japanese english style XDD
I'm not making a fool out of myself, i am just making a clear statement, they are a good band don't get me wrong, some of the modern video's of this are good some are bad. P.S i am in a band and i have been doing vocals for many years, death metal vocals put allot more strain on your throat than this, hence why I always do vocal warmups to keep my voice healthy. I do allot of clean singing as well so yer

This is actually my favorite performance of Obscure since they actually wore the outfits from the music video. And I love how they have the video playing in the background as well.
I just love how it has the creepy vibes like the music video
My favourite is the Wacken 2007 version and then this one and then Budokan 2010
Damn... still watching this 13 years later. Time really does fly. Still such an amazing performance.
Best of vocalists I have had the honor to listen to.
この頃のObscure今更だけど初めて観たわ、クソかっこいい

I remember this song live. They opened with it when I saw them.
This is my favourite performance of all time!
Decade later this is still one of the best lives. 5 Day Blitz was insane when I was a high schooler
I want to see Kyo singing this actually; this version.
自決 Jiketsu especially today
Saw it in 2008 and it was amazing but I like the newer version as well
Shame they only performed this version from 2003-2008 when they slightly altered it to sound like the soon to come Lotus version but it still kept the original lyrics and melodies until 2011 when they started playing the Lotus version ever since
リアルタイムで追ってたワケでもなく京が歌詞変えたりアレンジしまくってるのに見慣れてしまっているからこんな原曲に忠実なのなんか違和感ww
いやかっこいいよ
😂
Kyô is my idol. I love old Diru.
最初から最後までかっけぇー
Love this version live!
AMAZING wow tysm for posting and shoutout to Dir en grey for being so f’in good

Oh god, this is amazing.

dir en grey makes me want to start a band up finally and play a song at my school..but most people(like 85%) listen to hip-hop and pop..so if i did their heads would explode from listening to something awesome
I hope you made their heads explode, my school was the same and I performed some children of bodom songs, I hadn't discovered Dir En Grey back then unfortunately otherwise I wouldve definitely covered their songs too!
BLOOD BABY & SACRIFICE! BLOOD BABY & SACRIFICE! BLOOD BABY & SACRIFICE! BLOOD BABY & SACRIFICE!!!

Sounds a lot like Coal Chamber too
Amazing. Enough said.
Fucking ace! Prob the closests rendition to the recording, also seems Toshiya has always played Obscure all vertical and korn styled :P
見た感じ誰もこのコメントしてないけど、地味に最後のところ歌詞ちょっとだけ間違えてる笑
でも京さんって、皆さんご存知の通りライブだと、即興で歌うこととかたまに歌詞変えて歌う時あるから特になんもは思わなかったけどね
You and me both. I was so close to seeing thier tour this year, but no... The open house for the college I want to go to has to be the same freakin day!
Next time!
It's ah showtime!!
hahaha a PISSED KITTY!! that was funny. i love Dir En Grey.. one of the best Visual Kei bands out there.
I love dir en grey and I understand japanees

It's a showtime!
自分の中でベストテイクのオブスキュアです
2010のオブスも最高でっせ
No wonder they used this song for an opening! Its so damn exhausting for Kyo! :O

@Fancherkr they're one of the most talented bands out there
i love this song! do you think a girl can cosplay as a diru member for halloween?
Diru dosent have a complete track playing in the backgrund, so its not like they're lipsynching or something, they just use samples for special sounds thats impossible to do live and so on and so on ; D
京の衣装カッケー
SE多いね
あとマイクもエフェクト入ってる？
How can ANYONE look that cool? :D
0:50 1:27 2:29 4:00
@RoxyTheEchidna Korn was my favorite band prior to discovering Japanese rock music. After J-Rock, even my favorite American bands seem somehow lacking an indescribeable x-factor.
Wow I hope you had a great time (:
We need to enjoy this while we can, Apparently you tube is going back and deleting all of Dir en Grey's video's {or most atleast} due to copyright issues....Thanks You Tube!! As if fans sharing their favorite bands videos affects the bands negatively.
If anything it helps them.
god i wouldn't like to wake up to him in the morning..
Gotta say...pretty comical with the 1911 effect. Dir en Grey silent movie!
衣装的にこの曲のためのliveって感じがするw
...perfect!
Best VK costume EVER!!!!!!!
my favorite song right now.
lol. it sucks though, because i can't sing along with it.
Epic preformance.
Nuff'' Said.
Their just awesome xD
YESSS
have you ever listened to The Gazette theyre pretty good but a little more pop but nonetheless has some great songs.
@Jammy192 i seriously hope diru come here again
💜💜🛐
@Skinyliny72
yer they have deffo got abit lazier, no offense when i say that but it did use to sound allot better + the sound tech adds in some of the effects " 1:51-2:08 which is a reverse vocal effect which makes them sound huger, they don't do any of that anymore. 2:57 with that scream that fades in they don't do that live anymore either
Okay this is my all time favorite song by them!!
yah the songs that i like alot are Burial Applicant, Filth In THe Beauty, Discharge, Taion, Silly God Disco, Hyena, and Carry?
ITS a SHOWTIME!!!
i wish to see them live D: but ima learn japanese first. hahh
@PinkDragon57
The singer is a guy and his name is Kyo.
T_T I dun liek looking at the backround...Dir En Grey is an awesome band but OMG The PV for Obscure scared the crap out of me.
Marilyn Manson once traveled to a different dimension after eating some sushi laced with cocaine . When he got there he found a Japanese version of himself. His name was Kyo. When Manson was traveling back to reality, Kyo decided to tag along...
whats the intro build up song while kyo says its showtime?? =]
hellz yea
@volleyballchampion I love it. Makes me giggle. :D
Awesome
@Rosewithoutathorne naw buddy i know theirs the begining dark intro obscure but this one in the live is custom made for the live show i just wish i could find it thanks buddy =]
me too :)
la mejor
@ABCD12321 The style of the song, maybe. But lyric and content wise, korn couldn't even think of something like this.
@steardoll omg whaaat? when were they here :/
amacing
How can someone enjoy this?? What kinda music would this be classified as anyways?
ahahah,,i think is normally when japanese people not pretty well good when speaking english..but i still cleary hear KYO sama said " IT'S SHOW TIME" even with his japanese english style XDD
Um they cover a lot of gnres, from Nu-Metal to Post Hardcore(early days), Metalcore, just straight metal, experimental metal and Alt Rock.
omg i want them to come to ireland so so bad :( anyone know if thats gona happen? :/
Um ok? Have you seen their recent live of akuro no oka?
I'm not making a fool out of myself, i am just making a clear statement, they are a good band don't get me wrong, some of the modern video's of this are good some are bad.
