God, mushi is a hell of a song every time. there's a couple of recorded live performances of it and almost every one of them is gutwrenching (one in particular stands out for being unnervingly calm). I remember this being one of my earliest introductions (on KZfaq) to Kyo's stage presence and the band's depth in their live performances. Absolutely incredible - thanks for the reaction man!

Im a new fan, and love seeing this old school dir en grey. Please please please do Zakuro.

This song saved my life. I'll forever appreciate Kyo for screaming for those that can't.

Kyo is RAW emotion, sadness, anger, everything. I'm glad to see people out there understanding Dir en Grey this good. They're some kind of beast not anybody can grasp.

This song brings me back to the time i was in a bad shape mentally and environmentally. (ps. i live a wonderful life now with my wife and 2 daughters and helping others live a wonderful life) But damn, that's good to hear again! Love this songs so much every sound made in this song just penetrates ones emotions.

Yo, i enjoy with you reactions and you commentaries about the instrumetals and the fact you read and find a interpretation of the lyrics. And yes, this song and Zakuro for Kyo is more personal than anyother Will you a full review (each songs of each album) of Dir en grey? Or just the most famous? Anyway, for the next time you can react probably to Dead tree from Tour 17-18

I got so lost in there.. I forgot to recommend this. It's another live, revisiting older material, but Kyo again just so close to the edge, dangerously close. It's a two song performance ending with Dead Tree. Vocal delivery is as much a part of the expression, and the two show Kyo descending into a very dark place. There's blood... Just a warning. It's powerful and up there with Mushi as a full immersive expression of the message. It's from kaya too, so there's subs, which I know you like. Oh, and I edit in the link because KZfaq seems to bury comments with links in them. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nNlmfr1kv8qddYU.html

I know I'm late af to this video, but I'd recommend Dir en grey - 24ko Cylinder since you enjoyed this one, it's deeply beautiful and haunting (recommend one of the older performances).

He inhabits it. This is what music is to me. Not pitch perfect. It's raw. Honestly, if you aren't in your music, why do it? But that's just me. Things like this inspire me deeply. And Kyo is just on a whole other level... Those screams... That's real pain.

Happy new year bro

u are the real one
